Taking a break

[Leon]

Steve, sorry to hear your Dad passed away (and recently too). May he RIP. I have always thought you are a good member with strong opinions. But at least you have reasoning behind them. A lot of people have opinions based on others opinions, you don't do that. You have your own and voice them. I hope you don't leave but if you do I hope you come back soon...
Tons of folks take breaks. Many times I think I need one.

I am sorry to hear about your dad.
My condolences to you and your family.


As for the haters on this board, who gives a crap what they say.

Keep doing your thing!!!

This is exactly how I feel.

I’m so sorry for your loss.

The irony is that it looks like Steve isn't even reading this.

I agree with Orly (another member whose posts I enjoy). Could not have put this better. I've always enjoyed reading your posts, and your passion for Lou Gehrig.

Sincere condolences, especially as it was unexpected and sdden. Tough to say good-bye.

Steve,

From a nobody here, I've always thought your posts were well thought and informative. Very sorry to hear about your father. Like Leon said, may he RIP. I hope you reconsider and stay on the boards as you're not one of the problem children here.

Don’t let the few pooper-scoopers get under your skin...

My condolences...I know how hard it is to lose someone you love, especially unexpectedly. Hope you can find solace in the memories of the time you had to together.

Regarding the jerks...Let it roll off your back like water on a duck. There are some here that are too set in their opinions and ways, no matter how obsolete they are, to ever see another's. I just laugh at the crotchety-ness.

I always appreciate your posts because you don't toe the company line like so many here who fear ridicule.

Steve, sorry for your loss. We've done BST transactions and they've been perfect. For what it's worth, I've always thought your posts were well thought out and informative. While I don't agree with all of them, I appreciate your contributions to this board.

Sorry to hear about you dad, lost mine unexpectedly too a few years back. I echo the sentiment of not letting a few bad apples spoil the bunch. Some will always have bullying on their agenda, but this is a place where we all share a similar esoteric hobby, and we should a little more forgiving if someone doesn't share our opinion.

Sorry for your loss Steve.

sorry for your loss and how you are treated on net54 (or elsewhere if occurred somewhere else)

"A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness." John Keats

May your heart find peace and may its love never pass into nothingness.

I suspect the grief and stress of losing your father makes the words of one or more misguided stand out more. This forum is about sharing opinions and information about the hobby we love - and you do just that. I too have enjoyed reading your posts (don't recall if my opinion aligned or not - likely both). A friend taught me a long time ago - "opinions are like assholes - everyone has one" - I encourage you not to let the words of a few dissuade you from continuing to make a meaningful contribution here.

Sorry for your loss, have not had the pleasure of meeting you or doing a deal (yet) but don't worry about the negative nellies... your posts are just fine...be well!
