[Loon]

Pass.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

I dropped off of IGN in a similar fashion except more gradually. What's weird is the 2 week break, before he made several posts and then left. But he could have returned and just not logged in. Or maybe he's still here under a different ID.

 

[CDailey]

WhiteCharisma85 = Blackbird.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

You ruined the mystery.

Next

 

[McLaren]

WhiteCharisma85 = Blackbird.

Yep. I think he told some of us that over the old Convo. forum.

 

[ceiling_fan]

I'm pretty sure he told us in his profile, too.

So he re-registered? Why not just get the name change?

GTPremium wasn't introduced until Nov. that year Blackbird started his new account.

 

[YSSMAN]

Bah, what an uneventful event. Can I get my twelve scrolls back, please?

===

In other news:

I thought about changing my user name once. Once. I don't think I ever will again. I'll scare too many children.

What about cEliKka_driFteR_1993?

 

[McLaren]

What about cEliKka_driFteR_1993?

Gave me a chuckle. But I think he's still too much of a die hard GM fan to do that.

 

[standard235]

EDIT:

Yeah, guess I should have read the whole thread.

Mystery solved.

 

[Max Powers]

I used to be sublime_dood10 pretty cool huh?

Other people who disappeared:
Klostrophobic
milefile
jpmontoya
vat man
boombexus
dudebusta
mazkid

or maybe i just don't notice them around anymore.

milefile

He still pops up once in a rare while.

 

[Omnis]

I'm still waiting for new shoe recommendations from vat man.

 

[Pupik]

He still pops up once in a rare while.

One post a year. You can't even PM the man!

Ironic that Doug has typed about three good-bye threads already:

Matt R used to be Avenger803

And Viper_concept, then concept, and unsanctified. He also was supposed to have a kid, but that mysteriously disappeared with the name change, too.

Jordan used to be CoreyXtreme

I thought he was monster_man?

jpmontoya

He (Carl.) popped in once to say GTP was too addictive. I hope he didn't lose a job over it!

vat_man

I think he just flat-out quit, had enough, tired of the whole shebang. He pops in at GG's place.

boombexus

Here and there.

dudebusta

How long was he here? Six months...About six years ago, minus a few token posts?

MazKid

Sellin' Mazdas is work.

 

[standard235]

Where's BlazinXtreme?

 

[Joey D]

Where's BlazinXtreme?

Here, I no longer own a Blazer so I couldn't really have that name.

 

[ExigeEvan]

I'm sure Eirc went through a few names inbetween WhiteCarisma and BB. There was RO_JAbba the hut for a while at the least.

Ironic that Doug has typed about three good-bye threads already:

I'm sure he's due another one soon...

 

[SS69]

I'm still here. Although, I've never made much of a name for myself. I don't even think anyone on here even realizes I exist. When I make a post most people probably assume I'm a newbie and dismisses me just as quickly. I was always sort of a seldom poster. Every now and then there would be bouts of me posting a few times a day for a couple of weeks, then I would just disappear for a couple of months. Now I just sign on every so often and make maybe one post then go away again for some time. I only have around 1000 posts in 5 years worth of membership.

Toats.

I was thinking about ditching the Cadillac avatar for the Celica... But I'm just not ready yet.

 

[exigeracer]

My changeover to Exige was pretty obvious. I think I did have someone warn me near the start of this account that people would confuse me with eliseracer.

Somewhat OT - my 5th joinday party is coming up. Drinks on me June 9th!

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

No one would have noticed or cared, but when I joined up, I posted a bit for a month or 2, then completely disappeared for a year or so. Then I came back and made more of a name for myself.

Do many people even know me outside of Gran Turismo tuning?

 

[Muzaffar]

Well I do know you nd 4 holden spd.

As for the mystery being solved, lets try to find some other members who went missing (well since this thread has already been made, why not change the thread title to "GTP Missing Members Search" or something like that. Pweety, pweety please? )

Brock5000 (been missing since Dec 29 2007, usually can be found at the GT4 Gallery sub forum)
Gashlycrumb (been missing since Mar 16 2008, usually seen at the cars in general or the automotive forum)
Jay. (haven't really seem in a while, but maybe he just doesn't visit here as often. usually seen in the digital arts help sub forum and just about anywhere.....)

But its ironic that nobody mentions my old username since I changed my name when I got my premium even when I have it in my sig. I guess it was probably a stupid username anyhow.....

 

[Keef]

EDIT: Wow I missed a whole page...

 

[ceiling_fan]

Most people who stop coming do so because they either don't have the time or just any interest. The interesting thing about WhiteCharisma85 was he made like 15 posts per day and then STOP, like maybe he was hit by a bus or something. Pretty much everybody in Max Powers' list gradually stopped posting due to time (milefile) and lack of interest (MazKid.)

Speaking of the long gone, whatever happened to Old Geezer?
