Mortimer, where in the world did you go?

Question

Hi Mortimer: If you read this thread I really want you to think about it seriously and get back to us.

People lose their love ones everyday, but they have a sense of closure because they know what happened to them. Se sienten conformes porque saben cual ha sido su paradero final.

But there's nothing worse than not knowing what happened to someone you love. when they suddenly vanish into thin air, sin dejar ni siquiera la más mínima pista.

It broke my heart to see the girls yesterday wondering where you were.

We all care about you and we need you back. Please try to let us know at least that you are alright.

Además, nesitamos alguien que nos haga reir de vez en cuando y tu eres el más cómico por aquí.

Te esperamos Mortimer...hasta pronto amigo.

It truly warms my heart that all of you display such caring...how remarkable! You make me proud to be a part of such a wonderful community. - aloshek, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 1

I was here all the time. Thank you everybody for your concern- it feels like I have been at my own funeral. I wouldn't have done this if I had realised that it was a little rude to just disappear.

What happened was...... I was working really hard to get 4000 points as I saw that when you get 4000 points you get a reduced advertising rate. Well, we all like a bargain but the problem was, when I got the 4000 points, I couldn't think of anything I wanted to advertise. Then, someone posted a complaint about "3 juggling red balls" all over their screen and I thought, I can't come up with a better advert than that, so why do I need the 4000 points? I thought then that I would start again and see if anyone noticed - my humor hasn't changed!

Sorry if I worried some of you. Please be nice to me as I am now a "newbie" again.

I'll change my name back as soon as I find out how to do it.

Yea!!! - aloshek, Nov 24, 2009

I didn't think you got a reduced rate for adverts - I read it as you got to see less of the annoying adverts while you were on the site. So would that mean you want your points back? ( Nice to know you're OK ) - sheila-foster, Nov 24, 2009

Thanks Sheila. No, I'll have to earn them back! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Yeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiii Francis!!! - 0068e2f4, Nov 24, 2009

Robertico, the site will crash with all the points you are getting! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

I know, I've never got so many hits on a thread, when are you leaving again Francis? jejeje - 0068e2f4, Nov 24, 2009

Darn juggling balls!!! I should've shot them with MY air gun!!! - 0068e2f4, Nov 24, 2009

Yayyyy!!! Mort, you were missed! - Goyo, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 2

And now that we have expressed our relief and joy, I think we should give Morti a little smack for frightening us all!

POW!!! (smacks upside the head) Awww... (gives hug because he feels sorry) Here you go (hands cerveza over, sits back, and begins to reminisce) SMACK!!! (slaps Morti's hand for trying to be greedy with the cervezas) jaja =) - DJ_Huero, Nov 24, 2009

Jejeje ;)) You bring the beer, I'll bring the whip ;)) - Issabela, Nov 25, 2009

Thanks Kaitlyn - just gave you a vote!! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 4

I've already written to Heidi, so I guess that she would know if that was the case. But I think that our e-mail addresses are somewhere in the database, so maybe someone could let him know that he's really missed.

Thanks - I'll let Heidi know that I resurrected myself. - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Good to have you back ;)) - Issabela, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 7

Robertico:

Didn't you have a problem where your account was deleted by some computer glitch and then you signed back on as a new person as "Robertico"?

Maybe that's what happened to Mortimer??

Thank you Marianne for your consideration. - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

jeje, Roberto not a computer glitch, he wanted to make us suffer! grrrrr, jeje - 00494d19, Nov 24, 2009

No, nooo woajiaorobert got drafted into the Chinese Army, it wasn't my fault. - 0068e2f4, Nov 24, 2009

jejejejejej - 00494d19, Nov 24, 2009

Nothing you can do about that...service to the motherland is compulsory after all - Izanoni1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 8

I found out that he's missing two days ago. I noticed some strange numbers instead of his nickname, and the SpanishDict search cannot find the user. I really enjoyed his wonderful sense of humour, his brilliang comments, and everything... I hope he'll get back!

Thanks Issabela. In terms of wit, you are way beyond me - and on top of that you are really romantic as well! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Way beyond you?? And I've always thought that I was way ahead :-P - Issabela, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 9

I have been really busy this week and I really miss spending time with all of my Spanish learning buddies here. But the one thing that did not escape my attention was the fact that our favorite funny guy Mortiwas missing. (I was tempted to try all caps, but knew I would get in trouble for "shouting".)

Anyway, if you were ever wondering if you mattered in this world, if there was ever a thought that you had no real purpose in life, you can put that to rest right now. We need you here. You always make us laugh and help us learn. Sorry that you lost your 4,000 points, but I will do my part to help you re-earn them.

So what am I supposed to call you now Morti...? Apparently, I will have to go with "Marti".

Well I would like to welcome you to the forum Marti! There are plenty of people here to help you with your Spanish questions. I would just like to ask that you use proper spelling, grammar and punctuation at all times!!

It's great to have you back!!! Nicole

Welcome back yourself Nicole. - Seitheach, Nov 24, 2009

Thanks Nicole!!!!!!! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

De nada Marti; Gracias Phil!! - Nicole-B, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 10

Now, mortimer, letmetellya!!!

I wrote like a dozen PMs today asking if anybody knew what happened to you!! Issa told me and I asked around...and Roberto too and he then decided to post!

We are very happy to have both of you back ...roberto and you!

Sorry.....for all the trouble I put you to. I just couldn't htink of any new captions for the photos! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 11

Yipee! He's back!

Thank you Marianne - I won't do it again! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 12

Yes, I can't find anything from him since the 22nd - but in that post he seems his normal helpful cheerful self.

I do hope it's just a computer glitch - maybe one of the admins could check?

Thanks Sheila you are really sweet! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 13

Come back, Mortimer! We miss you!

What can I say? Sorry? I am not normally mischievous like this. - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009

Answer 14

Dang you Mortimer! Good to have you back. Now I gotta get busy voting you back up.

Thanks a million!! - 00f2b5a1, Nov 24, 2009
