Anyone Know where nx1701g has been?

It's been since the end of Jan since his last post. I've sent him a couple of PM's with no response. Apologies if this has been brought up before, tried using search to see if there had been a post but it didn't work. Anyone have any info?
 
If I were to hazard a guess, I would suggest that the person in question has been engaging in activities which have precluded him from being able to post on this forum.
 
Yes we must remember, even though it's difficult at times, that people have lives.

I remember years ago, i disappeared from the board for a few days because i was starting a new job, and when i got back on line about a week later, there was already a Where's Shameless? thread in the Lounge. Good times.
 
Oh I'm well aware that people have lives (I wish I had one myself :( ) I believe NX was heavily involved with his work. I just hope nothing bad has happened to him is all. He's missed in the Smallville threads.
 
Have you tried a Google search for both his current username and his old one, Admiral WTeagarden? I see a couple of pages (relating to a Trek RPG) which include Contact links.

It is said that no news is good news.

I also think that people should not have to explain their absenses. If nx1701g has not replied to your PMs, it probably means that he doesn't want to. People have a right to be forgotten.
 
Oh I'm simply curious that's all. I'm not expecting an explanation of anything and of course they've a right to be forgotten. These were not the responses I was expecting at at all lol. I probably should have not bothered to post this now...
 
Alternatively, he might not have his account here set up to e-mail him PMs, so he might not know they've been sent and might welcome being remembered.

I don't see the harm in asking.

I agree, but I think the suggestion of googling his username to track his activity online goes beyond being simply curious.

To draw an analogy: In real life, people can be reported as missing, but the majority of the time, the police will discover that they're not "missing persons" at all, because they've moved away of their own free will.

People don't have a right to know where or why, which can put the police in an uncomfortable position, when people back home are anxious for answers.

In an online forum, there's a large degree of expecation that people will come and go without explaining why or announcing that they are, so I don't think an absentee would default to a being a "missing person".

Yeah, I don't know if I have PMs until I log into the site. I've had PMs that have been waiting for me for days.
 
^ Jadzia I am merely expressing cursory concern nothing else. Why is this thread getting so much flak when other threads I've seen asking about other posters flow nice. Wow. Mods please lock this thread and forget about it. Jeez.

I understand it is only cursory concern, and I'm sorry if my words come across as flak, because I'm not intending them that way. :)

If anything I was hoping to ease your concern with "no news is good news", and then giving my opinion on M'Sharak's and RJ's posts, which imply going in search of nx1701g.
 
I don't think there's a need to close the thread, as someone may still have information for you.

Again I'm sorry if my posts have bothered you. I hope there's no bad feelings between us. :)
