I was wondering if anyone has seen or heard from Rodie lately. I have not heard from him since mid january. The last i heard, he was having computer problems, and he had been really sick. I would imagine that he would have figured out a way to get on the internet by now. So i really really hope he is OK. He is a awesome guy, and im concerned for him dissapearing like this. I have spoken to a few people that talk to him too, and they have not heard from him either. I still have his address, so if nobody can come up with anything, i will write him a letter, and hope to hear from him that way. Thanks for any insight, and once again i hope Rodie is doing good.

He texted me like 2-3 weeks ago, and from what he said he has super busy and all with everything.
I'm assuming with the gym/work.

I have noticed his last post has been the same. I have messaged him a few times since january too, with no responces. Another member text him back in january and hasnt heard from him since. Im really worried about him. I think im gonna go ahead and write a letter to him. Hopefully i will hear back he is doing just fine, but busy.

Good thing this thread was started. I loaned him a MM Nhandu coloratovillosus August of last year. He almost never answers his PMs. He can not be relied on to reply. Hasn't given me any updates. Hope all is well with him.

I have dealt alot with Roadie, and consider him a good friend, and great person. I have never had any issues with him, and wouldnt think anyone would. Im sure that there is something out of his control keeping him away. I truly doubt he would ignore you or anyone else.

Oh, Im not passing judgement on him as a person, but I just wanted to convey my own personal experience.

i hear THAT ... roadie is AWESOME... if anybody cares i just got a message from him via email... i will copy and paste it... here it is : Hey Steve,

Sorry that I have not been on AB in a few months. Been swamped with work and personal stuff. I will have a few things ready soon. P. irminia, P. cambridgei, and hopefully A. minatrax. I still have a bunch of commons available. Getting rid of my large female pokies that I have duplicates. Can't seem to get my pokies to drop sac.

I have other females that are gravid. Both of my gravid T. stirmi molted!!!!!!

Hope all is good in your neck of the woods?!? No worries, Joe Rossi told me that peeps were wondering about me. Good to know that people on there know when I am not around :)

Happy Early Birthday! Send me a wish list and if I have or can get what you want I will for sure hook you up.




Sorry if ya ever see this and are mad that i posted your reply publically roadie, just wanna ensure people that youre ok and still into the hobby... Like i said... its not the same without ya, and this hobby NEEDS ya.

Has anyone been in contact with him? I loaned him a MM pulchra at the beginning of the year, haven't heard back from him.

Makes 2 of us. As everyone knows I loaned him a MM Nhandu coloratovillosus a year ago and I havent heard from him and dont expect to either. Good Luck to you. He has no shame. I am sure there will be more people speaking up.

He has been busy with work and doesn't have anytime to go on the board as much as he use to be. Give him a break when he has time to get back on he will get back to you guys.

65 PM's it has been a while! With my phone blowing up I thought I better respond and get back on!

First let me start off by letting you all know that yes, I dropped the ball on ZMAN and did not contact him. The good news, here is the update for him and everyone to see.

His male was successful in pairing, first picture was of one of the females molting out and the next is one that is STILL holding on to her eggs! Sorry for the late news Angel, but here you go. So everyone needs to chill on the phone text's to me about ZMAN talking :poop: All is good :) It was my bad!

And Warren, my girl said she left you a message about the G. pulchra. She molted out but we paired him with Ryanw's female and she is super fat! Any luck with the, P. miranda?

Okay, it will take me a week or so to get to the PM's. Thank ZMAN for getting me back on here!

You are quite welcome Roaddog. I have much respect for you after your response. It is always good when someone owns up to their actions.

Hey guys, if anyone could give me an update on roaddog it would be super useful. I sent him a MM C.fimbriatus, and a MF - freshly molted GBB, both as part of a breeding loan (yes I sent him a female not just a male) around November. Everything was going good and he kept me up to date on what was happening and around March we were just waiting for the greenbottle blue sac to drop(fimbri male got munched and the female died :()! However I have not heard back from him since March so am a bit concerned. I had his number but lost it due to unforeseeable circumstances and was hoping someone could let me know if everything was okay with him, or if they have his email/number, let him know that I would appreciate a reply back! Not extremely concerned despite the long delay because I know roadies a stand up guy despite his sometimes extended absences still nonetheless it has been over half a year since I've heard back from him.
