Concerning Inigo Montoya

I have heard from him this morning. He is alive and as well as can be expected under the circumstances. He will not be returning to the board, at least short-term, though the door is open in the future.

He has given me permission to handle this situation as I see fit, but at the same time, I wish to preserve his privacy as much as possible for his sake and his family.

What you need to know: He has an serious illness and will need medical attention. However, he does not have a brain tumor.

He was not jerking your collective chains yesterday and this was not a desire to hurt you or to gain undeserved sympathy; he was acting out of illness. I think it could be fairly said he was, in that moment, not totally responsible for his actions.

At the least, he’ll be on sabbatical.

He is grateful for all of you that cared enough to speak up and reach out, and he is very embarrassed for what’s happened. I ask all of you to be considerate of Inigo Montoya during what is undoubtedly a difficult time.

I, for one, wish him well and hope he does eventually return. I’ve always found his posts worth reading. Inigo, take care, and please do return when you feel able. :slight_smile:

Color me nothing but relieved, and wishing **Inigo ** all the luck in getting better.

I’ve always enjoyed his posts as well…good thoughts and well wishes being sent your way, Inigo.

If Inigo decides not to return, I hope he’ll consider piracy. I think he’d make an excellent Dread Pirate Roberts.

We’re thinking good thoughts, Inigo.

I must also join in sending Inigo good thoughts - I’ve been worried since the original post last night.

And as an aside, a tip of the hat the moderators for their prompt attention and update - you’re all good people.

Inigo Montoya, you received quite a jolt, so it’s not so unusual that a first reaction would be kind of over the top. I’m sending good vibes your way and will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Please come back when you feel up to it and let us know how you’re doing.

TubaDiva thanks for the update.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Inigo. Take care.

Adding to the expressions of relief and best wishes. Take care, Inigo, and we hope to have you back as soon as the time is right.

All the best, Inigo. Thank you, TubaDiva.

I hope he at least reads this at some point. I’d like to apologize for drawing the wrong conclusion from his second post last night. I’m sorry.

Best of luck, Inigo. Come on back now, y’hear?

Thank you, Tuba Diva, I’m much relieved.
Inigo, don’t be embarrassed. We’ll miss you while you’re gone. Heal and be well.

Glad to hear you are still with Inigo Montoya. I hope you get better and return when you can.
Thanks Tubadiva. This board has a great community.

Whatever your problems are, {{{Inigo}}}

I’m glad to hear that he is still with us, and sorry to hear that he truly is ill. I hope treatment works well and soon, so he can get back to posting.

Thanks for the update.

Best wishes, Inigo.

Inigo, I hope that whatever your problems, you’ll get all the help you need; in the meantime, my thoughts and prayers will be with you.

Take care of yourself, Inigo.

Good thoughts headed your way, Inigo. Remember, you can’t quit till you find the six-fingered man. We’ll miss you here lots.
