Good things come to those who waite! ;)
Don has posted recently in the Backroom, and I think I saw new Goofball and DevDave posts in the Dojo II. But I know what you mean, the Backroom is a lot quieter without that core. Hopefully Shogun 2 delivers, and brings many of them back.
Adrian drops by from time to time but he won't become active anymore

I do miss Gawain though. Does Fizzil even have a account here?

These are mostly just friends from my profile. There are so many people absent or lost completely along the way, i miss. I just hope some atleast will show up sooner or later.:stwshame:
I actually got a PM from econ21 a month or two ago. Granted, it was because Nigerians had broken into my email account and sent out a mass "I've been mugged overseas and need $1000, please send it ASAP" to everyone in my contacts list and he was just checking to make sure it was a scam, but it's nice to know he *is* still around, or at the very least popping in from time to time. :yes: IIRC I've seen rotorgun around every so often too. Definitely miss a lot of the others though.Quote:

DON'T WORRY, BRAH. I'M STILL WITH YA.

Yes, we need to let these people know that the Backroom has been taken over by the commies, maybe that will make them come back?
Speaking of the AWOL Brigade, where ya been Strike? We been missing you also.

And others already listed.

I've realized that after M2TW and even worse, Empire Total War the number of new potential members has decreased since the quality of the series has massively declined. No matter what a lot of those listed were going to leave the forums as they grew up and became more involved in their own lives especially after college and entering the workforce and raising a family.
We wouldn't be morning those who had left if we had a full replenishment of new people to participate and keep each other entertained. It's easier to forget your old friends when you have new friends to take their place easily.
We all know this (or are thinking it) but it needs to be said in public: the forum community and the total war community at large is in danger of shrinking to a fatal size if this next title fails and fails hard. Not only is the interest of the old members hinging on the strength of this Shogun sequel (remake I guess some would call) but if Shogun turns out to be another slow, unmodifiable behemoth that Empire is, new members wont bother investing their time here.
I predict that if Shogun 2 succeeds we will be fine for at least a year with long term benefits depending on how modding is implemented. If Shogun fails like Empire has, then I'm predicting our forum will experience a slow but noticeable anti-Eternal September that might eventually just leave maybe a few dozen on here and TWC with significantly less then now.
I could just be a pessimist when it comes to this though for all I know. I do miss FactionHeir though, he helped me begin modding M2TW when I first started browsing this forum and I don't recall thanking him.
Im with ACIN.
Well, saddly, TWCenter still has a crapload of active members, while this forum seems to become emptier every new month. There's no way I'd go onto TWCenter for something else than mods, but it has to be said too.Quote:

As for the future of the .org, I fear it is bleak, or at least does not lie in the TW series. We've reached a point where our numbers are currently low enough that the new titles won't attract many people here anyway, since they'll go for the activity over at TWC. Now all we can do is sit and wallow in our bitterness in the Backroom, reminiscing over the glory days...
If the backroom isnt the hellstorm it was when I left, I may cosider going back, just to see how things are...
Still feel kindy bad about that, I made a mistake I couldn't correct, I tried but he wouldn't have any of it. Hope he is ok anywayQuote:

At least we had the chance to appreciate thier wit, intelligence and kindness. We are far better off pining for old friends than those staring at a list of random names...
Aside from already mentioned there was AntiochusIII and Byzantine Mercenary who were brilliant in the Backroom. Gorebag was always great in chat. AND OF COURSE SHAMBLES! I also don't see Papewaio and TheStranger much anymore. :sad:
Also where has TinCow gone? My god... :shame:
It is sad when you sit back and realise all those we've left behind.Quote:

Simply the fact that there is such a large list makes me again realise what a special place the org is.
Another to add to those:
Omanes.
TinCow's still around, just getting absolutely slaughtered with work at the moment in the worst kind of way.Quote:

I feel very sad that so many of these guys aren't around. I shudder to think how few of the original WotS/KotR vets are left.Quote:
