He seemed to be having a meltdown. Not surprising.

What went wrong???

His plate was definitely full - I know that.

Dunno, I wish someone would tell me.

Wow - that's really odd; I hope Robert is okay. I know that he was having some problems at work, basically "we love you but we're cutting your hours." But I certainly didn't see this coming.

I do hope he's ok! He usually discussed work problems/rants/developments on here quite openly.

I just tried to send him an email and now it is no longer possible. He emailed me recently as I am reading his book. I know he had talked before about posting too much and wanting to cool it down some. But a sabbatical is one thing. Out and out deletion quite another.
I do hope all is well.

thanks for clarifying!

Ok - so I just looked at the link above and it is in response to some negativity (directed at someone else). Can't blame him as I have more than once contemplated the same.
Though never thought the inanities of Facebook a possible replacement.
There you go.

I have heard from a reliable source that Robert consciously decided to move on and he didn't want any long goodbyes. He did not quit Live Journal in anger, nor has there been a catastrophic event in his personal life. He has just decided to do other things with his time. He will be greatly missed on here.

I can't think that Facebook would be a more snark-free zone than here.

He will be greatly missed on here.

Very much so!!

I was surprised to see his LJ deleted too.
