Many of come and gone but rather then have a Hall of Fame or Shame, let's just reminisce.
I could rattle off a bunch of names but will keep it to a "controlled burn" so as to give others a chance.
Dumpster-dee and Injunjoe are two that come to mind.

Who could forget Gustavus?
A very clever dude, and not reluctant to share his knowlege. And somebody else from Western Canada!
I've seen his name recently, but only in posting "thanks". If its the real Gustavus, I hope you come back and start posting again!!
Jon.
Gus has probably forgot more about scrapping then I will ever know. I think he is not allowed to post any more so he sounds off best he can with a "Thanks".
Might want to add Dopenscrapple to your list Kz...
Dopenscrapple was quite the character and had some colorful posts to say the least.
I elect Mick and Gus!
Two Stellar Dudes who shared their knowledge with us ALL!
jghilino was someone I paid attention to. Plenty of ideas for higher grade e-waste that might do best on Ebay.
Ole Mick was a Founding Father and common sense approach to scrapping is something everyone should take note of...RIP. I wonder if there are others that have passed but we just never found out.
jghilino was always good at maximizing profit by thinking outside the box.
How about Black Steel and his Tacoma that could haul anything.
Kris Kringle . Most of his posts have been deleted but you can find a few that people quoted and replied to.
Oh good ole don't tase me bro dopen scrappin , I kinda want to do a duck lipped selfie with me holding a trash can video game as a tribute . i kind of miss the comic relief . Often curious as to what these people do to get chopped .
Not sure if happy scrapper is still a regular , but I learned a thing or two about a thing or two from his posts

+1 on CoryCouch!
But I get to shoot the bull with him from time to time via cell... I do miss his presence here though!
He da MAN!
I talk or text with Cory every once and a while as well...he is still eating very well!!!
I forgot about Libertytow...that dude was a man on a mission and I'm betting he still is.
Bear was a man that got me thinking about old electronics again! Mick RIP was a solid contributor as any!
Some of these more "colorful" members made me laugh so hard it made my sides hurt. Too bad they came & went so fast! There are days I could use there stories as a little laughter is good for everyone.
I have to say I agree with the list so far. I have to add "Skippy" to my list of members who were entertaining. Mike
Why did kris kringles posts all get deleted? I'm curious because it mAde me sooo confused on some of the old posts. It seemed like people were talking to no one lol
Bear was here when I became a member in Sept 2013. Has anyone heard from him?
Can't forget George B., the man with a plan! I do miss the rest mentioned as well, especially Mick.
Dewgood I think it was?
I see Hoss from time to time. I'll have to get him to post sometime.
Mr Dewgood.Quote:

matador: "Dopenscrapple taught us a lot! I'm not sure when I'd ever need/want that knowledge, but we have it!"
Idaho,
You see Hoss around? I thought he got in a pickle where he gave some guy a good lickin' (who deserved every bit of it!) with the guys lawyer standing right there. I think he gave a few to the lawyer for good measure, too. It didn't sound like he'd be avoiding the slammer after that. All I know I read offa here (SMF) so thats the last I heard about him. He must have a good fairy protecting him then!! Hopefully he will be back.
Jon.
He taught me that if you flee and resist arrest the Kansas City Police will taze you.Quote:

Few I'm not sure about
Auminer and his busted foot
Burly busy slaying dragons I suppose ;)
mr dew good is a fave of mine but he couldn't get along with management and was put on the permanent time out list. Kris Kringle is code for his name.
Not sure what happened to Bear.
Seems like TheHoss checks in every six months or so.
Can say as I remember Thirsty but it looks like he checked in 8-31-14.
Brojer has been pretty quiet lately...must be napping.
How bout Julie ? And sir scrapalot ?
BroJer has a bit on his plate right now.. not my place to say any more than that. But he is still going at it!
Just to ease any of your guys minds.
I thought SirScrapalot was just moving and would be back in a few weeks.
-----------------------
Thanks to Dopenscrapple, I also know now that there are vitamins in dumpsters. Taking that risk could either kill you, or save you $3.99!
Easyrecycle - He does pop in and out, but hasn't been in since November. Hope he's got all his medical issues squared away.
One that only the old timers may remember.....Computer Scrapper........He stiffed some people but I did finally get paid for my final load of ewaste.......Been several years and been dealing with Ewasted ever since..........At least I found a reputable buyer after trying one that may have not been to reputable.....Not sure if he was banned but I think at least his buyers thread was pulled
Last thread I found from computerscrapper
http://www.scrapmetalforum.com/off-t...ill-folks.html
If anyone ever has biz with this individual I urge caution.....Took several months and me threatening mail fraud to get payment........Finally did but was a big hassle.....
Anybody hear anything from Corycouch?
I talk/text to him every once in a while...last I heard he was on the road a lot a still eating well.Quote:
