KeywestK Posted May 6, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I was off these boards for a few months, and have been reading them again the past month. I noticed that Host Clarea hasn't been posting. Did he give up that position? Hoping all is well with him. I hope it's okay that I posted this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeywestK Posted May 6, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Oh good for him! I hope he and his wife enjoy a long and happy life in Florida! He did a phenomenal job for the Cruise Critic community, always clear and concise with his information, and always kind. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted May 6, 2020 #5 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I looked at Bob's profile the other day and his screen name is now just Clarea. I think he officially dropped out as a CC host. His wealth of knowledge and calm demeanor is missed. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though he was on here few short yrs doubt there will be another like him... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the first thing I noticed after having not been on the boards for a while. I have been wondering where he is also. I really miss his contribution to the discussions.

There are other posters on these boards who are very knowledgeable, and I appreciate the information they provide. My original post was not intended to lessen their contributions, but was just trying to learn what happened to Clarea. He was a very special presence here, and he will be missed.

I don't know why they only seem to start dates at 2000 but it seems longer to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They deleted my account after a server change and I had to sign back up under my current name but took my time doing so as I was busy with life way back then and not cruising as often. Hence the 2003 instead of 1990 ish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
