I don't wanna be "that" guy but I think that o_e_l_e_o was here because of high pay rate and he left because of low pay rate and we lost a very amazing member because of that! o_e_l_e_o was a real asset (I know he said that he had an illness but I don't believe it, sorry but I love him, he will always be in my memory).
What a load of bullshit.
o_e_l_e_o was probably one of the most knowledgeable member of this forum. He was in chipmixer campaign for a very long time that was paying a serious money, then slowly payrate significantly decreased and soon mixers got banned and then he left. I think, he understood that pay rate would never be the same and he was such a smart and talented guy, he would do 1000x better outside of this forum.
Do you have a crystal ball or something?
You certainly differ from o_e_l_e_o in that he would never have made a similar reasoning. You think that because you just think it, it's a hunch. In his case he was probably the most rational guy I've ever seen on the forum and would never have expressed such an idea without good reasoning behind it.
The most reasonable thing in all likelihood in this case is to think he told the truth.
The only good thing I see in what you express is that you have such a good idea about him that you refuse to think he is going to die, if he hasn't already, but that is the fate that awaits us all, better to get the idea.
