Goodbye DU

[bpilgrim]

Boy I never thought I would be saying those words but I have been told in no uncertain terms that i am unwanted around here by the admins so I am leaving.

It has been a great experience for me being here and I think I can be proud of my tiny contributions over the years and I am especially thankful for all the wonderful people I have met on this virtual community who I have learned a great many things from which I will never forget.

Anyways, don't worry... the INTERNETs are a big place so I am sure there is room for me out there somewhere, I'll see y'all round the bend :hug:

and never forget...

Thank GORE, he 'invented' the INTERNETs!

peace out

1. That's a shame...

Though I didn't always agree with you, you never failed to bring an educated and interesting insight to whatever topic was being discussed. Hopefully you'll reconsider.

[Sammy Pepys]

17. What happened?

Whatever happens...good luck.

[ShortnFiery]

29. I hope you reconsider also, but understand - in a way

I need to also beat feet for the Greens in my local area, instead of this Keyboard Warrior stuff. I'm hoping to fit in both, but I understand your desire to move on. I'll miss you. :hi:

[ClassWarrior]

2. Why?

Why have you been asked to leave?

NGU.

[Catherine Vincent]

3. Is this a joke?

:-(

[Texasgal]

4. I am so sorry to hear this..

Please check your PM.

Good luck to you! :hug:

5. seeing how you posted, i would say it is no uncertain terms. you are

still posting. if they didnt want you, you wouldnt be posting, i assure you. this is your choice. i am guessing

[bpilgrim]

12. i was threatened that if i raised a topic with the admins once more they

would banned me.

i just raised it again via pm with skinner.

i am highly offended at being called a thief and was trying to solve that dispute but have been ignored accept to be threatened.

peace

[seabeyond]

15. dont do it, or do it..... and reap reward or repercussions

your choice. i think i know what you are talking about. i am not on sides here. i dont see a need to challange anyone on your issue. i know why you are offended i know how the other party preceives it. this is your choice.

[Rose Siding]

You could always just stop raising the topic

[bpilgrim]

25. being called a THIEF by the admins and being threatened with banning

is more than i can take.

anyways, i am at work and i am outta here.

peace

[bpilgrim]

22. I love you, too, seemslikeadream

:hug:

peace

7. Usually when the administrators don't want you here

You get banned. So maybe you should stick around until they finalize the decision for you.

(I have no idea what this is all about, by the way)

[derby378]

8. Aw, HELL, no!!

Please don't go! You're needed desperately around here.

Maybe just take a few weeks off and let things cool down a bit.

I admit I don't know the whole story, but you're a real asset to DU.

[helderheid]

9. don't go.

Just don't.

[Mr_Spock]

10. I never get these posts...

I get annoyed at DU once in a while, but losing perspective based on a couple of misunderstandings or your own stubborness, and then complaining about it, makes no sense to me.

11. Don't let the bastards grind you down

13. You're still posting, so it can't be all that bad...n/t

[kentuck]

14. Just take a break bpilgrim...

we need you here man.

[mdmc]

16. peace and low stress

:patriot:

[seabeyond]

19. i personally chose no stress, lol wink..... n/t

[hlthe2b]

18. You've been a great long term contributor....

I'd hate for us to lose you. If you can, how about taking a few days for the emotions to wane...
It might not change whatever the original disagreement, but perhaps you'll feel that you can put it aside and move forward?

[BlooInBloo]

20. I personally don't see how people can take the internet so seriously...

... but apparently they do...

Peace out.

[Sydnie]

30. That's what they said about radio and tv back in the day too n/t

[greyl]

21. oh waaaah.

See ya.

[lpbk2713]

23. Buh-bye.

[Festivito]

24. Why, because you LIE, about Gore? Plus: No links? No reasons?

Gore said "in creating" not "invented".

So, thank Gore for his work IN CREATING the Internet, Bush's* Internets. (An rightfully so. Gore did a great job. Wish he were more in charge.)
Get it right, at least in a last post.

I have found the admins to be unflinchingly tolerant and unfailingly fair.

PM me if you can't post it. I'd be happy to give my ideas on it. After returning from my swim.

Have fun, wherever.

28. Sarcasm is lost on you today

Perhaps it's the circumstances, but BP was definitely being sarcastic with that comment.

[MadHound]

26. Hey, take care of yourself, OK

And don't let the shit get you down. Sorry to here that you've been cracked down on, but there are other options out there, alright. I'll see you around, it isn't that large a 'net:hug:

[Sydnie]

27. Aw shit! Say it isn't so.

I support you in what ever you choose, but damn it ... don't go. You have inspired so often and you will leave a hole if you do.

Many here are familiar with the situation and don't think you have done anything wrong.

Is it so far fetched that more than one person could have the same type of inspiration at the same time? I guess some think it is.

bpilgrim .... :grouphug:

[Skinner]

31. Locking

See ya.
