Hey, can anyone PM some updates on who has left?

I check in once a month or so, and after reading the all the admin stuff and seeing some of the threads, I'd love it if someone could give me a quick rundown of who's left, and where they post now if possible. Threads would be great, too. I don't want to lose a few I already know have left.

Some big losses for this site. Sorry to see them go.

Don't expect others to fill you in when you haven't been around and haven't deigned to search through what you missed.

Of course, that's easy for me to say because I'm here all the time.

I LOVE DU!

Just a request. I tend to be the type of person who asks the librarian almost immediately when I don't know what book I am looking for

I left DU, but I came back as soon as I was finished in the bathroom.

But to tell the truth, for the time I spend here to pay for it would take everything I own.

I suppose I should be slightly ashamed at the percentage of my time on DU that has been spent in the bathroom irl but it is a great temporary reading fix

I predict the ones that left will come back sooner than you might think.

But there are at least three GBCW posts going in GD right now; that'll give you a starting place.
