Well guys, all good things come to an end.
The time has come for me to say goodbye to the forum. Its just not the place it used to be. The attitude has changed, the athmosphere has changed. And certain other mods have become very territorial and throwing alot of stuff back in my face. And the forum has just changed. As of today ill be resigning as a moderator and deleting my account. Formula has a very tight grip on things so im sure youll all get along just fine.

thanks guys, i mean, who knows, maybe down the road a ways ill come back, but for now, its just too much work. Things have gotten a lot more slack then they used to be, its a very 3rd grade level, and certain other mods are fighting me when i try to clean it up, and ya know, i just dont have the energy to fight a crusaid like that. Ive been a mod here for a long time, and feel that im due the respect with having done so, but certain other mods that happen to have been placed above me feel that dosnt count for anything. Its a respect issue, i dont feel im getting the ammount i deserve, and to me, thats a big deal. so rather than continue to get pissed about it, im just gonna walk away. Perhaps its for the best, ive got alot i need to do, and this is a major time kill.

ERIK!!! DUDE!!! I hope I am not one of the ones that's your reasons for going.... I promise I'll clean up the typing, I promise....
Hey seriously, you gotta do what's right for you. (And I seriously hope I'm not one of your reasons for leaving). Sorry to hear you go, and thanks for the 5,000,000,000 PM answers trying to help me out. And if you really don't mind I may hit you up on your other email from time to time to see what's up and ask you a question or two.
Earl's gonna miss you. I will too.
If you're ever up this way... Cheesesteaks and beers on me.
Vaya con Dios, Amigo,
Jim

why does this feel like a breakup all of a sudden.... Its not you... its me.......
its nothing any one of you guys have done. so dont worry about it. Ive been thinking about this for a while now, its just that today i got the nudge i needed to finally accept it. believe me, if i was mad at ya'll it would have been more than 97 that got banned ;)

lol breakup. Its not that, its just that everyone looks up to you and respects you. Like wright said, yer apart of the family man. Screw AF mods (nix john) who don't treat you the way you feel you should be treated.

One thing that is a must on the mod app is that you have thick skin. So I doubt it had something to do with a slight attitude but I am sure we haven't seen the last of 89.

I'm the same way respect means everything to me, let me the first to say fuck the other modsWatch it now. You talk about respect being everything to you and you go around to say fuck the mods. WTF?Screw AF mods (nix john) who don't treat you the way you feel you should be treated.Watch it. Don't jump to conclusions about it being about the mods. While it may or may not be a mods fault or a misunderstanding that has transpired, there is no need to jump on the screw the mods bandwagon.
As for 89, he's a good mod and I am sure he'll be back. Its like Hotel California, you can always check in, but you can never check out.
