I just wanted to say goodbye to all of you that I've come to know a bit since joining here about a year ago. I've decided its time for me to say goodbye to these forums. Juggling my new 50+ hour a week work schedule, time with my daughter, a new girlfriend, and an aspiring music career just doesn't leave me much free time to waste posting on these forums, and even if I were so inclined, I absolutely loathe this new forum software and all the stupid new 'features' it brought. WHY FIX SOMETHING THAT ISNT BROKEN? anyways...

If you want to get ahold of me, my S/N on yahoo or AIM is nan0bug00. I should also be stopping in #neochat from time to time.

Later! *waves*

gotta love it when people say goodbye and they're leaving a forum like it's an actual physical place.

eat sh!t. some of us actually befriend others, and when you lose friends, its not fun. it doesnt matter if it is in real life or on the internet. if you cant establish a relationship with someone, that doesnt mean its wrong - it simply means you cant do it. so why dont you back off and just say something nice instead of being an arsehole?

I know what it's like to finally realize that your priorities are effed up and to leave certain things behind trying to amend your life. Good luck, in all honesty. When you get it all figured out, you'll probably be back. :) Atleast, hopefully you'll return to be a positive addition to the forums. :)

i'm just saying it's not that difficult and time consuming to type forums.anandtech.com if you are bored at some point during the day, and the fact that people need to "leave" a forum just seems pathetic to me. i guess i'm just really angry today. ignore everything i say.

Yes, but I think he was saying that he will not have enough time to do even that ("Juggling my new 50+ hour a week work schedule, time with my daughter, a new girlfriend, and an aspiring music career just doesn't leave me much free time to waste posting on these forums"). He probably ended up spending 2 hours on a planned 10 mins visit :p

I agree w/ you Kev. It really does seem kind of lame when ppl have to annouce that they are leaving. You know in the future at some point they will visit the forums for a few minutes. It's not like he's an old friend who you won't be seeing anymore.
