Tacenda, hi.

Does anyone remember if these persons announced their departures?

MormonNewb was prominent for a while, I am guessing, four or five years ago. 

Ahab was prolific. He seemed like a fixture around here, like another who is now gone, Zakuska.

Ahab is back (if he ever truly left), actually.  I've had some interactions with him in the last few days.

I thought Teddyaware got in to trouble with the powers that be. (That is not a criticism, another of my favorites, Pahoran, was I think, removed from the premises).

If our current Bobbyaware is unrelated to Teddyaware through marriage or blood, he/she certainly seems to exhibit many of the same ideas and values as Teddy, which I appreciated.

Pretty sure they were husband and wife.

Wade Englund, where have you gone?

There's a Wade Englund posting recently, I think. Same Wade? I don't know.

Does anyone remember a poster named Selek? I remember discussing with him on a few occasions, if I'm remembering right. I just saw him on another board. It looks like he isn't active anymore and I remember he was.

I suspect he got frustrated with the moderation. He was willing to express strong opinions at times.  I cannot remember if he wanted to discuss politics like a few posters we haven’t seen for awhile.

I went back through my posts and saw it was selek 1. But today I saw another selek with what I thought was sleek 1's avatar.

He got banned a few times here.  His original screen name was Selek.  Then he was banned.  Then he came back as Selek1.  And that was banned eventually.  His rough and tumble rhetoric wasn't appreciated by the mods, I guess.  His last sign-on was in September 2012.

I have seen him on the other board.   He was posting just a couple of days ago.

I was wondering if they were the same. Wasn't he a true believing LDS when posting on here? I remember getting into some exchanges with him. Now it doesn't appear that he is any longer.

I did a search of this board and the other board, and the Selek posts show the same flying duck avatar.  So I think they are one in the same.

I wonder if he sees these posts mentioning him. I swear he was a defender of the faith, I wonder what happened.

Yes, he was an avid defender.

I miss Daniel Peterson a lot.

Thanks, yes I do remember cause he sure didn't like me. 

The other board has several postings who use to be avid defenders.  A couple were even part of FAIR at one time.

I remember years ago a St. Balthasar, IIRC he was Elder Wirthlin's grandson? or great nephew, some kind of lawyer or something in Utah. I remember there was for a short time a current GA's niece's husband who posted on here, I emailed him once or twice as I had heard that GA speak twice and he was something else I tellya

 

and Freedom, where is he?!

It is interesting to me that the people we wonder about do not seem to have announced that they are leaving. Maybe there was no decision. They got tired of it perhaps and the years went by. When people announce they are leaving, they usually come back. There is an exception. A fellow Catholic, a lady from Utah, former LDS. I often opposed her, not for her being Catholic of course, but because it seemed to me that she often appealed to faulty anti-LDS arguments. I don't think Catholics need to be anti-LDS. I always want to put you on the offensive, to prove we are apostate. I am not comfortable on the offensive. I have been impressed with LDS defensive apologetics for a long time. Anyway, I made her a little angry one last time and she said she was leaving and I have not seen her since. It was at the most, five years ago. Anybody remember her screen name?

I miss her. But I irritated her. Thankfully there is Miserere Nobis...

My memory is shot. Thank you, Calm. Yes! Saemo.

I hope you are well, Saemo.
