I was wondering today about a few old posters that either left or I haven’t seen in ages
Riven , eatshitderek (i think that’s what the username was) and another one I can’t remember the full name ghost something who was in temp accommodation I think ?
Does anyone else ever wonder about posters they dont see anymore

Yeah im sure derek was banned. Her last posts were about being heavily pregnant without knowing it then she had a girl and then there was talks of her being banned for some reason. Not sure though seems ages ago.

Loads, but there seems to be a lot of untruths about old posters judging by this thread.

I remember Claig with fondness. He/She/It was totally impossible to upset and used to post the most bonkers tripe about The Elite coming to kill us all in our beds. I think it was proven to be a bit I'm the end but it was pretty extraordinary.

Greensleeves.

Sorry, I meant 'proven to be a bot'.

I am obviously not a bot because I am too shit at typing.

i alwaysthough Stratters would look like Patsy Kensit. Neat & manicured.

NeverTwerkNaked · 13/06/2020 22:25

Riven definitely. I came on to say her Smile

Definitely LaQueen, totally fabricated but gloriously so!

I think a lot of people changed names or left when the daily mail started scouring the threads all the time.

@WinnieWonder

Or yes maryz was nice.

Some posters who stick with a name over the years become untouchable with makes them post a bit imperiously over time.

Where's the evidence that the talk guidelines apply differently to those who don't name change?

I haven't seen Pagwatch for a long time. She was always so on-the-nose, but pleasant with it.

HunkyPunk · 13/06/2020 22:29

The first thread I ever remember from many years ago - details a bit hazy now - was about a school PTA, lemon drizzle cake and involved cunt bunting! Think the op was MarmaladeTwatkins. Very entertaining poster. Got me hooked, anyway!

dreamingbohemian · 13/06/2020 22:30

who was the long-term poster who bragged for years about her amazing life in central London, and then someone resurrected a zombie thread which accidentally proved she was a troll?

I think that was the most satisfying MN arc ever. She annoyed so many people.

TrickyTreeLou. Would love to know how she is.

Redshoeblueshoe · 13/06/2020 22:30

I've not seen BetrandRussell for a while

CanIDigIt · 13/06/2020 22:31

I miss Catthief Keith and Zombie - both of whom I met 💜

Dunno where Mrz has gone from Primary either....

There's so many old crew must be using a new name. I am because MN couldn't fix their own tech problems and unlock my 14 year old username.

Expat was lovely too, haven't 'seen' her in ages.

I NC all the time since the hacking but it's great to see some old names.

We all loved Maryz.

selfishteenagers · 13/06/2020 22:32

Was it Derek who had a baby with her gardener or was that someone else it sounds familiar

I remember shirleyknott as I couldn't stand her

PurpleDaisies · 13/06/2020 22:34

I remember odd socks. There were done lovely posters on the SN boards who left around the same time but I’m really bad with names.

Wizadorawobble · 13/06/2020 22:35

BuffytheReasonableFeminist - She always came across as such a lovely person, very clever. I loved the tangents she would wander off into.

Reminded me of AnyFucker a bit.
