A Sad day for my My last Post O/T

1) The venom line referred to the last line of his post

"If one does not have the courage to take the heat, then go off quietly into the sunset."

As I said earlier, making a decision to give up a hobby AND more importantly, leave a message board (or a group of friends, which to many of us this board is) can be an emotional decision. A post like the one which began this thread is not always a goodbye but it can feel like that to the poster, and thus he (or she) needs to have an appropriate venue to bid everyone a fond adieu before heading off into the sunset.


2) Bruce and myself will always disagree on various topics about the hobby. I do understand that and it's not a problem for me. However, Mr. Sloate nailed the real issue, which is, the more one distances themselves from potential friends and allies, the less likely someone will help them when the time comes to acquire items on "American's Toughest Want List". Bruce, try a little honey some time, it might get you even more items on your list.
