Ladies, gentlemen, mammals, insects and fish, I have some sad news to deliver. One of our most respected members has left our midst.

Joby has left the building.

Joby, or er-no to those that don’t know him, felt he wanted to leave the forums because of comments from certain people he thought were his friends. Some people will know what these are, but I’m certainly not going to tell you. It’s not my place to drag up old issues, but those who said it know who they are. What’s said was said.

Now, admittedly I don’t know much about er-no, because I’ve only really been here 3 months. What I can say about him though is this: er-no is a really great guy, smart, funny and always there to lend a helping ear. He hasn’t been posting much lately, despite being voted 6th Notable, but when he does it’s always funny and worth reading. Even in the old days, when he was an annoying little get, everyone still loved him for what he was. He was The No.. er-no has become a bit of a friend to all of us, and is not scared to share some personal information, as anyone who has read his “My Way Out” post will know. He is a true regular, very much a part of SR. We’ll all be very sad to see him go. Many will try to persuade him to stay, but he seems committed.

Anyway, the er-no you know is no more. He has stopped posting on SR, despite what anyone says. I have been talking to him on MSN over the past week, and this is his final decision.

Goodbye er-no, we will all miss you. Come back soon.

TO EVERYONE ON THE FORUMS:

Please leave goodbyes for er-no, as he would like to read what you have to say. These can be personal, serious, funny or pleading, but er-no really is leaving so please, have some respect.

TO TONY: er-no has requested that you please don't remove his status as Notable. He says he will return one day, but only after a period away from SR.

LIGHTER NOTE: And when he returns, THE FORUM WILL KNOW ABOUT IT!

Ortega, that wasn't very sensitive.

er-no has asked me to put:

Its little annoying users like you who dont know when to take things seriously or not. No you are not someone who can get away with a silly one line 'tryingtobe' witty comment, only Sniper can do that.

Sadly I wont miss comments like that.

Well how do i know, when to be seriuos or not hey? I havnt got a clue why you have left.

Well actually i have got an idea. Was it somthin to do with you sharing everything in your life on these forums? Well if it was, what did you expect? There is always an idiot who is going to say somthin stupid. ( looks like i'm the idiot here, and i'm sorry for that).

I'm sorry if I have been insenseitive towards you. I never ment it to be like that. As i said before i dont really know why you have left so how can you be saying that i have been insenseitive?


End of the day, i'm sorry okay.

Could be I suppose. If it is, then er-no there's no point. Don't worry about being popular - if you enjoy it here, stay, and screw what anyone else thinks!

You know the *important* people here like you! :-)
