It seems a lot of people on here disappear after awhile. Kinda sad . I have like over 500 team members but a lot of them just aren’t on or don’t post much. I’m grateful to the people I met on here that post as much as I do. I know people move on or feel this site is not what they expected. To the long timers on here how many people have disappeared from your team and do you ever wonder what happened to them?

Members responded warmly to the question about disappearing members, with many checking in to share that life simply gets busy with jobs, family, health challenges, and the need to unplug from social media. Several members reflected on friends they had lost, noting that some members have passed away, and shared that administrators can add a memorial banner to a profile when notified. A recurring theme was that even when members go quiet, the sense of community and belonging keeps drawing people back, with many expressing gratitude for the connections made on the site.

Working. Traveling for work. Fing exhausted. Cant do social sometimes. We cant have our own perceptions of other peoples lives

Me too. Life sometimes grabs our attention and responsibilities beckon. I guess that this site fills different needs for different people.

I am still here checking messages here and there. Busy at work and babysitting my brother inlaw's 24 yo son. Not fun, making sure he does not get in trouble or burn down the house is more work than taking care of a couple of toddlers.
