Hi GA Community...

As I read over all the old questions, I'm noticing that a lot of the
Researchers that used to answer and comment on questions, are no
longer here.

Do you, as Researchers, know who is still active here or are you as in
the dark as me?

The same goes for commenters. Some of the active ones of yesteryear
are no longer to be seen.

Does anyone else play the "who is present here" game?

Thanks,

Steph53

I miss some of my absent colleagues very much. Quite a few GARs who
used to be quite active have fallen silent in recent times. As far as
I know, no one is ever terminated for inactivity, so there's still a
chance that some of the missing may resurface. That happened recently
with the return of one of GA's very finest Researchers,
websearcher-ga, after a long hiatus.

Why, thank you Pink! I'm blushing. :-)

It's true, Steph53, GA certianly doesn't terminate for inactivity (or
I would have been axed a year ago).

Having been "back" only a couple of weeks I don't have a good idea of
who is here and who is not, but my general impression is that there
are fewer around than there were 18 months ago.

Well, I'm still here ...

And still a mere Commenter ...

'But who is this Steph53', I ask myself ...

'I've never come across her before.'

Well, we're glad you are still here Probono although I wish you were one of the 500.

post, minus this one, and there ya go.

Pink & Websearcher...

Thanks for your feedback. Thats what I noticed too. Lots of the
original GAR'S seem to be AWOL....

Bryan..

Why of course you are still here and a good thing too :)
But...*ahem*:

"But who is this Steph53', I ask myself ..."

Gee and here I always thought I was as charismatic as you....*sob*

Bowler...

I agree with you and vote for probo to become one of the Amazing 500!!!

Respree....

Long time no see..or mabe I just look at and comment on questions
where you did not???

Perhaps someone should open up a new question titled "Role Call for
Researchers and Commenters". Anyone???

Still around - sorta

But some other projects and personal items have to be addressed before
there will be much time for researching answers again.

Cheers

Hi, Bowler

If anyone deserves elevation, it is YOU!

(With a mental age of 4, I'm far too young.)


Hi, Steph

Of course, I remember you ... I was only joshing ... and one of these
days I'll be moseying along to Tulsa to say howdy to you and your
cats.

steph53,
I notice you are a prolific google answers commentator. Why are you so
interested in google answers- sorry no compensation for this question.

Hi Chris10...

In answer ( unpaid of course;) to your question, I've been on this GA
site since June 2002. Its amazing what I've learned from the questions
here. Besides commenting, I've also asked a few questions myelf.

The other reason I love this site is that quite a few researchers, as
well as commenters, kind of form a total offshoot to a question. Most
of us know what area of the world we are from as well as other things.
Its kind of like belonging to a "clique" of amazingly intelligent and
wonderful people.

I hope that answers your question.
No search strategy needed...heheheh:)
