The number of people participating in KotF has been kind of small so far this year so this challenge is based on that. Looking back over the history of the forums (or at least as much of it as you were around for), which currently missing or inactive members would you most like to see return and why? Winners will be based solely on which posts I like the best.
First Prize: 30 points
Second Prize: 20 points
Third Prize: 10 points

Re: KotF 2013 Bonus Challenge #1
I would like to see Atma-kun come back. He was one of my better friends in the early years, and posted a TON of stuff in the game time section, and made a lot of interesting threads himself

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Re: KotF 2013 Bonus Challenge #1
Hmm...tough choice, but I would like to see Metalheadz come back. He was one of those guys that, if I was just on randomly one day, I might see a few new post in the Games section from him. It would give me something to do and have fun while playing the various games. Other then that, he was a pretty cool guy. Funny and pretty radical in my book (not that anyone else here is not radical. To me, everyone deserves to be called radical at some point!), and had interesting things to post and say.

Re: KotF 2013 Bonus Challenge #1
Of course there are oodles of people who I'd love to see back on the forums... I think I'd have to go with Sira, though. Not that she's been gone for super long, or anything... just on the more inactive side. She joined a few months after I did, and, even four years (YEESH FOUR YEARS how did that happen) later I still thought of her as "that also new member who is slightly less new than me haha someone is newer than me lol n00b." In an affectionate and caring way, I swear. Her posts were kind and funny and she just had a "good person" aura. She also participated in RPs with me and was always a good RPer. Her Pokemon Blank little game thing was hilarious, and well drawn. I dunno. Sira's pretty chill. If you pop back on and read this, Sira, know that my words are giving you a virtual hug. And it's comfy. I'm a pretty good hugger, or so I've been informed.
Uhm, that's all I've got, really. Virtual fist bump to Sira, wherever she is right now.

May the Triforce be with you.

Opal...
Poignant one-liner go! ...No, but this isn't so much a contest entry as a simple statement of fact.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Opal as well.
She was fun to talk with and fun to post in various topics. That and I miss talking with her in general back when I had contact info for her. But her leaving caused several things to die in the forums, like ROM. We need to try and at least finish ROM somehow.

Re: KotF 2013 Bonus Challenge #1
I don't think Opal leaving was the reason ROM sort of died off (though she is certainly missed). It was a combination of multiple people leaving and or getting busy, along with an attempt to make the plot too complex and structured (as opposed to the more free form style of the earlier ones). Speaking of ROM, I still would like to finish my wrap-up of of ROM4 when I have the time...
Anyway, winners will be announced later this week.
