    I was just going over my friends list, and I found a friend who hasn't logged in for almost a year, and whose tagline makes me suspect she took her own life.

    I am very concerned for some of our members, and I want to see everyone come through...

    Mostly this is just my curiosity, so I thought I would ask. Has Empty Closets developed a welfare checking process, and if so, has the staff ever had to use it?

    This is a good idea.

    Yes, maybe some sort of filter for keywords about suicide would be very useful.
