I didn't even notice the website had changed until you all started talking about it. It looks the same to me. Of course, it's possible that that's just because I don't care what the place looks like, as long as I can still worldhop. It does make me wonder if this is the reason we haven't had a virus in a while, though. If that's the case, then I'm glad for the change.

Outside of my training, I've been spending most of my time in New Jersey, because I'm fairly certain that Lisa is the only thing in my life that actually makes sense. I've been thinking about how I'm glad that she isn't on the community anymore, which had made me consider the various things that can happen to people once they leave this place. Perhaps someone should start researching that, too see if any patterns can be found.

Who do you know that has left, and what happened to them?

[unknownrival]

...Haruto Hojo, and I don't know.

[embersandashes]

So they were cut off.

[unknownrival]

He was,

[embersandashes]

I see. That's not as common a thing to happen, from what I've seen. More people are still reachable by worldhop, even if they forget.

[unknownrival]

I've tried that without success.

[hippie_hacker]

Are you referring to those who left over the years or because of the sudden move?

[embersandashes]

The first. The community has kicked people off because of the move? Who?

[hippie_hacker]

....I prefer not to think of those who originally left.

We're not sure if it did or not. It's been voiced though.

[embersandashes]

Why not?

Where?

[notasinglelady]

Lisa never forgot about the comm? Because Blaine did as soon as he lost access to the place.

[embersandashes]

I wouldn't be sitting around posting and acting normal if she had.

[notasinglelady]

[Wow Azula, how very social.] Well..yes, obviously.

[embersandashes]

It even happened once. But then it let her come back.

[redheadcarrier]

Jet. Virginia.

_{[Hmmph. Azula's been here longer than her, but it's been almost four years for Asuka.]}

A lot of people. Who cares what happened to them?

[embersandashes]

It depends on who they are.

[redheadcarrier]

They're gone. That's all that matters, right?

[embersandashes]

Again, it depends. I'm not going to pretend I care that people I barely knew have forgotten about this place, but if someone I loved disappeared, it would be a different story.

Always video;

[hugmyscythe]

I do know that a friend of mine

has left, but he presented me

with some gifts for that Christmas holidaybefore he did so,

as if he knew such a thing

would happen.

Re: Always video;

[embersandashes]

Some people have found themselves able to leave on purpose.

[hugmyscythe]

Of course, I have not contacted him

since then.

[embersandashes]

Then how do you know he doesn't use the community anymore? Christmas wasn't even a month ago.

[hasbottombunk]

Amy got blocked out from the community and then she started to forget about it altogether. I try to remind her sometimes but she can't remember any of it.

[embersandashes]

But she's still contactable? Or is she from your world?

[hasbottombunk]

Same world. She's my wife.

[embersandashes]

Then it's lucky that she didn't disappear.
