    He was on according to statistics at 4.36 yesterday. It shows he doesn't have any previous posts though so I think he has asked for them to be deleted or was a very convincing troll all along and maybe got banned?

    He doesn't have any previous posts because if i remember correctly he did say something like he was a longtime user but had created a new user name so as not be identified.

    But why?, unless i've missed something, what's the problem in showing concern for someone.

    It may have been because I said I thought it was a bit "rude" to delete a thread when there were over 400 posts by members offering genuine concern, support and advice ....... that is all I said. There were no abusive posts.

    I wonder how long it will be before this thread gets deleted......

    Well that's far from rude, there is a thread on here that has broken out in to an all out war at times and mods have posted on it telling people to calm down but it's still there.
