He logged on about 2 weeks ago, but hasn't posted in over a year. Liked his NAME threads.

I noticed that Japan or Marky was not mentioned here. [:D]
Who was the biggest trouble maker in the history of the Matrix forums? I remember years ago we had one guy named Olaf or something like that a who gave Erik headaches and he was always confused with another player of the same name that was a productive member here.

Oh yes....There have been some troublemakers...need not mention them, but a few of us are convinced "Japan" used at least 3 other names to get in here..No honor...no integrity....

Marky was FUN! In a kid sort of way.
Who was the guy that was a big Bismark fan?

I suspect he may have eventually developed into the sort of troll we have now. But he didn't come to the forum with the intention of being "nasty". Most of the current bunch started out nasty (with their own axes to grind) and got considerably worse. [:(]

Marky was bi-polar and admitted so. I can cut him a little slack.

I'm not so sure. I played several PBEM's and had several long chats with him , as well as many ,many long emails. A bi-polar person on meds ( from my experince with them, but I'm not a medical person) can be as normal as anyone. Marky made it pretty clear to me that he really got off on setting people off. That's pretty troll like to me. [8|]

I haven't seen Scott1964 in a long time. We were playing a WITP game when AE came out and mutually decided to focus on AE and drop the game. He was a wild attacker!

Speaking of "forumites MIA," I was just about to name TopofEverest last week, but saw him in the forums before I could do so. Glad to see him back.
GreyJoy and rader have gone underground. I think they'll be back, but the length of their absence is pretty long.
Nemo is taking a sabbatical which may or may not be permanent, but I miss his contributions and thoughts.

Marky was my first PBEM. Turns started getting erratic and just sort of mutually ended after three or four months. He did post some pics of him on a B17 ride a while back.
Troll - Someone looking for fight. Posts something completely outrageous knowing a flame war will ensue.
Lurker - Reads the forums but doesn't post or posts irregularly.

I think he talked about it in some of his posts. It has been a while though. He could have been gaming us on that as well..

Actually, I didn't think that any of those named in the original post had "left" (with the possible exception of Top of Everest, who I haven't seen in weeks or months).
From what I've seen the AE forum is alive and well. There seems to have been a remarkable influx of newcomers in the past few months. These are the guys (and gals?) that will morph into regulars. Here's hoping we'll be finding the next GreyJoys already in our midst!
One of the newcomers here and Greyjoy is half of the reason.
I found this game while on a search for a decent tactical WW2 naval game after having a episode of Great Naval Battles nostalgia.
Initially doubtful due to the micro and cost I started reading Greyjoy's AAR. About 30 pages in i decided it was worth a go and three months later i'm still playing on a almost daily basis.
Almost feel like i have a clue what i'm doing...almost.
