    I wonder if this thread will get locked or be put on unbumpable status.

    Stick to the topic! Haha.

    Pretty sure the moral code of passing on someone else's contact info is to make sure beforehand that it's OK to do so.
    Hence the hint that this thread should be stopped.
    A random OP asking the forum to help contact a random person who they share no personal friends with?
    WTF?
    Hence the mention of the so-called moral code.

    Though sometimes I don't get the point of locking certain threads, it's pretty much the Mods' call...unless someone is so bothered to have it stopped as to report or request it.

    I really didn't see weirdness in either the initial post or the follow-up one. Just someone trying to locate a friend.
    Fuck...
    We are becoming facebook.
    Mic drop...

    +1. I don't either. Someone was trying to track someone else down. No need to lock. Nobody is a creeper. It wasn't requested to sticky this thread either.

    I've had people reach out to me to see how Tree/Whispering Hands is doing. I didn't find that creeperish at all. She thought it was rather thoughtful and it touched her heart.

    Good luck tracking her down, Dcelani.

    I would hate if people put my full name out on a platform that can be read by anyone. I wish you good luck and hope your intentions are good, but I think putting the full name out was not needed.

    Most of us are on FB forums, no? Our names are out there and I embrace that.It's nice to put a screen name with a real name, :-).

    the op has 2 posts.

    the argument can be made that they possibly signed up just to find this person. i hope they do.

    If mods wanna close this they can, I welcomed funny creep comments, not serious ones. It's not in anyway an attempt to get personal information about her, no one has to give me anything, merely asked if anyone knew her and that I wanted to reconnect with an old friend. I have no way of getting in touch with, I live states away and I haven't spoken to her since avocado days, and it is impossible to fb a name like that from 5 states away. I don't even know if Bauer is still her last name, she's 30 something and probably married. So if this bothers anyone I apologize I meant nothing more than to reach out to an old pj friend of mine, from a cherished time in my life when pj was my only obsession and I had no responsibility but to fund tours. So with that said if anyone knows her and wants to pass it along that someone named Celani was asking about her then I'd be fine with just that. If she wants to she can dm me or Facebook me I am much easier to find. I only have 2 post cause I stopped my membership after being shut out of "lottery shows" after 13 years, probably my fault I went for the good seats everytime, thanks.

    Again with pushing this? Not getting it.

    Dcelani, there is/was a member from the old boards as well as this one with whom I've lost touch and haven't been able to find. She was a dear part of my life when it began to change for the better.

    Best of luck (and great attitude).

    Good point Hedo!
    I reverse my position and thought and hope this thread gets bumped for all eternity until the OP finds his friend.

    Thank you, there's been pj friends of my past who I have lost touch with, but can easily rekindle with, but she remains a mystery I would be happy with just knowing she was still alive and doing well. If I never get in touch with you...fuck you Katie for going to Irving plaza show.

    I'm not looking to get this locked (and Kat, Sea, please don't give into the manufactured BS)...so I'll just say, please knock off that condescending P-A nonsense.

    You don't need to use your real name on FB. And I left the big PJ group on there because it was dreadful.

    OP, there are different ways to spell the first name. Have you tried searching different spellings?

    the paranoia in this society is staggering. a name is a name. there's probably 3500 Kate Bauers in each state alone. today's internet is yesterday's white pages. putting this person's name "out there" means zero. it's not like he put her social security number or her address out there. there is nothing creepy about this, I have lost touch with people that we have no other friends in common, so I get it, and I hope you find your friend.

    Someone with the same name as me lives on the same block as me a few avenues over. There one single digit difference in our addresses. Same apartment number too. It's been a while since I've gotten her mail so I think she may have moved lol. My point being we are not as unique as we'd like to think :innocent:

    Yeah it's stupid.
    I hope 10c starts to crack down on forum users with fake names.
    Our real names should be attached to every post that is made.

    No, seriously.
    Everyone seems to want the facebook esque feel to this forum.
    Otherwise this thread http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/228773/post-a-pic-or-gif-to-show-how-you-feel-about-the-new-forum#latest would've not have been loc-lited.
