Matthew Loraditch, a page in the 2001-2002 class and president of the Page Alumni Association, told ABC News that pages were warned 5 years ago about Foley.
Interestingly, Loraditch is also the creator and administrator of the now-offline Page Alumni Forum.
I found this in the Google cache of the Page Alumni Forum, which mentions Matthew Loraditch and Jordan Edmond as officers in the HPAA.
One conversation on the cached forum pages, Loraditch (who goes by the screen name of "loraditchm") caught my attention:

I have it figured out... no need to worry! He was going to say something about me having a fine lady. I suspect he is jealous.

fyi in my second post, the he's is me talking about myself in the 3rd person, and yes i know i'm weird and annoying
edit: in further contemplating the various meanings of the written word, i would clarify that the point of what i was saying is that i might not be jealous b/c well my love life might not be as bad as arthur thinks,
now does it all make sense?
==============================================
So I went with my first instinct at reading loraditchm's cryptic comment, and I did another Google search - this time searching on "loraditchm"+"gay" and OMG, did I get a surprise!
Because of the links to the several offcolor "Livejournal" pages, I wanted to see if I could find a profile page for "loraditchm" on a Livejournal page, so I did a Google on "loraditchm"+"profile", and came up with even more gross stuff.
Matthew Loraditch and Jordan Edmond were pals, and co-officers in the Page Alumni Association.
Matthew Loraditch says that pages were warned about Foley being a pervert.
Did anyone warn the pages about the types of things that Loraditch was interested in???
Loraditch and Edmond are supposedly good, conservative Republican kids, so how that squares with the stuff I found tonight - I just don't know.
