Taking a break

[curious_sb]

Hi Guys and Girls

Just a quick announcement to say I am taking a break from the forums for a while, maybe forever I dont know, I havent been on much lately, because I have been stewing over something that was said about / to me as a joke but that I took surprisingly personally - like a cold knife to the heart - especially when others laughed about it too.

Still what was said was said, and it made me realise that I *DO* sit in front of computers too much and just talk BS most of the time and look at porn too much, and most of the women I ever met that are into bondage *DO* have surnames that end in .JPG and I realised how lonely and sad that made me....

Still as a final good bye I wanted to say I hope I gave the admin and moderators some inspiration and the forum looks like it is doing well now so I'll just slip out quietly and say good bye....

Adios.

I was one of those that added to the joke, and that is all it was. I hope you will reconsider, for we all value your input, and sense of humor.
There was never any intent to cause this type of pain to you, it was all meant in good fun. I did not believe for a second that what I said would have this type of effect, or I would not have said it.
I apologize for having said it.
If you truly must leave, I am sorry to see you go.
I have been trying to cut back on the time I spend on the PC also. It is way too easy to waste a whole day doing nothing productive, so I know where you are coming from on that. I now try to limit myself to no more than an hour in the morning, and maybe a couple hours in the evening. I can still check the forum and my favorite websites, but I'm not spending as much time there as before.

Well, I've not really been around these forums very long, but during my lurking I've seen you post a lot of very good posts, you seem to have been a great contributer to these forums.

I wish you luck in where ever life takes you

I am terribly sorry that my poor joke hurt your feelings. It was the last thing I wanted. Please accept my sincere apologies.

Taking a break from the computer is only good and I hope you will find what you are looking for out there. Life is too short to waste in front of a computer screen. Get out, meet some people, enjoy the summer and most of all have a great time. Wherever life takes you I wish you good luck.

You are naturally always welcome back to the forum as a user and moderator if you should change your mind at a later time. You have done an excellent work and highly contributed to the success of this forum. I and I am sure all the other users thank you for your work, help and friendship.

did i miss something?



also, sorry to see you go mate, hope you come back in the future

I will also be disappointed to see you go, but things change and people move on so if you decide to make your hiatus more permanent then good luck to you in the future and feel free to drop in every now and again to let us know how you're getting on (like the postcards from Uncle Travelling Matt in Fraggle Rock). In the meantime, though, enjoy your Summer and we'll, hopefully, see you back here soon.

Curious, though I really never got to know you, through you posts here I can see that your opinions are thoughtful and well reasoned. and so I also respect this decision of yours to take a break.

Life is about attaining a balance; spiritual, physical and mental. Nothing revelatory in that, yet balance in life is necessary nonetheless.
There's nothing wrong in spending time online in a bondage forum... it just has to be done with respect to the other facets in your life.

I would be disappointed if you would stay away for ever. But if you do, much success.

Well my favorite foil, I've been away on a slight brake and missed the post in question myself. But the net can be VERY addicting. I am just fortunate enough not to have an addicting personality. I trust once you've been away you'll see that all you really needed was a break. Go soak up some reality and come back and share with us. Don't make me come over there YOU!
How ever it turns out, take care, have fun, and it's been a pleasure to have known you, even if it was only on line,

[hallenbeck3]

that sucks. your posts were great. funny, imformative, sexy, safe. I am sorry that your feelings were hurt and sorry you are going. I come back from time to time for new ideas and to share my stories. I hope like me its just a break. If not, then tie yourself up for me and enjoy.


ps. sorry for the late post. was on one of those breaks.
