Old Tyrannia wrote:As far as posters who are no longer with us go, and focusing particularly on people I know principally from NSG rather than the roleplaying side of the forums, I particularly miss Conscentia, Distruzio, Conserative Morality, Aelex, Hanafuridake, The East Marches, Parkus before he went off the deep end, The Supreme Magnificent High Swaglord, Prussia-Steinbach, Bear Sterns, Mostrov, Napkiraly and Questers. Sanghyeok, who was active until fairly recently, probably deserves a mention as well. I know I'm not the most even-tempered of people and struggle to keep a cool head in a heated debate, so I particularly value posters like Conscentia and Sanghyeok who hold strongly differing political views to me but are able to remain calm and polite whilst discussing them, because it makes it easier for me to do the same and so carry on a constructive dialogue.
Some currently or recently active posters I particularly like and/or respect include Punished UMN, Fahran, Cevokiu, Salus Maior, Tarsonis, The Archregimancy, Kowani, Huskar, Nanatsu no Tsuki, Galloism, Immortan Khan, Luminesa, Reverend Norv, Odreria, Ethel mermania, Blaat, Risottia, Fartnsiffage, USS Monitor, Dumb Ideologies and WRA. That's by no means an exhaustive list. There are a lot of posters who have left a sufficient impression on me to be considered memorable.
Edited to add a few others who jumped to mind just after I'd posted.
Bear Sterns still shows up from time to time.
