Always interesting to read through an older thread and come upon a series of :p'd posts - where often, a once contributor has attempted to just vanish... A brigade of :ps hold the places but not the context of what was. Armies of :ps populate the back rooms of Lit. Just as often though, the 'vanish' is but varnish. Other's quotes then of the redacted posts show who had once been here and what they had once said. Elusive, definitive vapour trails in a cloud chamber remain. Odd fragments define who and what one was. If at some point you were quotable, chances are, you can never really leave.

Quoting another's post can be homage or referential towards a greater point. "Quoted for Posterity" becomes the ultimate defense against a poster's self editing and is often applied as a weapon. Both have left this odd legacy with nearly forgotten names in mostly forgotten battles leaving barely perceptible stories of posters who once were.... more than :ps?

The forensics are interesting. That's all. To stumble upon a legion of frogs - to catch glimpses of once prolifics - to misremember their stories and downfalls(?) to :pdom....

In the current context, a great crafty redaction (no doubt soon to :pdom) is in process. In time, a great deal of the legacy will be obscure. I was tempted to dredge up a legion or two of the once luminary to pique at our innate prurience but uhhh... well?
 
Ah, a purging in the process.

Say it ain't so.

For it erases the History.
 
From the pages of Lit but not from our memories.
.....Or are our memories short?

Not mine. :p

Is Kraft turning to :p now? Back in the old days, Laurel would wipe out a poster's entire career at Lit by putting all :p in place of posts. She supposedly won't do that anymore, you need to do it on your own if you want to get rid of old posts.

I've always owned what I've written here. I know in ways that that might be romantic, but... it gives consequence to each time I push the "submit reply" button. I don't know why - at least to me - that the "history" has value. To fuck with it is... It makes this place too "wiki". Call me a purist.

And yes! Our memories are short and faulty... It's why a "history" has value. What has transpired here is a record with all kinds of aspects...

Go back and follow a frog line or two... There are names and stories that you probably recognize - story lines that you may have contributed into...?

Why are frogs so happy?

They eat whatever bugs them.
 
I occasionally edit for grammar or spelling fuck ups, apart from that I'll own what I writ.

Interesting to see the Taltos' and Tristesse's of this world...won't.

I don't know this other than hearing the scratch-scratch-scratchings of a tom cat trying to hide a log on a marble floor. And, having never had to avail myself of the LandM-doings, I don't know what can and won't be done. Self frogs are common. The blanket ones were too.

Ever since I've had her tied up in my basement.
 
I think ShrimpsnPeas was the last to be frogged. And then she came back and posted again also.
