    Theres no problem re refusing to post Albus's photo

    as fraudsters avatars could use it to con people - what evil-unskillful people they are.

    Shocking

    And so folks, please update yourselves on antifraud measures, any advice given c/o SCOPE, you bank, by the police etc.,

    and so protect your hearts.

    Self compassion is very vey important, is not selfish.

    I only know Albus from the Scope boards, but he made such a big impact and was a big presence to anyone he spoke to.

    I remember him setting up posts about certain World Animal Days where we could post our cat photos. Or I would see him giving advice about where to go when having benefit problems, or comfort someone who was upset, because the government was having one of their fits again.

    Yes …. to me, he was a voice/text on a screen …. but he was a very important, compassionate, loving voice, and the person behind it as well, of course.

    Not to mention (sorry, with my Dyspraxic mind comes an intense introvert nerdy thinking): he carries the first name of the greatest wizard of all time (Albus Dumbledore).

    He is safe and whole again in the afterlife, but he is extremely missed here on Earth.

    I've just returned after requesting to have my account closed back in April and I just wanted to say Seeing this is dreadful. I got on extremely well with Albus and he understood me well, we interacted regularly during my previous time on the forum and I thought a lot of him. It's been an awful year and Ironically I returned as I missed a few people and wanted to see them again so to speak and Albus was one of those I was looking forward to catching up with.

    thoughts are with his family and closest associates, I apologise for bringing this sad thread back to the front of the forum but I couldn't allow the chance to say goodbye and show my respect go by.

    Dear Nightcity,

    There is no need to say sorry.

    Albus was a special, very kind man.

    I hope for those who may be thinking or felling cynical, Albus reminds us there is such a thing as great compassion.

    I had noted Albus has not been on the PIP subforum for a while and only found out today of his passing. I am shocked. I have not been here long but knew Albus from trying to help members with PIP issues within the PIP subforum. Albus was always on the PIP subforum helping members with PIP issues too. He will be sadly missed and was a genuinely nice person, that was easily noticeable in his help he gave. Very sad news.

    very tragic news 😔 Albus was a huge part of this forum. He was compassionate, kind hearted, genuine and thoughtful. He will be missed by many people, he was very supportive and gave information that was helpful and relevant. ❤️
