Have you ever went absent on PC?
I have. 20 VMS WTF 10 PMS WTF
So, have you? Be truthful~ |
Yes... but that was all back before either January or July of 2009.
|
During most summers I go semi-inactive due to having no internet, but I still log on at least once a week, so technically, no, I don't consider myself to have ever taken an extended leave of absence from PC.
|
Until I became a moderator, I don't recall anything. The only reason I'm able to recall things that happened after is because anytime I thought about leaving, or officially left, I made a thread about it in the staff forum dedicated to leave of absences from staff members.
According to this screenshot, I've went absent from PC eleven times. Though, I doubt that's accurate. I don't remember much about things in the past when it comes to PC, but I don know that most of the time when I take a LoA, I end up coming on more than I do originally. |
I don't think I have.
I didn't post anywhere for like a year though, if that counts. >: |
Yes. :3
It was last summer, because we moved. |
I was gone for a little over a month from the end of August to the Beginning of October 2009 if I remember correctly. I just didn't like it here anymore so I took a break. Then I came back for a couple more months and ended up leaving for a week (I don't remember when) and now I'm here again. Although lately I've been semi off and on until today.
|
Several times, actually. I recall one from mid-2005, right after I dropped off from the staff, through summer 2006, then one from a week later up until sometime in 2007, and then from another week later up until I made this account in Summer of 2009. XD
Oh, and I forgot...Mid-October '09 through early January '10 because I had my internets stolen from me by the evil ISP people. D: |
Nick, your blurring abilities aren't so good, I can still make out some of that text. XD
Um. January.. 12ish 08 -> February 18th 08 cause I decided to leave. Um, also January 2010 I left for about two weeks. Other times don't really count. Oh and when I had a virus in 06, it was about for a month. Then there's.. the storm, which was about 9 days inactivity. Pretty much I've been here since I've joined. :( |

I've moved several times during my stay on PC, each of which left me without a computer from anywhere between one week to several months. I'd try to access anytime I could, but even that was hard sometimes. I think the longest time between logins due to moving was something like a month? You don't want to know how many VMs I had when I finally got back to somewhat regular activity and turned my VMs back on...
Leaving PC of my own choosing? I think I've taken like a week break before, but even then I lurked. >>;; Not counting the few months between me registering and me actually sticking around PC for good. |
Yep. From June last year until about this time last month. I lost internet and then we moved house, so it was an absence that was out of my control.
I can't remember how many VMs/PMs I had when I got back but it certainly wasn't 20 or 10 xD |
I have been inactive for long periods of time. The first was when I signed up. I didn't start being active after that untill mid 2007.
Other times is because of no internet and no computer. So yeah... |
Whenever I go on holidays and can't get to a computer I'm usually in that situation.
|
I think I've made a couple of 'on holiday' or 'study time' posts, but I haven't left officially or anything. The other times it's just that I got a little bored of PC and went onto other forums for a bit, so I was lurking here.
|
Only once I think, since I was going to my nan's in the country for about two weeks and she didn't have a computer back then?
|
Yes, I have. At first, I never planned on taking a prolonged break from this site. I tried my best to stay active everyday. However, things lead to another, and I had no choice but to go on hiatus.
Sometimes, I would miss Pokecommunity and stalk some of the threads in the OVP or OT section. At other times, I would just read the blogs and try to remember the memory I had with that person, if there was any. Thank goodness that I never said that I was leaving for good. Pokecommunity is too addicting for me to just quit now. Besides, what about the friends I had made during my stay here? They're the reason why it's so fun coming on Pokecommunity. The conversations I had with some of them are truely memorable. Even if I did leave this site for good, then at least I still have contacts from here on Skype. ♥ |
I am currently absent from PC as ironic as it may sound. I just come here for the nostalgia. I was just watching my old posts from the time I was just another n00b to my time as an AA. I want to cry so hard, hahaha.
|
For 8 months :D
and I went absent 6 months on three forums I was moderating; two of them died because I was holding it together :| one is still there, and I'm still a gMod for 5k members XD wo0t I got spammed in my Hotmail "COME BACK WE'RE WORRIEEDDD" and on ANOTHER popular forum, there was a topic I made and everyone was like "OMFG SHE'S BACKKK <333" :P |
Yes, I went inactive for 4 months. I got bored of PC. :U But I came back in March of this year, and have made some great new friends. Which means I shall not go inactive again. <3
|
Um... yeah, I vanished for almost two years. Back in 2007 I joined quite a few forums, and I guess that this was one of those that never caught on. I made like two posts and then was gone.
I don't know what brought me back. |
Taking long leaves from PC (or most any online hangout) is normal for me. On PC I recall at least 4. The two between the creation of each of my accounts and the two during this account's tenure (one only a couple months after its creation and one from late last summer or something up until this month).
Leaving a place for a long while doesn't always have some kind of reason behind it, but often it's due to personal things sucking my interest out of things or just general boredom/loss of interest/sudden distaste for a place. I almost never announce a leave beforehand (and don't announce comebacks; I just come back) 'cause announcing something tends to make it not happen. I'm kind of a wanderer at times and leave places a lot, but tenure and nostalgia will always eventually bring me back. |
i always am absent for at least 1 week then i am back
|
Once, for exactly one month. It was in July-August 2009, when I didn't go on the computer that much. xD Otherwise, I've been here pretty much everyday. xD
|
When my username was Sydian last year, I wasn't around a lot. I hated introducing myself as "Hi, I'm Syd, but you may know me as SilverSmeargleSplatter" and what not. So I just didn't get online and waited to change my name back to SSS. Haha. But I was also gone for about two or three weeks just recently because I was grounded. Needless to say, it was quite a boring few weeks.
