Ok, see you in a week! ;)
later, Although im on the forums alot and i've been able to keep the social life quite healthy. But oh well later man!!Same. I always put hanging out with friends first, and I still have lots of time on the forums.
Rule 6: If you decide to publicly proclaim that you are leaving this board forever, please be sure you really mean it, because you won't be welcomed back.
From the Rules of another forum I frequent (And Necro's exempt because it was his friend and not him that announced that he was intending to leave forever.)QuoteRule 6: If you decide to publicly proclaim that you are leaving this board forever, please be sure you really mean it, because you won't be welcomed back.
Sometimes when someone announces it on their board, the members often say "I hope you don't Rule 6 yourself" meaning they hope they don't return.
So yeah. I follow that rule. So if I'm gone for a long time, I'm off to find my inner game philosophizer and will come back in a week to a month or so.
Edit: Also, I was thinking that maybe it's just him trying to get attention, which is why people usually rule 6 themselves, they're secretly reading the board hoping to get attention, and when they get enough "Come back, we'll miss you too much" they appear and go "Well, maybe I'll stay, since all of you care so much"
(Like I said before, Necro is exempt because he set specific limitations, he only told his closest friend, who then tried to get other people to sign a "Please Return" I don't think Necro was secretly reading it. I bet he was off ranting about the people that drove him nuts, or doing something else entirely)
I might leave to, not sure though.I'd rather you didn't leave 7...unless you had to for personal reasons.
GOODBYE IM LEAVING FOREVER!!!Nonsense. Sit right where you are.
Now that I have your attention I wont be leaving, but im starting to get kinda busy so i'll only be here 15 hours a day instead of my usual 20.
So yeah, the end
What? Someone tell me, what is this "social life". Does it taste good on bread?
I heard you can find girls in this social life.
I heard you can find girls in this social life.
ah! what is this "girl"? i keep finding new things today!
meh, not that great in my opinion ;D

You know where I come from if you know how to use the internet your a geek....and where is that? Everyday people now use the internet.
You know where I come from if you know how to use the internet your a geek.You think THAT'S bad? Where I come from you are a geek if you watch sci-fi!
I'm similar to Janos, forums are always less of a priority than everything else.
I'm leaving this forum. I have nothing against anybody here, I just might kill myself.
You can never really leave... you'll come back eventually, for some reason or another.
Here's something I've learnt. If you want to leave a forum, you do it like Patman did (before he came back) and not like Pilot4life. You don't know that you won't return, and if/when you do you'll look pretty dumb. Just say that you may or may not be back.You can never really leave... you'll come back eventually, for some reason or another.
Ironic, no?
For those wishing to know what happened to Necro:
(This is after his "Canadian Brethren rise against the US!" thread. He ran away to CC and the thread that made him famous)QuoteWell this offically ends it. Obviously most of the people on this forum lack any kind of intelligence, compassion or reserve. Which is ironic because those are the same qualities I am accused of not having on a regular basis. Perhaps you see in me what you hate in yourselves.
Either way, I refuse to associate myself with people who do not deserve what intelligence, compassion, and reserve I do possess. So, I'm leaving again, for good, to meet better people than yourselves. I know this is quite a joyous occation for many of you, so here's a pause so you can revel in your corrupt victory...
...
To LadyM: I hope you rise above the lies you've been taught. Think of me what you will, it doesn't matter - because you'll be wrong.
To those who dislike me: Take pride that you destroy heros. There aren't enough villans in this world.
To the few of you here who I am pleased to have known, you know who you are, and I thank you for beleiving.
And now that that is settled, I have only one thing left to say.
I'm sorry to my creatures, and whatever friends I gained here. I have failed you. I wish I had had the strength to stay in the CC, and not be tempted out by the stupidity of the masses. If I were Superman, they'd all be my kryptonites. I failed you, and now I must go.

You leave because your points are weak. Because you don't seem to understand that Canada isn't the only nation that has been involved in friendly fire incidents. Your Radically leftist news agencys are no better than America's Propaganda Filled Right Conservative New's and don't pretend otherwise. You hate Bush, well fine, so do I. It doesn't make you News networks any more unbiased just because they are in Canada and not America.
Quote
- I posted this in another thread, and was told to be silent, because it was not directly relevant to the thread. But I shall not be muted -
I'm sick of the U.S. military "accidently" bombing Canadian peace keepers, then not even appologizing. I think after the fourth time, we deserve some freakin compensation. Like Bush's head on a pike.
I am also angered by the pressure that was placed on us by the US to accept the (officially declared) faulty rocket defence program, and the ban on beef they imposed, when the cows originally came from Texas (a fact few people acknowledge). Thankfully both those issues have been resolved... for now.
Thus, if any of you, my fellow canuks, have gripes about the way we are mistreated, abused, and slaughtered by our so-called "allies" and "neighbours" to the south, this is your haven to post.
You are believing that you are somehow morally superior because your troops have been the victims of friendly fire. This is ridiculous, friendly fire incidents haven't only happened to Canada. In the first campaign in Iraq, more Americans died in friendly fire incidents than to Iraqi gunfire. Not every single soldier involved was court marshalled. You are right that America should compensate the families, but understand that America isn't some huge single entity, that can consider every action it has done. The American military automatically sends out money and letters when American soldiers die, because we have them in our records, where their families live, their earnings, everything about them. Not so with Canadian soldiers.
Accidents happen even more often when multiple countries are involved. Communication becomes more difficult since their are two different chains of command that must be worked through. An Army can't know the exact placement of everysingle soldier on the battlefield. This is more popularly known as the "Fog of War."
And don't you ****ing dare propose this is due to poor training, or that American pilots are sub par. There are more American pilots in the air than from any other nation, so the chances for an accident are much greater.
Quote
I don't want a war. I hate war. It's stupid. But we all know the US still has "manifest destiny" on the mind, and I for one will not stand by while my countymen are bombed from above by careless Americans while we try to clean up their mess.
Yes, come later and say your "cleaning up our mess" when foriegn involvement from the beginning might have lead to better policies concerning the aftermath of the initial engagement. I find it ironic that other countries say how the World War's and the Holocaust could have been avoided if we had acted sooner, then turn around and do nothing when America's fool of a president decides to pick a War that could have been shortened if another country had taken a look at America's post Saddam rebuilding strategies. I thought the War was bad from the beginning, but America and its few allies was allowed to go to War unchecked by the rest of the world.
Quote
Your beloved president himself asked for our help, so take that up with him. And now we're being betrayed and there is no remorse from anyone in your country. We mourned the loss of your people, and now you make mistakes like this mercilessly. We cannot afford to send our population into the meat grinder like you can. Four of our dead peacekeeps is like losing 40 of your soilders. You wouldn't laugh about 40 of your men dying. Be glad I;m not in a position of more power, or I would concider these betrayals an act of war against Canada. And unlike the Iraqis, we can acctually fight back.
Quote from: From earlier
I don't want a war. I hate war.
A man of contradiction. Bush would like you. I guess contradicting yourself is fine if your not American Roll Eyes .Accidents are not betrayal. If it were, America would have gone to war with itself 80 times just a month after the first ground troops were plopped onto Iraqi soil. Sheesh, Canada has been in bigger wars than this, and accidents happened then as well. And your entire arguement hinges on "Canadians are worth more than Americans" racial supremacy bull****. We aren't sending our "population to the meatgrinder." Our military is entirely volunteer, and you talk like Americans could care less at the deathtoll, despite the fervent rallies and motions to get as many soldiers as possible to return to America.
You sound like the one who is brainwashed. I am very sorry that four men died by accident. I would have much rather had no one died in Bush's pet war. I can't help if Fox news has brainwashed a crapload of people into loving Bush. it won't ease the pain of the affected families to say that "accidents happen" but it is no less true. I wish humans were perfect and never made mistakes. Never waged war. Never killed. Human lives are never cheap. Despite what you say, Necro. And you would still take out your aggression by attacking America, despite knowing that our troops are deployed elsewhere and the only thing you would have to shoot are civilians. Thank God that you are not in any power, as you would just be another Bush. It is still war, and accidents do happen. Again, I am sorry four people died.
But your still a weak little wuss of an ******* with radical ideologies that are little better than the Bush Administrations War policies. Smiley
You are made even more of an ass by singling out LadyM as your "oppressor" She was just doing her job by trying to avoid a flame war, since you couldn't be civil and degenerated into personal attacks and ridiculous remarks. And because you couldn't stand that, you run away, as if doing so would make you right.
I reccomend this thread be locked. If anyone takes offence to anything I have just written, PM me and we can discuss it in a civil manner, something Necromicon is incapable of doing.
I don't think I'm breaking any rules by doing this.
*cough*
... Damn that was a long cough
I'm leaving this forum. I have nothing against anybody here, I just might kill myself.
I'll update my Serlan sometime :D
Oh my god!I'm leaving this forum. I have nothing against anybody here, I just might kill myself.
Has anybody else noticed that Malt hasn't been active since this... his last post?
I'm going.
Going daft, specifically. Anyone want to come with me?
i going i just ran out of excuses for staying
I bid you guys adieu
I bid you guys adieu

Hey you guys, I realize that I've been a huge jerk, and, well.....I don't think that I can ever regain your respect. So I think I'll just be going.isn't this discussion over!

Ooookay, what about Malt vs Huckbuck?
Ooookay, what about Malt vs Huckbuck?
Malt is much more experienced then me on correcting people and being smart, although I think I have a better temprament then Malt. But all in all I think Malt would win, cause his fanart cut'n paste are better then mine.
Bye
Bye
EDIT: I cannot stand the hazing...
He's just 14 :( , he probably listens to every one. I sent him an email and asked him to come back. I think someone should adopt him.

Okay, I've decided to come back. I must have been a bit confused with a few things. I thought you guys were flaming me because of a mod nomination. I will now try to be less emotional. Everything Else isn't the plase for the weak hearted...I think most of it was a case of mistaken identity

Well i have to made up my mind and this time i am actualy leaving. I'm tired of people judgeing my intelligence because i am a creationist and i am tired of all the rude comments toward my beilef, it just shows you who the real ignorant ones are. I am tired of nothing being said about them and me being unable to reply. I am tired of bias moderation and i am tired of the way people treat newbies. I am tired of those who don't like me following me everywhere. I am tired of fanboys and know it alls and i am just plain tired of this forum. It used to be great when i first joined in 05. But not anymore its not a fun place to be any longer. I can find another spore forum if needed so nothings holding me here. I am tired of people who play innocent in front of the mods but not innocent to you in PMs. CoughKrakowCough. I am tired of suck ups. I am tired of it all. And besides whats the point of staying somewhere your not liked very much?.
This forum is home to many kinds of people and beliefs. But only a few are respected and treated fairly not just regarding religion (and dammit if atheism ain't a religion you guys are sure as hell trying hard to be one). World views, Goverment, Sports, And thats just the cream of the crop.
I know annouceing your leaving means nothing no matter who you are nobody cares. But i figured i would go out with a bang ang bring something to surface. I seem to be the only one that does
Later guys and gals. Enjoy spore if it ever comes out i will be :D
WhiteWolf7Uhh...who?
I am tired of people who play innocent in front of the mods but not innocent to you in PMs. CoughKrakowCough.
Creationist guy with issues and spiders on his floor that kept posting rather tedius anecdotes about his day-to-day life and has to date "Left the forums" about 50 times.
His main tactic in debates about religion was trying to imply that the people arguing against him didn't understand the Bible or theology properly.

Who was Malt?? he/she seems like a nice fellow?
i might randomly leave forever if my dad drinks a "little" and breaks my laptop like he did last time, sniff rest in pieces x box 360, Nintendo 64, game cube, wide screen tv, and my signed hockey stick worth a fortuneNothing says "Stop breaking my ****" more than a visit from the police. He might be your father but if he's shattering your expensive gear then he needs the wake-up call. Not too far from breaking a part of your body. Over-reacting? Maybe. It might be a step away, but it might be a smaller one than you think. Its a trouble to vid-cam them doing it (because thats a good way to wake them up, if you can film them doing stupid crap whilst drunk, and play it back to them when they're sober), and that'd probably just wreck the cam or provoke him more, but still.. ugh. At least make a backup of your important stuff before it happens, because by the sound of it, it will. If you ever get taken offline and it keeps up, make sure it gets seen to. This wont go away if you ignore it, so good luck. :s
Who was Malt?? he/she seems like a nice fellow?
god damn it Malt! where are you?
Malt isfamedreviled for starting and delivering the annoying "dicussion over" catchphrase, and being a wannabe elder (at least a year1/2 membership and thousand posts, and still active) forum goer. I find that strange you have not seen him.
He made me laugh a lot, but still, I'm only 13.
is any one actually leaving no so every one is off topic please people stop posting here
How old was malt? You said kid...
is any one actually leaving no so every one is off topic please people stop posting here
Why was Malt banned anyway?
Malt was an annoying kid who didn't know when to keep his mouth shut, nor how to treat other people with respect. He'd been borderline trolling the forum for a year, and finally stepped over that very thin line he'd been walking. Good riddance.
everytime a good member (I.E. Malt) leaves, this site becomes 5% uncooler.
Its a matter of interpritation anyway.
So Crazen, I suppose soon you'll be posting in here to explain your rampant disruption, bumping and drama?
You'd better be sure about leaving Crazen, because if you really bump all of your topics, there's a rather large chance you'll get banned.Ah, this explains a lot. I got a touch confused when groups of old Crazen threads were all at the top of the forum lists, locked, with the bumping message being "Quote from Malt : Discussion Over". They're all gone now, though. I was beginning to wonder if I needed more caffiene for a moment...
Very large, wish granted and discussion over.
Should we kill of your DnD character or should we leave a window open for your eventual return?
I'm not leaving. However, I am about to start my final year and so consequently I'm not going to have quite so much time, especially since I'm also taking on a number of new commitments.
Frankly, correcting the philosophical, political and personal idiocies of 15 year olds falls waaay down my priorities list*; with that in mind I think for a while I'll probably just be lurking and maybe just posting the odd thing or two, rather than posting as usual.
Have fun, everyone.
EDIT: Oh, and of course I'll still be running the Dip game, don't worry about that.**

I'm not going to be posting for a month or so, hopefully I'll be back sooner than then but if not I'll see you then. I might be on Gabbly every so often but thats about it. :(
Thanks, Unlamp
Tomorrow I leave to New York for some reconnaissance. 8) Perhaps I can pay a visit to that Nintendo World store in Rockefeller. I'll be back on Veterans day.
You should have posted in the vacation thread. Glad your back.
Met, you're a little behind. Gec is back and so is unlamp.
Or the good members are slowly replaced by other good members.
You guys won't have to miss me... :)Or the good members are slowly replaced by other good members.
Which is something you do see over the years in this forum already.
I miss Vivec... :(
And Daxx.And Samog. Can someone tell me where Samog is? Please.
I know he's just busy with school and what not but, it still sucks.
Now that you mention it I miss vivec now =(. He was a better penguin than all of us.Me too. *comforts Kratok*
hey, I remember vivec :(Yeah, he was nice. :(
Lol.You too, AW!? :o :o :o Which means I'm not teh only one?!!!eleven!!11one-hundred-one11oneone!!!111eleven!!
It involves spending more time on the computer.
I decided it may not be worth it, so Im thinking about giving it up.Wait, after all that we went through last year you're just going to leave? ??? How about you just take a break and come back later. No one really ever leaves anyway. ;)
he will be back..on day
Today will be my last day as a moderator here.

Bye, you're leaving for vacation (http://www.gamingsteve.com/blab/index.php?topic=5685.0).
What kind of service do you have?
DSL?
I am going to leave this forum. My wife said that I was getting to obsessed with getting on this forum. After a weekend of retrospection and not being on the forum I saw what she meant.
Thanks to all the people I had spirited debates with over the last two months.

He was married? And over 20?
Well I'll be...

I was going to say that I missed you but I went back and read the post where you dislike Portal...
so good riddance.
Sorry. :(
Why not take a vacation. I mean, from the forums. It does a lot of good depending on how much time you take. :)
...So what if he doesn't like a game, its called an 'Opinion', ever heard of one?

The ones who disappear without saying a word probably didn't care that much about this forum in the first place. At least not enough to say they're going to leave.

Or they don't want to cause drama. ;)
This begs the question, why are you back?Because I wub this place.
I don't know, I just don't feel like I'm motivated to be here anymore, Its not a bad site.He left on page 25 and now he has returned.
Its just that, well, I've gotta move on ;)
My life's been pretty hectic lately, so It's not very easy to deal with this.
This will probably be the last message I'll post on this site, so goodbye.
When I first joined this site, I was looking for a place to belong, to feel welcome.I still do, but I feel that in the short time that I've been here, I had an incredibly wonderful experience.
To think, I thought that this was just a Spore fansite! This site just doesn't seem as active as it once was, and it's nowhere near dead.
But, I fear I must go, and simply surf the internet once more.
TBH, I feel as if no one even cares about this, as if I'm nothing. Well, I don't really care, it's time I said goodbye; and I hope that you will remember me, maybe as that n00b who play left 4 dead, or maybe as a friend.
I don't know. But I'll say goodbye to everyone I've come to know: Yannick, Sam, darkdrag, LadyM, Steve,Xeno etc.

Because frankly that's the reason I barely post, nobody cares about my opinion, nor do people here understand me.

To be rather more specific, I was planning on being banned, because I was the sockpuppet of a banned user. :) TTT, in specific. AKA Wonderful Lizard of Oz. Bye guys.Yeah, I'm getting banned and leaving forever. Bye guys!
*has a heart attack from this shocking revelation*
Mal-who? Why aren't we allowed to discuss banned members?
Fell for what? I know this is a while back, but I cannot refrain any longer from asking this question.Mal-who? Why aren't we allowed to discuss banned members?
You fell for it. :P
Plus, playing the pity party or what ever would feel like jumping on the band wagon of Andrew Ryan is gone, miss him miss him miss him.I was first so I don't. >__>
Stranger things have happened. Really... really strange things, actually. :-\
At least he didn't go out making lots of noise. We can retain a good image of him in our minds.
Waitwaitwait, Yannick is gone?yes
He posted porn.yes
My guess, he was bored here and wanted to go out with a bang.Not much of a bang. So, let's move on to something else.
I wonder, is this the very same phenomenon you encounter at funerals? I mean, I don't want to sound like an ass, but those three people were (to me) far from being "great". Keno's and Yannick's ban was inevitable and I think it was quite weird that Yannick wasn't banned or warned (though that could have happened behind the scenes) earlier. And Andrew, well, what has he ever done on/for the forum? >_>
Kenobro's gone? Aww...Didn't he flame you especially, called you a spammer a lot?
I think it was quite weird that Yannick wasn't banned or warned (though that could have happened behind the scenes)
Most people don't leave forever, they come back eventually. Most who leave forever don't announce it, they just leave.
That's why I said earlier. :PI think it was quite weird that Yannick wasn't banned or warned (though that could have happened behind the scenes)
Posting porn is an instant ban, no warning. It's pretty cut and dry and everyone knows that is not allowed. He knew what he was doing.
And there was much rejoicing.
Someone told me GD left as well.
I see.
How were you able to get past the IP ban anyway? I'm really glad your back and all, don't take it the wrong way.
I can be back now in a more permanent fashion.
And there was much rejoicing.
I'm leaving. I can't really explain why, but the best way to say it is that I no longer like it around here. No, I'm not saying the site has gone downhill or anything, you guys are just as great as before, but...Well, after finishing Octopus, I don't really feel as attached to this place as before. I'm drifting away.
Along with that, real life is kicking up; My free-time will be getting limited soon.
This was one great year spent on this forum, but It's time for farewells. Oh, and I would like to apologize to Gorman and the other players of the Brief Fantasy RP; I know some of you may have been looking forward to me joining.
Goodbye everybody! I'm aware that this isn't the best good-bye speech, but oh well. I'll still lurk around, but I'll have then moved on to TES fourms by then.
Farewell.
Babylon used to be the default theme, a few years ago.
No, dndfreak. You're just used to the "Default" because you've been using it for awhile. Most of the older members of GamingSteve have been on Babylon for years and find it very convenient and comfortable to look at.
There's a setting to get a pop-up when you receive a PM, or even an email. That's a lot easier than manually checking that section of the page :)No, dndfreak.

No, not at all. I really don't care about the looks as much as I do the functionality and as someone who makes at least 5-10 PMs a day I can honestly say that the effeciency of the system plays an important role. Whereas the default theme highlights in bold the alert of a new PM directly above the forum posts, Babylon puts it in fine print in the corner. advantage: default.
I don't really think banned members count in the same way that the others do.I suppose that makes sense.

Well sure, if you only want to totally ignore any contribution they made toward the site and focus entirely on the bad.
That's totally fair.
Your point definitely had merit and you're right. I shouldn't just focus on the negative. To me it's just a betrayal of trust and I have trust issues or something. :P
This forum needs more new members before you all go extinct.

Its true, I have been doing my best to attract people to the site but i haven't had a lot of success. It does not help that a couple members exist that literally don't want the site to a accumulate any new members
It would be easier if Steve came back.
Remember if you want Steve to start pod casting again you need to follow him on twitter. Just a little over 200 more followers and he will make a new pod cast.
Well that depends how you define the word "here". In the real world, "here" usually denotes some kind of presence and/or involvement.
Remember if you want Steve to start pod casting again you need to follow him on twitter. Just a little over 200 more followers and he will make a new pod cast.
That is a bit ridiculous. He would make podcasts without twitter back in our time.
You're far too new to know "what it was before" or even know what it was like when Steve was active.
That's like a kid born in the 90's talking about the 70's with a "Back in the day" attitude.
And why not? What's the harm in taking 30 seconds to make it, whether you use it or not. In fact, you might as well go off and delete it as soon as he makes the podcast if you're that much against being a statistic. All you're doing right now is ruining it for anyone that actually DOES want to see him come back. Who knows, if it turns out well enough then he may continue it again and the forum will start building up steam, finally becoming what it was before. Think about it, your refusal really isn't helping anybody.
Now if you excuse me, I gotta get Kaizer out of my room over on Whirled, he's spamming audio-effect crap again.

Crazen! Don't go! You're never too sexy to have internet friends!

Graveyard? ???It's where you bury dead people...
Make me mod, and I will bring change to GS.[ X ] Snork
No, Terrorism.
I uh, mean uh....Peace! Yes, peace and good will.
Vote for Snork and he will bring communism to the people!Only the people can bring about the wonderful and glorious communist forum that awaits behind the horizon! However, as mod I promise to act as a catalyst for the transformation that will turn this small gaming community into a shining light of friendship and brotherhood in the dismal darkness of the normal caste system, the one that divides the brothers of the forum into bourgeoisie and proletariat, the hard working forumites who make up the spine of internet society being relegated and subjected by those above them. Are you not as beneficial to forum society of the mods, those who whisk away your hard-won posts to secret places that you may not access, or ban your fellow family for playing after a work-filled day?
bye bye guys.
maybe I'll return some day.
WHY Does everyone leave! Soon this forum will be dead! :(
WHY Does everyone leave! Soon this forum will be dead! :(
This is a big risk due to the fact that this forum has lost it's two "points of interest" that made people come here in the first place:
- Interesting Spore speculation with the presence of Will himself (well, once) and a good Spore fanfic community
- GamingSteves podcasts
We need something that would make these forums relevant again.
Um, skyward. That post was almost two months ago.Aw ****, I meant to say Keno, buy Hammer man's post caught my eye, so I typed that, and then I left so it is now way to late to fix it! >:(
I think Kenotai is the one that is saying goodbye.
Bye, guys.
EDIT: lol I'm back.
See ya.
See ya.
you won't
He's obviously planning to stalk you.See ya.

Ah, so long since I last posted.
So, to sum it up, a guy who no-one has heard of left us a message telling us that we shall never hear of him again.
Celebration!
I will delete my account, and if I can't I'll ask a mod to do it.
I'm not an active member of this forum anymore, and don't really care what goes on.
Ah, so long since I last posted.
Anyways, I would like to say a few words...
Hydro, I'm not complaining, but I don't know what time I was banned from Sagan 4. I was inactive for 2 months after the warning and I would like to know what day I was banned.
And others, namely putspooza, I would like you to be wise to the fact that just because someone posts on the very thread someone was banned because of does not mean they are their alt.
Do not bother to reply to this unless by some miracle I lurk around to read what you had to say.
But I will never post again.
Bye GamingSteve.com, forever!
To remember me, here:(http://www.wizards.com/magic/images/whatcolor_isblack.jpg)Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz. (http://www.wizards.com/magic/playmagic/whatcolorareyou.asp)

Also, WHY does all the good RP happen when I am forced to leave?!
Your Brother got banned? What did you use, a shoddy proxy?
You're an ass rys.I never said I wasn't.
Crazen! Don't go! You're never too sexy to have internet friends!
alright, cause my need (or even desire) to come to this site is completely gone, I dont need to be gone anymore. though you wont see me much anyway.
I'm back, but I won't do as much anymore, cause I don't need to.
You've got to admit, Crazen is committed to leaving!
blahblahblah if you leave forever and then comeback you wont be welcomed as you are an attention whore blahblahblah
hey, could I not get chastised? I'm feeling unwelcome.
hey, could I not get chastised? I'm feeling unwelcome.Then let's start this conversation over:
Aw, ****... :(Thanks, i guess...
Well, bye Detox, you were a pretty radical dude, yo.
Thanks, i guess...I'm serious, I always thought you were a nice guy, liked your music too. ;)
So I decided to leave this place...
Thank you Flisch for being a grand creator and an overall friendly guy...
Thank you Yokto for being a good sport to talk to about WoD...
Thank you Sam, for being Sam i suppose...
Yannick and Kenobro are remembered too..
Rysworld you made me chuckle alot, while your antics were sometimes filled with lameness, you had the heart and courage to keep it trollin'. Funny guy with a heart at the right place.
I thank this forum for its creative role when anticipating spore, and I thank it for Dwarf Fortress.

Krystal Snoutsuckling - ((i]Kristalus inhalare[/i])
Creator: Detoxicated
Ancestor: Koral Beakworm
Habitat:Somarinoa Coast
Size: 20-25 cm Long
Diet: Herbivore (Prong Crystals, Ur-Corkscrew Crystals)
Reproduction: Sexual, Two Genders, Eggs in between Crystals
Description: The krystal snoutsuckling evolved from the koral beakworm, and even though it looks quite different, it still has close genetical similarities to their ancestor breed. They changed their diet however, switching to ur-corkscrew crystals and prong crystals. Due to the hammer on the lower side of the Snout it can easily open up the Crystal Korals and with ease it sucks out the juices with its snout.
When mating time arrives, this is about once every three months, the Snoutsucklings gather and "dance" with their fins around the ur-corkscrew crystals as well as the prong crystals. During this dance the females throw off their eggs, whereas the men send their semen. Those eggs that are impregnated settle beneath the Korals and start to grow. Those that aren't impregnated and the percentage of eggs that are waved away from the currents are left to die and are usually eaten by the sea dwelling creatures around.
also for the record, I quit twice, not a bunch of times like people say I did. chill out.Considering that you said you would never come back...
Also did anyone else notice detoxicated's last active has been "Today" every day?
At the very least, I think we'd need a better publicity campaign than:
"A place on the internet where people aren't dicks? It's true!"
GAMINGSTEVE.COM
It's that easy.

You know, I've considered leaving myself... but then I realized that with the energy I already devote to this site (whether or not it's well-applied is another matter), leaving would be a waste of time.

At first I thought Flisch was leaving forever and I was like...You'll never get rid of me, Pat!

Then I realized he wasn't and I was like...

Nor can any amount of hatred banish me from this location.
And why does everyone hate Flisch?
He's fine.
Screw you Pat. I should get all the attention.
You guys all suck, I'm gonna leave forever now and never come back! p_pQuoteAnd why does everyone hate Flisch?
He's fine.
Just messin with him obviously.
First: Wtf missing link? I am not a troglodyte. Especially not between you and an evolved human.
Don't be a stranger now.
There's a thread for goodbyes. And this should probably go in the spore section or something.
Did you intentionally pick a silly overdramatic way to leave?
I even made a makro for you. >_>
Pokemon Garnet and Irkkuf of Sidereal Hour fame will go to Yuu.
You mean, DON'T delete the incredbly angry post I made in the Gripe Thread at 2:00 in the morning or something while I ws hopped up on sugar and recovering from a nightmare that involved Plank of Wood and my college-age cousin?

Ok, see ya 'round!
I've decided to leave the forums.
In my opinion, if you care enough about us all to make a goodbye post, then we havn't seen the last of you.
Hurricane Irene I would guess.
Never send a hurricane to do a man's job.I guess you can say...
Oh, I see you guys have your share of drama.
I hope you guys don't crumble anytime soon. :D
While I still don't see the need for someone to officially "leave forever" rather than just taking a break and coming back when they feel like it, I am going to miss you B.A.S. and good luck in your future endeavors. You're welcome back any time, my good sir.
And Raz, good luck to you as well!
Public with the mistreatment he was getting from the mods.Let's put things into perspective. Pat was claiming he was mistreated by the mods without ever providing examples.

Didn't feel right to put it into the vacation thread, seeing as how it isn't exactly a vacation, and I usually drop by now and then here.Well, I'll be darned.

You gotta do what you gotta do I guess, but remember that you can still move on to the next stage in life without cutting all ties to the past.
This forum served a purpose for me. In fact it affected a very great part of my life, amongst them the skills I have learned and, decided to pursue. I wouldn't be the same person without it, for the better and for the worse. Whatever the case, I'm leaving. And it is a strange thing. I thought this day would never come. But when I was 7 years old I never thought the day would come that I would go to "junior high" or "high school". But alas, I'm already in university, I own a car and go to work, I buy my own furniture and pay my bills.
Maybe it's just a coincidence I decided to say goodbye today, on the same week as I turn 20. I already decided to leave some time ago. On this evening, right now, I just felt the need to tie up some loose ends. Out with the old, in with the new. That's the feeling I have. Some things need to be appreciated for what they are and what they meant to me. But it's time to put them in the past. Being here may have been one step I needed to take but now I need to take another.
I am sorry for everything that I have left undone and unsaid. I have new responsibilities now. I need to move on with my life, and it's about time, too. Have a good one, everyone.
I thought I was gone forever, look at me. Annoying our resident old farts by visiting :D Always look back on the past, Great Distance.
Oh Slinky.Yes?
huh.
Well, I have nothing left to say here. I guess just, Bye.

so, bye.
You know, like after you've moved out from home, you can still come by from time to time, right?
