This has been asked several times. Some we do, ie sparky and Tory Councellor, but most we probably won't.

Kenny......how did the forum find out they had passed away??

Well, it was reported on the forum. So the person or people who reported it obviously had some other means of contact.

I am sure Betfair would be aware of any deaths.

If there was no activity on an account for a period of time they would not doubt write to the account holder at their last known address and enquire about their wellbeing.  This way, the letter could be picked up by the next of kin who could arrange for the balance on Betfair returned to the deceased's estate.

Can anybody remember Pauli (I think that was his name). He seemed a really nice bloke, he regularly took part in the NAPS comps, and he'd always congratulate winning nappers. He had a dry sense of humour and often use to make me smirk on Zodiac's AP threads. He just stopped posting one day, and I always wondered if he might've died (I presumed he was an older poster).

Kweeveen's last post was on one of his his quiz threads on 30 Nov 15 at 22.32

"Thanks for finishing this lads.......


will do one again in a few days..


cheers Kweeveen"


Why didn't he come back?
Report kenny mann • January 24, 2017 8:27 PM GMT
many vanish without trace. not many daft enough to waste 15 years of their life here, like me. Shocked

one of my favourite posters many years ago was the speed cop roanman, who disappeared very suddenly, as has naydam, much more recently.
Report Makybe_Diva • January 24, 2017 8:31 PM GMT
Yes, Naydam used to post quite a lot.

It's very odd for someone to stop posting suddenly.

it's obvious - someone on here is a killer?

slowly hunting us all down.... killing us with such
expert skill that it isn't noticed.
perhaps bad shell fish or paper cuts, laced with radium?

or a brick to the head? crafty Knt.
