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 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
 
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
