Members who vanish

Post by parthianbow » Tue April 19th, 2011, 8:42 am

Hmmm. I was browsing an old thread this morning, and came across two names that struck me - because they'd been prolific posters, and I haven't seen them for some time. One was VolgaDon, who hasn't posted since September 2009, and the other was Anna Elliott, who hasn't posted for about 7 months. :(

Hopefully, they'll be back soon...ditto Jules Watson...

Perhaps, like me they fell out of the habit or had things that needed doing?

I didn't post for quite a while but nipped in from time to time, just to keep up with events.

I hope they return at some point, Anna was very supportive as was Jules.

I remember Anna, Jules, Volgadon, and Chatterbox. I think they're all very busy.

Boswellbaxter and Misfit (and other Administrators). Are you able to contact our missing persons and ask what's up? Have we upset anyone? Is it all my fault? Why have we been deserted? Don't you love us any more? :confused:

I blame it all on Ken :D

I still see CB on FB (when I actually do go to FB), plus diamondlil at Goodreads all the time. I did hear Jules was fairly busy.
