What if...
Hi guys,
Most of us have become quite a close knit group of friends now. We keep bustin' balls all the time, share our love for watches, our families, our problems.....and just about everything else. Ever wondered how we'd react if one of us suddenly stopped posting on TRF? Ever wondered why that person stopped posting? If something serious were amiss, would some family member of that person's inform TRF? Makes you really wonder, uh? What if.....

You've done this topic before JJ. That's how you get to 40k posts so fast You can add this one to Pat's list of how JayJay got to 40k posts so fast

That happened recently when Padi dropped off the radar for a while. Remember how many posts there were with concern for him?

Hey, has anyone seen JJ around lately? I have not noticed any posts or comments from him since Christmas? Think I will start a thread to see if we can figure out what happened.

When you think about it, such past responses have in fact, been global. Hows that for perspective? As recently as 15 or 20 years ago, the internet was a just a curiosity, or still just a collection of purpose-built intranets.
I'm rather proud of the comradarie around here!

Well, we could share our emails. If no reply comes, something's wrong.

Good points JJ. We should issue emergency procedure cards for non TRF family members to follow.

Admit it, Joe - you didn't hit the "ignore" button by accident, did you?

Ehh, it's been busy at work. Besides, the other mods were complaining that they weren't getting a chance to ban anyone.
