I have been concerned about a member who has not been around for several days. I know she was very supportive and trying hard here.
And quite frankly I have been worried about her, and if she is ok.
And I have had this happen before and to be honest I DO WORRY.

Is there a way that PC can send an email just saying that members are concerned and want to make sure a member is ok?

I really respect the need to be anonymous for members, in my own situation and what I have shared here, I need to feel safe in that as well.
So, I don't ask people for their identity because I just want to respect them. But I know PC has my contact information and if I was struggling and doing really bad, it would be nice to know people are concerned, it may make a difference and can TRUELY REPRESENT "SUPPORT" IMO.

You could PM one of the administrators to see if they can send a message by email to this member. Some members have their settings up to receive emails - but if one does send an email, they will be able to see yours too. Its nice of you to be concerned and I've wondered the same thing several times.

Unfortunately, there is no way that administrators can "look" in on members who have not been active for awhile, by sending emails to them.

While we certainly appreciate that you are concerned about this member, the best thing you can do is to pm them and hopefully they do receive email notification of pm's to them, and they will come back and answer you soon.

This happens often with members who need a break, life gets too busy to be online, hospitalizations happen without warning, some may loose internet service, etc etc. This is something that happens being in an online community. We know it can be difficult to deal with at times, but the best thing you can do is to do your own self care.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
