Reading through some old threads like I do from time to time I come across names of forumers and wonder where are they now?

For some reason they stopped posting suddenly, have they fell out of love with golf? the forum? So this thread is to try to find out what happened to certain people and what are they up to now?

Feel free to nominate a name and together let's see if we can find out what they are doing now and see if we can tempt them back on to say a few words after perhaps several years in the wilderness.

I want to start with craphacker, can anyone tell me about him and what he is up to now? If you know him can you ask him to post on here? One of the first guys I met on here at a golf meet at red liberts years ago and it would be interesting to know what he is up to now.

Make a suggestion of a next person to ask about but only when we have found out the previous person.

So what do we know about Craphacker and can we get him on again?

Another one that was blackballed.

Can the mods un-blackball these people so we can at least send them a PM or is blackball for life?

There's levels of "blackball"
Temporary ones when you exceed your infraction limit and permanent ones when you've really been a bad boy!
I suspect there's no coming back from the second variety.
 
A few names that seldom post now, I think they got fed up with the constant bickering on here. Can't say I blame them. Fortunately I'm still in touch with them but I think this forum is a poorer place without their contributions.

Snelly
Therod
Swinger
Ethan

If i remember, and i might be doing him down, i think his business failed, his marriage failed, he gave up golf, and moved away. Not happy times, sadly.
 
Has Snelly gone ?? Anyone remember Mono ? Timgolfy ?

Used to enjoy the contributions of Atticus Finch, John Findlay (the original golf vlogger!!) and Birdieman.

Nice to hear you at least have a community here.

There are 2 types of guys on here, those that get involved and make useful contributions, attend meets etc and those that sit on the sidelines just making snide comments. It is entirely up to you how much you want to get involved but hopefully you will be the former :thup:

Sadly yes, he texted me a while back saying he was fed up with the atmosphere on here. I have his contact details, hopefully I'll get up north to have a game with him.

You're making me blush. I'm still here. It is a different place from what it used to be. Over moderated (no criticism Phil, just doing your job etc etc). More sanitised and repetitive. The latter is unavoidable.
I miss Snelly, Ethan, swinger, Crawford, bomber, dodger etc. You got to love a fella with a strong opinion.
I don't miss homer's slagging off some else's choice of course to join when he plays on a piece of ground who's best use is a car park for tommy Robinson to have a punch up in!!!!
I do enjoy his inconsistency however, and absolute nonsense. 'Used to play off 4, never broken 80 in a medal ' how does that work????? :o

work is mental! I'm only playing Saturdays at the moment ! I know life is over ;)
golf is OK though, I managed to creep down to 7, won nothing just x4 .2 reductions in a row. Big test tomorrow though :o
