i looked up brad's post history like a psycho and saw something from a couple weeks ago referencing a hiatus from ilx. but shakey hasn't posted since early december
― flappy bird, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:16 (eight years ago)
i knew it had been a while, but i thought for sure i had seen stuff from him since then? hope he's doing alright.
― i remember the corned beef of my childhood (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:18 (eight years ago)
he seemed to be okay, he posted on the metal poll results thread iirc. obv what was said to him was a despicably low blow and i don't blame him for wanting to disengage for a bit, especially considering i don't think the other poster is going away forever or anything and certainly afaik never apologized or retracted.

Had branwell even posted here at all in months before they charged in to that thread with a fresh steaming take?
― scotti pruitti (wins), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:25 (eight years ago)
isolated posts but wasn't posting regularly
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:34 (eight years ago)
it's especially reprehensible, given Branwell's long insistence that everyone in the world ought to know Branwell's posting history and preference for address, that they said those things to Brad in that very thread.
― Haribo Hancock (sic), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:46 (eight years ago)
I miss him. Do think he'll be back though.
I do really wonder about Shakey, he's been away for a long time all of a sudden.

btw fp'd flappy for introducing this shit into the thread that's specifically for the opposite of this shit
― scotti pruitti (wins), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 17:51 (eight years ago)
is there a thread for 'where has so and so poster gone'? sorry i was genuinely curious about brad & shakey

thank u
― flappy bird, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:04 (eight years ago)
Yeah, sometimes it makes sense when a poster has been missing to wonder if they re-registered with a new handle.
― how's life, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:04 (eight years ago)
I've been here for awhile now and yet still not so good at following those developments.

xp is that a hint?
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:09 (eight years ago)
No, no. I was just saying that I understand why flappy bird was posting in this, the wrong thread for what he was posting.
― how's life, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:10 (eight years ago)
same. sometimes years go by before i realize that i've been talking to a different version of someone that i thought left years ago!
― i remember the corned beef of my childhood (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:18 (eight years ago)
so many years. god i suck at typing and thinking today
ive always wondered if flappy bird used to go by another name
― gr8080, Wednesday, 21 February 2018 18:27 (eight years ago)
former name was offensive to brits iirc.

branwell has always been entirely too ready to take inflicted wrongs of any shape or size as a free pass to be giant asshole

let's ask, it's a US Pol thread tradition ime
― rob, Thursday, 25 October 2018 17:12 (seven years ago)
has to be an old poster or a lurker who's really absorbed ilx posting rhythm/style
― |Restore| |Restart| |Quit| (Doctor Casino), Thursday, 25 October 2018 17:14 (seven years ago)
I figured you could train an Eliza to post on the pol thread just by feeding it the last 24, but he started on ILM

what we really need is a thread for the top 200 ilx posters least likely to be nakh projects ...
― sarahell, Monday, 31 December 2018 07:11 (seven years ago)
because to consider everything a project of our dearly departed colleague, some would be egregious insults to his oeuvre

no that is a good point
― topical mlady (darraghmac), Monday, 31 December 2018 11:01 (seven years ago)
how does one determine if a poster is a "nakh project"also, what is a "nakh project"?
