there used to be another one, nonhackernews.com, run by mattmaroon: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=315692

that one is so far gone that the domain has expired.

so much for the splinter groups!

    did anyone ever find out if he was actually ok (out of interest - I cant see in that thread)?

      Nickb commented on an NM piece a few weeks ago. Everyone told him how happy they were, and he didn't respond to that.

      So I assume he's fine, just busy.

      Not that I'm aware of. I did go so far as to check the whois for a phone number but I have no personal knowledge of nickb so I figured it would be pretty intrusive of me to call.

      Prakash or miles would be better suited for that I think.

        Thanks.

        Yeh I spent a bit more time reading the thread and I see he is a family man and has personal friends in the NM moderators.

        Was just checking because it always worries me when young single guys [which I assumed he was, oops] drop out of communities with no noise :) now I actually have the resources to check their ok I keep my eye open for these types of things - but I missed him disappearing.
