Where did they go?

It's been 3 years 30,000 miles 1,000 posts (500 more before the hack). What a great resource this Forum has been for me.

Some member I miss that haven't posted for awhile include

Bob-VT, Loren, KCALB SIRAY, Bailout, Yaris Hilton, TheSilkySmooth, Pk198105, and many others.

Where did they go?

Well, Pk198105 has posted right up until 3 days ago. I'm sure he's still around.
I believe he recently bought a Civic

KCALB SIRAY's last post was March 15th. No announcement by him on leaving.

Bailout last posted November 13th. Long gone and no announcement.

Yaris Hilton last posted Sept 8th. Again, no announcement of departure.

TheSilkySmooth last posted June 13th. No announcement either.

Can't bring up Bob-Vt for some reason.

Who knows?

PK is still around.

Loren hangs at Micro Image these days, or at least he used to.

KCALB is around, in fact I think he still has the forum panda.

Some still lurk (even if they were not mentioned by name )

I chatted with Bailout a little while ago, he changed jobs recently so that's probably one reason why he's not so active here...

I learned so much on 'hypermiling' from the FE Stickies posted by Bailout and all the group posting questions. Everyone has been so helpful...

Cheers!

Sorry for the lack of posts myself. Been jumping from Kentucky to California on a regular basis. Yaris is still around but in pieces now. Slowy (turtle slow) working on a SCCA/NASA approved cage for the car that will let me retain the interior. Other than that I have been debating on the route I want to go with the engine. I have fabricated better brackets for the Power Enterprise supercharger and got it working before my recent teardown.

It will probably be a while before any photos and updates. Work and my son are my main priorities right now.

Just wondering, do you think they should? I've seen people over the years go through "the cycle" on forums. Most never actually quit, instead they still read and lurk and maybe post once in a while.

Forums serve so many purposes for people.

That's what I've been doing lately, unfortunately. At least I'm still coming around, I guess.
