Hendrix Kat - did he ever get his teeth fixed at our expence?
Cobb - what California institution is he currently incarcerated in?
Tangible Assets Galleries - what ever became of their lawsuit against us?

I'm sure other MIA membernames will occur to me later.
I remember a little of the CoinCob, not much.
TAGZ lawsuit? Don't remember that, but I vaguely remember being rudely snubbed at their table at the first FUN show I attended.
HendrixKat was the first in a long line of forum scavengers. A bottom feeder.
TAGZ would best be explained by TDN, that was one of the most interesting posts I've read here.
Scotteo, now that was an original forum classic
Askari

I remember Keith from a fun competition we were having building a PCGS Type set. It was the 1900's type set and he was going pure MS. He was a good guy.
I thought Askari was a darkside guy? I didn't venture over there much and didn't know he was no longer posting. He seemed like a good guy.
How about Doops? It was hard for me to take him seriously.
Fortunately many tolls are gone. Some of them did cause quite a fuss. I try to ignore that stuff, but sometimes it is hard to avoid it all.
<< <i>I thought Askari was a darkside guy? I didn't venture over there much and didn't know he was no longer posting. He seemed like a good guy. >>
Not just a Darkside guy, but THE Darkside guy. The onetime king of the Darksiders. Gone but not forgotten. Or in lurk mode. As far as I know, he still breathes, but has been a phantom for a year or so. Maybe he will return. Hail the Once and Future King.
(Actually, his title is "The Darkside Sorceror", if I recall correctly.)
Askari was a very big fish in a then-small pond. I can remember the heady days when even yours truly was thought to be nobility on the Darkside. Now the pond is bigger and I'm a smaller fish. The Darkside has grown considerably over the years.
Oh, here's another one for you: TJennings, aka "TJ", to those of us who haunted the Open Forum. He was the mascot and whipping boy of the Open Forum long before Cammie was. He was also the founder of the Metal Detecting Forum, which was a barren, desolate place, devoid of all but tumbleweeds, for a long time. It's still small but has grown considerably, mostly from some of my own cheerleading and recruitment. I still get to be a big fish somewhere.
<< <i>Whatever happened to Danegeld? He always posted some pretty cool raw classic coins. I liked him. >>
Danegeld was a good guy, but like a comet. Came in fast, shone brightly, and vanished.
I remember both things nwcs just mentioned.
As for Danegeld, I don't know that I would classify him ever as "shone brightly" but think the term "flamed quickly" is much more appropriate.

Well, yeah, perhaps I overpraised him but he was a nice guy, anyway.
I noticed Dog97 has been absent a while. I've seen several folks crop up with the bulldog icon, though.
Dog97 was neat. I think his spot on the Alabama coast was destroyed by storms (before this year's batch).
Some people lose the passion to collect after a while...
The PMM guy was Pat McNulty in real life, presumably. Forget all his forum names, now. I think 'LUCKOFTHEIRISH" was one.
He was a loon, but not a bad fella for a nutcase. I grew to like him a bit, actually.
How about Shinycoinboy? Who can forget the image he created of him riding a donkey throwing shiny coins to the adoring children.
<< <i>Hendrix Kat - did he ever get his teeth fixed at our expence? >>
paul usually I enjoy your posts, but I did not need to be reminded of this clown. That whole teeth trip not only me cost 100.00, but got me tons of free flack from the forum police, who just this one time I shouldve listened to. Shaun made me so jaded, I will never get involved in helping anyone in that manner again.
heres one of his last pm's to me:

BILL - I really am hurt by al the negative responses of the members. I swear on my MOTHER'S GRAVE that I did not pull any scam or lie or deceive anyone in this great forum. I commend YOU for your idea of starting a collection - which I had no inadvertent intention of creating. I did so much for this board and now everyone hates me. I truly did not mean to offend anyone or pull a guilt trip. I composed the member information list of 125 members and had my chat room for the members and ran the Coin Swap 2 with 45 members of this board and organized a TRIBUTE to all the VETERANS of the forum with coins being sent to them. I did all this on my own time and for the forum - not for me. Then I have the tooth problem and tell the board whom I thought were my friends - and I got destroyed from it. Many members offered to send me coins for the other things I have done - and I ALWAYS declined and never ever accepted a gift of coins from any members. I only accepted what YOU did for me, because the people who contributed were under no obligation and did so from the heart I presumed. I surmise I am the bad one for accepting or presuming generosity from the heart.
God Bless,
Shawn
he only accepted what I did, because it was a quick check to the tune of almost 1K...still turns my stomach
oh and paul, was only joking about your posts

Especially Coincobbler... I butted heads with that guy a handful of times. He had issues with me because of my age at the time (16-17) and that I was always asking questions that i apparently shouldn't have been or something. Involved lots of nasty pm's from him.
I remember hendrixkat too and his chat room.
Hard to believe that was 5 years ago already.
Jeff

I also dabble with the darkside
Ive recently gotten more into currency, especially modern star notes

oh... Nevermind
he's a good guy
How could you guys forget CC2K?
Richard Green was a phantom that read all the posts. He had the #1 of all time mint state Kennedy sts. First class all the way. Helped and educated many. Must have felt sorry for me and took me under his wing. Spoke with him daily for a couple years. Refused to come here after seeing all the bashing. Many times by the idiots that were banned, or, listed here so far.
How about Blue Moon Coins? Or, the girl from there with her posts and E-bay photos/ads? Boy, she sure got a lot of attention!
I dodn't recall LabLover being here in awhile either.
that Lanlord is missing.
did someone finally run over that double-hip-replaced, sorry ass of his? ...wish I could get my second hip done, it's killing me.
would be sorry to hear if somebody po'd the pedaler.
I brought this up mainly because I see "Kat" is up to his old games again on the BST boards.
I am still looking for a more in depth thread on him so those newer members will have an idea of who they are dealing with.
seems to me he rode around in the desert in an old van, fixing airconditioners.
