Speedy-D Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 There's a lot of boardies I miss. Sal only posts a little bit, xxHBTHXxx only posts once in a while, AlecHolland has stuff to deal with...BuffyFan disappeared for a while... I guess I have more attachment to you dorks than others do, I suppose. I don't understand how people can disappear. I stopped posting for more than a day, and couldn't stand it. I liked Sal's posts, all Aok with him? Sal's just married and living life. I think he stepped outside one day and never looked back. It's surprisingly easy to step away from here and realize months have gone by... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyekndy Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) Hello all =) I haven't been a super active member on here in probably 10+ years! I had pm'd comicgrinder a few times since then but never got any responses which I thought was odd for him!? He was the 1st board member to welcome me aboard & buy my 1st book (ASM#28 CGC 9.0). Others were scared to buy my high end keys since I was new, But he broke the ice for me and left me some great feedback that assured others I was a great guy & trustworthy! So I'd chat with him every once in awhile on & off over the years. I just noticed this thread and it says he is/was sick!? Is he ok? Hope nothing really bad happened!? He was an awesome guy! If anyone knows him I'd appreciate an update on him! Thanks! Edited February 26, 2017 by Eyekndy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakman29 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 unfortunately comicgrinder is not doing well, here is my last PM from him. Quote comicgrinder Replied: December 27, 2015 · Report I would love too but right now im not sure how much longer ill be around. The health care system is dropping the ball BIG time . Theyve mentioned in passing that I might lose my feet if it gets much worse. Theyve done nothing so far. So while Ive been bed ridden these last 7 months or so Ive been working on these. thought id offer em here on the boards as a thanks , in a way, for the help this community gave me when I was in trouble. Is that a stupid idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VintageComics Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Wasn't there some controversy about 'Grinder stating he didn't have money but was buying books? Something along those lines. If it wasn't him I apologize. He contacted me recently (can't remember which venue I was traveling) and I didn't reply because I was unsure of the past history).
