Dear B19,
Please tell him ‘Hello’ and that we wish him well; I am sure that no one meant to hurt any feelings; I just do not always know when people are joking.

I really don't think BDavro meant any harm by what he said. He isn't the type to spread rumours, he really isn't malicious in any way. I think he's a sweetheart.

I'm not so sure about him being extremely upset considering his Pointless Thead of Death thread.

There are some of us who communicate with Raleigh and each other outside of WP. Sometimes something might be said that those who are outside of the loop don't get.

when that joke first appeared it wasn't him who was upset by it, it was biggles. in fact, raleigh pleaded the mods to take quilalba back, when he was banned because of that joke.

There's a member who was still active when I first joined but became inactive shortly thereafter. At the time, I was new to WP and unaware of some of the "traditions".

So this member was a young woman, and what's noteworthy to me is that some time after she joined, she developed a serious IRL relationship with a male member who joined later. This has happened more than once in the past (although I don't think it has happened very much at all within the last 5 years) but what is even more noteworthy is that their courtship was conducted very publicly on WP. So I guess you could say there was genuine "fun" (other than word games) happening here once upon a time.

Older members will probably know who I mean. What's noteworthy to me is that, as a woman diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, she was a very happy person and did not seem to suffer as a result of her (or her partner's) "disorder" (not that her life was a bed of roses, but whose is?). Something I see very little of here now, in fact just about everybody here seems miserable nowadays. This no-longer active member seems to me to personify, by her absence, what has changed about WP.

So yes I miss her in the sense that I would think it wonderful for her to sign in again and give an update or something, although I suspect she may have even forgotten that WP exists.

Sounds like you're talking about "Makayla the Aspie" who was quite young (like 17) when she first appeared on WP some years ago. She disappeared from the site for a while, then reappeared, but seems to have disappeared again.
