I'm permanently leaving DU
Last night, I hurt a very dear friend. I asked him/her in a PM
to ask a mod to remove my profile and recind my membership.

Those of you who have my email and/or cell keep in touch, and
feel free to share them with DUers you trust. This is my last
post, I'm logging off immediately.

Farewell, my comrades-it's been quite a trip.

2. Seems like you're feeling contrite. Perhaps you should re-think
your position and decide to stay?

7. Don't do this!
You are making a huge mistake! God alone can only count the people I have hurt - but do I run away? No.

Please stay. You are valued and needed.

Khash.

9. No! Please don't go!
I understand that you feel bad about hurting your friend, but as others have said, plese think about it. Maybe take a break. But don't decide right now when you are still feeling the effects of what happened last night.

:loveya: :hug:

10. Don't you dare do this, Ron.
I absolutely will not honor your request to ask a mod to deactivate your account.

If you do this, I will track you down and get redneck on your Alabama ass. Take a break if you need to, but if DU loses you because you regret something you said to me, that eagle just won't fly, my friend.

:hug:

He tried to make me sleep in the wet spot, that's all.

He understands his place in bed now.

what does DU have to do with that?



I take it that he has "come" to his senses and has rethought his "position"?

11. Once you leave, you can't come back.
Apparently that's a new DU policy.

Seriously - just take some time off, but DO NOT ASK FOR YOUR ACCOUNT TO BE SHUT DOWN - you can't undo it!! Please!!!

14. Negatory on that, Mr Trucker
Pull to the side of the road for a while, but don't outright quit this highway, fraught with difficulty though it may at times be.

Can I have a 10-4?

15. Please don't go...
I have been tempted to leave also, but you must take the good with the bad. Democrats are right on in some areas, and totally missing the point in others, dont' leave because of issues surronding that...dont' go....please...:(

18. Glad to hear it.
It's always good to cut down for a while, I myself spend a lot of time now playing Urban Dead instead of getting pissed off at what happens.

At least for now, I too am taking an outrage breather.

20. Guess now I have to send you that nekkid picture, huh?
:P


Glad you are back. Very glad.

Take care of yourself. Put that above all else. If a DU break is part of that process, so be it. Between me and you, I've found that the wonderful friends we have here keep the light on for you no matter how long you are away.

26. Where's the usual chorus of "Don't let the door hit you on your way out"?
We usually get a charming handful from those pigs too...

This is a good thing. They don't want you to go either. :hug:


Neither do I. :hug: :hug:

You've always been completely nice, and I'm sorry about what happened.

We all have to stick together. We'll see you when you're ready.
