TSWers 'missing in action'

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

I haven't recently seen the resident originator of the witty remark and meme, but has anyone heard from HOUSE?  Even a personal note to him via TSW has gone unread.  Last noted here mid September.

*
A couple years back, row_33 was an active contributor.  Similarly went quiet, inquiries via private TSW mail never opened.  I believe he was an accountant in metro Toronto.

HOUSE publicly left the forum.

Thank you for the info.  I missed that.

row was older.  Last visited mid March 2020.

 

Those combined facts do not make me optimistic.

Hey, he's younger than me!  😳🙂

Exchanged many private messages with him regarding the late 70s Toronto music and progressive radio scene.  Always enjoyed ribbing him over his 'soft spot' for Trooper.  (If you have to ask, don't. 😁)

Every post takes a couple minutes off your life.  He was far more prolific than you.

With House I know there was a board emphasis on less use of meme/gif material and that was what most of his posts were.   He was very good at it and is missed.

I too miss HOUSE. Though in defense of the resident moderation these are discussion fora, not an imageboard.  The bulk of one's posting should be text-based.

I hope @Kirby Jackson comes back at some point. Good guy and solid contributor, IMO.

House was one of the better posters, be it through his memes or text opinion offerings, by far.

Very very rarely did I see a HOUSE post and not laugh out loud.

Cold.  Effective, but cold.

 

EDIT: And eerily evocative of HOUSE's contributions. 😁

 

EDIT 2:  And for all intensive purposes, yes I do! 😠

i've mentioned this before, but i think we lost row.  he posted...a lot, and suddenly went dark.  levi is right.  he stopped posting on march 16, 2020, which is the exact day everything got messy and closed down in this area of the world.  i know he was a really big guy, so i just hope covid didn't do him in.  it's always been my assumption for such as sudden stop in posting.

I hadn't seen your previous thoughts on the situation.  Thanks for chiming in now.
