Filo! Great to see you again! Not sure if it's your bad vibes, but right now there's lots of sorrento-ing going on on my laptop. Effing annoying.

How do, filo! Did you get your hands on that Bowie box set? : ) I've got a whole load of Bowies, but probably not the kind you're talking about.......

Welcome aboard I’m afraid there’s only malted milk and rich teas until we do a big shop.

Top of the list, just behind the world’s favourite biscuit, the Jaffa cake.
Backs away slowly from the incoming torrent

Did anyone find out who loislane is? There's a couple of other names that are unfamiliar, nsfw and seanmulligan. They're obviously members of the ex-forum* but who were they when they were posting there?
*bereft of life, it rests in peace, etc.

While it is indeed likely that those unfamiliar names are people that we knew in another place under different names, I don't go as far as saying that it's certain.
RLDavies did say that she was going to mention this forum in another place where she goes, and other people may well have done similarly. So they could be people that we've never met before - although the mysterious loislane was here so early that she probably isn't.

I believe loislane is a long time lurker who joined because the forum wasn’t fully public at the time. NSFW is a previous forum member, not sure who seanmulligan is.

Hi all... Nsfw here. I was a member of the old forum under a different name but didn't post much, mainly due to being more of a once-a-day dipper into the warm pool of the QI forum. It's hard to have conversations on that timescale.
If there was an original member with this username then I am not they... I'm happy to change my username if it causes confusion.

If you can tell what your old username was, that would make it easier.

Sorry, I thought I'd replied to this but obviously not.
I'm not sure how it will make things easier, but for what it's worth I think my old username was ClimberPhil.

Hello folks! I hadn’t posted on the old forum for a long time, but I used to pop in for a lurk to see how you were all doing from time to time. I got all nostalgic for our civilized* chats earlier, dropped onto the forum and found we’d been closed down! So I thought I’d come over and rejoin the friendly throng. I doubt anyone remembers me, but I know you all, and am pleased to see your virtual smiling faces.
I’m looking forward to dropping by regularly. Now, where’s that pot of Earl Grey? I’ve brought brownies.
*well, mostly…

Thanks Suze! Lovely to see so many of the regulars still here, and with the reassuring hands of you and Jenny on the tiller.

Pinklady! Funnily enough, I thought of you a few weeks ago when I listened to the Eddie Izzard episode of RHLSTP again. I think this place will manage to stay civilized. The majority* of awkward bastards/argumentative shits have either declined to join us or been hit with the ban-hammer. *I say "majority". You know who you are!

I remember you Pinklady! I wrote a limerick for you/about you while recovering from pneumonia!

I remember you pinklady! And it's nice to be thought of as "reassuring" rather than "that crazy old..."

Ah, how nice of you all! Glad to see you’re hale and hearty and living your dream in Wales, Crissdee. And Bondee, you look exactly like I imagined I’m still listening to RHLSTP too, and my last comedy night out was to Richard Herring’s current show. Jenny - show me who said that and I’ll sort them out with a hard stare. Honestly, almost every other online space has become so genuinely toxic that I was nostalgic for QI, and it is balm for the soul to be back among you. I don’t spend as much time online now but I will make the effort to come here when I can.
