I miss M0m0shir0 the most. He's intelligent, knowledgeable, and friendly. And I refuse to use past tense, because I'm hoping we'll see him again.

He was one of my favourite posters on tennis.com. For all the reasons you stated + he was a Murray fan. Always a plus in my book. :)

Bombadill was the one I was thinking of. I really enjoyed reading posts from that poster.

Objectively speaking, Haelfix and M0m0 are in my opinion, the two most knowledgeable posters we have/had, from a pure tennis perspective. It's easy to tell the difference between those who think they understand the game (cough*NadalIsACounterPuncherAndAllCounterPunchersPreferSlowerSurfaces*Cough), and those who really understand it. Those two IMO were huge assets to our forums, and managed to post with very minimal bias, confrontational attitudes (which many of us are guilty of), agendas and meaningless arguments.

It's a shame Haelfix rarely posts and M0m0 suffered a similar fate to that Malaysian plane.

Tennisman was a good fella. He may have been the ultimate Rafa' homer but he was respectful to the Fed and the Djoker fans.

I always enjoyed Momo's posts and also Didi was a great poster.

Yes…I wonder where Didi went? And everyone misses Momo. We tried hard to find him when we made the move. Hopefully he finds us again one day. I also miss Derek Zoolander. He had an off-kilter sense of humor.

He registered last year, but hasn't been here since late October.

I miss Messagesent and gongoozler from the forums of tennis.com.

M0m0's absence leaves a huge void, he is articulate, knowledgeable and very rarely ruffled by anyone.

Haelfx has posted here a few times, but he's missed.

Pennywise, ElegantRoger, INOUNVME, Sampras_fan... not as much.

Same here, lads, re messagesent and the Gongoozle. I think Gongoozler was an elderly chap, was he?

I loved M-sent's posts. He was a huge fan of serve-volley, and I remember sharing a lot of pm's with him, about this but also tennis in general - including the sneaky club tennis approach shot, the moonball! :snigger

:laydownlaughing All right I'm not the best person in the world at wording thread titles :cover
Someone tell me what to say and I'll change the title. I think we can do that here?

The title is fine. No need to change it. They're just joking around. :)

Nice to see you, Rose.

^^I really miss him! At first I just thought maybe he wasn't posting because his "fav" wasn't in a Tournament. But she is back playing, but he is not back posting!

Where is Broken Shoelace? I haven't seen him around much. I always enjoyed reading his posts.
