valuable new posters

🤔

Point being I wish he'd stick around because obviously pretty much everyone loves and respects him

Yeah, if anyone knows Shakey Mo or Brad in real life or elsewhere on the internet, I'd be really happy to hear that they're ok.

Someone brought up shakey/Οὖτις on one of the milk carton threads a few weeks ago.

The certain poster from the trans thread was threadbanned after her bullshit and hasn't been seen anywhere else around here since, but no sign of Brad.

oh gotcha

dang, wish they would both come back! although i definitely understand the urge to get away sometimes as well.

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

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.

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?

isolated posts but wasn't posting regularly

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.

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

is there a thread for 'where has so and so poster gone'? sorry i was genuinely curious about brad & shakey

ilx milk carton

thank u

Yeah, sometimes it makes sense when a poster has been missing to wonder if they re-registered with a new handle.

I've been here for awhile now and yet still not so good at following those developments.

xp is that a hint?

No, no. I was just saying that I understand why flappy bird was posting in this, the wrong thread for what he was posting.

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!

so many years. god i suck at typing and thinking today

ive always wondered if flappy bird used to go by another name

former name was offensive to brits iirc.

ILX Name Changes Part Nine: Reveal Thy Self!

xxp yes. late 2012 - early 2015 i had another username. but my last display name on my old account was flappy bird so it's easy to find

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

former name was offensive to brits iirc.

AliDia

I forgot about branwell

banwell

Yeah just came to post this gem

Kelela - Cut 4 Me

Volkswagen T-Roc

is Gummy Gummy an old poster returned in their dotage?

must be, but i don't know who it is

let's ask, it's a US Pol thread tradition ime

has to be an old poster or a lurker who's really absorbed ilx posting rhythm/style

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

feels like a young one who's blundered in?

... seems to have posted here for two or three weeks 5 years ago and then reapppeared to pose this admittedly pressing qestion.

... oops...

bernard sumner?!

everything is a nakh project

what we really need is a thread for the top 200 ilx posters least likely to be nakh projects ...

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

how does one determine if a poster is a "nakh project"
also, what is a "nakh project"?

would that twere so simple

nakh project = sock of poster nakhchivan

last night i watched a tv "programme" set in London in which a baby died, and I did raise a glass to nakh
