I could feel "through the ether" that she was rather upset about the thread asking her to provide a picture of herself. Some tried in what they thought as "humorous" ways to push the envelope and I thought at the time "Please don't drive her away!" Perhaps it's just a coincidence that she "disappeared" one week later. People have good reasons for not giving their real names or pictures on this or any other forum and we need to respect that. Elizabeth or maybe it was because she was told " If the forum is bothering you that much, then get off of it, put in your DVD of The Homecoming or some other heartwarming Christmas movie, then sit back and relax with a cup of hot chocolate." that the next day she left. No one is going to know anything until she comes back and says why she left. I guess I missed this thread along with the one about real names and photos.

She is probably just taking a break or her computer died. I believe she said if it died, she would not replace it.

If I remember correctly the "get off it " quote was not directed at any individual and was just a general comment. I really miss Jeri and worry about her. I am also one of those people who look for her name every time I log in.

Nope, This is what she said: " This is starting to suck some of the joy of Christmas out of me !! -- I hope it ends soon." This was the response: "I hope no one lets this or anything on this forum take the joy out of their Christmas. If the forum is bothering you that much, then get off of it, put in your DVD of The Homecoming or some other heartwarming Christmas movie, then sit back and relax with a cup of hot chocolate." That was a diplomatic response, but whatever...

Here is a link to the actual post Scarlett is referring to: waltonswebpage.proboards.com/post/78446If you'll notice, several people "liked" the post, including Jerijet. It was posted on December 15. She did not leave the following day. She continued "liking" posts and posting on the forum until December 18th, then she mysteriously disappeared.

Just a thought...
As someone has already mentioned that she's hidden herself from showing online, maybe she is still around but just not posting anymore??

I honestly don't know why Jeri just up and left. If she was angry about something, that's one thing, but, I have sent her PM's, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, and she has read them, but not responded. I don't know what to think. I do wish her the best, I am worried about her, and I hope she comes back soon. I also hope if she feels hurt by any comments, that she will see how we are all worried about her, and wish her well.

We can speculate till the cows come home, but looking at Jeri's last few posts, I see no indication of someone wanting to voluntarily leave. Looking at her posts on Dec 15 and 16, she seemed happy. She even took the time to copy and paste a list of keepers, was happy about the Carol Burnett show being on, thanking Uncle Coaster for a post, waiting for ice skating pictures from Foreverwaltons. This does not fit the profile of anyone who is about to leave.
Secondly, she told me, if she ever left the boards, she wanted to keep it touch with me and we exchanged email addresses. So again if she left I assume she wanted to keep in touch with me. I have sent 2 emails, no response.
Therefore I can foresee 2 possibilities: 1) Like PatriciaAnne has said, maybe her computer died. That's why we haven't heard from her. That is a distinct possibility. 2) Something happened to her that she is unable to post. (Illness, etc..)
We are all hoping for the former, but deep in my mind I have sort of have a bad feeling it's the latter and I pray that is not the case.

If her computer/dial-up finally gave up the ghost, I wish she would go to the library to use one of their computers and just let us all know that. If that is the case and she doesn't want to put the money into being able to be online anymore, then just tell us good-bye. I have honestly and truly been worried about her. It makes me think she may have had a stroke or some other serious health crisis. She was on here faithfully everyday (unless she took a short trip) for over three years.

I am very worried given some things she told me in a pm. Please be well Jerijet...we miss you! Thoughts and prayers are with you! I note this post from Rebecca Lee back at the beginning of January. I don't think she has posted since. Wondering if Rebecca Lee might have contacted, or been contacted by JeriJet?

I have a feeling that it is not something someone said, but something like her computer dying or an illness. I hope and pray that Jerijet is well and I will be thinking about her.

You can tell that she has read them? There is an envelope beside the message that is closed until someone reads the message. Unless, I'm wrong in thinking that...maybe Brenda will know for sure.
