Have not seen @Occam's Banana around for a while.
No sign on X either.
Hope everything is OK.

Ahem! Pronoun, and verb conjugation?? Plural??
=== Edited ===
If we were talking Swordy, then plural may have been appropriate

My choice of third person pronouns for myself is generally irrelevant. I'm not typically involved in the conversations that use them. It's other people referring to me in the third person, usually from a distance. I'm not a conversational partner in those exchanges. Those people could be referring to me as "That A$$hole" or "That Motherfukker" for all I know.
Same.

His most recent post was November 9.
Last time he logged in was the 15th. I'm sure he's just busy with things going on in his life right now.

Anyone have his address can send Officers to his home for a wellness check perhaps?

My pronouns are he/him/his
Great idea!

Cops have an us vs them outlook. It could be dangerous. If you do call in for a wellness check, tell the cops that he's heavily armed so that they feel a companionship with him in the gun bro culture or something like that that I read on NPR's Facebook page..

Definitely AWOL. His pay will be docked accordingly.

Hmm. When did the site start getting slow?
The site began slowing around 11NOV2024.
As far as I can tell, 11NOV2024 was also Occam's Banana last posting: Joe Rogan Experience #2225 - Dave Smith
Do you suppose he's been sucked into the matrix, and that's what's causing the slowdown?

Obviously he left and was not happy. The guy was a constant for a long time. I am confident that he didn't leave without expressing his issue with the powers that be.
I send out loving frequencies for OB as long as he is ok I am ok with whatever has happened or not happened. It could be a lot of things keeping him away.
I wish the powers that be on this site would confirm that he has not been banned. As long as he is alright and not in need of our support right now the rest is none of my business.
If he hasn't been active on X either, it seems more likely that life has interfered with all internets activity. I hope all is well with him. Going dark like this generally isn't a good sign.

Maybe the Feds finally took my reports seriously.

Well, bananas come in bunches.
He is not banned, and "TPTB" don't know anything about his absence. Hopefully he is just taking the holidays off and will return.

Everything is OK ...
... except my computer, for a while. (That's why no RPFs or Twitter posts.)
The thing just shut down on me without warning back on the 9th of November. I couldn't get it to start again, so I figured something on my motherboard might have fried. I have a spare somewhere (as well as another CPU), but I wasn't in any mood to dig it up, disassemble my PC, and reassemble it.
So I just decided to take a few days off. Turned out I liked doing that so much, I decided to go ahead and wait until after Thanksgiving to bother with trying to get things up and running again. And so, here I am ...
(Turns out, I didn't need to rebuild anything. Just to check before I started taking things apart, I cleaned out all the dust inside the case and powered on - and it started right up. So I'm guessing the CPU just overheated and shut itself off before it damaged itself.)
Well, this is embarrassing.
After I decided to wait until after Thanksgiving to deal with things, I downloaded the Twitter app to my phone just so I could post a message to the RPFs moderator group chat to let you guys know what was up (I don't like using my phone for anything but phone-type things, so I've never actually done any Internet stuff on it). After I installed the app, I apparently then proceeded to immediately forget why I had bothered, because as far as I can tell now that I'm back online, I never actually used it to post my message - which was the whole damn point ...
Anyway, I've spent the past few weeks thinking you knew what was up. Sorry about that!
(At one point, I did try using my phone's browser to access RPFs - but as a practical matter, how anyone can stand trying to use websites on a phone is beyond me. I just said "to hell with this" real quick and went back to being contentedly offline for a while longer. /end-cranky-geezerism)
Thank you!
Great idea!

Glad to have you back on board!

Welcome back. Glad to hear it was just a technical glitch.

I thought that would get your attention. Welcome back.

Good to hear it's a technical issue. Bet they still have cheap burner PCs on Black Friday specials...
Damn! Now that insurance money will definitely not pay out!Well, this is embarrassing.

How do we know if this is the real OB? Maybe he was arrested and the Feds put a spy in his place? Maybe it took them this long to crack his highly secure PC. Maybe another welfare check is in order. Use the Sheriffs Department, as they are independent of the Feds...

For some reason the whole “wellness check” thing made me think of the following, especially the gag with the stove.
With friends like these…
