Adios, Amigos (Goodbye, Friends)

[DeletedUser]

After 5 years of Forum membership and activity, I will henceforth confine my activities to the game itself. There have been good times here and a few bad times. There are many members here I respect and like, and then there are a few that don't fit that category. Regardless, it's been mostly fun. No longer. So, I'm taking my leave here. If you wish to converse with me, I play on Arvahall (my brand new GB-only world), Mount Killmore, Sinerania (just entered VF), Vingrid, Xyr, Yorkton, Angkor and Birka. I won't be back to see any replies here (or if this thread will even be allowed to exist.) Take care of yourselves.

Sad to see you go, wish you the best SL......
im considering it but if these changes are permanant i may leave to, will still check in once in awhile though.
Not sure, im here for now tho.
ANYWAY, Goodbye SL and happy forging.

OK I know SL will not see this, but my answer is for those who (like me) will miss him and his input. I can fully understand why he needs to leave, As like anything else that can be fun and a good way to pass the time for a while. It can get "old". Times comes to move on, so we do, or it ends up becoming a chore. Some aspects of the game are like that for me at the moment so I am looking at ways to change how I play. Working through the challenges is fun though.

I also respected his ability as a Mod. He did have to delete a couple of my posts along the way. but always gave a sound reason for doing so. It is a thankless task a lot of the time, and one I would not undertake. So I admire those who do.

Farewell Mr. Longshanks..It's been an honor. Time for retirement from the forum and a healthy game play future....

 

[Iroh the Tea Maker]

thanks for your help on the forums.

 

[Captain Christian]

Thank you so much for all you did! I am very sorry if I influenced you to leave in any way!

 

[Super Catanian]

You will be missed.

General Poem:
Cheerful summertime,
An old Stephen Longshanks,
Sitting in a tree,
Sad on a sunny day.

Cheerful summertime,
He used to be a moderator,
But now no more,
Sad on a sunny day.

Cheerful summertime,
Other moderators take his place,
But we will never forget him,
Sad on a sunny day.

Sonnet:
Stephen Longshanks, you inspire me to write.
How I love the way you smell, sound and look,
Invading my mind day and through the night,
Always dreaming about the odd seabrook.

Let me compare you to a dense balloon?
You are more intense, deadly and pleasant.
Tense sun heats the heavy peaches of June,
And summertime has the medley besant.

How do I love you? Let me count the ways.
I love your Activeness and avatar.
Thinking of your Avatar fills my days.
My love for you is the drastic magyar.

Now I must away with a plastic heart,
Remember my broad words whilst we're apart,
As you are sadly no longer a moderator.

Don't be a stranger. Give us a holler every now and then.

Don't blame you, SL..these forums are full of drama. I hardly make a post now because of the "hall monitors" who have taken it upon themselves to be sarcastic Not nice to folks who make posts in them.
