There was an old amateurist post on a recently bumped bluegrass thread that I read the other day that was very well-written and informative
― Dusty Benelux (jim in vancouver), Saturday, 20 February 2021 22:01 (three years ago) link
huh. amateurist is someone I've sort of associated as a lifer with the site whose posts I always enjoyed, and I didn't realize his last post was in Feb 2017. very early into the Trump era, which I seem to recall was doing a number on his sanity.

Yes to all of these. Aside from a couple posts late last year that I'd missed, Eliza D. has been MIA for a while.And fucken shakey, wth

Miss Shakey. Was not a smart thread that he started, but doesn't erase his career here

I guess Tombot's only been on mute a month but it seems like longer.
― The Mandolinrainian (Old Lunch), Sunday, 21 February 2021 17:15 (three years ago) link
Yes, miss all three, though I wonder if Shakey is around somewhere.
― Rocky Thee Stallion (PBKR), Sunday, 21 February 2021 17:16 (three years ago) link
xp and Tombot.
Even I miss tombot, and we spent half our time bickering.

Shakey is fine but I don’t think he’s coming back.

Eliza's still active on social media, seems to be doing well.

True. As long as you're not on, say, Twitter.

I think flopson might also be confusing two very different posters

Id presumed flopson was referencing rush, unless im confusing names myself (apols if so)

oops i was referring to most recent revive of should ilxors be tempbanned for taking their beefs to other social media? (twitter/fbook/myspace/etc)? and thought that's who the post below above was in ref to

rushomancy is currently named Kate, and has only posted once since leaving six months ago, to say
Impeach Biden.
on election day.

I think I finally understand why j. left, seeing how they were treated on the free speech thread, but I wish they were still here. I don't know their identity on social media, if someone does, please send me an ilxmail so I can follow them there.

Anyone know what's up with Hadrian? Noticed he hasn't posted in almost a month. I guess I can shoot him an email.
― it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Monday, 19 April 2021 15:39 (three years ago) link
he's building a wall, every day it's getting higher

Shot Hadrian an email, no response. We'd only had friendly interactions on here and through email. Anyone else?
― it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Thursday, 29 April 2021 16:42 (three years ago) link
Maybe I'll text! I have his number.
― it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Thursday, 29 April 2021 16:44 (three years ago) link
I've gotten to know Hadrian a bit off-board and e-mailed him three or four weeks ago--said he's just generally not having a great year, but he hoped to be back eventually.
― clemenza, Thursday, 29 April 2021 16:50 (three years ago) link
Thanks clemenza!

i'd hate to think he got chased off by the small coterie of haters who dumped on him pretty hard for a while because he refused to condemn French laws against religious garb in schools as virulently as they thought was required. their rhetoric got very personal and nasty.
