I find this all very, very ironic. A few months ago, all of you people making such a huge deal out of this nonsense were at my throats about what I said when I left. Now I was asked to come back to make things more bearable, and everyone has a hissy fit, throws public tantrums regarding private subject matter and leaves. For the same reasons I did no less. :laugh: Oh, the slow folk always lag behind. :laugh:

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.
I have three. Does that make me Emperor or something?

The only thing I ever commented on about you leaving was the fact that you ran out of here on Aramant's coat-tails and, at the time, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
"Be thankful you're healthy." "Be bitter you're not going to stay that way."
"Be glad you're even alive." "Be furious you're going to die."
"Things could be much worse." "They could be one hell of a lot better."

*shrugs* I had discussed it before he considered it. Assumptions make people look like idiots.

The technical implications seem reasonable to me, but since I've never run a forum others would be able to support/debunk the reason given better.
But quoting someone's PM isn't generally polite. Maybe if you removed it and just paraphrased the technical reason given instead? It's up to you but I wouldn't want you to be rude without intending it. http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/884656-post66.html

Heh, too true. Anyways I didn't disagree with some of the things Aramant and you said, it's rather prophetic now.

Heh :laugh: , I suppose I hadn't thought of it that way but some of the things said about particular mods has more than proven itself true in my eyes.

Pattie and Jen always said I was a prophet. I could always tell what they were going to do.
