I agree with Toad. Its all in the way you go out. Class is met with class.

Most of the "door" remarks I have seen and participated in were within another thread dealing with the changes in the game. Not in a goodbye thread.

If the thread is all pissing and moaning Im sure that the "door" comment would be included. But if the player leaving did state he/she does not like the changes to the game and no longer wish to participate then Im sure then even some of the player's BBS enemies would wish for them to return soon.

Then there are those few who do add their unwelcome comments. But those are expected and usually ignored until someone comments on it or makes a post about it. Then the comment becomes the highlight and overshadows the players withdrawl from the game. Just like a troll.

My goodbye from the entire HTC community goes up in late November as I am leaving for the military. Feel free to tell me to let the door hit me on the way out. Because honestly, if anyone takes something personal as in a insult from text on the internet. Its a shame.

I left, never said goodbye  (3 weeks ago):(

perhaps i should?

OK.

To those that knew me  . To those that saved my arse while in the virtual sky .

All I can say is it was fun while it lasted, the fun stopped, so did I but made many friends along the way, so that must be a good thing.

HTC............ contrary to what you might think after all the griefer posts i posted, I really do wish you the best of luck with this and I hope your decisions prove me wrong.

Now start the mud slinging  :aok

Goodbye, Adios, Au Revoir, Ciao, SEEEEEEEEYYYAAAAAAAAAAAA

Gonna take awhile. There's a few hundred threads to dig through, and with HT's spelling... the search button is not your friend.

I see what toad sees... the whiney crybabies get the "don't let the door hit you on the way out" and the oldtimers that leave without whining get a "see ya, will miss ya... come back soon"

Your spin is just crap.  An excuse for seeming moral superiority.

 hell.. the whiners were probly all old relaxed realism guys anyway.

The arenas are getting better... everyone is getting what they want..  You aren't helping.

I see nothing wrong if a guy leaves and decides to post his reasons why he's leaving.
Just seems some people can't resist the juvenile "dont let the door" comments.

Look at it this way it's another $15 a month lost (they all add up), that could go into game development.

You a fine one calling anyone a whiner - Your posts for the last God knows how long have been nothing but whines against everyone and anything non-furball.

The "you aren't helping" comment is a gem - You and your small clique of self appointed AH police have done more in the last year or so to cause more friction in the community than any of the recent game changes.

As for "everyones getting what the want" and the "arenas are working" - LOLOLOLOL, which frickin planet you living on.

he is telling us how to act toward each other.   When a player blames everyone and the game on him quitting and claims that it is changes in the game that are making him quit...

He will get positive answers from those who agree the changes are bad and he will get negative ones from those who are happy and relieved with the changes and are glad to finaly have a little bit of more fun in the game.

It can be percieved by some, like falc, that we are picking on the whiner... to others it is simply... "you had it your way for ages and it sucked and now that things are getting better you want to pout and throw a tantrum and threaten us?"   Why should we feel bad or sympathetic that a gameplay that we hated is not as easy for him to do anymore?  

the guy could simply say.... I am getting burned out or... life is in the way etc.... I never see negative responses to this kind of post.

I have seen guys who like to furball leave in the past and whine on their way out... I agreed with why they left and was positive... the toolshedders didn't and they were negative.

I never seen falc get all teary eyed and moral about that tho.

Nope.. it is only now that his ox is being gored that he asks for a koooom bye aaaah session.   It was never "can't we all just get along?"   before.
