"SHOULD I GIVE UP MY NOTABILITY?"

One of the whole points of having notables is that you recognise a small group of people who make the forums worth visiting. Indeed, it there was a larger number of notables then there would be no point in having them. More importantly, notables are (supposidly) respected, members of the room who post good topics...

Now, as most of you know, I've landed myself a gap year job working down South for 9 months. Not only will I not have much time to post (stupidly, we're paid in advance, allowing us to drink on the company before we start!), but I won't even have a computer initially. Even when I do, I'll be sharing the line with other gap year students, so won't be online much (and I doubt we'll get broadband). All this adds up to me not posting very often (perhaps a few times a month every so often)...

After that, I have my heart set on going around the world during that summer and doing loads in interesting stuff. It won't be until the end of summer when I go to Uni that I'll have a net connection and a laptop to post with...

So, should I stand down as a notbale? Personally I think I should, but seeing as it's you people who (mostly!) voted for me (points at people who didn't vote for me!) I thought I should put it to your opinions. Remember that even when I go to uni I won't have so much time for posting... as well as academics, there'll be drinking and a few other projects that I'm working on (details to follow next year!). Either way, I'll hardly be a notable member of the forums any more...

Your opinions please...

Well, I'm doing a gap year at IBM, and then comp sci at uni... going to apply next year for them, so I don't know where I'm going yet.

Hey, someone else whos doing the same as me! Ive just finished 6th form and im taking a year out aswell!

Just out of interest, what you gonna be doing at uni?

Keep it, you earned it. You were voted in at a time when you had been here ages, post good posts and were worthy of the vote. You could be back so why should you give it up?

Good luck when you go. Enjoy it.

You'll be sorry... and afraid. Yes, be very afraid.

I wouldn't give up, as you never know when you're coming back on the site.

Well, Sonic. No. I mean, Sniper, I don't have anything against the guy, but he doesn't post much.

Pro Evo. Where is he? I havn't seen him for ages.

Ok, fair enough if you have jobs and stuff.

Sonic, its totally up to you mate. But, I think no. Keep you Notable status.
