A Memorial of Members - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thinlómien · 09-07-2007, 01:42 AM

There's so many people who used to be active but are away (for different reasons, some known, some unknown to me and who have been for periods of different length) or very inactive and I miss them.

Come back spawn, Nilp, Valier, Naria, Jenny, Ang and Roa! And Eonwe, Wilwa, Fordim, malkatoj and tar-ancalime too. (I know some of you have just too much RL stuff going on right now and some others might have lost interest with this forum or don't feel home at here anymore, but...)

And then there's a bunch of 'downers who I only see around in livejournal these days. I wouldn't mind seeing them actively posting here.

Why did you not mention me Lommy?

I hope that I atleast was amongst the LJ downers. . .

Anyways I know how you feel about all those who you mentioned. . . .I still hope that some might return, but I am feeling quite confident that 2 of them won't.

You were among the LJ 'downers

, and that was why I didn't mention you, or Di, Encai or Ka or Fea or Celuien or Valesse or Cailín or... (though quite many of those I mentioned are not active in LJ either...)

The day before yesterday I spent time reding the Dueling Wizards ww-thread and it made me quite sad, because there were so many "lost" people playing and they were so great, for example Gurth the Good Wizard...

Although we had more differences of opinion than agreements, I am sorry that the Saucepan Man isn't around very much anymore. One thing we were in agreement on was the importance of Remembrance Sunday and he usually changed is avatar so that it wore a poppy with pride. That it hasn't happened this year is rather sad ...

Ah, yes, as so often, good call Ms Mith. *goes to change siggy*

Mithalwen · 11-12-2007, 02:44 PM

Oh, okiedokie, its just that I prefer Ms myself.....
But here's one thing I'm sure we will agree on - the lamentable absence of our dear Byronic Brand.

Been reading old Books threads, so now I miss Keep' and doug*platypus.

And Lindolirian.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 06-11-2008, 07:05 PM

I see that nobody missed me in my short period of absence... oh well...

Mithalwen · 06-19-2008, 02:02 PM

but despite the fact we had many differences of opinion culminating occasionally in strong exchanges of views, I find I miss the humour and intelligence of The Saucepan Man greatly and hope that life is treating him well (now that he has seemingly discovered that it is sustainable beyond the Downs).

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 06-19-2008, 02:11 PM

I miss Saucepan Man too, and Fea. Larger than life figures both, but I also miss Numenorean. Where are you, man?

You know, he still has the most posts out of all Downers.

Mithalwen · 06-19-2008, 02:35 PM

Despite not having posted for five months and little before.... yes..... while there are a delightful bunch of newer arrivals I do miss Sauce, Heren, Fordim and the reduced presence of others such as Lal and Dave.... the giants of my early days here...

Lalaith · 06-19-2008, 02:41 PM

I am sure you will empathise, Mith, when I tell you that reading the Grimoire while playing DWW, and now looking at Nilp's sig, has made me pine for Ang again. He was going to co-mod your operatic WW at one point, wasn't he?
