Where's Deacon?

Anyone know why Paul's not been here for quite a while? Did the trolls drive him away? I miss his insight.
- best wishes, Jazz.

I've noticed this too. I also haven't seen Landon (Xceptnl) or Holland post for quite some time either. Chuck has been quiet, as well as MacLaren. Blerv has been quiet, but I guess he mentioned that he was taking a break here. It's a real shame because the playground here isn't as fun as it used to be... :(

^^^ Agreed. If any of you have Instagram and are interested, Landon posts pretty frequently on there.

It's possible. But also, it's summer. People have way more things to do besides hanging out online.

Me? Oh, we have wifi in the back yard, so I'm typing this from my lawn chair, having just finished cutting the grass ;)

You know come to think of it I haven't even seen Landon either here lately :confused: Maybe the Deacon is building himself a New Harley in his garage>> He'll call it the SPYDERHOG :eek: It will have serrated fenders and a plain edged gas tank :rolleyes:

But seriously I do hope Master Paul is doing all right because it does create a void when he's not here :(

Not to mention that Paul has duties as the mayor of Spyderville that he must not neglect :D I"m sure he'll be back shortly but I do hope that he's only just taking a break.

I talked to Landon on Instagram. He said he's just real busy with work and family but he said he'd try to come on more often to see what's going on and say hi. I just saw that he posted on Davids 6 month SE challenge/thing.

It's a shame when veterans let trolls spoil their fun. I haven't come here literally every single day for 5 years to let a few jackasses ruin it for me.

Glad to hear things are ok Landon. Most people have to drop off here every now and then due to life's demands on time and energy. We always end up back eventually.

Paul, I hope you are doing well also. I agree you too are a valued member and one of the few non Spyderco employees that can calm me down when I get riled up. :)

Hello my good friend. I'm sorry we have been out of touch, but I'm getting things under control. Lets catch up this weekend.

Quality Engineer in me saying that you did a good jot to determine a root cause of the problem. You hit nail in the head.
I talked with Paul. He and Bear are well.
