Aren't what they used to be. They dn't have the pull they once did.

I think you can all guess why, but I'm leaving... For the time being anyway.

I've just had enough of it all. All the senseless topics, all the spamming... everything. The SR forums used to be great, they still are great but they're not as good as they once were, and they're going down hill rapidly.

You'll all gonna think this is a stunt to try and get the forums to improve, well yes it is.

But seeing as I don't really have much signifigance in these forums, I don't expect it to work.

I'm leaving for two weeks. If things haven't improved I'm leaving for a month. If things haven't improved by then, I'm leaving altogether.

I'm not gonna drivel on, because, to be honest I can't be bothered.

Bye everyone, I'll be back in two weeks.

Chris

As I said, I'll respect your descision on whatever you choose to do, but you know how I feel.

I will say this though, go on-line tomorrow and check out the quality of the forums, if they are good, reconsider on your vow to silence and post to your heart's content!

Hm, so many people leaving, so many newbies coming on, oh yes, the good old days were great. But they are gone, and I don't think they are coming back. Let us make the best out of what we have.

Don't go RBS.

You can't expect the forums to improve in two weeks, unless you do something about it.

Anyway, I respect you.

Having said that though, I'm sticking by what i said.

When I log off tonight, that's the last you'll see of me for two weeks.

You have my email if for an strange reason you'll feel the need to contact me.

I'm here for another 40 minutes then I'm off for two weeks.

I'll just sit in the background, and see how things pan out. As usual.

I knew someone would come out with that remark.

Thing is though, Nick, I've tried. I've tried to keep the forums in check. Maybe not noticably, but I have tried. And I'm just fed up.

It's actually quite scary how these forums can depress me like they have.

Still...

Ohh... I dunno, I see how I feel tomorrow.

I've shifted some work load, so I'm around more...but I still stay mainly in the PC forum..

I skulk around here, and post when I find a good topic, but it still doesn't feel the same. Anyway, sorry to see you going, hopefully you'll be refreshed by the break and slightly less bittered by the situation when you get back..
