Here, but only in the roleplaying section, really.

Lurking in the dark waiting to pounce on my prey, master.
Yea I am here, I wonder how creepy I came off in that sentence above. Never thought this site would hold a roll call.

Here, railing against the morning of which I am bereaved, and cursing the warmth for which I hunger. Out of the formless stream of short but horrible posts, strings of words might now and again shape themselves: grim, hard, cold words, heartless and miserable. Also Captions.

I just threw this up here as I was reading some threads that were posted to recently but were quite old, and wondering if some of the oldsters were still around.

I'm still here, posting actively occasionally when a subject comes up that interests me, and acting as a bouncer for spammers as well as keeping the skwerlz on a leash for the rest of the time.

I never posted much, and lately it's even less often than that, but I still lurk and look for threads with an interesting idea or perspective. The problem is, on the 'Downs, the people are both clever and quick, and usually express my thoughts for me before I even have a chance to formulate them. So mostly I just hang-out and read through.

Hi Snowdog, pleased to meet you! I'm rather new here as an active member, but have been around as an occasional lurker for much longer, and I'm always delighted to see one of the giants of old on whose shoulders we newbies are standing reappear, like SpM recently. (I'm also rather near your end of the age scale, judging from the nice pic you posted on the photo page a while ago.)
What's that, confessing before the game has even begun? ![]()

Not posting terribly a lot here, but still on daily or more--keeping up with (and occasionally posting on) Books threads, the extra-game aspects of Werewolf, and stalking significant others through the Mirth, RPG, and BD subforms.
EDIT: It occurs to me that, while I can probably legitimately place myself among the more senior active members, I'm still not one of the "old crowd" as someone like Snowdog might define it. How many years does that take?

Here and accounted for, even though I've been drawn into Downer super-culture via the Mirth forum and this one. I don't have much time for anything else these days.

Does anyone own a flat ginger cat surrounded by flies, if so it's on my driveway, can you come and collect it please. It seems that it's name was Samwise, though I doubt it was, especially since it fell asleep under my Chieftain Tank.
Does this mean I'm still here?
