TE members wellbeing

[mkamionka]

Hi Everyone,
People were always leaving this website and I can't say I am surprised.
It got worse when technical issues are not even attempted to be fixed anymore.
However, many of the members are older and we have the pandemic still around. I started to worry that some people's absence is not necessarily because they decided to leave the website. Maybe they need our help?
I suppose there is no way we can check on some TE members, whether they are ok?
Does anyone has any idea what we could do?
Kind regards,
M

Hi Mariusz,


It's possible to send them a message directly via the contact button in their profile.

For other reasons I've already contacted some members.
Some answer soon, others never... Did the latter never receive the message?...
I don't know.
They may have a new email account without adjusting it on this site.

Kind regards,
Paul

Сегодня ночью Сергея не стало...

This was the message on Serghei Pakhomoff’s FB page this morning...

COVID was cruel for our friend who has fought several weeks against it.

I know some of his old TE friends are still visiting the site from time to time and I thought they must know...

Rest In Peace Serghei...

Hello Viviane,

Thanks for checking. I guess he's just not posting at the moment.

Take care!

Hello Brenda,
I have been told, and I have seen it myself, that John is posting photos regularly on Twitter.
Have a nice day,
Gert

I think the increase in availability of other outlets for posting images has been a major reason for sites such as this one losing so much traffic. I'm not suggesting it's the only reason as IB action/inaction with the site has also had a serious effect.
