Stillwater Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I also miss his activity. He did not even react on my recent series of Tasmania posts, in contrast to what he usually does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodger Pettichord Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Another one gone missing? We've got to put together a system to get information when we are concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh there are so many good old virtual friends that turned away from here, unfortunately. For different reasons, may be health issues, may be shifting of interest or simply lack of time. Some have got challenging jobs, some even children. If I may start a list, I´d spontanously remember @Kasi31, @Mallard, @twsimfan, @VH-KDK, @kiwi stu, @Wolter van der Spoel, @Sniper31 or @Ryan Mason. And I am sure there are more former contributors with tons of humour and good spirit... would be really glad if one or the other turns back.

To which I would add Dario, European Mountain Man (Stewart) and Adam Banks Dario hasn't responded to PM's in quite a while. He has a very challenging profession and that may be taking all his time Stewart has been ages ... Adam occasionally posts, but not for a while Miss them all Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambar Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Folks it's not just at this forum, this is going on at other screenshot forums as well. Guys with 15, 20 or more years have just vanished never to be seen again. I would say i've noticed this gradually happening over the last 5yrs or more. Don't have a clue. How about Paulb, another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John York Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Don't want to sound morbid but we're all getting older and Its possible that many of those who go missing have gone on the the other place (if there is one). This is very much a solitary hobby and their nearest and dearest wouldn't necessarily know who to notify. My Sheila has started the occasional communication with Rodger and Trudy but I suspect that's unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hello, in fact, Terry has a wide range of contacts in the flightsim world and no doubt in many other fields as well. I would sincerely hope that one would have let us know. They did so a few years ago when he was rushed to hospital. His last post was as recent as the 22nd January, so I am hopeful that he is still with us and that he will be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya John, but it is the short period of time that all these people have vanished from Orbx and other sites as well that gets me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
