Disappointing, of course, but it's been years since people really used the IRC.

Hey folks, sorry for the long disappearance but my life's been pretty thoroughly consumed by college and such. What've I missed?

I remember an Ekyl from the IRC ages ago, but I thought that I also remembered the name being tied to the baorder Name blipped. You're welcome. ~Nameless Admin. Is that the case or was I mixing up two completely different dudes?

Yes, but I prefer nobody use that second name. by

The whole reason behind the switch was basically taking my real name out of public view.

You know, I think I recognize your name. by

In fact I'm sure of it. Why I recognize it, though, that I am less sure of. Initial brain-wracking suggests something to do with math.
As to what's happened, I'm afraid I can't tell you much. I only started posting last month, and before that I wasn't paying particularly close attention.
Anyway, take this this Replica Holocron, perhaps it will entertain you during your archive trawling. -
Nice to see your name pop up again. by

Hope you've been doing well. As someone with his college years not too far in the past, I can relate to feelings of life-consumption.

I'm in Boston College these days, so I'm in a better place than this time last year at least. Maybe when I get a bit I'll finally update some of those stories I was keeping you in the loop about.

Frenemy? Nemesis with friendifits? Friend with frequent enmity?
I don't know. Clearly it is one of the above. -

Some of the things I've noticed:
* The IRC is gone and, accordingly, Iric in Plort is fallen (why?)
* Iximaz is leaving at least temporarily
* Something about new RPs?
* Discussion about how HQ's economy works
* hS still does Wednesday plugs
* A boarder I never met has passed on :(
* Stuff -
The IRC is not gone-gone... by

Just gone from the Board header because it's basically deader than disco — most of the time there's nobody there. The channel is still up, though.

The channel only exists when someone is in there. There are no more official Ops, no Bot, the channel has even be de-registered. I dunno when it happened, but I logged into Mibbit one day and it was gone. So personally, I just kinda gave up on it.

Did you have to trawl through six months or so of archives to get that information?
If you did, I will laugh heartily. -
That's a little rude but I doubt you meant it that way. by

Anyhow, those were observations from the very start of the archive trawl.

Sorry, honestly. I can't apologise enough.
I was aiming for facetiously dickish, but that sort of stuff doesn't seem to work through text.
One of these days, I'm going to really, honestly, actually piss someone off.
Thanks for being so chill about it, though.
Good heavens. -

Since you've got agents, I'll let the black-hole stuff aside, though you can help yourself with the coffee and/or the chocolate, and give you a self-updating guidebook of all the deathtraps in the multiverse. Let the glitterbags suffer the IO's wrath for once.

As for what you've missed? Well, Board archives will show all. Both good things and bad things.
