Title: Have you ever gotten attached to another FC member?
Post by: debidoo on August 14, 2019, 11:02:53 am
There was a really nice member who used to be on here and posted every day or close to it.  Then she got sick but her daughter posted and said she was ill and asked for prayers.  She came back for awhile but then suddenly stopped being on here again and I can only assume she sucumbed to her illness. It was sad to me and although I never met her personally I thought she was a nice and positive  :( person and always looked forward to her posts.

I don't think I've ever gotten attached to anyone on here.  Although I can say there are faces and stories of regulars I've come to recognize. (debidoo you are one of them).  And naturally I have concern for those who express hardships.  I rejoice when those are celebrating.  I'm not attached though.

You do not know that she died. I do not think I remember who you may be talking about.

I know one person I have talked to other than this site and she use to be on here a lot.  She has not been on in a while nor responded to emails.  She had a lot going on and was trying to move.  People get busy with other things.

There are actually a few people I have noticed are not on here any more. ;D

Never really got attached but did look forward to some of their post and have noticed that they have not been on for a while.

I think maybe attached was the wrong word to use - I guess I mean miss seeing their posts when they aren't on anymore or sense concern that they are not doing well.   :rose:

I know who you are talking about.  She was battling brain cancer,and her posts suddenly stopped.

I remember that poster you're talking about.  I wouldn't say attached but there are very few I actually remember that used to post.  I remember this really hateful one that thankfully got banned.  Just so negative and argumentative all the time.  There was another one I remember who was a young wife and mother I remember her mainly because she had her pic in her avatar.  She hasn't posted in a few years.  Another one I remember was a poster who couldn't write a decent sentence to save their lives.  They were pretty much illiterate it seemed and their posts were so confusing.

Why would you quit at 22 cents?  I was above the cash out threshold on the 11th.  No way I would just quit at 22 cents a day.

There are several people on here that I consider friends and talk to on other online sites (like Skype, Facebook, IBO Toolbox, ApSense, etc.) and I would definitely feel a loss if they dropped out of sight and I couldn't contact them anymore.

Much like a true friend I had when I was in the Army and was very close to for years after that, but about 40 years ago he stopped coming around when I quit drinking. He thought that was the main reason we were friends (or drinking buddies) and I think I made him feel guilty (without meaning to).

I tried to contact him online after he moved around a few times, but all I ever found were websites that wanted me so pay a subscription fee to be able to find people, until earlier this week I had one tell me his latest hometown as a tickler to entice me to subscribe and I Googled his name along with that town and found his obituary from just last year.

I  have felt extremely sad for several days now and keep remembering all the past fun we had, but regretting that I didn't try harder to find him before he died. I am pulling out of it slowly, but I was overwhelmed with how much mourning I did, even after not seeing him or even talking to him for about 40 years.

Thank for the chance to vent a little.

As I was reading through this thread, I kind of got the sense that this was what you really meant and I think it is good that you clarified it that way. While I am not 'close' to any other regulars or communicating outside of FC, I do agree with a few others who have said that they look forward to reading posts from certain users and feel a sense of familiarity with them.


I've noticed several regulars who suddenly stopped posting.  I've wondered what the circumstances were, but stopped short of assuming anything.

If i can help...1 was banned.....1 other on borderline.

Who was banned, hitch?

Who?

Man, my just staying away for a few weeks really messed you up, eh?

I haven't given you a second thought in weeks. Me? I'm living rent free in your head! lol

But to answer the question, yeah. I've been here long enough to see many good folks I liked come & go.

I think I know the lady of whom you're all referring. She seemed nice & I'm guessing she succumbed to her illness.

There was a couple of Christian ladies I enjoyed conversing with. One helped me take on falcon9 back in the day. lol She was a platinum member too. Wish she was still around. I could use her help right about now....

I'm not sure what my 'banner' has to do with this. Anybody else care to comment on if my banner changed during my vacation? Otherwise, I'll just consider hitch the liar we all know him to be. lol

Edit: Just to clear this up, This idiot thinks that because I still used the site to earn without coming on to post for an extra week, I was banned. He said so in another topic. This from a guy that DOESN'T use the site to earn, but to habitually harass people on the forum.  ::)

It seems like I may remember a lady who had brain cancer.  I would probably remember if I saw the name or something.

You said a long time ago you come and do your 30 posts then don't come back til the next month.  I have not seen anything change on your banner.  My banner is gone. haha  I tried to change the color and somehow it went away.

Yeah. Honesty the forum is no fun anymore since hitch has gotten worse. I don't even want to be here anymore, but I'm not gonna let him stop me from making my $3. lol. In all honesty, he makes it easier to get my 30 posts quickly. Monetize the hater. lol

We were both fighting cancer at the same time and were each other's help if one of us were down or having a hard time, since unless you are dealing with it, you really don't understand what the person is going through.  I had her email and we corresponded that way also.  Suddenly she stopped posting here, and I emailed her several times, and never got an answer, which was not normal for her.  So I'm thinking the worst happened, and it breaks my heart.

I wasn't talking about hitch0403 or ericborn1980, etc. who it appears were banned for having multiple accounts.  I was specifically thinking of brian8713 - who frequently posted about his anxiety and relationship issues; and also one other person, Dvessella1983, who was a frequent poster several years ago but then suddenly stopped. She often posted what she believed were helpful FC hints and tips - her posts were generally prone to typos and spelling errors, but still she was attempting to be helpful most of the time and was regularly hitting her 30 monthly posts.


According to their forum profiles, Brian was last active in March of 2019 after being quite active for a good stretch. Dvessella was a staple from April 2016 through July of 2017.


I wasn't "attached" to either of these members, but the sudden end to their posts when they had been regulars just makes me curious if something may have happened, or if there was a ban of some sort or what.

You know if you know her real name, first and last, and the state she lived in you can google that and even add
"obituary" and if she did die you can probably find her obituary online.

It is amazing what all you can find out with just a little bit of info.

I refuse to let a bully run me off from any where.  I think it is funny that someone would put so much time and effort into bullying somebody they do not even know.  What is even more funny is when the same person claims to be the right hand man of God. smh

You do know this ericlad person is hitch right?

I had wondered about the brian poster.  He also said he was starting a new job where he would not be able to be online as much.  His previous job he was able to play online all day while he was at work.   I have sites that I use to work with that after a time of not being on I just don't really go to them any longer.

I doubt either of them were banned for any reason.  I would say they just don't use the site any longer.

There was a really nice member who used to be on here and posted every day or close to it.  Then she got sick but her daughter posted and said she was ill and asked for prayers.  She came back for awhile but then suddenly stopped being on here again and I can only assume she sucumbed to her illness. It was sad to me and although I never met her personally I thought she was a nice and positive  :( person and always looked forward to her posts.

Hello!

Ya I think I know who you are reffering to an other member was asking about her well being too. I guess since she has never return to posting it is safe to say that she would if she could so one uspects the worse. I trully hope she and her family are at peace.

You can also visit their profile and see when they were last active on the site.  Not sure if you can hide that info since we seem to have a stalker in the forums.  It shows when they were last active on the site period not just in the forums.

Wow,a stalker on FC?Do you have proof and any idea who it is?

To make that claim and have FC allow it and be wrong you not only might jeopardize your membership but run the risk of FC forum or the site itself being shutdown and im sure a lot of members might really get *issed off.
