Hey, man....Sorry, but I've been out of the loop for a while with computer troubles, and I had no idea you were thinking of leaving us.
Don't do that, dude. You have bro's here. I've enjoyed every conversation we've ever had. Hell, you even inspired me on a few things!
I don't know what's going on in your life, and I'm too damn far away to help, but I can offer this: You are not alone in the world, and others have it worse than you. Life has it's ups and downs, and when life is 'up'...you feel like a king. When life is 'down'...you have two options--You can crawl into your cave, feel sorry for yourself, and wonder why you are there----Or you can draw sword, face the wind, grit your teeth, and do what you know you can do to slay the dragon.
Don't let the dragons win. "F" the dragons.

So I've been in fairly regular contact, off the forum, with our friend here for a few years now. Recently we've started chatting on discord.
He's been up and down a lot lately but seems like he's up more than down, so there's that.
I asked him today how he was doing, mentioned seeing these threads, and got some answers.
Unfortunately, he has no recollection of making these threads as, he admits, he was quite heavily intoxicated at the time. Turns out it was a bit of a down moment, and he only intended to respond to fallen's photo thread, but had a few too many and lost himself a little.
He was embarrassed to learn of the threads, apologizes, and is grateful for everyone's support and encouragement, but says he won't be posting here anymore, anyway.
I wasn't going to say anything, but he asked me to convey his appreciation for those who reached out with kindness, so I told him if there were any more posts I would. There's been two since, so here we are.
Looks like things are getting better for him, but he's got some trials ahead and will be taking some time for himself, thus the absence. If anyone's interested, I'll update them privately when I hear from him, but I'm not gonna air anything publicly. Surely some of you know how to reach him yourselves, but if you don't and you're concerned, throw me a PM and I'll pass it on to him.
Thanks guys.

Thanks a bunch for the update, random. It seemed out of character, and this explains things. Next time you speak to him please let him know everything's cool here, no need to be embarrassed. I can remove anything he posted that he would like removed. It's pretty evident that if he wishes to come back there are people who would very much welcome that. Thanks for being willing to speak on his behalf as well.

Thanks again, guys.
Adrian: He says, "Tell him to delete the negative stuff," but didn't go into specifics, so I guess the other threads and maybe this one?

I got rid of the negative stuff. Edited this one just to include his contact info for those that want it.

Battling alcoholism is a tough fight. I know. DEMONS ARE REAL. I KNOW. What one man can do, another man can do also. I KNOW.

I emailed him today. He's a trooper. He'll be fine with the support of friends. When it all comes down, friends are all you really have. A dear friend of mine (now departed) was fond of saying: " Friends are family that you choose." Totally true.

Djinn...and now No One...you know I have your back. So come back! We all do silly semprini on this forum at times (look at my Game of Thrones posts for measure, many silly 'dddrunk posts')
Yeah...I have a mental condition. It's called realism. I wish others would understand. So I study swordsmanship instead. So far, so good.

Battling alcoholism is a tough fight. I know. DEMONS ARE REAL. I KNOW. What one man can do, another man can do also. I KNOW. I dont blame him. Have to hold myself back from it almost every day; only because of the cats and the lady. Wen enough weight is being put on your back you snap, and you go see the bottle instead of the doctor. Its sooo tempting - and so easy to get the stuff here in paradox Germany. They ban everything that has to do with drugs, ban tobacco, but go see a wine/beer/liquor department in one of of our big supermarkets - speechless. Around 1,77 million alcoholics and resulting 75.000 deaths every year in our little country...
