A lot of boardies have come and gone over the years. Sometimes they conspicuously vanish overnight; some of them just fade away. And some of them got banned in the midnight hours when nobody was looking and I thought I could get away with it.
This thread is to memorialize those of us who outgrew this place, or to reminisce about the notorious bastards who got run out on a rail. Maybe if we say something nice about them, they'll find it while doing a vanity search on Google and we'll get a couple of them back.

I was thinking about bradberad just recently. He was always one of the best of us; he was well-rounded, level-headed and he didn't take no shit. I met him once just briefly at Sasquatch 2011; we watched Das Racist for a couple minutes and burned one down together. He was one solid dude.

Brad do indeed be rad. He brought me dill pickle chips but then got stoned and ate them before he found me. I salute this.

I posted something about swimming once and he sent me a bunch of tips! We both swam competitively at one time! I think I met him last year, and he is indeed very rad.

Also Weak Shit -- one of out greatest losses. I'm about at the point where I've stopped holding out hope for that fucker to come back.

Stampy still pokes his head in every now and then, and I reckon he'll be back when the Coachella machine starts rumbling. I think the dude is just utterly over Sasquatch, and his highly logical mind can't reconcile hanging out on the board if he doesn't plan on ever going to the festival again.
...unlike 20% of our regulars, who haven't been to Sasquatch since 2008.

I mentioned it a couple of weeks ago, but has anyone noticed that newjersey hasn't been back since his 999th post? He threatened to leave after his 1000th, but apparently he skipped town early.

I did notice that. It seems equally likely that he'll either come back with a mind-melting 1000th post or else never come back at all. Either way, I'm pretty sure he's done.
newjersey was a funny dude and one of our better posters, but I'll be honest I was a little weirded out that he was lurking in the vicinity of the group for probably a good long time at Sasquatch this year and he never said anything. He sent me a picture of Stormy that he took from less than five feet away in broad daylight -- it was creepy.

Fox hasn't been since 2011. That's basically 2008 in Sasquatch time.

Well. I'VE never seen them, and I was there.
Don't try to confuse me with the facts.

Is anyone still friends with snorlax on Facebutt? That girl is the definition of a trainwreck. I want to unfriend her since there's really no point keeping her around, but she constantly posts these ridiculous pictures that I can't help look at like an accident on the side of the road.

I unfriended Snorlax just last week. I put it off for a long time, but lately there has been a lot of weird and vaguely racist stuff creeping out of her posts. I don't remember what it was, but she posted something very recently and I was this close to jumping in with a What the fuck dude, that is not appropriate but then I decided there was no point and just dropped the axe.
I'm sure I'll be hearing from her about it soon. Whatever.

I must have missed it. I never read her posts, but those pictures that show up in the news feed are impossible to miss. I'm sure I'll end up following your lead soon enough.

I made a comment on the board a couple months ago about how I was mildly relieved that she wasn't coming to this year's festival because she seemed intent on camping with us and I wasn't down with babysitting her or anyone else. A couple days later I get a message from her on Facebutt all pissed off and being like 'Just because I left the board doesn't mean I don't still read everything you all say' or something. I was like, well dude I wasn't intending to talk behind your back because if you had asked I would have told you the same thing.
It was kind of weird.
HI SNORLAX WHAT UP
