I wrote him a pm that has gone unread. The forum shows his last login time shortly after that post.Boulder&Briar":fz3jtk5z said:Has anybody heard anything on John and if he's alright? I have his address and was thinking I might write or send him a Christmas card in hopes that he will let me know he's ok. Not sure if that would be crossing the line though? Any thoughts?
Well said!:cheers:Brewdude":iqvar4xs said:While my concern as well as curiosity has been raised, it looks as though this was not an issue with another poster here on BoB. At least as far as I can see.
So that leaves it up to his personal issues, which should probably just as well be left alone IMHO.
While some of us may have more or less of a personal connection with John, he chose to delete his membership on BoB. For his own unspoken reasons.
I personally find that a tragedy, since he always fit in so well here and was respected. And rightfully so.
Equally, there are real life issues that mitigate one's attention and perhaps John's issues were one of them. In any case it's his personal decision, and while we may bemoan his choice at the same time perhaps we should respect it....
And hold our distance too. He may be facing a time where he needs to focus on his primary concerns. Whatever they are.
Don't want to make this melodramatic. Perhaps I just did. Yet that was not the intention.
Someone wants to go. OK. Thanks for the laughs, time, and fellowship.
John was one of the best!

Good to know, and of course you're right on the second pointBriarbabe":8u87oedn said:John and I are good friends on FB. He is fine and I don't feel at liberty to discuss why he left.
I think that's the point. I get a kick out of these drama queens. If you wanna go, just go. It's NBD turnover is a fact of life on the pipe boards. :shock:Carlos":x8gw78gv said:we are kind of in the dark.
