[ 2020 ] Tuggers I don't see posting any more? Where are they?

[billymach4]

Yes I imagine some may be in heaven in the timeshare in the sky.

There have been gaps in my activity over the last few years. But now I got the Tug Bug back.

Let me start by asking... Maybe he changed his handle.

The hockey guy in the Marriott Forum? PUCK.. was it Puckman. He is famous for the Puck Trick?
Tried looking up in the members. Can't locate him?

 

[billymach4]

Also I know that Fern Passed a few years back. Can you all please fill me in on who I may have missed that have unfortunately passed?

 

[billymach4]

DaveM was the big Kahuna in the Marriott forum. I remember he retired. Got into a water sport accident. But he was doing well? Dave if you are you out there give me a sign.

 

[billymach4]

Then there was another guy? He was a machinist / welder? Had his own shop. Used to post about Marsh on Marriott points. How to get the best deal on hotel stays? Can't think of his name?

 

[billymach4]

Then there was I think his name was Ron Parise? He was a big Wydham owner/renter. Always had good tips on how to rent out Wyndham.

 

[billymach4]

Steve Chase I remember. What was his handle? I remember when he passed.

He just posted today and yesterday about Wyndham.

Then there was PerryM. Steamboat Bill. They were characters. But I think they have been permanently quarantined on the outside. Their own choice or own self bad behavior.

What is his Tug name? Was looking up in members?

John Chase, Timeos2?

 

[billymach4]

Clearly his name is easier to remember

I think I remember him because he was the first one that I "knew" from his postings that later passed away. I also remember a story about his member name having something to do with the old OS2 operating system.

Just don't ask me what I had for breakfast.

 

[Passepartout]

Yeah, they come and go. You can click their blue username on an old post or in 'Members' if you remember their username. It won't tell you what happened to them, but will list their latest posting.

I think Ron sold off everything several years ago when he moved to California. Last I knew, he was out of the timeshare game, and enjoying life on his huge boat.

Wow! He dodged this covid crisis. Good move.

He actually settled with Wyndham and sold the boat.

He just posted about it yesterday and today.

Thanks. I didn't see his post. Hope he's doing okay.

I have found the Member search option doesn't always turn people up. I was wondering where another user was and couldn't find them, but later found their posts in an old thread.

Here is @puckmanfl. He hasn't been seen round these parts in almost four years!

Right. Member search not what it used to be? Thanks for finding puck. However the mystery continues. Where did he go?

 

[dioxide45]

@PerryM and @SteamboatBill are in self exile as far as I know. Had falling out with previous members. Perry tried to go his own way with his own forum back when Marriott introduced DC and it had a little traction but then petered out. Last I found was that the domain no longer existed. It is possible he is here just posting under a different username.

There was @cmh that passed away several years ago. His avatar was of John Candy.

Others come, and then go. Some stick around longer than others. Why some move on is a mystery.

I think @SueDonJ may have had more recent contact with Puck, though perhaps still years ago. Not sure. Last I heard was that life just took over.

We lost BruceCZ, the UDI King.

Another person missing is "Jennie" she was the president of timeshare group in New York state. She has not posted since 2016.
