<p>[QUOTE="NOS, post: 3149198, member: 2098"]Sending a letter is a good idea but it is unfortunately not a guaranteed way of getting a response or finding out what happened. Let's take <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/members/bonniview.38496/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/members/bonniview.38496/">Bonniview </a>for example. We've had a solid trading relationship for years. I could count on this member to come onto the forum and respond to our conversation messages within a day or two like clockwork. However, he's not been on since the middle of May. It is not like this member to just disappear like this. Thinking something was up, I put his name in on google to see if anything turned up with the local obituaries in his area of Washington state.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing was found so I sent a kind letter explaining our background, asked if he was alright and if something had happened to let me know. I left several different ways that I could be reached in the letter but it's been several weeks now and nothing. So, perhaps he's been dealing with a life crisis (medical or otherwise, for example) with either himself or someone in the family. Or perhaps he just doesn't want to participate on the forum or do trades anymore. Sometimes members disappear without knowing why and unfortunately, the reasons are not always known.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
