Whilst not knowing TD other than meeting him and his hound a few times via OOF (and sharing a tend with the Gruesome Twosome at the Newent meet last year   :o   :o  ) I suspect that it is a 'technical' thing rather than a 'real' thing, if you follow.  No doubt all will come clear in time....   :y

That is his original profile with 720 days since joining.  i suspect an error somewheres whereby he has a)either deleted himself by mistake or b) got binned by some accident when OOF fell over earlier.....

Nothing other than a Glitch I hope, he looks like it's just a case off his details have been wiped.

ens hough,doesnt it.

people become bored or a comment is made and, because of the obvious lack of emotion the written word has, its aken the wrong way and, before anyone knows it, the offede has taken their leave.

im sure they will be back if they really want to be, otherwise, like our cars, just keep plodding along. lol

Did notice the ex-member thing and am glad to see it wasn't intentional.., or by clicking on the wrong button.., now that could be quite irritating :P (it happens lol)

Title: Re: Losing members...
Post by: JonArgraig on 29 June 2008, 10:34:58
I forward the the motion that TD2 is only hear to jump on the good name of "Taxi Driver" in a atepment to get round the post count rule in the for sale section...

never trust a user with a screen name under 4 digits long...

Had a rummage around the dusty buttons in the back of the admin playroom.  Pressed a couple that put the forum into maintenance mode (  :o   :o   :o ) and done who knows what, where.  Better leave it to a clever person to rectify (TB, MDTM, LB66 or AA) rather than mistakenly delete postcounts here there and everywhere, however good intentioned it may be...   :y
