If you stopped posting would people notice?

If you went for a week or two without posting (without prior warning) how much do you think people would respond?

I'd notice you Korr, it's hard to miss your avatar and sig :P

Err, I'd hope some people would notice... I don't start too many topics, but I do post from time to time...

I say that a lot of people would notice.

Particularly since I know that they have noticed my absence when I haven't been on the board for a while.

No. I don't post here enough nor have I posted anything particularly memorable to get peoples attention.

I doubt it would register on the grand scale of things.

You'd be noticed, AV.


I like to think people would notice my disappearance.

Well, I don't start many threads, and don't contribute much relative to my post count, so I'd say the only reason I wouldn't go unnoticed is because I'm usually on almost every day, and an absence of several weeks would get people wondering why I haven't posted anything.

I dunno, you may be noticed, you certainly strike me as a "first one" for posting, but I have spent a week or two off SB.com in the past due to holidays or work and not noticed any threads asking about me. Probably won't be the same here, mind.

Heh, it doesn't really matter, but I guess everyone likes to feel wanted.

I cannot be the judge of whether I'll be noticed as gone missing...

I have a few friends I know personally who post here who would notice, and the STGOD would notice, but besides that?

To quote the Chrono Legionnaire:

"Without a trace!" -WOOOMPH-

With your personality, I think it'd take a fucking idiot not to notice Ein had gone. ;)

I never posted much so I have gone unnoticed.

I'm guessing that I could escape for a week or two without anyone noticing, but after a month people would begin to wonder and probably start a couple threads.

Says you, O ye of the big post count.

I would not discount the possibility of somebody noticing. Even though when I disappeared for over a week nobody seemed to notice. No doubt somebody did, but they just didn't talk about it. And the STGOD people knew what had happened a few days after I was gone, so there's no way of knowing about them.

If I were to be hit by a bus tomorrow, I'm pretty certain it would go unnoticed.

Probably not, I don't post much at all and what I do post isn't exactly memorable.

Actually, I think you'd probably be noticed.
