How do I find a "lost" FR person?

[cantfindagoodscreenname]

I thought I'd Freepmail someone I used to talk to all the time on FR and now I see that there is no account with her name anymore. I used her personal e-mail address, but haven't heard from her yet. How can I find out what happened to her?

hire a private detective.

If your email didn't bounce back, then you can assume she received it.

If she didn't answer it, then you can assume she didn't want to answer it.

Leave her alone.

If you used an email address and the email account was no longer viable, the mail would have been bounced back to you. If it went through, the recipient might be using a secondary account that she only checks periodically. If she doesn't respond, you could try posting her FR screen name and see if anyone knows how to contact her.

Leave her alone.

You're very sweet. Thanks for a kind and thoughtful response. I happen to consider her a good friend, so I'm worried about her.

[cantfindagoodscreenname]

Her screenname was Riley1992.

Thanks...I'll give her more time to respond to my e-mail before I worry. I'm hoping she hasn't switched e-mail addies....now that I think of it, I probably have her snail mail address somewhere on my computer. I'll have to dig around.

Call 911. No one will show up but at least you tried.

Good idea. Please post another vanity and let us know how it comes out.

[muddypaws]

Powder..Patch..Ball FIRE!

Since someone else wasted bandwidth looking for a freeper, I'll add one as well.

I'm trying to find out about 'one_particular_harbour'.

I enjoyed crossing swords with him occasionally but now find there is no freeper with that name. Does that mean he closed his account, was banned, or simply changed aliases?

One_particular_harbor was a regular contributor at the "Word For The Day" thread. I'd wager that some of the folks who are active on that thread might know of his whereabouts. Link

You know, I thought long and hard about posting this. I have been on FR for many years and have never seen a vanity post of someone looking for another Freeper. I really hoped I wouldn't get raked over the coals for it. I would like to know what vanity posts are supposed to be for. If they are discouraged, why is there a category for posting them?

BTW, I looked for One_Particular_Harbour this morning because he was friends with Riley1992 and noticed that his name doesn't exist anymore.

Well, this is my last post on this thread because I found her snail mail address and I'll just send her a Christmas card and wait to hear from her. Thanks to those of you who have tried to be helpful. To the rest of you, thanks for nothing, lol. Don't worry. I can dish it out, so I can take it.

I think OPH moved to libertypost.

[AppyPappy]

He also posted an opus saying he needed time away if I remember correctly.

One word: holidays

Expect a lot of people to start posting again when the "What did you get for Christmas" threads show up. :-)

[cynicom]

cant....

Some people are rude by nature. When they can hide and be anonymous, they really show their character and societal manners. I will apologize for them as they have not the manners to do so themselves. Hope you find the lady.

I think xsmommy knows where OPH is now.
