One of our friends left SL mysteriously.. and left others worried and concerned. She ended up contacting me out of SL, finding my e-mail address and letting me know her situation. I was able to pass on the message that she wasn't planning on logging in again. At that point the worry did turn into a grieving process. Because we knew the situation, however, it made it easier to heal. Those that leave without saying goodbye (as it were), is very much akin to discovering that an AFK friend moved mysteriously in the night with no forwarding address. You don't know what to think, other than your relationship is no more. I agree.
