Just wondering @dan
Does everyone that has been paged in this thread get such personal attention?

Lol funny you say that. I was at a DO with him when he decided to bring back CM. Curious to see what he does thus time.
Anyone know @TimT IRL?
Is he OK?
Was thinking the same. I hope he's alright. Maybe he just needed a break.

Hoping so as well, but he hasn't responded to the email I sent to 2 addresses that I have for him.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

He's just busy. I see him at least once a week.

There's a fine line between caring and creepy. Let's not cross that line.

Curious what here came across as creepy...seems like care and genuine concern.

I wasn't saying that at all. My point was that we should keep in mind that he may not want to be contacted.

+1 in general someone who is absent may not mind 1 or 2 friendly messages or the like, but having a whole search party may feel like being harassed. I'd guess there's a line somewhere in the middle, probably closer to the lower end of the spectrum.

Exactly. If he just needs a break, let's let him have it. If he's c"v not doing well, leave him be. If he want to, he know we were reaching out.

Yes, but we also really need a search guy.. :)

When someone’s name becomes a verb they have an obligation to their surroundings to upkeep it :)

TimT ain’t no name anymore. It’s a verb
