I lurk most of the time so no one notices me. However my health bar has almost regenerated enough for my return...
I was much more active about a year ago but I'm sure some people recognize my avatar at the very least.
I'm just a longtime lurker who just sits in a corner. I barely post but I recognize most people here. *Goes back to corner*
See that post count?
I've worked hard to keep it that low.
Yeah, that's right. You don't know me.
I don't know me either.

Much like in real life I'm the guy who people recognize when I'm talking (usually recognizing how much they hate me) but when I'm not people forget I even exist.
Despite being here for years I'm not very active, so I'm sure most people here have no idea who I am. I especially haven't posted much recently just because I've been too busy/tired from other things going on in my life.
I'm not a very sociable person when it comes to the internet, I'm better at interacting with people directly. I also avoid confrontation as much as possible because my blood pressure doesn't need that, and these forums have been getting more and more confrontational in the last couple of years.

I post in OT and R&P.
Am I recognizable to people? Probably vaguely. Some may even remember me from years ago, before I took a year forum break.
Do I make an impression? Certainly. Hell, at least 3 people that I know of (And most likely more then that) have blocked me. It usually takes more then one post for that.
Like school children say, if you can't get good attention, get bad attention!
Long Live the Federated Commonwealth!

Some people recognize me, I guess that's because I've been here over five years now and I have a big, yellow avatar that I don't change anymore. But my posting really has declined: I got about 13,000 posts in my first three years, and I've barely gotten 2,000 posts in the last two.
I stopped frequenting user groups because they died out or I lost interest (poor TF2 group, once the biggest and oldest usergroup on the site, now the chat is at a standstill and the mods have all but left the site or don't use the group.) Usergroups is where a lot of my posts came from, but now it's almost solely in Gaming, Off-Topic, or official articles and videos. And simply put, a lot of the topics here don't interest me as much as before. I come here maybe twice or three times a day, but I'll post maybe five times at most. Before I could easily make over twenty posts a day between user groups and topics.
I dunno what you guys think of me. At first I was a jizzrag, now all I really do on these forums is spout my love for TF2 and classical music, and occasionally go into current events threads posting "What is going on?".

I don't know and frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn...
Other than that, I probably recognize more users here than the amount of users that recognize me by the name not that many can pronounce correctly... (And that goes double if one changes avatars, change their name, and/or came back as another user "entirely"...)

It's extremely rare that I post anything at all....only in these kinds of (rather inconsequential) threads funny enough.
Though I think the combination of my forum name and avvy might stick with some people.

There was a spike in recognition when my daughter was born, but that died down rather quickly. Still, I imagine there's more people who recognize me than I would guess.
