I'm nearly invisible at this point. I was posting a bit a while back, but I'm so f'n tired of the endless GG vs. anti-GG crap that inevitably invades every thread that I've been just avoiding the forums about 95% of the time lately.

I think a select few know me as I know them, I recognize a few who have posted. If anyone does know me congratulations I congratulate you because I post so little Usually what happens is I come to the site get really talkative for a while then fall back into lurking Right now I've fallen back into lurking. If you don't know my name then you've probably seen my avatar around before.

I don't really know. I've been here for six years (six years? What the hell, time?) and my post count is bearing down on five figures, but I've never gotten very involved in any usergroups. I kinda hope that my frankly fabulous avatar makes up for my cringeworthy username (I was 14. I was a dumb kid.), but I never really got the impression anyone paid me that much attention. Now excuse me whilst I go wipe the tears out of my keyboard.
I always liked your username...

*realises that I have the sense of humour of a dumb kid*
When I came up with it I genuinely thought I was some kind of comedy genius... seeing it every day kinda sucked any humour out of it, as well as realising that loads of smug American Democrats have it plastered on their bumpers.

You know, for some reason I always thought you were older than me. What. The. Hell.

Also, your username is awesome. Whenever I see it I always think of something like this [http://weknowmemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/cause-fuck-you.jpg].
Well, I am grouchy and forgetful so it's an easy mistake to make.

Fear not! We had a collective whinge and now it's all been banished from Off-Topic.

My stealth skill on this site has reached 100. :D

I fell off the face of the Escapist a few years ago, and I'm... not really back, but I'm trying not play more Fallout so I can get to bed at a reasonable time for once, so, yo!

I'd be very surprised if anyone recognizes me. I don't really post all that often but I do enjoy a good lurk round these parts.

I would think that people with strong opinions on social issues and some technical ones would probably be aware of me. No idea about the broader scope of the site though.

Who are you people?

I would like to think that after almost 4 years here, people at least recognise the avatar.

I don't post that much, there seem to be spells of tons of stuff I comment on and then days when nothing interests me. And of course you can find me moaning about Aston Villa on the Premier League user group every now and then.

I pretty much write silly and sarcastic comments, I don't take anything that seriously and whenever I post something that I think might upset someone and no one responds I do breathe a sigh of relief.

Or people just don't care about what I say, in which case you're all a bunch of arseholes and I've had sex with your mum/dad/parental guardian.

I'm pretty sure people don't even read my posts. But then again I feel no one notices me in real life also so, take that with a grain of salt.
Your Gimble Gramp avatar and username caught my eye. How can I ignore a Grump face in the crowd?

Pretty sure that at least a few people recognize me (Probably a safe bet when you don't change your avatar for three years of reasonable activity ;) ), though whether anyone thinks anything of me other than "Oh god it's that longwinded guy again! D:" is another question entirely. On the flip side, there are a lot of people here I recognize at least by avatar.

Seriously, you need your own badge. You joined in 2009 and you only yhave 75 posts!?

Especially when compared to this guy:

Just for the fun of it:

The long-winded, slightly obsessive fun of it.

Colour Scientist said:
I do not recognise you. The name rings a bell, I think some French chick used something similar, but your avatar frightens and confuses me.

Dragonlayer said:
I recognise you, both name and avatar. Wouldn't say I know you at all though.

TheKasp said:
I remember seeing you about the place.

TizzytheTormentor said:
Another familiar name, another frightening and confusing avatar.

Barbas said:
Strangely, I know your name but I associate no particular avatar with it.

Wandering_Hero said:
I remember seeing your name about the place.

Sassafrass said:
I've seen you once or twice, but not nearly as much as your astronomical post count would suggest.

JoJo said:
I wouldn't say I know you, but you are familiar to me.

MysticSlayer said:
Recognise you. Kept the same avatar for a long time. Good man.

Hoplon said:
Avatar vaguely familiar, name unknown.

shrekfan246 said:
I remember you. I liked your posts.

Casual Shinji said:
You I know, in that I remember stuff about you beyond username and avatar.

Eclipse Dragon said:
I remember you. You draw dragons! Although I have on occasion confused you with user Dragonbums which is a totally understandable mistake to make.

Wintermute said:

Yes, fine, I remem... wait, there's a 'My Escapist' page? Huh. Well, now I guess I know what you look like too.

Pink Gregory said:
I recognise you. Your avatar is cute and blessedly consistent.

T0ad 0f Truth said:
I suspect you are better remembered than you think.

The Wykydtron said:
Hello to you to. I think of you as 'Persona and League of Legends Guy' and I always shall. Also, apparently your avatar is a demigod of gaming or something?

Hero in a half shell said:
I do indeed recognise your avatar. Also your name.

DizzyChuggernaut said:
I remember you from the 'Record your Voice' thread.

Dandark said:
I do indeed recognise your avatar. I always think it's Batou from Ghost in the Shell, even though I'm pretty sure it's not.

leberkaese said:

DanielBrown said:
I recognise your name. Mostly because I went to school with someone named Daniel Brown and I always kind of wondered if you might be him. Looking at your profile, it seems highly unlikely.

Scars Unseen said:
I recognise your avatar. Also you username, which always makes me wonder if it's just a dramatic sounding screen name or a reference to past hardships.

Marter said:
I like to picture you as a great, lonely titan striding through the desert of User Reviews. Which, now that I say it, sounds kind of unflattering.

Oh, and I watched Scorpion King 3 because of you. I hope you're bloody happy.

Frission said:
Avatar recognised.

The Goat Tsar said:
Also recognise your avatar. It's cute.

Baffle said:
Aaaaand another avatar recognised. I always think it's Anikin Skywalker, but I'm pretty sure it's actually a guy with a towel on his head.

Phasmal said:
I don't think you come across as grumpy. Perhaps somewhat exasperated at times. Which is totally different.
(Also remember you from the accent thread. It's surprisingly humanising to be able to attach an actual voice to a username. More so than a photo even.

MarsAtlas said:
Ah yes, another loyal member of the SJW brigade. Keep fighting the good fight. (Also, for a time I was constantly confusing you with user CloudAtlas.)

The Lunatic said:
I recognise you. For reasons.

At least I think I do. Your avatar used to be a somewhat anthropomorphized hyena/African hound, right?

Okay, bugger this, that'll have to do. If I knew how long this was going to take I wouldn't have started.

Speaking of presence on the Escapist, what happened to DANGER-MUST-SILENCE? I've just now noticed he's banned, but there's no link to a corresponding post, and he was easily amongst the most diplomatic and eloquent of us, had some real good views that weren't common to come across elsewhere. Real shame.

I'm in between some people recognizing me (probably a small amount) and none at all. I post from time to time. And then I have LONG stretches where I don't post anything for a while. If anyone out there does recognize me, I guess let me know and either prove me right or wrong.

I've been a member for over a year and a lurker for way longer. I'm not sure what prompted me to sign up, but I mostly just read what everyone else is saying and contribute something once in a blue moon. Maybe in 4 years I'll have managed 100 posts.

Thanks for the mention! I stumbled upon this one (it's a knack), because notifications aren't sent out to the quoted parties when they're spoilered.

Real shame.
Unfortunately, he got into an argument with someone and accrued several warnings rather than disengage and leave them to it. I assume the ban was requested if they don't all add up to a ban and no specific post was linked. I'm sad to see him go, but I think that if the elevation to a ban was requested, he can probably PM a staff member to have it reversed.

*Features crease into a smile*. I knew you would come!



You are strangely dressed for a knight. I recognize you from the strength of your resolve and the quality of your discourse in spiritual and political matters, brother.

Well I manage to be a social recluse on a forum which I find pretty impressive, to that extent hardly anyone here recognizes me. Which is whatever I suppose.
