I think that’s a good idea. Even if Admin had a phone number? When I was in hospital I had no access to internet, which was frustrating, however my mobile phone is always with me. How do you suggest we organise it Polls?
So far, Poll and I have each other’s contact details, to be fair, we’ve had them for quite a long time, we chat all the time. But since yesterday, I now have swapped details with Carole and Tracey. I suppose it’s just pick a person or two and swap details so someone has a way of finding out if anything has happened to stop a generally prolific poster from doing so. It would stop the rest of us worrying like we have over Antony.
Slightly off-topic but not exactly(!), can anyone tell me how the ‘buddy’ thing works on here? - if I go on my own profile it says I have no buddies (lol, billy-no-mates, me!) but gives no clues, whatsoever, as to how I add or connect with anyone to become buddies in the first place! Am I missing something here or just being a bit thick?!?
I don’t believe he’d ignore our concerns if he was reading the forum. This makes me doubt he has either his computer or internet access. I’m sure you’ll report back if you hear from him Geoff.
I’d like to suggest that one of the contact email addresses or phone numbers belongs to a third party. There may be situations where the “missing person” doesn’t have access to the Internet or to their phone. So it would be useful to have their home phone number (if they live with someone) or details for a family member, friend or carer.
Let’s also remember that sometimes people, for their own reasons either prefer to remain relatively anonymous and / or to decide to take a break from the forum, without us taking offence.
We’d maybe all be quite surprised to find that AD has vanished off the boards of his own volition. But it’s possible.
I think its a really good idea!
