In World of Warcraft we suddenly had a member of a guild, known to us only through the game suddenly disappear. Lani eventually got worried enough to say something and of course once she brought it up everybody quickly worked themselves into a state of assuming the worst (WoW also once caused me to decide something horrible had happened to Lani but some of you alread know that story).
It was quite a research challenge to track him down based solely on minimal conversational clues but eventually we did. Turned out his computer had melted down and he didn't think anybody'd care enough to find a way to let anybody know.
And I do remember the work we did to track down our NYC members at MousePad after 9/11 (not that we had many).
