TJ Brodie's aunt was also a pretty good, positive poster in the game threads. I knew she would probably leave after Brodes was traded. I always appreciated her input.

I think she usually pops by and says hi anytime TJ was playing against the flames (after the trade). I remember briefly chatting with her in a GT while he was with the leafs

I'm always curious about what leads people to just drop the forum all at once after being a regular. Just because even if you made a conscious choice, new habits just don't kick in that fast typically.
But particularly when your fandom for the team persists and you want to react to developments with the team somewhere.
You'd have to switch over to reddit or hf at least (ew).
Feels like it has to be a crisis or losing internet access, which in a sense qualifies as a crisis.
In rare cases like with BigBrodieFan, the family member changing teams makes a whole lot of sense to suddenly quit. But thats pretty darn rare.

Probably something similar to a self banning.

I think the leaving is the breaking of a habit. At least thats what it would be for me.

I just realized I hit the 20 year mark yesterday and I suddenly feel old AF.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you too!
