Joetheeskimo Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I'll understand if this post is considered spam and closed, but: I haven't posted for at least a month, and when I finally come back, I see several "I'm leaving" or "good-bye" threads, and it tears me up to see people leave. We've all been posting here so much, it's like we're all best friends and we look out for eachother, and then someone leaves and tears the connection apart. I'm afraid one day my friends will leave, and then what? What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I see no point in it, why not leave the door open for yourself? It's like shooting yourself in the foot imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Torque Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Originally posted by Agen_Terminator I see no point in it, why not leave the door open for yourself? It's like shooting yourself in the foot imho. Except you dont have to go to the hospital:) Even though you really wanna leave because of friends leaving, in my opinion is kinds a strange reason. Thats like quiting school because there are no friends in your class. I think you should hang around for like a month or two more. And try to interact more. SInce you are gone so long, the people lose intrest in you. They think you are ignoring them. So try and get more involved if you can. I remember i always made threads like this saying that i wanted to leave. I always found myself re-thinking my actions, and staying for a while longer. And it helped alot. Hope you stay.

BongoBob Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I would miss you joe. You were the first person to not care about my post count, and thus the first person to be nice to me on these boards. Don't go. While there are people leaving, there are also new people too.

Joetheeskimo Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 Another thing I couldn't leave is the swampy way of talking nonsense!! ..but anyway, I just hope none of you chums leave anytime soon...I'm sure not leaving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Siraious Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I think that people shouldnt leave, just do what I have been doing for the last two or so months, lurk! I know a lot of people will hate to hear me say that but hey its fun you get to see what people are like and if there is nothing you really want to say its the best thing. Personally I think goodbye post are silly but others wont think so. But I think Agen, Torque and Eggplant summed it up. If you cant find more friends in the swamp then go else where as well. I mean look in the other forums as well because there is a lot of great people out there with great ideas and thoughts that only usually visit certain parts of LF. Mind you watch yourself in the Senate things get a little crazy there sometimes, its why I stopped posting there. But yeah There is lots ofgreat people still on LF. ***Wow this must be my first post here in like 3 months maybe I should post a little more...nah!*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUNNER Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Ok, I need to make a little post here. Some of you talk about htese "great friends" you have here yet some of you have only been here for a few months. Don't worry about people leaving, it happens at every board you go to. What you need to think about is the people you haven't even meet yet. Wait till you have been here for 5 years. I have a ton of friends here that I have seen get married, have kids, graduate from school, go off into the armed forces. Land the big job. I myself have had 2 kids since I have joined. I have also seen some very dear friends leave. More then I would like to count. But such is life and I will always remember the time tha twe did have together and the threads we started and the all night posts that went on and on. And if they should ever come back it will be as if they had never left. People leave, that's a fact, but try to focus on the people you have yet to get to know. You might be suprised at how you and someone else have an even greater bond then some one you already know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Groovy Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Ok here is my thing. I don't mind the occasional, "Hey guys, I'll be gone for several months", or "Loosing my Internet, so goodbye", or even "Getting married", you know, things like that. That stuff is fine. This is what I HATE! I'm leaving because: 1. LF sucks 2. You guys are all a bunch of nOOb lamerz 3. The mods are nazis. 4. My thread got closed 5. This is boring. 6. All of the above. The real irony is that more then half of these cases all wind up back posting here the following week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
