A few others you mentioned are too but I never see them on there. Like PepperVL I really miss her. Antheras, geishabird,kislany, & Mirp are 4 others that are on FB friend's list but never there. Some of these I've never heard of....tempestsans, classicfox, geniedances MissTree! I wonder what happened to her too. She was really sick with cancer at one time. I was friends with Breeze at one time on Facebook but since been defriended. Last I knew she was pregnant. needmorezoloft is remarried and due to have her baby anytime now. If she hasn't already had him or her. katayoun I am friends with on Goodreads. She still keeps up there last I remember. Rebemdee and Kyrissaean I miss a lot too. I wonder what's happened to them. Oh Besty-STL! There's a name I haven't seen in a long time. Her and ChinaSourcer. Zmrzlina there's one I miss and wish she'd come back. She has a postcard blog on Blogspot that she keeps updated. A few of those listed won't be ever back for various reasons. Mostly because of the 6 month list. Right now I can't think of anyone else offhand. I'll look through the members list here and see if there are others. corry000, cosmic-gin, khillz28, marcinyc, rangerfan, ryanreader are more I miss that you didn't mention.

Thoroughly Obsessed Posts: 1,403 Group: Members Member #24 Joined: December 23, 2005	MsPooh is another one I just remembered! My idea is that if they ever pop in here (even anoymous) they will see that they are missed!

There is someone else whose name is on the tip of my tongue and I'm hoping I'll remember it.... I use to get cozies from her and I thing she was from out west somewhere, I want to say CA....

Does killing time damage eternity? Posts: 2,819 Group: Members Member #104 Joined: July 24, 2006	I thought I recall something about MissTree passing away. Or was that someone else?

Does killing time damage eternity? Posts: 2,819 Group: Members Member #104 Joined: July 24, 2006	Nope...my bad. She's still active on BC. There was someone here that passed away though. Also miss Kelly (EllieMae...) who had Scooter and AmericanMuse. I see mysterious still pops in every now and then like me. Edited by Daelith, Feb 4 2010, 12:46 PM.

Remembers. Posts: 3,295 Group: Members Member #141 Joined: January 19, 2007	I was going to say that I saw Antheras recently, but it must have been at least a year ago now, when our local meet-up group had a special get-together for a visiting BCer. I don't make it to our group's normal meetings anymore because my current schedule just doesn't allow for it-- it's a couple cities away, on Thursday evenings, and I am generally working then. KarinAlyssa is my facebook friend, though we don't talk that often. She is living in Montreal again, I believe. I think she's finishing up grad school, but she might be done by now...

OMG I am so anal. Anyways. I was so hurt at the beginning, 2004/2006 when people I considered friends suddenly left and did not reply to my emails. Now i have hardened my heart and know that even if you think you are close, they can suddenly leave because of stuff in real life or because they owe too many books.

I think you mean SCOUT-FINCH - she lives in Sherman Oaks, CA I think .... she and Jenvince used to live near each other before Jenvince moved to AZ. SCOUT-FINCH did a lot of the cozy mystery bookboxes along with MartieKr, another person I haven't seen around lately (but this was all on BC not BO)

Just kidding -- it's definitely true that internet communities shift really quickly sometimes. A change in job or life circumstance can mean a total change in amount of time at the computer or interest in something.

Things change and other things become more important, or maybe some people just lose interest. I myself am not as active as I used to be. I used to play in a lot of swaps.

ShapeShifter Posts: 298 Group: Members Member #98 Joined: July 24, 2006	Whew. Glad I'm not on those lists, but I hope you guys know how to find me if you miss me and need a fix. (If not, try westofmars.com, facebook, or Twitter. all as West of Mars (usually one word) MarciNYC and I Twitter all the time. She lost a TON of weight, isn't reading as much, and is now needlepointing. She sounds happy. Breeni and I are still in touch... she's very Facebook active. Had a lot of life changes, which seem to be good for her.

I should be walking my dogs Posts: 1,663 Group: Members Member #45 Joined: December 23, 2005	What a big list! I'm going to send a little "missing you" card to a few of these people who I've really missed seeing. Hopefully I can hunt up their addresses!
