I too have missed John lately.  Hope he comes back soon!

@dooBdoo  Perhaps it had to do with the poster who denigated him in a very personal way.

 

Yeesh I really didn't want to get into issues because if the thread is poofed we will never know if he or Cindy are ok because we will not be able to restart.

 

Hopefully if the mods step in they will just shut it but not poof it.

@Cakers3. I would say that's very much a matter of opinion and you're entitled to yours.

Everyone on here for a length of time will get their feathers ruffled at some point.  Probably because they ruffled someone else's feathers. . . 

 

Whatever.  They come back or they don't.

I have been on for a very long time and have enjoyed his posts. I was not aware that there were issues with posting until I had my little episode.  Notice I "ain't talking about it" because  while it is over there is always a next time.  That next time perhaps is what keeps people off.  It is called WHY BOTHER if you never know what is okay to say.

I have also  noticed he has not been around lately myself.  Did not know there was a dust up and so that's probably it.

 

I was going to post about him myself yesterday @Cakers3

 

At least we know he's ok.

@Sooner. Believe me, you don't have to ruffle feathers.  You just have to have a lot of posts and someone with an attitude.

@Cakers3  was it a new Poster or long time Poster?

@Cakers3, It wasn't about another poster, nor was it personal, but I, too, don't want to jeopardize your

thread so that's probably as specific as I should be.

I hope that helps at least a wee bit.

Perhaps you can ask the Mods via the "report"

feature or via email to lock your thread if you'd like.❤️

(Side note apologies, I'm using a software beta test version right now and can't use some features here

such as hearting, spellcheck, quoting.)

I saw his post right before it was deleted but saw no comment by another poster on it.
