It is with a heavy heart that I bring this news.

A long time member of this forum was found in his hanger a week ago

His name is Rich Laitla aka Pokey in this forum.

very little is known of the happenings to him, if you have any information please contact me.

 

Thank you

That's sad to hear. I always liked reading his posts on this forum.

Sorry to hear this. Why did all his posts have his name changed from "pokey" to "guest pokey"? Didn't someone on here called "guest pokey" post a bunch of really weird sh*t? Why can't you click on his handle to get to a profile like everyone else on here? This whole thing is strange.

Probably because some of his last posts were asking to be deleted from the forum. And fwiw the weird posts were from Pokey when they were posted.
