Quote: What you mentioned is a very legit concern.

 

 I was very concerned when Sammy wasn't on the MB for a few months and like you and so many others was greatly relieved when he posted again. 

 

My recommendation is that the Mods should set up a private discussion regarding a poster that hasn't been on the MB for a while...... if someone mentions their concern about the poster.  It's realistically possible that one or more of the Mods would know if the poster is ok or would have contact info about the poster away from the MB.   Or they could send PM's to other posters that might know how to contact that person.   The more input,  the greater the chance of finding out if someone is ok.

I think that would be a great idea. A mod or admin can have access to another user's personal info, and check on them by either email, cell, or the household number. Like Jags32250 said. This might just be an online MB, but honestly, I've talked with and been around so many people on here for such a long time that it can almost be counted like a real personal relationship.

 

 

 

It's disrespectful when people like Dav and Fargin are the only ones remembered, and other people on here who have died are totally forgotten. It's like remembering Stonewall Jackson for his death in the Civil War, and totally forgetting about the other 600,000+ Americans who died on both sides. It's just not right.
