We didn't always get along, but I consider you a DL mainstay. Dare I say icon? Won't be the same Hope all is well and wish you luck 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,789 Posted March 9, 2023 Your contributions to the site have been well valued, especially the research on old musicians and actors. Be well! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clorox Bleachman 2,292 Posted March 9, 2023 Sad to see you go. I'd like to think it's not as strict as signing your resignation letter and vowing never to return. Hell, I vanish sometimes, but no one's checking. You can show up whenever you like and we can agree to... I don't know... not make a fuss, if you don't want that. You obviously have different views to some members, but that can only be a positive. Echo chambers aren't productive places to be. Thanks for your many hours spent reading up on people who had been all but forgotten. Enjoy your retirement 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,684 Posted March 9, 2023 Goodbye, and many thanks for the contributions! I enjoyed your work very much. I wish for you to be able to channel these efforts into a different subject. The forum will be around for a while I suspect. I dare say that one never completely leaves this interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,082 Posted March 9, 2023 Sorry to hear this. Your efforts with old actors and footballers was phenomenal and I'll struggle to keep this up by myself. But I do understand and wish you well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Não vou entrar nas minhas razões para isso. Eu ainda vou cair a cada poucos meses para editar as listas existentes que fiz ao longo dos anos, mas não pretendo mais postar. Adeus I was very sad about this news, your contributions are very important to me, and I believe that for the vast majority here, I will miss you, cheers for you, I hope you come back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,074 Posted March 10, 2023 So long, Ulitzer. We weren't always on the same page, expecially during a certain period, but seeing a post from yours in the 100 club or Political Frailty threads always gave high hopes to me. I'd imagine I'd come here someday, seeing your post on the 100 Club as "Song Ping dead at 106", but this won't sadly happen. And the same for many other of them geezers still around. Take care.

Root Inspector 184 Posted April 1, 2023 Hi. I've been happy just lurking for a while now but I find myself bored so thought I'd join. I'm no veteran deadpooler or learned researcher or anything so I apologise in advance for adding nothing to this site. Edit: My first post and you're calling me a spammer? Thanks for that. I've got nothing to sell, I promise. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh don’t worry about that, it’ll change up when you post more. What normally happens here is new posters say hello and then never post again. So I’ll say welcome, but dubiously. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
