So I realized something, sometimes people aren't on DRLFF and people wonder what happened, and sometimes they won't get access to a computer say they're on vacation or something, so I was thinking maybe a system like this. Say your about to go to Alaska to wrestle Kodiak bears, and it may be a few weeks before you get back so you would post...

Check out, going to Alaska to wrestle Kodiak bears be back in a few weeks

(after a few weeks)

you would edit the post saying

Check in, trip went great, I killed two bears with my bare hands and only got mauled two and a half times!

Actually, this might just be a good idea.

And since I'll probably forget it if I don't post now:

Leaving for a three day math camp on the 27th. Not that you guys would notice, but w/e.

I never do anything exciting, and besides, I have my smartphone which I can use to access the forums from nearly anywhere, really.
So I don't think I'll be posting in this thread much.

Went out to home town for Christmas.

It was good.

Actually, what Maarten said. This thread might just be pretty darn useful.

Since I lose my net all the time, this might be a major thread for me.

I wasn't expecting such good responses I'm glad this will help!

Check out

Reason - My knee is ♥♥♥♥ up and causing me a lot of pain I probably won't be coding until it gets fixed and I'll be to doped up on pain killers to do so :/ god dammit I will still be on the forums but if my posts are a little... weird please don't blame me to much.

I'm giving this thread maybe a week tops on the first page. Sounds like a useful idea, but I doubt that many people will actually check to see where someone went for three days.
