Where is Alex Plank?

I wrote a letter to him somewhere on this forum and then I tried to contact him via PM but got no answer.

I hope nothing happened to him!

He's usually busy, so he doesn't post very often here on Wrong Planet.

I see. Okay.

Sometimes I feel like I wait too late to do some things, including talking to people. When I have the opportunity to do something, I hold back, and then by the time I decide to finally do something, things change and it's too late, or I barely make it!

After first joining Wrong Planet, I got emails from Mr. Plank (I don't know if I'm older or younger than he is, we're not exactly friends but I'm friendly with him and everyone else on this site) but I think they were Announcement Emails, not personal emails. I didn't talk much to him if I ever did and I think I did a little, but now that I finally reached out to him, he's nowhere to be seen/reached.

That's life though, people eventually start getting busier later in life and it happens with my friends. I get to spend some time with people, and then later I start seeing them less because they're busy. I cannot say I feel abandoned, that's not quite true, but it is sad when we cannot see or talk to people as much as we want, though we have to understand why! And often times I take things and people for granted! :( I even don't know what I have till it's gone!

I'm not sure if this is true or not, but Alex Plank is friends with Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook fame.

That's a shame. Oh well!

On the other hand, I don't blame him and it's his choice. I have things in my life I really enjoyed but now don't want to do anymore!

I have been here since 2013 and what usually happens is that he is inactive for long periods of time then is very active working on the site for a brief period before going back to the rest of his life.

Thanks ASPartOfMe

I hope he comes back although I'll probably miss him if and when he does, I'm not on here a lot either or other places/websites I participate in.

But I do hope Alex gets my messages I sent him whether publicly or privately.
