Yes- especially how he ended his posts Just did a check. It has been nearly five years. I remember thinking how he seemed to disappear abruptly.
I think I recall him making a good-bye post in the Miscellaneous fourm (but it apparently wasn't saved) stating he had fun for years but was moving on to real life.
Whatever the reason(s) for his departure I hope he's having a good life and is doing well. Here's to you, lad.
