So, it´s like work. People go to their work from Monday to Friday (even Saturday) and finally have Sunday for them to relax, isn´t it?

When Georgakis stopped showing up

When DefenderX stopped showing up.

When GabrielBelmont/Duke Nukem stopped showing up.

When DacoTaco stopped using his admin powers to raise his post count.

I didn't see any of those make a dent.

I saw MASSIVE reduction in both googlecode and forum use after:
-Dolphin stopped supporting vs2008 (we used to have a section of the forums for user compiled builds and this pretty much went dead silent after this happened)
-The community moved to the new website (and the mammario bs ensued)
-Dolphin switched from svn to git
-Probably other stuff

I notice that too......

I think it has more to do with the fact that if I'm not around to answer stuff it will eventually get answered by other people. So there is less to reply to.

Self-employed or through a company?

Cutting ICs is never a good idea....

Or they participate in more interesting hobbies. Or socialize. Or work. Those are far more likely.

Except for people who work weekends.

What did they say was wrong with the paper? Did it have a formal grading rubric or was it based on approval by a committee?

You know what would fix that? A better computer.

Yes. Streaming from a gaming desktop in my bedroom to the HTPC in the living room would be great.

Say hello to my newest pet: (Show Spoiler)

He's not chipped and I was unable to locate an owner after asking around the neighborhood so he's mine now. He's not feral so somebody must have owned him at some point before he escaped. He's been vaccinated and he is 4-5 months old according to the vet. Very nice and very playful. It's been a month since I found him and he lives indoors now.

Or they don't respond seriously to joke responses *hint hint* :p

[NaturalViolence]

Or they got the joke and just wanted to comment anyways because they haven't had a chance to read through the thread in a week.....

Aww you got a little buddy. Even if they are feral and you get them when they are young enough you can "train" them to trust you and they can be the most loving creatures, in fact a little too loving in some cases. My mother has been taking feral kittens in, socializing them and finding them homes. It's tough to see cute kittens running around then find them dead because the weather was too cold or they got ran over by a vehicle. As for the older feral cats my mother puts out food for them.

Or they could avoid making statements that don't fit a given context and not comment at all.

I'm getting ads for a Chinese dating site on here now. Is that Google's way of telling me I watch too much pr0n?

That's the way to show you how Google is hijacked by other companies :p

Or rather paid by

For ages Dolphin's website showed me adverts for purchasing a Russian bride. At that time we were on MaMario's site, so Ijust assumed they were because MaMario didn't mind ruining a perfectly good forum to maximise ad money.
