Topic awaiting preservation: Where is everyone? (Page 1 of 3)

Things are really slowing down here. Did we finally run out of things to say? =)


 

Things have been slow in a lot of places these past few. Must be one of those astrological cycles or something.

The Phil section is pretty busy...for the Phil section.

I think that's because the site has been running so darn slow lately, I read some post somewhere that said that Webshaman gave up trying to send messages on the site. Well it seems to work okay in the morning anyway. Later in the day it seems like there must be more traffic or something.

I can't believe we've exhausted all avenues of meaningless conversation!

We should double the dose of Black pills!

mhmhmm Slime is right many mad scientists are missing, but also many many other inmates. many posters have turned into readers

Well, speaking for myself, I've become quite a reader indeed . Guess I quit being a total workaholic and stuff, which doesn't leave me much time to actively be part of any forum.

Yow mas, btw, weren't you in the army? Or have you returned already?

I'm still around and read every day, I just can't find time enough to make any (pseudo)intelligent replies
It's work, work, work and to round it off a bit, some more work... I can't even find the time for any of my own private pet projects anymore

And yes, the asylum is very slow from time to time.

Over the past year or so I have been evicted from my home twice, due to "redevelopment" and I've also been homeless for four months.
My online time is very limited atm, perhaps 7 days a month, a day here, a day there, so I hardly get any time to really contribute. You can bet your booty that the Asylum is one of the first places I visit when I can.
Now that I've got a new flat I hope to get connected there, but I can't get cable (Blueyonder) there yet, so my only other option is BT which is much more expensive.
Aaaanyways,
much like everything else in life, things go through cycles, rhythms, and I guess the same applies to the Asylum.

Damn lurkers

Work just seems to dominate my life!!!

Honestly, don't feed the machine man (Hi Ian, good to see you still here too )

I'm currently being the Homework Monster's slave, so my postings will be few and far between, but I'm trying to keep up.

Hey I have an idea....


How about coming up with a control that ensures every Asylum member has to post something atleast once a month......



~Sig coming soon~

Even myself, a former forums addict, have so much on my plate at work and school that the sight of a computer
and the concept of speaking to pixel persons is... appreciated, in small amounts at a time.

Not to mention the fact I don't even find energy/time for personal projects anymore... I hate that,
but hey, that's life.

<offtopic> cheers Nevel i am still in the army .....*sigh* but i have a nice "job" over there....just 5 more months to go, then i'm finally finished with this stupid stuff and can go to the university </offtopic>

^ Tao
G'day, I'm still about, but lurking (an admirable pasttime I might add) is about all I've got time for atm.
I did spot that savage plant of yours in PoW though

World of Warcraft has sucked me in...

Has been way too much going on in my life (school, work and other things) lately to spend enough time here to even make semi-decent replies to threads. I manage to browse through the post here everyday, but don't have time for more than that. Even have problems to get more than an hour or two per week to work on my personal projects...

And World of Warcraft is taking its fair amount of time as well. Hopefully the addiction will calm down now that I'm finally max lvl, but who knows

arrrr.... got ya! :P

best lurker ever!

I read the Asylum almost daily but only post if there's something that interests me. My interests are mainly the art / photoshop threads and that stuff has kinda died off here... and so I don't post. I get my art fix at CG Talk & Concept Art now but I still quite like this place and like to see what's happening, even if it's just quietly. I'm more lurker than participant now.

Anyone up for speed painting?

--Amerasu--

*peeks out from under the bed* heh

I can't beleive that its been 5 years.

I'm into painting/collage/printing over the digital arts these days, I'm finding there is just something about getting my paws dirty that i love.

Maybe we should have a non-digital art section? i'd love that.

Hey Ian, good to see another aussie, I'm from down sydney way.
Go the Swans!

Big weekend ahead Maruman ?

(Edited by lan on 09-29-2005 08:58)

NRL final on sunday and a public holiday on monday!
not that i really follow the NRL, but hey, its finals time

oh no, aussies!

are there no other NZers in the asylum? purely out of curiosity, honest...

oh, ditto what everybody else said about why they don't post more often...

Checking in-
Still in Iraq, still busy, still insane, still an inmate.

Be back soon. Take care, guys and gals...

You too, PS! Stay safe!

I'm here. I've definitely been pulled away though. Mostly because I'm spending more time with my family. I've been back in the Philosilly section quite a bit that last few days though.

: . . DHTML Slice Puzzle : . . .

Yes, and it is nice to have you back, Bugs.

Work, sleep, food, work, more work, a little more sleep, and unhealthy doses of Evolution V with a dash of Counter Strike: Source...

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzz.....

I've been real busy, but I'm here.

Burnout Revenge

meh, just have other things to do...

and of course, my memory of the asylum is so rose coloured, that it just don't seem the same.

but i do check up on things every week or two, just to see if i've missed anything interesting.

:: pokes head in ::
What's goin on, here. There is way too many people in here, scram lurkers! scream!

=)

*screams* :P

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzz.....

i am still around and about. no comp for 4 months and an hour at a library is only good for email and a bit of browsing i am finally in my own place and comp is up and running, well at least this one is. my other comp died lost lots of files

The-reincarnation has sucked me in.. nothing quite like a good war oh yes, i do come through occasionally to lurk and read and to check out the library

I was dead, but I`m feeling much better, now.



(Edited by docilebob on 10-10-2005 09:47)

^ Whew! And here I thought that the whole time, you had been abducted by Aliens, and used for their perverse experiments! What a relief to find out you were only dead.

I guess that once your an inmate, your always an inmate.

here's to many more years of insanity!

*Pokes head in too.*

I am here, I have only just gone to lurking because of my current homeless situation. That plus the MUD game Aardmud.org has taken up some of my time too.

Otherwise HI GUYS!
