Miss you, Rob. 
Same, Hope! You should at least come around every once and a while. You were such an awesome part of my early recovery, I feel like I’m missing a piece of myself without you.
Well I am back, I don’t think I made enough contribution to the forum to be sadly missed.
@Kobe RIP legend
Thanks for asking Geoff. I’d just assumed he was only posting in the private group.
He’s not been part of that for a while now Cate
His account is still there. He’s just currently suspended. Indefinitely, I believe. I think it’s been a few months at this point.
Oh wow, okay.
I had no idea; just know he was not posting recently.
He has been banned and will not be back.
What’s the private group 
It’s basically using the personal message function, but adding folks. So it becomes a thread that only those folks see. Anyone can create one. It’s usually for like-minded people, or people who share similar issues, who want to chat away from the main forum.
So you either start one or get a message inviting you to join an existing one. Gareth was in one that I used to belong to.
Clear as mud? 
Oooh Ouch!! No I haven’t 
I just read on his bio page he posted 4 days ago; said he was busy with the boys and baseball.
Yep got it. I’m in an AA one
