RL emergency, Ishtharo missing, please help

If ANYONE has seen or heard from Istharo, B4ckst4ber login, in the last two days, PLEASE let me know. He has vanished under very concerning circumstances and we NEED to make sure he's ok. Please, please if you see him log in either here or in game let me know. Thank you.

Are you in contact with Ebok? The two know each other if I remember right.

I know Ebok RL too, just saw him today. He aint heard nothin either

I know this is out of the ordinary, but his wife is freakin out hard core, so if its even possible, could a dm check and send me a pm with his last login times for the server and/or the forum? Prolly not SOP, but these are extenuating circumstances

Sent.

Howland, we owe ya. Thanks bud.

So is ishataro alright? Im concerned to.

We dont know. Evidence suggests he's alive, just... its complicated. Suffice to say we're looking, hard. My original request stands.

I think (I'm -not- sure) 2 days ago, I saw him log on in the morning.

Any chance we can get a little more info about whats happening, or is it private? I hate when bad news surfaces. :(

I spoke to him the other day on Wednesday June 9th on IRC, around 7PMish Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5). I was having a bad electrical storm, which fried my modem while I was talking to him.

I hope everything is alright!

EDIT: I should note, at the time I was speaking to him, he was playing EfU with his recently approved Application PC.

Sadly I've never bumped into the person in question, but I honestly wish you and your friends/family the best in finding him.

Maybe he just got drunk and has a hangover and is sleeping it off? *wishful thinking*

Seriously, all the luck in the world to you right now!

Thanks a bunch for the info guys. We're starting to paint something of a picture. Still about 3/4 of it missing, but we're getting an idea. We've determined he is alive, so no worries there. We're about 85% certain he's healthy and ok. We just cant figure out why we cant get ahold of him. As I said, its complicated, and I'd like to share the whole story with all of you, I know he's your friend too and your concerned, but it really is a family matter. Suffice to say, the quality of more than one life is at stake. We'll figure it out but the more info I get from you guys the better.

If anyone sees him on IRC, here, or in-game, please tell him to call Mitch IMMEDIATELY. Thanks again everyone.

Im here guys >.>

Im in the US army and got thrown into a field exercise right after I spoke with Meldread on IRC. It lasted until an hour ago.

In my rush to pack my things, I forgot to take my phone.

Glad to see others care, im fine. You will all see me IG, ya cant miss my dude.

If I can make a suggestion, I'd recomend having everything, or most things, that you may need for field exercises and the like (such as your phone) packed up and ready to go in a minute or so. This way, when something like that happens, you shouldn't have much of a problem with this again.

I'm just making a suggestion, but if it's not possible, all right.

To get ready for a field exercise, your unit will give you traditionally a few day to a week to pack and prepare. I had an hour and a half to be there with a 20 minute drive on the way.

Having everything packed and ready to go ahead of time when I had no idea i was going, is not practicle nor would most people do such.

Ill just make sure I have my fire extinguisher primed and ready for the next time my kitchen blows up.

I know you meant no disrespect, but youv hit a nerve. When you join the army and deal what I deal with, you are then allowed to make such comments, and until then dont reply.

RDF, cool, whats your deployment paramiters? I was in two RDF's one was anywhere on the globe in less than 24 hours and the other was anyplace on NATO 35 in less than 2 minutes.

Anywhere in 36 hours.

He's right, an hour and a half to prep for a field excercise is rediculous. I'm infantry, the biggest bullsh*t MOS there is (especially in the 82nd Airborne) and even we get a day or two minimum warning. Hence the panic when no one could reach him alluvasudden, that just doesnt happen. So, thanks to everyone for their help, really touching how much the community cares. Later.

Yay!

Without 11-B there wouldn't be an army.

Wow. You worried me to death, and I didn't read at all until right now :/

I don't really have anything to say about this hoo-rah army guys can do no wrong stuff, but I'm glad you're not dead.

Hoo-tah is marine, Hooah is army.

You know what marine stands for right? My Ass Really Is Navy Equipment

You know why enlisted marine/navy wear their names on their ass? So the officers know who to promote.

Hasnt been a good week, my sarcasm is off the charts.

Btw, im force protection, love my job.

Just don't go to Iraq.

He isn't going anywhere, anytime soon. And even if he were, its not like he has a say in the matter.

Also, since this situation is resolved, could a DM lock this?
