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...

Yep, I never get tired of reading topics like " i had nitemare last nite it was scary". He's deep.

Fact is, if someone like Sniper turned up now, you wouldn't give him the time of day. I wouldn't have given him the time of day from the start. And that, MoJoMan, is why I'm not Grix.

Ah, here's a serious question I just thought up...

Take a pen and paper, and, in 2 mins, write down the names of all the notables you can remember, and then put ticks next to those ones who you actually see around...

Just doing that mentally, I haven't seen RBS or Goatboy for ages! Where are they?

Oh, and there are only 5 notables right... I didn't miss anyone ;)

I'm off to bed, grow up, for christ's sake. You're judging books by covers and people by appearances. There's a lot more to Sniper than he'll ever let on, so please just let him be, ok?
