i would like to add to this, that while i appreciate joes privacy. so far this thread is very respectable of his privacy. we are only mentioning his first name and no other personal info like address or recent photo or something like this. as i mentioned in my previous posts, someone wanting to have his last known address, phone, email, etc. can contact me or kod personally for a private message, for the very reason of not flaunting his personal details on the web for everyone to see. although, even this is kind of silly since the internet allows you to get these details in other ways for anyone who knows his dob and full name. so go figure. but i would say that its fairly ethical to discuss about the whereabouts of joe the friend. considering joe originally built a website bearing his name and was a mini-celebrity of sorts while running the site for all those years in late 90s, early 2000s and attending beyond that; i think what we are doing is pretty much ok. we can always have this thread or the whole forums destroyed if joe returns and wishes such to occur. im 100% fine with that, and in many ways, it would be his right to do so, im not sure about whether other people on the site would agree with that decision, though.Hellboy wrote: If I were Joe I would probably want my privacy respected and not have some internet schmoes instigating search parties to find me

dude... theres nothing wrong with what he was and what he did, in fact some aspects of him are great. just because he didnt do any supermodels in 2011 doesnt make me disrespect or insult him in any way whatsoever. clear?
btw, you are just too c u t e -- people of the internet. i think one of the biggest problems in this world are multiple posts by same person of different context and capitalization of letters, cos that JUST FEELS LIKE SOMEONES SHOUTIN AT YA, DONT IT? 
i mean i understood the capital thing kinda in the 90s when people who had been accustomed to readin books and somehow had that caps thing engraved in their minds due to books, but for kids of today to find it annoying is something beyond me. i think its just one of those opinions that people dont really have in general but most who say they have it, have just monkey copied it from someone else that they heard getting mad bout the same thing. and yet ive never found anyone except a few hipsters to criticize the use of boring fonts like arial or times new roman etc. with the same level of outrage. so its just those points from a very narrow and unimaginative perspective that ppl usually target on. anthropologist would have multiple orgasms over this shit, i know it. 
) of your mind, like "hows that gonna benefit me?")... so my point it that joe lacked that thinking and made the world a better place, but it ended up hurting him. in more ways than one. like joe did not become a millionaire when he could easily have become one at points in his life (possibly multiple points of time). kinda makes u think. i mean some might think about his contribution to society or humanity in the form of this website as a crackpot joke, but i think theres real value in it. when you think about, its huge! thanks joe. 
the lesson here is to always aim for the one up boxes in life. some ppl have kids to create one ups, joe did this site.
