Where's John G.?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Catholic : One Thread

I was worried about our dear friend John. Did I miss something? Where did he go?

May the Lord protect and bless you where ever you are.

In Christ.

Apparently JFG and Eugene are both gone. :( Banished? I do not understand this either. I think we've both missed something. Perhaps the moderator deleted it? I learned so much from their comments. I have emailed the moderator for clarification. Can you tell me how this white supremisist garbage (recent post) got on a Catholic forum? If anyone should be banished, it should be him, shouldn't it? Pax Christi.

Hi Anna anyone can post onto this board and it will often get rubbish like this. Nothing can be done to stop people posting but the Moderator will clean it up when he gets online.

I emailed John a few days ago, and he told me that he wants to devote sometime to a few projects in his life, and will be taking some time off from the board. He said perhaps he will be back in the near future.

Hurry up, John & Eugene. My anti-modernist teeth are getting dull from non-use... =)

I found this link to some of Sister Faustina's works which everyone involved on all sides of disputes and disagreements here in the forum will benefit from. This is Sister Faustina of the Divine Mercy Chaplets.

Anna,

Both John and Eugene are free to post. They just are not doing so.

Hello, Jake H and Anna. Thank you so much for honoring me!
It's funny. I can almost copy verbatim a message that I left for MaryLu on another thread yesterday. Basically, I said this ...

A "little birdie" told me about this thread. I wouldn't have known about it, because I have been away from the forum for more than a week (working on a couple of projects). I'm not yet in a position of being able to predict if/when I will return to the forum.

I just wanted to thank you for all the extremely nice things you said about me. I was deeply moved by your concern and your praise.


Anna, it is nice to see your new "face" posting here at the forum. The moderator is correct in telling you that "Both John and Eugene are free to post. They just are not doing so."
In addition, so that you will have a bit more info (since you are new here), I'll just mention a bit of history, without going into detail and without any comments or opinions attached.

Until recently, I had been coming to the forum daily for three years, since January of 2000. I have never been banned or suspended, though I did leave the forum for about two months once before (at the end of 2000).
I can't recall any of my posts prior to 2003 being deleted. However, all of my posts of January 7, 10, and 13 (2003) were deleted, immediately after some changes in the forum's rules were announced by the moderator.

Until recently, Eugene Chavez had been coming to the forum daily for more than three years, since 1999.
I can't recall his ever being banned or ever having any of his messages deleted before 2003. However, all of his posts of January 7 and 13 were deleted. All of his posts of the 14th through 19th would have been deleted, if he had left any (which he did not). In other words, he was effectively suspended for a week (beginning on the 13th).


Friends, I'll be seeing you some day, I hope. I am remembering you in my prayers, and I hope that you will remember me in return.
John
