Remember that guy on here that stopped posting after 9/11. Did we ever find out what happened?

yea 🙁 God rest his soul.

Edit: Astaroth: bit before my time as a member, but I would always remember his posting in the hot deals forums as a lurker.
 
I believe that was determined to be a family member or someone checking out his computer. Wasn't it generally thought that he was on one of the planes that crashed into the WTC?

hmm... how would the family member know that he would visit this forum?

Perhaps it was bookmarked in the favourities. And, of course, the password was set to 'remember'.

In the history file you can launch and if his aithentication is automatic, no problem. Anyone with access to my computers can do the same thing.

This was all a general consenus back in 2001. Nothing was ever comfirmed.

I believe it WAS confirmed. There is a listing online of all of the people who were on the highjacked planes that day. As Hawkeye frequented the hot deals and for sale/trade forums, several members knew his full true name and his address. I believe it was determined in a previous post that he did indeed pass away on september 11th.

Rest in peace buddy
 
Actually, IIRC, they emailed the sister of the guy they thought he was and she replied that he didn't own or use a computer so HawkeyeNJ was no tthe same guy as the one who was in the plane crash.
 
What a goddamned shame. He was a nice person too. Contributed alot to FS/FT.

Why don't the arseholes ever get it?

Because they're usually the one's who are causing things like 9/11.
