Who says it's great to have Torplexed and Drebbel back?

Onkel Neal · 04-04-11, 09:04 PM

I do! I am glad they are doing well, and it is great to see them on the forum. I know Torplexed and his witty art always make my day--he's a true treasure and a great guy. He helped create much of the website graphics that we still use toady (can't improve on perfection!

). Drebbel has been around Subsim since Year 1, always a gentleman and his posts are thoughtful and clever. Subsim would not be what it is today without the Dutch Sea Lord.

We all have friends and family in real life, but I also value the great people I've met on the web over the last 15 years. Torpy, Drebbel, my life is richer from knowing you.

Now... I wonder where Letum is hiding.

Hmmm

The Third Man gets booted and Torpelexed comes back.

Coincidence?

Aww shucks Neal!

By the way I did finally get your Christmas card last year. Alas, the Postal Service misfiled it.

I, of course called them up in a huff and demanded that all my future mail be misfiled in this manner.

Yee Haw! I concur!

Gargamel · 04-04-11, 10:18 PM

Yes, thanks to Torplexed I have my new Avatar!

yay!

And damn... I wish my mailman looked like that, then I could at least not hate him so much.

Of course it's great to have them back

Where is Drebbel btw? He did pop in a couple of times, but I haven't seen him posting regularly. Here's to hoping he IS back!

Reece · 04-05-11, 12:19 AM

I agree Neal... Just what we need, more spam!!

Welcome back guys!

In that case, you should be home to collect your mail!

Welcome back, your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back to that same old place that you laughed about.
Well, the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they've turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya back here where we need ya?
