Did anyone get his Email?
I've only got Email and phone numbers from CFL lurkers.

He told me when I talked to him at ttpg that he would no longer be on the forum do to the app being gone.
Well, that's just a real shame! Darn it.
@Grandpa Turtle 144 and I also have not seen @orv in quite some time.
I hate it when we lose valued members like that.
I hope they know they can still use rhe phones to get on the forum without using the app. I found the app much more difficult.

There are a LOT of lost members that were very, very nice to know.
That's all I use is my phone.
I'm assuming my Kindle is like a phone. I access the Forum through the web on my Kindle when I'm in the bedroom end of my house, and through the web on my computer when I'm at the other end of my house. The Kindle version is a bit different from the computer version, but it's not hard to use.
I wish I would’ve thought to get his email

I spoke with Orv in the beginning of October. He and his wife had been on an extended vacation (for months). They were back home and doing fine.
While gone, he had received the weekly forum digest, but had not posted at all.
He said he was coming back on, but I don't know how he accessed the forum. Maybe he doesn't know how? I might give him a call, and tell him he is missed.
I can't help but wonder if Josh considered how many members would leave. Anyone who is online is being tracked all the time. We should have been notified of his concerns, then given a choice to continue as we were.

No, and I PM'ed him a while back. No response.
The administration - I presume - has each and every member's email address. Right, @Yvonne G ? In such a case we should be able to contact him.
I think part of the problem (for some folks) is the overall screen size. Two issues - 1. the forum just looks different/formatted different so you get odd things happening and 2. the small screen of a phone makes the overall experience less enjoyable (small text, small pix). I’m glad TFO works well on iPads....that’s all I use.

You are correct on both counts. A BIG issue for me is no push notifications. I really don't want an email every time someone posts.
