Who do you miss on the Warrior Forum?

It seems lately a lot of the old well known Warrior's
have disappeared.

Many of these guys (and ladies too of course) in
the past posted up some quite brilliant information.

Who do you miss seeing specifically on a regular
basis?

And can you point us to some of their best quality
threads please?

Can we have a blast from the past?

Please feel welcome to post up the links to these
threads below from either this forum or the old
Warrior Forum.

Many thanks,


Mark Andrews

    Not sure. Half the people you miss might be some of the people you still talk to and dont know it , what with all the identity changes... I miss the first 7 versions of Dave Patterson.

    Especially Pat Daverson. She was cool.

    On another note,miss reading fresh stuff from Allen / Edit: Allen Says. You dont seem to see much of that anymore. He has alot of great stuff to say mixed with spiritual/universal lessons which is how I like my truth delivered because I seem to assimilate better in esoteric terms. He is good at that.

    Road Dog was the first person to come to mind. There was someone else I was wondering about the other day, but I can't recall the name right now. Guess I don't miss them enough yet. :p



    Edited to add: I remembered who I was thinking of the other day that I miss around here - Michael Mayo.

    I miss Mike Wright and Indy. When they and Tommy got together there was always some fun banter that required using some neuron power to keep up. Fun guys. Don't know if the Nonsense thread can be accessed anymore - but the guys on there were the best. A few are gone and a few are still here, at least once in awhile, but the terrain has changed with time too. I miss the old one even though many still pass through now and again.

      I do remember John Calder.
      Its my understanding Teresa is out of IM.
      She helped me so much when I was first starting out.
      She is actually the one that told me about the WF back in the late 90s.
      There is a john I remember too ,but I don't know of think its the same one your thinking of, John Williams? I was Majik when I first joined the forum, his user name was something like "a magician" I think.

      If John Ritz is same as John Ritzkowski (sp?) , then he is also missed,but unlike others cannot and won't be coming back.

      I hadn't thought of Mike Wright in ages. Anyone know anything about him?

      I didn't know Indy as well as you and some others Sal, but he sure had some interesting posts.

        Whatever happened to David Cavanagh?

        Willie Crawford, not seen too much of him lately either or Ron Douglas.

        Andy Henry, Kyle Tully, ExRat, Gordon Alexander...

        ...are just a few other other names immediately jumping to mind.

        Me too. I forget what she was selling but it was something like a Paypal protection script and she taught me a lot, helped me make some sales, etc. I'm getting old and don't remember all the details but impressions are still strong. And this lady has a strong one with me.

          Frank,
          Jared is a good one.Its been ages since Ive seen anything from him.
          TomW doesn't ring a bell.
          Diana Lane, Seems she was being stalked by a someone,not sure if it was a WF member or not, but she basically gave up IM from what I understand. A shame, I bought developers rights to a theme she made but apparently due to the above mentioned problem has stopped supporting it.
          From her WF profile page:
          "Encountered one online stalker too many so sold up most of the empire and gone travelling."
          Sad. last seen in March of 2009.

          Annoyed girl? I don't have a clue what happened to her. Maybe Sal does?

          Ah Allen Says.
          I don't see much activity here by him but I see him listed as being on FB at times. I wonder if he ever dreamed the WF would become what it has?

          Teresa was also one of the driving forces behind EBookwholesalers.Net.
          And she did sell a pp script. Had a weight loss affiliate site and many other things going on.

          IM was like an uncharted ocean back then.

            Valerie was last here in October, it seems.

            The other person I miss, not yet mentioned above, who was very good to me when I was starting off, is JayXtreme (though I know he does check in occasionally, and I noticed he "thanked" a post in early March, and I suspect he may look in without logging in, sometimes, too).

        Thanks for that.

        I've only seen Michael here one or two times since he started that thread about losing his job. Hopefully he's started his own business and is just too busy to check in.

      You and Indy were such a help to me when I was first starting out. Especially when I was blindly walking through the minefields that IM can be for complete newbies and naively stepped on a couple of hot ones.

      I was totally freaking out and I'll never forget when Indy said to me, Don't worry, you're safe. We've got you, you're in the matrix now.

      Whew! I don't know where I'd be if it weren't for the two of you!

    Don't post things in threads that don't relate to the thread.
    We are talking about people we haven't seen in ages ,which would indicate we are long time members, so we already know there are some great posts here.
    If you want to make a thread introducing yourself and telling how you have already benefited from being here,that's great.
    But one last thing you might want to know.
    Posts here in the Off Topic forum don't add to your post count.
    If you want to do that,and really benefit ftom the Warrior Forum, then post upstairs in the main forums.

    Have a great day!

    She helped me so much when I was first starting out.
    She is actually the one that told me about the WF back in the late 90s.
    Yep. Teresa's out of the game.

    She had as big an influence on this place in the early daze as anyone. She created the notion of a special offer for Warriors, from Warriors. She helped more people here in her time than anyone I can recall. And she was a consistent voice for responsible marketing.

    Classy lady.
    TomW doesn't ring a bell.
    Really? Wow.

    Any time he and Roger (ExRat) would get into a thread together, it was worth reading, even if only to watch their minds at work. (He's the one who created the RatSignal.) Tom still comes around. Hasn't posted in a long time, though.
    If John Ritz is same as John Ritzkowski
    Ritzkowitz. And yeah... That was sad news. He was one of the good guys.

    Sal,
    Just was upstairs and apparently it seems John Taylor just dropped off the map a few weeks ago
    He logged in within the past few days. Haven't seen a post from him in a while. Hopefully he's just out woolying up his Wellies.

    I'm surprised no-one mentioned Michael Tracey. He posts occasionally, but not like he used to.

    Lots of good people have come and gone over the past 15 years.

      He's at the top of my list but I've fairly recently had contact with him so I didn't.

      Kurt too (before he went almost exclusively off topic). He used to post some killer stuff but probably got tired of the infighting over his insights and strategies.

      They both are good people.

          Paul
          I can relate to Marks post alot Paul. Sometimes it gets to be a drag even logging on... fighting with people....constantly being challenged.

          When it really starts getting tiring is when you start recognizing them and saying "I have already fought this fight before" ....different name, same scene...

          If you take a break from the forum for a week or two these kind will intentionally set out to dismantle every valuable thread to your name... So you are stuck in a position where its hard to take breaks because people are always waiting in line to destroy your work if you walk away from your post.

          Then you get like I did last week and say "I dont care anymore....let them do what they are going to do...", and you start thinking that even if they destroyed all your WF work it wouldnt destroy YOU....

          lol....

          So I dont care hence, I just want to roll my eyes and give them one word responses like "Sigh".... I guess this is the new plateau.

          What happens to many is that they let themselves be run off by these things and they dont do what Pauls "voice" material suggests.... which is to focus on what you LIKE in your business...and not entertain neg people.... Just be who you are u-n-a-b-a-s-h-e-d-l-y (LOL YEAHH BABY! Love that word!), and the people that love you will love you and the people that dont "are of no consequence" (Thank you Jimbo13).

          I really GOT this post. More than I wish I did. But Hey its par for the course, just like anything else; if you cant take the heat, get out of the fire.

          Today I am just me- buy me- dont buy me- believe me- donmt believe me- I dont care.... Its not my loss. Im sharing what I share and if you want to debate go for it...you will be swinging alone.

          Okay,okay, Im not there yet- I still fight back- but my goal is to get there.

      That's very kind to notice I am not hanging out here at WF anymore. Big changes in my life, but things are going to work out fine. Not renewing registration on any of my websites. Life has just handed me too many surprises, and being at a computer for more than a half hour a day is just no longer possible. Dealing with family health matters... but things are improving. It is just slow going. So glad to see Kim W got his transplant and is on the mend.

      Thanks for thinking of me!
