Former Members of Yore

I was looking at the old forum archive, noticed some names and felt a bit of sadness (really), a few of them were people that I doubt remember me but I remember them. I hope they are doing well.
James A, Mike (guitarmike), Eric, dkdk (Italian forum)
James and Mike are the 2 I remember most, both knew AP very well inside & out, and they both helped me publically and privately when I was trying to create a script for myself. Too many tips & tricks to recall and all of my notes were lost in a drive crash, sucks. James left first, kinda out of the blue, I thought he was older than most members, and he was (?) having health issues. I hope James is in good shape, alive and well. Mike invited me to participate in a project he had going on, we IRCed alot, he had many activities (tech, music) but always found time to help me. I know he was a bit tired of the issues with the old forum when he was trying to keep it afloat, he told me he wanted out and hoped someone would keep it going, thanks Vman. I hope all is well with Mike, including his music. He's a good guitar player, saw a video of his band - smokin if rock with a heavy dose of guitar is your thing.
Eric was a really cool guy, a regular with the 2k scripts, forum mod I think, smart, and very nice to everyone. I think he was a gamer too. He, Blazing Angel, and a few others were forum regulars, if I'm not mistaken even as far back as the previous (x2) official forum which I can't recall the name.
I had an Italian friend (online) from another unrelated forum that I introduced to AP. When I found out about dkdk_it and his Italian forum with a section dedicated to AP, I told my friend, his English was difficult to read and I didn't always understand what he was asking. The short story, dkdk's forum was very helpful and I was again amazed at the scope of the AP project, how cool most associated with project are. There were a few exceptions to the rule
There are others but these members stand out. If anyone has a clue how these bygone members are doing I would like to know. I've looked at the current members list, found nothing I suspect most of the new crew has little to no contact with those associated with AP back in the day
As another year ends, and a new year is upon us - Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
