@christosthegreek was a fantastic contributor. I miss his posts. I hope he returns. I am now "following" @shellyduncan and @cryptoandzen because of your post here. People can leave the forum for any number of reasons. I came to it as a source of information about cryptocurrencies and stayed for the virtual interaction. I think it has great potential - and it is far superior to fakebook. Steemit will survive :) and maybe draw them back.
