What ever happened to?

[Aquanero]

Have you ever wondered what happened to some members that used to post often, were very knowledgable and great contributors that all of a sudden stopped posting? Here today gone tomorrow with no closure. sometimes it's a while before you realize they are gone and you're left wondering if everything is OK but have no way of knowing.

I was thinking about a few I used to converse with quite a bit. VRWC , B balton777 , G Gruff Master , C cchhcc all gone now. All great contributors.

I know how you feel I used to enjoy talking to them and reading their threads/posts and I know there's a great deal many more we've lost that I miss. Did they lose passion for the hobby? Or did they just leave MFK? Or was there something else? It makes me realize I should really use the friend request option more often so I can better keep track of those I enjoy talking to and that I should myself post more often to help contribute to the site and stay in touch.

This general 'line of thought' has occurred to me a few times.
any member could suddenly pass away or have a life-altering issue & we'd never know what happened to them, unless someone close to them knows about their mfk activity, and has access to their computer, etc.
I remember GruffMaster, but the other names are too generic to stand out to me.
Accessing a deceased person's online accounts, (of various types) can be real obstacles... if they didn't have a list of account passwords and keep them updated for 'someone' to handle.
this unfortunately, became a reality for me. taking "easy online transactions" for granted. sucks big wads when several things suddenly disappear into cyberspace. then it becomes a big chore.
Remember when we kept EVERYthing on paper, IN a file? those days are gone.

I most definitely have been there. I still think a mass email should go out to let people no the Mobile site is no longer functional but mfk is back. Balton777 was the man

I guess he hasn't been seen since April. Maybe his dogs got him?

ECZS needs to be reinstated. He brings some great fish at great prices in. I've seen a lot of members with monster tanks and a crazy stock just pack it in because of how time consuming it can be. What ever happened to dieselmack? Or johnptc
