Leaving

Comic Book Guy · 09-24-2002, 07:47 PM

I am leaving Entmoot and thus resigning as Administrator.

samwiselvr2008 · 09-24-2002, 07:55 PM

Can I ask why? Or would you rather not tell? Just wondering!

Bye!

galadriel88 · 09-24-2002, 08:06 PM

Well I'm not quite sure how to begin this, but anyhoo...

I'll start with being honest in admitting that you were never my favorite admin. However, after reviewing a conversation I had in pms with bmilder, I have come to appreciate the fact that we had an admin who performed his duties and was very serious about his role - to a greater extent than the others, perhaps, but was, nonetheless. I have not admitted this to bmilder before (my stubborn streak gets in the way sometimes). But just the same, I appreciate you for that. I would be happy to see you stay as a regular member, and would even be OK with it if you changed your mind about resigning, but if you must leave, then so be it. My sincere apologies for anything I may have said or done to make you want to leave. May the force be with you!

Khadrane · 09-24-2002, 09:28 PM

Man, now I'm sad. Everyone is leaving. Goodbye, I guess.

Renille · 09-24-2002, 10:09 PM

Very sad...bye CBG! We'll all miss you...come back to visit sometime!

***Ben*** · 09-24-2002, 10:23 PM

Bye, thanks for all your hard work and dedication.

Ms. Undomial · 09-24-2002, 10:28 PM

Hey CBG One Question before you leave... How do you become a Admin or a Moderator?? Bye!

***Khamûl*** · 09-24-2002, 10:37 PM

"May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again...
May God hold you in the palm of his hand. "

- An Old Irish Blessing

I figured that it was appropriate for the occasion, and also appropriate since you're Irish.

Rána Eressëa · 09-25-2002, 12:04 AM

And right when I began to like the ol' bugger.

Well, old in my respect.

I'll miss ya, CBG. Have fun wherever you're going.

BeardofPants · 09-25-2002, 12:13 AM

You said it, Khamul.

For whatever reasons that you're leaving, I hope you can drop in from time to time. Guess I'll still catch you on AIM occasionally.

Measuring a summer's day,
I only finds it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.

Tangerine, Tangerine,
Living reflection from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen,
And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,
Does she still remember times like these
To think of us again?
And I do.

***Sister Golden Hair*** · 09-25-2002, 12:13 AM

Take care of yourself CBG. IM me when you can. Always enjoyed our little chats. I'll miss you on the forums, especially when I need help with that stupid admin cp. Anyway, thanks for everything.

Sween · 09-25-2002, 01:50 PM

bye bye

Radagast The Brown · 09-25-2002, 03:27 PM

no... he can't leave.... I liiked him, or at least started to like him... why? everyone leaves us. I begin to think they leave because the others before.

but who will moderate instead of him? he was important. he maderated 2 forums... the movies and the lotr...

***IronParrot*** · 09-25-2002, 04:18 PM

CBG: Though I wasn't around much when your posting was at its prime, I can still say that you were a great contributor to these forums not only as a moderator, but also as a fellow Tolkien fan. Drop by again sometime.

Cirdan · 09-25-2002, 04:35 PM

CBG - Thanks for all your hard work. It was a job for the Flash, the Green Lantern, and possibly Iron Man. Superman... Oh, please!

johnnyrod · 09-25-2002, 04:38 PM

well, that was succinct, CBG. Is there some kind of story behind it? Do I guess by the lack of any replies from CBG that it's the last we've seen of him? Hope not, of course.

Menelvagor · 09-25-2002, 06:32 PM

Bye, CBG! I've always appriciated you as an admin. best of luck!

***gdl96*** · 09-25-2002, 08:19 PM

This is unfortunate, and I will miss your presence here at Entmoot. There is simply no emoticon for what I am feeling.

Maybe we should limit mating to once every seven years because of your absense. For many, that will mean much, much less. For me, it will mean much, much more.

Smell ya later!

TinuvielChild · 09-25-2002, 09:25 PM

NOOOOO!!!!!!!! First Tater left. That was a tragedy, a blow to the very heart of Entmoot. But his apprentice, the wonderful, the spudly, the semi-despised, the dedicated CBG lived on and continued to admin with the best of them. Now, for some undisclosed reason, the mini-Tater is leaving!!! I cannot bear it!

You guys all know I hate it when people leave. I was sad when Nibs left in April, but he's back now (yay!!!

) It would appear that Laurelyn's gone (I haven't seen her in a while), KyoteFields is gone, and various others have faded into the mists of time...but CBG can't leave!!!

Oh well. Enjoy yourself, CBG, wherever you may go, and whatever you may do. But do come back and visit sometimes!

"May those that love us love us
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn't turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles
So we'll know them by their limp"
-another ancient Irish "blessing"

Toodles, CBG. It's been good knowing ya.

TinuvielChild · 09-25-2002, 09:36 PM

"May it be, an evening star
Shines down upon you.
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true.
You walk a lonely road
Oh, how far you are from home.
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
A promise lives within you now.
May it be, the shadow's call
Will fly away.
May it be you journey long
To light the day.
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun.
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now."
