Hi I have just joined and am trying to find an old friend who used to be on the BBC forum. His name is Verdun. Can anyone help me please.

Hi and welcome.

The name rings a bell as I was once on the BBC board under a different name. But I've not noticed it on here.

Welcome Edinburgh. He is a member of another forum that I'm a member of, but hasn't posted for approximately three months.

The trouble is that we can die off, "without giving formal notice of our intended, or unintended, departure."

That's cheerful Sean. I believe Verdun had family issues and needed to take time out.

So now we know.

But some people just drift away,

I'm just being practical, if they don't have any personal contact with another contributor, if someone stops posting, it can be a situation where they are sadly, missed, but no one knows the reason why. There's a host of reasons, starting with "I can't be bothered" to something quite serious or perish the thought final.

So true. Not to mention the current situation.
