Thanks for chiming in, guys.

I came to the party late, I think 4 years ago or so. I have seen activity drop even from then. It's too bad,it really is.

folks either find a more active forum (truly an issue here) or get distracted by the next shiny thing.  I may disappear again if I can find a way to get my 760RWHP Charger street legal..lol   Or fix my broken T

Lol. No more leaving. We'll hunt you down man.

There have a been a lot of names who have gone over the years. Some of those who come to my mind are Dupes, Wbill, SML and of course HvM. I know Bill and Dupes were active on another forum a while back, but i think people come and go for many different reasons.

Steve, were you aware that Hunter passed away earlier this year?

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Yes, I often think of ones I conversed with frequently, Hunter, CodyJ, Matt-Joachim, ModelMan68, RudyOnWheels. Hunter and CodyJ just got busy with other of life's circumstances and ModelMan68, Hunter's father, passed.

There are a few I see on very very rare occasions.

Personally, I have a tendency to rotate hobbies.  I have so many and I get fixated on what my current interest is.  There’re guys on the ModernMopar and Mustang forums that are asking this same question lol.  I do get concerned about some folks as they have expressed health issues etc.  But I think most folks either find a more active forum (truly an issue here) or get distracted by the next shiny thing.  I may disappear again if I can find a way to get my 760RWHP Charger street legal..lol   Or fix my broken TREX450 RC helicopter, or go out on a particularly successful albacore fishing trip.. could go on and on.

Thanks,

John

I have been doing searches on this forum and I have come across people that have seemingly disappeared. More and more I ponder on what happened to all the people that posted here over the years. Did they drop the hobby? Did they get tired of this forum? Where has everyone gone? It's kind of sad.
