Maru has left the forum
 

Sadly Maru decided to leave.
She asked to be permabanned but as that wasn't forthcoming she changed her password to a random key smash and put in a fake email address.
I'm sorry we've lost a thoughtful and kind member, she will be missed.
I'm in touch with her via email so if anybody wants to pass a message let me know.

Aww that's so sad to hear :( I hope everything is okay with her, she always seemed lovely and I'm gutted we never got to talk properly :hug:

Omg why :(

:omgno:

What did I miss whilst I was banned? Has something gone down?

She's fine. She said she met some lovely people here, but she was not happy with bad blood and fighting that happens all too often. I guess she's had enough.

Aw no that's really sad. She's lovely, always appreciated her Ayumi sets.

She'll be missed. Hopefully in time she will return x

She left few days ago. Don't think she wanted any fuss. But today I noticed TS putting her forward for admin and I thought I'd better let you know guys she's gone and not coming back.

This is sad news but not surprised at all ! the sniping and bickering is bad , all the good people have left and they are missed.

That’s sad to hear, she was such a nice member of this forum

Maru was lovely...full of wisdom and decency. I'm not surprised sadly.

Marsh’s fault http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...97_306x409.jpg

I'm still here you know!:nono::joker:

I'll try to be serious for a second, it's sad to lose a member like Maru as she always offered a balanced post and she was always nice to me personally so I never had an issue with her, I hope that she comes back.

For some reason I always thought that Maru was a guy though.:joker:

Can we not apportion the blame, LT?
I think we're all responsible for the tone of the forum
All this tit for tat is precisely why she left

Didn’t talk to her too much, but I always liked her being around too.

I bet your maru :nono:

yes, and RileyH and arista and Alf :joker:
how did you know? :omgno:

Well who the hell would be mad enough to give you there email address :laugh:

don't want yours so chillax :hee:

Oh no :(

I really liked Maru, she always brought a calming presence into the forum, and was always very kind and thoughtful to everyone...

She will be missed :(

Why don't people just stop going on the site if they don't like it? The whole thing with the password sounds a bit attention seeking tbh.

To be fair it can’t really be attention seeking if she’s not here to receive the attention.

Coming on here is a routine for many and like everything else can become habitual. If she recognised that it was toxic for her changing the password/email to something she couldn’t crack stops her from slipping back into said habit.

It’s not like Maru is here announcing her departure, we’re being told by Twosugars after the fact.

Thank you, Scoot. Well put.

Well she sure got a lot of attention from the OP and all of the comments that she's probably reading. :joker: You can still read almost everything without logging in.

She doesn't even know I posted this.

What's your problem huh?
A valued member left quietly, I thought some fms would like to know she left.
But you waltz in with your ridiculous comments.
