Wow!, 11 pages and only three mentions

Why do people think I've been away?? I've seen stuff such as "since he came back" and something about missing me, I haven't gone/been anywhere!!

We know man.. so why worry about that?

[oldmancan]

Wasn't gonna, for all the reasons already mentioned. But, wtf... I know there are folks that I always watch for any posts, that aren't on my list. Also there are a couple new folks that I enjoy seeing posts from. So all in all a lazy list.

Honourable mentions: RatFaced, ShareDaddy, Bender and Curley.

edit: MagicNakor and FunkyCapricorn.

This has been a really good thread, a great opportunity to say nice things about one and other.

It is an opportunity-

There is a dynamic here that cannot be found elsewhere in everyday life.

I served on a rather large "task-force" at one time that had a bit of it, but this forum, while it suffers from "group-think" on occasion, is emblematic of what we seek in life:

An answer for every question (after a fashion )

An opportunity to exchange information and ideas (and exorcise our errant demons).

VARIETY! VARIETY! VARIETY!

And, most important, just a chat sometimes.

We are ALL the better for it, I think, and I laud everyone here who provides the little things that others need, on whatever level.

This is a very responsive place.

It interests me that this topic was interpreted as "Who do you like" by most people, whereas the question was "Who are your favourite forum members".

Well, in my usual style, I'm afraid I have to be a wee bit different. I won't produce a list of members names. That would quite frankly be gauche.

My favourite members are those who make this place the most interesting forum I have experienced, by a proverbial mile :

The people who post with elegance, wit and charm. The people who post as if they were looking the other way whilst randomly hitting keys.

The people who listen to an argument, decide what they think and reply. The people who jump in with both feet and reproduce trite drivel.

The people who take pride in their image. The people who don't give a flying feck.

Those who stand alone and defend their position. Those who run with the pack.

The mature who have formed their opinions. The young who are .... just angry.

The moderate, the extreme. The good, the bad and the ugly.

Everyone who has been good enough to enhance my quality of life, just by being themselves and letting me be part of their life.

You know who you are. If you don't recognise yourself in the above, then you are not on my "list".

I salute you all. Thanks for that.

Yes, that was the question. My initial post took into account, not just people I like, but people who fulfill a function, a niche, for the forum which makes it dynamic, provokative, and still just one calorie.
