    I know we cannot call out players in the forums but hope this list is acceptable.

    Like everyone we have players on our friends lists who stop playing, either burnt out, disillusioned or have other reasons they stop playing. I have a few players like that on my list but we still touch base from time to time via email or PM's. But the following seem to have just dropped off the radar - does anyone know why?

    2DAMFLASHY - Request by Scott. Wall says RIP - and confirmed by a good friend of his, Dave, you are missed. RIP

    Andrewmca - apparently killed in Afghanistan - RIP Andy

    Aussiemite - (Request AlaskanDame)

    Bubbadork

    Chasmiester (Request Bassmaster) - not sure if this is a serious request lol. Probably banned for hitting 100,000 complaints

    Chris5214 - Was heard from a friend a few weeks ago - is into iRacing and was sick of the BS in the game and forums - hopefully Chris will pop in occasionally - hell of a guy. Plays on another golf site.

    Hey what happened to Bubba dork and Creamer , and also Goldeena ? Bubba always had a wonderful yet somewhat dry sense of humor about him and deena was just a true live wire . She could clock 60 from the word go . Oh and has anyone heard from or know how our dear and wonderful Lizzie Rosetti is doing ? She hasnt been in the forums now for a very good while .

    Bubba hasnt played since 8/1/13 .Guess had finally had enough of either the game , or us poor lowly illiterates . I`m tempted to post something without punctuation , just to see if I can do a resurrection .hahahahahahaha .

    May need to get some players across the water to do a physical check on Lizzie , as not only have I but others as well have posted on their wall with no reply .

    Holy chit - that is really gut wrenching news - he was a hell of a guy, funny as and will be missed.

    Whilst terrible news, thanks for letting us know.

    Edit - I have wondered what happened to Bubba - as cantankerous as he could be, was a good laugh. Deena still pops in occasionally and as far as I know still is waiting for another golf site to come on line lol - I just hope she did not hold her breath.

    +1

    Not to mention his passion for spelling and punctuation. I still ROFL when I think of how he emphasized the need to use correct punctuation with:

    Jack! Off that horse!

    No Chit - I copped his wrath re punctuation and felt like a giddy little school kid!
