Probably the best thing to do is to avoid messages that are directed at one person, such as why don't you post more, or you misunderstood me, stupid, or explain yourself. They are uninteresting to others, and always off topic (Hawaii, Puna).
If someone wants to fade away or adopt a new pseudonym there may be very good reasons for it. Some may not want employers to see what they have written. Some may not want others to see what they have written. Some may just want to put some limits on their online obsession. Whatever the reason, they should just be allowed to go their way. And no one should be stalked or challenged here. If we don't self-police, you will end up with a forum where all we can talk about are manta rays and good deals on airline tickets.
Restrain yourself, lest we be restrained. No comments should be directed at another person.
And no stalking, you know, unless it's that positive kind of stalking that says please let me sleep on your lanai.
