I left him a note via the portal on his guitar website a few weeks ago but heard nothing back 🤷🏽

What is the problem?
There is a slight chance he posted something political or offensive in someway out there somewhere and got blocked such that his email remains unrecognized for log in. But I don't want to assume. Bottom line is that he can NOT log in, it is not that he left the foro on purpose.
The other day I tried to log in from my phone. I usually use the Mac Mini or the iPad, remaining logged in all the time. I was turned away several times on the phone, claiming my password was wrong. Eventuallly I noticed a query asking whether I was a new user, or "just forgotten." I clicked on "just forgotten" and was immediately given access.
But yesterday I tried with the iPhone again and was denied access--no query about being forgotten.
Stephen and I have been good friends ever since we met in a San Francisco pub in 2012, when I gave him a bottle of peppercorns I had obtained in Micronesia, where I had just spent three months on a temporary US State Department gig at our Embassy. We have maintained contact since then.
Today, via E-mail, we discussed the fact that his absence on the Foro has been noticed, commented on, and speculated as to why, by some Foro members. He authorized me to post the following, which I have repeated from his E-mail messages. His absence is a function of both inability to log in and his desire for a bit of a break.
BEGIN E-MAIL BELOW:
Bill,
Thank you for the offer to clarify my situation. I really had not anticipated anyone noticing I was not in attendance, I’m happy to know my posts are of interest. I had no intention of leaving, quite the opposite, I was enjoying the banter and the opportunity to wax on about my work as I enter my mid curmudgeonhood.
Please let it be known I actually do upon reflection care about the participants I have banter with, and that I miss my enemies perhaps on occasion more than my friends.
Also my website email is sometimes confusing from my side and it’s difficult to filter spam from real emails. I read that E. Hernandez the Alaskan bush pilot tried to contact and I must have missed the email.
For anyone that wants to contact me I am on Instagram with the screen name:
Stephen Faulk Or stephenfaulksculpture
It’s easy to send me a message or say hello on one of my posts.
END OF E-MAIL.
Bill
