I remember a very active user here named Sharona. She had similar point of view with RosieG.
I've noticed her absence. I miss her.. She was interesting and a real character.
I hypothesise she got into trouble with the mods a fair bit and perhaps that happened once too often and she had enough and decided to leave?
I’ve known her for ten years since the AnswerBag days. She was constantly getting put in the Penalty Box there, which was its equivalent to getting banned here in AnswerMug. She continued that tradition of getting banned a lot when she came here. In both websites whenever she gets temporarily kicked out, she always re-emerges onto the scene just as feisty and charged up as she was on the day she left. Not everyone has been or is a Sharonna fan, there are members whom she rubbed the wrong way or vice-versa.
She and I have a love-hate cat-dog brother-sister interaction. We get along with each other fairly well and can joke around together like the best of them, we are polar opposites on political issues, and she has the distinction of being the only person who has ever successfully taken me to task on the way I post content here. She was so opposed to sandwich-talk and tilde-talk that she went on a tirade against me on the tildes for several days, we fought it out back and forth with neither of us budging an inch. Finally, she stated that she couldn’t take it any more, she didn’t like getting all worked up over something so meaningless, and she admitted that our friendship was more important than that particular fight. I was so impressed that without even being prompted, I posted a truce. I offered to place a self-imposed moratorium on any tilde-related postings for 30-days. I kept my end of the bargain, and when the time period passed, all was well in AnswerMug Land.
There are probably a dozen more Sharonna-Randy stories I could tell. (For instance, she is the one who started the taunt of “Reported!” on people‘s posts, I picked it up from her.)
I miss her a lot, I hope she is okay and that she returns here. No one fights with me like she does.

Which we are opposites, you and I or you and she?

Taking to task: I’m referring to the volume, intensity, extent and silliness of tilde and sandwich posts.

None of us know what has happened to her.
