Where are they now???!

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Where are they now???!

Ok, this thread probably won't concern most of you but feel free to join in if you've got some input. I have recently returned (well what a strange concept) after a long hiatus of absence and was wondering what became of the many strange straggly lot that provided such and entertaining experience back in the early days of TLR. Here's a list of the people I remember and perhaps this list isn't complete but I just thought I'd run through it and see what information we have. (Note: this isn't to slight any of the current members of TLR that are actively contributing to it today).

In no particular order:
Mad Dog?
ElectricBrain (Still admin and apparently still checks in fairly frequently).
Peet-Air?
Eraser (C&C...quite a promotion my man. I remember the day you joined like it was yesterday...only it wasn't. ).
Tachyon (Recently returned and checks in every once in a while).
RubberEagle?
Spear?
Arcon (He's back and he's bad...as always).
Boscoe (The infamous evil April Fool's joker...may he suffer severe pain for his 'joke' ).
Doyler? (used to head worldofgamers.com?)
MinisterPhobia (banned and founder of Geekorgy.com now defunct)
Pieman?
Bargib (What became of the venerable founder?)
Hellcat?
Shlozza?
Scupmeister?
Stinger (Still admin...checks in regularly).
FearFactor?
Mustang? (Still remember the Brute Force sig you did, man...)


Hmm I think I've forgotten a large number of people...oh well. Let's here what we know.








Merc for hire...but only if you can afford it.

Welcome back Major Striker, I joined up in Feb '03 and I recall you being around but not for long!

EB has only just arrived back from a long hiatus himself from what I've seen. I think it may have been due to a pesky girlfriend!

Last I heard from Mustie he's been having troubles accessing a lot of websites at work these days. (He's a mod now, if you didn't know)

Fear Factor (also a mod) moved to Indonesia, he's here from time to time.

I remember RubberEagle and Spear. They've shown up every once in a while, only briefly and then left.

You forgot Zeratural! He disappeared and has made one or two brief reappearnces but he's never stuck around.

Many of the other names, I at best only vaguely recognise, they may still be hanging around other forums, but I think many have left.

Hellcat is over at the wolfpack forums if I remember rightly.
Rubbereagle worked on the bab mod - but I haven't heard of any progress since I last visited the site some months back......and I didn't notice any new posts by himself. I don't know if he is still working on the project or not

Tach, EB etc drop in from time to time, and Stinger is on holiday at the moment. Eraser is about, but these last few weeks he has been pretty busy - so he has literally popped up and disappears again. No doubt he will be on again this weekend

Another who drop out, is Zlo.

Post Sat Apr 02, 2005 2:03 am

Let's see....

Mad Dog: I'm not sure really, he just vanished without a trace really.
ElectricBrain: Yeah, Nels still pops in and out frequently.
Peet-Air: Some story as MD really, have no clue where he went.
Eraser: Yes, quite a promotion indeed. Brings a whole heap of responsibility though And yes, it does feel like yesterday that I joined!
Tachyon: Indeed, Andrew is still around.
RubberEagle: He pops in sometimes, usually when he has some news about the B5 TC Mod.
Spear: Don't know really, vanished without a trace afaik.
Arcon: Will luckely is still around indeed
Boscoe: Yep, Doug is still alive and kicking and checking the forums.
Doyler: Haven't seen him in a long time.
MinisterPhobia: Haven't seen him in a long time.
Pieman: Haven't seen him in a long time.
Bargib: I still talk to him pretty often and he still does certain things for TLR so now and then.
Hellcat: Yeah, I think he's with Wolfpack now as far as I remember.
Shlozza: I've seen him a while back if I remember correctly.
Scupmeister: Haven't seen him in a long time.
Stinger: Now on holiday, but yes he's still very active, but not so much in the forums anymore, he's more helping me and bp out with the new plans and coding.
FearFactor: In Indonesia now, but still pops in frequently as you can see
Mustang: Haven't seen Michael in a while, hope he's alright.
Zeratural: Well, what can I say... seems he drops in so now and then, don't know what to think of it really.

Glad to have you back MS!

wow, those names were a blast from the past. Super Saiyen!!!
i remember me, striker, spear and saiyen going to buy an outpost or cruiser in freelancer and use it for piracy.

I miss that nutty jew.

Tachyon was a legend, and Mad Dog made me the attitude demon i am today. He buggered off after a clan war, shame, he was still my favorite. I used to post pages of tripe to impress him. My mentor He had the coolest sig.

Eb, you were classic when you were posting. EB and gibby just ran the show in my eyes, when they said jump, i was already airborne.

Mad Dog, I hope you're kidding. Send me an email, let me know, k?

Scupmeister is the one who started the whole "Alka-Bird" thing. Still hear from Rubby now and then. He did dozens of Starlancer ship mods.
Then there's Tryst, he used to be fun to have around. Let's see, ah, so long ago, can't think of the names. I'll edit the post when they come back.

I "disappeared" for over a year, did kinda what EB is doing now, reading the forums and checking the site, but staying away. Now, I come back and piss-off everyone Well, I have a warped sense of humour, what can I say?
