[Question] Where's Netkeeper?

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 09-10-2016, 09:46 AM

Last I checked he hasn't posted in like a month, and was fairly active before that.
Normally I wouldn't give much thought to it - everyone gets busy sometimes - but it's no secret he was having some serious health problems, psychologically.
Has anyone had contact with him within the past few weeks? I hope he's all right.

*ToTheNines* · 09-10-2016, 10:24 AM

I've noticed his absence as well, but have no way of contacting him. Hope he comes back soon.

*snake* · 09-10-2016, 10:42 AM

Didn't he have his bubblyshell metldown right before he left? I hope he's alright as well.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 09-10-2016, 10:57 AM

I hope he comes back IMPROVED. More of the same I'm not interested in. But right now his absence can only be a good thing for him... seems like this place was driving him up the wall.

Yeah. I hope he's getting the help he needs right now instead of digging himself into a bigger hole. Hopefully he's still out there...

Hopefully he's alright.

But yeah, a break from this place may do him a lot of good

*Cure* · 09-10-2016, 02:01 PM

I don't think he's ever gonna get the "safe space" he needs here.

I don't believe there is such a thing as a "safe space" in a public forum. I mean, you can't control other people (unless you're a mod).

You either figure out a way to coexist, you use the Ignore option, or you leave.

*Cure* · 09-10-2016, 02:18 PM

Yeah, exactly.

*CyberCubed* · 09-10-2016, 03:42 PM

I'm sure netkeeper is fine. Some people just take a break from forums.

Does everytime someone is gone for a month you guys get concerned?

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 09-10-2016, 03:46 PM

Actually, 'Cubed, re-read my first post!

Come to think of it, we never did see Dirty Blonde show up again, did we? The last thread he made said, "I wish I was dead. Period." and we never heard from him since.

I wonder if he's still alive.

*Powder* · 09-10-2016, 04:54 PM

He's still posting on Tumblr, so I assume he's fine.

thundermaster612 · 09-10-2016, 06:09 PM

He's right up there with Waldo

*CyberCubed* · 09-10-2016, 09:12 PM

People come and go. Half the people from back around 2005-2012 or so don't post here anymore either or barely post.

Not everyone sticks around forums forever besides a select few like myself.

Yeah, it's kinda sad how people can let internet message forums get to them like this. I think his issues lie deeper.

Nope, he hasn't posted again. You did say that he logged in a time or another ever since his last post, however.

*Papenbrook* · 09-10-2016, 10:17 PM

I don't mean to convey a sense of cynicism, but I don't think NetKeeper's returning.

This place isn't/wasn't a good place for him. He couldn't express his opinion(s)/perspective on a topic without people either mocking his beliefs or viciously bullying him. In addition, he was clearly stressed out about his current situation; the circumstances surrounding the Technodrome (at that time) didn't help. I feel like everyone should have made an effort to treat him better, myself included. I feel sorry for him, and I hope he gets the help he needs.

Anyway, I think he's gone for good. It's a shame.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 09-10-2016, 10:28 PM

That's utter poppycock.
No one openly mocked his beliefs nor "viciously [bullied] him", unless you can cite an instance of deliberate intent to offend him.
It seemed to me he had a number of personal issues that cascaded on him at once and ended up with him freaking out. It had nothing to do with how 'Dromers treated him.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 09-10-2016, 10:30 PM

"Papenbrook Shames Us All."

That's Bingo for me; g'nite, everybody!

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 09-10-2016, 10:31 PM

Bingo already?? Prove it! Show me your board!
