I have mixed feelings about this one..
SIZECODING Lots of you know about Auld and his fantastic work, he was and still is a member of this community, he posted many fantastic topics and helped dozens and dozens of people.
I still don't completely know the reasons why, but last year he decided to go away from here for an unknown amount of time, he sent me a message to ask me to keep his account open and in that message he asked me to keep it private, and I have done.
The things I can post here are things he has publically said.
In the info for Triangle Ted Seeks a new Job he explains the difficulties that he faced at work, and how he eventually found a great new place to work where he fitted in.
In his blog he says that he left this community last year, so I will take from this that he has moved on.
My mixed emotions are because I feel sad that I finally know now that Chris won't be coming back now, and I will really miss his posts, I learned a hell of a lot from that guy, he was very kind to me.
I feel happy though that maybe he has found happiness, away from scene politics and arguments and hopefully some joy in his work.
Just on the off chance that you ever read this post Chris, I want to wish you the best of everything mate. You deserve it.
If you have a fault, you care too much.
I'd reccommend Auld's blog to anyone who is interested in the art of making small intros, it's fascinating reading.
