I have been dipping in and out over the last couple of days reading all the messages and PMs. Even if I don't reply directly, I have read your message and I thank you for it. Although to the multiple people who have tried to convert me to their religion, I'll paraphrase some random Irishman (and not Voltaire) when I say "Now is not the time to be making enemies". Wink

You still have your sense of humor, that's good
I've known this day would probably come for the best part of 10 years. Obviously I hoped it wouldn't come for another 10 years, but I came to terms with it a long time ago. It's probably why I've been so vocal in telling people to make sure their loved ones know about their back ups, and to not rely on their memory alone for anything important.

You have been a beacon of reason and rationality shining into this otherwise dark corner of the Internet.
I couldn't ask to leave behind a better legacy. Smiley

Farewell my friend. It's a sad goodbye but I can't stop smiling thinking of our interactions on this forum. Thank you for the great memories.
Have a cookie for me sometime. Cheesy

For everyone defending me above - it is only natural that after years on the forum that I would have pissed off at least a few people. I have both those users on ignore though, and as I said somewhere before, I'm not going to lose a second of sleep over what either of them think of me. For what it's worth, I stand by everything I've said about BSV and Wasabi over the years, and if part of my legacy is continuing to piss off a couple of scammers from beyond the grave, then that's even better.

And you can all stop sending me merit - Loyce and fillippone are going to have to cycle even harder to catch up now!
