If good-bye threads bother you so much, why read them? 

The titles are usually pretty clear as to what the subject is, so just move on to the next one. 

If someone leaves the game, I for one like to know.  I have seen many disappear and have no idea if they changed their ID, or just decided to leave.  If the thread is a goodbye whine, I usually stop at the point where I see who is leaving.

There are choices in every situation in life.  Some choices may not be good as others, but a person always has options.

Some folks make friends with others they don't see all the time in game. I see nothing wrong with wanting to let them know they are leaving. Several guys I know have left the game and I often wonder if they're alright. Wish they would have posted something.

I think the OP was referring to the really new guys who are saying bye and nobody really is..... :cry over it.

AH community is like a big family.

Like any big family at times there are going to be fights, hair pulling, shin kicking, and other various and assorted dirty tricks.

If your leaving because you no longer have that addiction, that "itch" to fly, well take a long break, cya when you get back.

If your leaving because you can't stand the family anymore, well I feel sorry for you.
Because it is a family, and most of us do really get along, and its pretty cold and lonely out there.

I just wanted to say it once instead of responding to every Tom, Dick and Harry who comes to the BBs whining about the gameplay, eny, collision model, caps or whatever the flavor of the day "I'm leaving because of" reason is.

Cya.  Buh-bye.

I think half these people want everyone to say "Oh, please don't go".  But instead everyone validates them by posting in their threads and encouraging more attention seekers.  No wonder there's so many repetetive anti-AH whines on the boards.

If you are going to leave, let your squaddies know because more than likely they will be the only ones that care. No need for the drama here by posting your reasons for leaving, when you cancel your account there is the questionaire you can fill in for HTC so they know why you did it.
If you want sympathy for your reasons contact the Salvation Army, most everyone here have problems in RL so we don;t need problems from a game.
The only time I don't mind seeing a "I'm leaving" thread is when it's tastefully done and also short.
