Indeed, hopefully he is just swamped with work.

Does the Christmas bulbz on top of the SyntaxBomb site signal that he's OK, or do they come on automatically on a certain date?

It's automatic. Which is slightly worrying.

Even at my worst, I was still at least logging into SoCoder.
If he isn't logging in at all, that's probably not a good sign.
Does anyone know where in the world he lives?

I recall him mentioning him and his other half live over in Northern Ireland, sure he'll be fine, probably work related, busy bee and all that.

Kinda reminds me of a cutesy small town book I was reading once.

The pastor and his family had gone out of town with no notice for a family emergency. A week later when they came back, they had found that the townspeople had decided they had suffered a terrible accident somewhere and had a funeral for the Pastor and his family, buried empty caskets in the church cemetery and had wonderful looking headstones made and placed on the graves. They had also emptied the Pastor's house and sold all of the belongings and hired a new Pastor to take his place and the new Pastor and his family were now living in the house and pastoring the church.

Nothing but respect for Qube and hope he is fine, and am sure he is, but he has made some disappearances over the years when work/family were busy. I guess with Covid, people are a little more worried?

Oh no. That's not good.
I was browsing the "Qube is silent" (iirc) thread earlier today, and contemplating chipping in, but didn't feel it would help matters.
The last few times I wasn't available for hospital reasons, I made certain I was still able to, at the very least, browse the site.
Even if not in the mindset to interact, keeping my profile active is as simple as clicking the site.
In Qube's case, I don't think he's even been logging in, and .. quite frankly that worries the shit out of me.

Especially at Xmas.

I really am worried, and this is kinda disheartening.
I do hope he's still with us.

*thoughts and wellwishes*

For the sake of keeping the community together, I'll do what I did when CodersWorkshop's abrupt closure happened.

Of course everyone is welcome here, but there's an Anti-Jay vibe, so that probably won't happen.. If anyone IS trying to log in/register here, but the emailer's still being dodgy (which it shouldn't be, but.. *bah*) email me at Jayenkai@gmail.com and I'll get you logged in and set up, and send you the "We Love Jayenkai" t-shirt.

If anyone has set up a temporary replacement that we can direct people to, you can post that here, but don't go frickin' crazy. One or two, max. Splintering the community is the last thing we want.

There was mention of a Discord (was that you, TheRevillsGames? I can't remember. ) so if we could link to that, too, that'd be handy (as much as I distrust Discord, and its lack of information retention.)

And, of course, if anyone has any information on Qube, do, do please let us know.

Applauds the gesture by Jay. But will also be bowing out, as Socoder will stop being Socoder. Peace and Love to all...

Yeah I'm on Discord now ( https://discord.com/channels/613699895139762176/613699895139762178 ) talking with Ron... apparently someone saw Qube on SB today... maybe he did an update and broke something :?

SoCoder was created because CodersWorkshop disappeared.
It being here for a community in need is exactly the reason it exists.

It won't stop being SoCoder.
It IS SoCoder.

If it's true that Qube appeared, then perhaps it's a good sign.
Maybe he's been secretly working on a complete refit of SB, and we've all been worried over nothing.
