Firstly - Floyd, I'll miss ya.  You never pissed me off, I always thought of you as a pleasant diversion, and worthy of taking time to post with - sometimes to joke with, sometimes to joke about, sometimes to entertain myself at your expense.

Never pissed me off though.

You'll know your self-image has developed in a healthy way when you can laugh at yourself, care JUST enough that you actually DID piss people off that you'd apologize instead of running away, and learn to love dealing with others no matter the subject.     Just a tip, is all.


Secondly, this IS funny as all get out, if you can look at it objectively  ;D

I think I have more posts than anyone else here, and you never pissed me off either (that is a very short list of people, you aren't on it).

Take a break, come back later. I have done that in the past.

Heck maybe I'll do it again for a while now.

Yeah! I hate when people do these kind of threads. If they really wanted to leave, they would have just left, not make a thread about it! Just stay, you know you are going to.

Just don't make threads late at night while your drunk.  :P

Just curious. Most people just stop coming to a forum. They don't really make a public announcement.

It doesn't seem to me like you actually pissed anybody off, sure not everyone agreed with you.  But I seriously doubt anyone on the board  was actually angry with you.
Just curious. Most people just stop coming to a forum. They don't really make a public announcement.
I find that strange as well, why would you leave a post saying your leaving, unless it was filled with F bombs and telling people here what they can go do to themselves?

But hey I'll see all you folks later, I've got to go to the bathroom now.

Honestly he made a pretty good job of making himself look like an ass before he ever created this thread. But hey, at least he gave us a chance to get one last cheap shot in on him before he fades away into obscurity.

HA! yeah, the whiny ones always make threads to see if anyone will say "OMG NO PLEASE STAY". If they wanted to leave, they would leave. Period. I was trying to be nice, since people think I'm some kind of butthole, but this is sad, the more I think about it, it's really sad.

To whoever said "I'm going to keep posting here, I might make a thread to that effect"

I couldn't stop laughing, thanks.
