    Just to lift the curtain a bit, myself, spider, LT, Opti and jj have been in a private chat for a year when the forum was sold. Just so we could get our heads straight and help each other out, vent, etc. Ironically other than JJ, it’s quite normal for the rest of us to post several times a day. Especially LT and spider about grading contests and payouts.

    The last time spider posted in our private chat was July 22 and this is from a guy who was dealing with contests while quietly hiding his chemo from the forum. Even while in the hospital he’d still post every day.

    We’re going to continue to do our best to find his family, pass on our condolences and set up either a go fund me or charity link, whatever they may prefer. We’ll let you know if/when we’re successful.

    Anyone know how old Spidey was? Was this a premature check out in life?

    The age expectancy is dropping for people in life now unfortunately..

    Worst news you can get on a forum is a poster not healthy, family issue or passing

    We are here every day together

    My last interaction with him, he reset my trivia after a lock up.
    I got all 3 questions right.


    ...seems so unimportant right now.
    sad day.

    Wait, nobody knows for certainty this guy passed and we're throwing dirt on him. Shouldn't we wait to hear from next of kin? SBR should have an emergency contact. Every business does this for employees. If they don't, you think they should start?

    i think what Opti was saying he would have to be captured by the taliban to stop posting / grading / returning emails

    amazing strength of character shown to the very end Ranger

    we wish his family peace

    This is odd to not have info from family. Anyone knows if he was US based or overseas employee?

    Yes SBR have contact info. And know where he lived.

    We have not sent anyone to Greece to knock on the door but have tried everything else we know to confirm how he is.
