- theHM, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6For anyone searching for Albertpacino in the future, some interesting stuff i came across:
Albert's last message on the rev3 forums 30/09/05, encouraging another digger (ChicagoBob) not to quit but to use a different handle:

Anyone with pertinent information, please post.
Just fyi, at time of posting this comment, Albertpacino still has the most front page stories of any single digger. - titlesaysitall, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The Last REV3 link is down, no mirrors.
- Lostcosmos, on 10/12/2007, -1/+41. Ask questions in the forums
2. He is still here: http://digg.com/users/AlbertPacino
3. If he was creating fake accounts Krose, Owen or one of K's other minions would have booted him. - curtissthompson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yeah, I've noticed this myself, right when he hit 800 submitted stories, that very day he literally disappeared from the Internet! New accounts/websites/etc.?! To bad, we lost a good user!
- Dorke, on 11/15/2008, -0/+2i love albert pacino
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Where is this guy? His blog hasn't been updated in a while either... is he... dead?
- misterpony, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2No, it's not news, genius. It is a story from 51 days ago that I searched for and commented on just to pull it into Spy, so someone would see it and perhaps have an intelligent answer to the intial question which was asked by Scott 51 days ago, but is also now relevant because Albertpacino hasn't been seen on digg for over two weeks, and I for one happen to like and appreciate his diggs, so I wonder where he is?
- KarlSage, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Maybe he is having a drink.
- mooseman089, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Any sign of him yet?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1He was not only a great digger but a great friend. I worry for him because I haven't seen him online for almost a year.
- cheztir, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1he's around.
- misterpony, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Albertpacino seems to be off again on vacation. He hasn't posted anything in over two weeks. Where did he go? Anyone know?
- nymphetamine, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1didnt he clear that whole thing up? that other people were creating multiple accounts and just diggin all of his stories.
- chinolofus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1is albert ok?
- kevcoles, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Link's broken...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+3he's probably creating more fake accounts.
