I don't mean to sound rude, but maybe we should let it be. If Matrixman wanted to be contacted then he would have contacted someone. Perhaps we should just accept that he is taking a break from KW instead of stalking him online. Of course, he could be very ill or something bad has happened in his life, but again it might be his choice to be out of contact.

I can't speak for everybody else, obviously, but I'm certainly taking that into account. OTOH, he was a fairly regular poster here for years, and a daily poster at the Hangar, and we haven't heard from him at either place for months. He just quit coming without a word to anybody. Just seems kind of out of character for him.

oddly, i sort of agree with both of you.
i want to know that he's okay but i do not want to intrude.
he's prolly gonna go all sybil on my ass when he finds out
i googled him anyway! :lol:

i have not googled further and, tho i want to know he's okay,
i'm not going to search further. he's such a private person
that i just feel i need to respect that.

mm, when and if you come back, we love and miss you greatly.

Yeah, there's no intention of trying to make him come back or anything. If he wants to stay away, that's totally up to him.

We just want to know that he's ok.

You didn't, Lore. Yours is a legitimate concern. And probably my inner news reporter was getting carried away there.... :oops: ("Call HR! Pretend to be his aunt!" :roll: )

Huggles Edge! |G
For Myles--
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love


For Mom--
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Fly...fly high against the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you
The wind beneath my wings

Brooke!
Did your mom ever talk with neo on her phone?
I know they were close, or seemed that way in the group chats I had with them.
Is it possible she has a number to text or talk with him on her phone?
Or neo may have asked to be added to the text group when she was hospitalized? Your dad might know...

Hi Edge!
Good to see you. :hearts:

Edge! Hahaha, I was just thinking about you today. Nice to see you around.

And yeah Lore, no worries, you're absolutely right, if he's off because he wants to be, it's his right. I just want to know that he is off because he wants to be. We'd be trying to chase you down too if you disappeared without a word. ;)

I am back on a somewhat limited basis (limited meaning I am staying out of the Tank and the Close and any other potentially time-consuming debating threads) to concentrate on what little I can here, meaning engaging in some writing, and talking about AATE once it comes out...

I am honored that you noticed :)

You never know what keeps people away from the Watch... They could be going through a lot of things in their life. Such as finishing their terminal degree... Or getting engaged... Or both... You never know.-jay

I miss him too and I am worried about him but honestly I'm in the respect his privacy court. He's always been private to some degree, even on the watch. It's a totally different story than if I went missing cuz Lucimay could just barge into my apartment with the spare keys I gave her or call about twenty different people to track me down if I was not found in my apartment, but MM hasn't given that license to anyone and I think he might be more stressed if we go stalking him than if we just leave him alone. I'll start hanging out on the net with my im launched which I have not done in forever to see if he pops on.

Ok... edit.... he hasn't signed on to messenger since March.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....
