Yep. I live in Dayton as well and had spoken to him, via DSLR, for several years.
Would be nice to know that it was related to the "MEMO" and not anything health related.

I really can't believe there is a health problem because it is too much of a coincidence that he broke the "Consumption based billing" story (that went national), edited his posts to lessen the impact (which included a copy of his friends email about the plan), and then stopped posting. Anyone who has been on this forum for very long knows how sensitive TW is about employees posting anything concerning the company on tech forums. Five or six years ago a female employee almost got fired for posting a Road Runner satisfaction poll here. Others can relate numerous accounts of TW disciplining employees for providing technical assistance in this forum. Many newer TW techs seem to come and post for a few weeks and then vanish.
The only logical assumption for me is that saber11 got in serious trouble because of the Pricing Model Story and agreed to close his account. Further I think if he had been fired we would have seen him posting again. |

Time Warner is likely not going to go to a pay per byte model, in fact all the trends are going in the opposite direction whether it be wireless, or wired.
Saber11 was full of it. |

join:2000-07-18 USA | reply to KickMe I tend to agree that he got into a little hot water over it.
I doubt he could have been fired though, seeing how I don't think he works for TW anymore. At least his posts elude to that.
Well, I hope he is at least doing well. |

Actually everything he said was confirmed in follow up stories I did...
And I believe the trial is still scheduled for this summer. |
