Whathello Paris
 

A sad farewell... we will miss you.

I still have hopes we will meet again at a GTG in October or November.......

Perhaps not the WhatHello name, but he is still lurking.

Not sure about the lounge, but definitely on the Europe board.

Keep posting Traviata for your GTG.

WhatHello was never in the Lounge.

pariswat lives or hibernates!

What happened?

They quit. Announced it on a thread over in Forum Help section.

I have enjoyed Whathello's posts. He can get lively, yes, but he is a wealth of information. I had the pleasure of meeting him in person too. He is lovely.

Another sad loss to this forum.

Pariswat; What about our GTG next May/June??

Hopefully people planning GTG have exchanged emails? Or Facebook or something?

Is Woinparis still an active account? Is Pariswat still alive?

<Is Pariswat still alive?> Yes.

On Fodor's, there <b> is </b> life after death.

This guy resurrects himself all the time.

You get the idea.

Agree with Leely. It is mad.

I agree with Leely2. The worst example of troll behavior I have ever experienced on a board. I can't believe it was tolerated here. I pity the poor folks who are entertained by this behavior. Life has to be pretty dull to find his narcissism tolerable.

I have always had decent back and forth with him.

I hope you will come back, Whathello - under whatever name!

He was fun but often posted nonsense. I don't mean stuff that I disagreed with, I mean stuff that was probably meant to be funny but didn't make much sense. Too bad, though. Have a feeling he's a great guy to get a beer with.

Don't really agree with his reasoning, though. If you don't want to post about travel, why post on fodors? I actually like the travel only rule. The off topic subforums of other travel are generally stupid game threads or politics or oversharing personal life stuff. No value in it.

And his thing about moronic posts...well, stupidity is not limited to fodors, sadly. Nor is it limited to the virtual world. The novel I picked up last weekend is a sad testament to that fact...I'd like to think the author was a monkey but that's probably an insult to monkeys. No doubt they write better than that.
