Some people like Aldo_14 and Setekh have some of the highest postcounts, yet I have rarely seen one of their posts that is less than 2 years old.

Do they use private forums or something?

Just wondering.

They used to be really active, but due to various reasons (marriage in Setekhs case!) they don't have time to visit HLP anymore :(

I know aldo defected over to sectorgame for  :nervous:  "reasons unknown", but I think it was something to do with the direction the community was heading  :nervous: :confused:

He's not been here since March anyway! He left shortly after setekh it seems

I was a guest for a pretty damn long time (I did most of that on the MT or Inferno boards)

 
at least you were THERE. I've only heard of this last september...

Kinda a necro, but I'm assuming that Steak is Setekh, as I haven't been able to find his account, and the only quote of his I found led to one of Setekh's posts. When I looked through WayBackMachine, Setekh was his original username, so did he change it to Steak and back?

Steak was just a nickname others gave him, which came from mispronouncing Setekh. He never used it as an actual handle. :p

 
whatever happened to Sandwich? Last I heard from him he was going camping, or something like that.

Last I heard he was on a tour of duty or something, but I was under the impression that he had now returned.

Has anyone looked at his IM picture?  o.O  He's married now... let him be.  :p  He's still around once in awhile, though.

Yup.  Currently his IM status is "Do Not Disturb".. otherwise I'd tell you to IM him.  XD

That's a pretty accurate typo to be honest....

I've noticed that some people, like CobaltStarr and fantomeye have HLP avatars yet aren't admins.

I think they were admins at some point and worked on the original website, but they must have disappeared only a few months later since even I have never seen them post here. Fantomeye was a VBB regular at one point though.

Why did the VBB and VWBB shut down? On WayBackMachine, all indications say that they were going strong at the point of collapse.

VBB was a spam/troll haven that had essentially descended into chaos and [V] couldn't be bothered admining it anymore, and VWBB was very slow and the admins there decided not to bother any more, for the most part.
