Absent Friends & Missing Persons

[Richard Barrett]

Surely it's healthy to take a break now and again. I've done it myself, for around a year last time I think!

[gradus]

Best wishes and I look forward to resuming contact when you want to return.

Seems ages since we heard from the always interesting Colonel Danby.

Have a vague memory of him changing his name to something else, Alison. Trouble is I can't remember what it was or even if I've got the right person!

Thanks Pet, he did have quite a distinctive style of writing. I see he hasn’t posted for four years or so.

Let’s see if any clarification emerges.

Has Member Richard Barrett left us again, on one of his breaks? He’s signed in as ‘Guest’, I see.

[Zucchini]

So's LMcD ... what's going/gone on?

[Mario]

And also,

Has LMcD's "polemicist" thread vanished?

BTW, maybe he's currently involved with his wife's recovery?

Mario

[Mario]

Now I'm really worried.

I've just tried to send a PM to LMcD - no joy.

What's happened?

I worry both for his health and Mrs McD.

This may be connected with some members being relegated from Full Member status yesterday after differences over the removed 'Polemicists' thread. So, it may be that LMcD has either left or been expelled.

Richard Barrett subsequently raised the issue of moderation in a thread which was also later removed: shortly afterwards he starts reverted to that of 'Guest'.

However, I may be wrong. Perhaps someone better informed could let us know whether we should be worried about LMcD?

[Bryn]

A clear statement from the relevant Host(s) seems to be in order. As, perhaps, does a review of their role.

[Mario]

I can confirm that all is well with LMcD and his wife. Other posters have been very kind to let me know.

Cannot comment on the demise of the "polemicist" thread I'm afraid.

Thank you. Good to know.

Merged with the "Order..." thread.
