FWIS3

Added for the original reason as well as to list those who posted at FWIS2 but do not appear to be here. Some have already been mentioned:
CiD
Parrot
TSC
Morrolan
Fyn
Mushiwolf (always blew the spelling, sorry)
Cupicake
Bill the Hobo (I'm sure these two can be easily found)
FZ (same footnote)
Sherry? (Oh what's her name from England/Ireland)
KShin (though to my recollection, she hadn't been around in quite a while)
(Wasn't there a guy from Texas who had been posting recently?)

I know there are more. Hopefully others can find them via alternate means and point them back here should they wish to join up. Unfortunately all the emails and phone numbers I had for folks here reside in my old PM's from FWIS2. I'll miss those. I had saved some wonderful PM's from many of you including my last notes with Russ and Mike.

I had dropped PMs to CiD and TSC on CQ/BAUT; I've now dropped one to Parrothead.

There was the "Radical Centrist" IRC and there was I think some guy who was under a handle like "grumpy old man"- his avatar was certainly an old man cartoon at least. They would both post in a flurry and then disappear into the ether. I believe the latter was invited by someone here, no idea where the former came from.

I'm thinking it was Stephanie who was from Ireland.....

Stephanie is from Ireland.
The Grumpy Old Man guy was invited by Loresinger, so I'm hoping she can get in touch with him.
Kshin is no longer welcome here, so don't bother contacting her.
I don't know if Morrolan or Fyn can access the site due to their living in Singapore - although, since we're on a new domain, this might be a bonus for them. I will contact them.
Not sure where the Radical Centrist came from, but for some reason, I'm thinking the Illuminati forum?

g'day, i'm back. can anyone tell me what the fuck happened? SFC gave Fyn and me nearly a heart attack this morning with a cryptic message saying: "We lost everything..." and then we found out it was about FWIS.

Still...

what the FUCK happened?!?!

Long story.
Short story: Low life hacker scum.
Good to see you have access now!

I'm here Thumper.
My life has been a little busy right lately and will be for at least another week.
After that I should be back to normal so God help you all.

I'm pretty certain the word 'normal' and you should never be used in the same sentence.

Soooo sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. But really really glad to see you back. I've missed your avatar.

I think "Grumpy" was the guy I was thinking of from Texas.
And yes, Stephanie not Sherry. Though at one time, I think I remember a "Sherry" also.
I think I mistook/combined Cylinder and the Radical Centrist.
At one time wasn't there a "Buttercup" or something similar? Can't remember how recently.
Good to see you Morrolan, I can now post about Rush way too frequently.
Didn't figure you'd be too far off FZ.

Yes, Buttercup came over from CQ/BAUT, then went away again well before the crash.

Sherry was a barmaid/one of Iky's alter-egos.

Pretty little thing. I love that you remember her as real and not a cyber-chick.

This.

Oh, so next I suppose you're going to tell me Rufus isn't real.

I guess it's all in how you define 'real'.

It won't be FWIS until Sherry and Rufus show up.

Indeed. They've been MIA for far too long.

Lycus?

Lycus went MIA way a few years ago.
I've tried to contact him with every path I knew but I'm pretty sure he just doesn't want to be found.

Sadly I believe this to be true.

I'm back. Thanks to pumpkinpi and Swift for their messages and the link to the new site.

Cheers!

Welcome back! Glad you found us.

Welcome back.
We still have TSC MIA.

He'll find us eventually.

What about Norm? Wasn't he the one that was in the military and spent some time in the desert?

Disregard. Just found Norm was on the site... LOL

You mean, like the norm that has been posting for a while now?
Who is online as shown on the bottom of the board?
