SE was banned IIRC for excessive use of trolling, no surprise there.

Surprised reading Saf was banned though - always thought something had ticked him off. Here's to Saf:  :banana: :banana: :bang: :bounce: :banana:

Wasn't Saf a racist too? I remember a post or two of his back in the day that put me off this place for a while.

His posts could have been interpreted in many ways, hard to tell what he was trying to convey sometimes.   Can't remember specifically what got him kicked off  :think:
I thought it was a very inappropriate picture that got him banned? I didn't see it, but remember something like that was said at the time.

I couldn't understand half his posts so I have no idea if they were inappropriate :rofl:

Really? I don't remember that.

I do miss Barrie though.

Saf was racist?  I couldn't tell what he was saying half the time, but I never got that impression.
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

Where are you?

Maybe he bought a Chrysler Sebring and it made him so bored he's still asleep behind the wheel in his parking garage...

With the tone in here recently, I think the list of missing persons is getting bigger than those still active unfortunately.

ltruong is apparently gone, he was here at least from 2016.

I still think it is odd that Johngenx left.

There's a guy I'd definitely like to see come back.

Yeah, him and SirO and the OG Ridgeline guy (can’t remember his exact user name, but he was the ad exec from MB.) All solid contributors.

And looks like AP is gone as well, disappeared without a trace. So, how’s that work, anyway? Some accounts (like AP’s and Vman’s) are just gone, while others (ltruong/wongpong/???) show up as “guest.”

Vman & AP deleted their accounts, others are still active, just unused.

Railton has packed it in as well. Spoke with him last Friday & all is good.
