I've been here for a long time. But now, I'm afraid it's time for me to go. There are several reasons why I must go, but I won't post them here. Goodbye, and thanks for a great time. As for the EV Empire, I guess I'll be giving that up too. Drop me an e-mail and if you want to take it over.

Well, that's rather sudden. I'd like to know why you are leaving -- if you feel like sharing with me, feel free to email me, since you don't seem to be too willing to post why here.

As for being here too long, that's BS -- I've been here 6 or so years. Newbie.

And I 5 years, give or take. I havn't been here damn long enough.

This really, really bites. Skyblade is gone, macavenger is gone, spl_cadet is gone, and now insano? This board is dying... fast...

If not for my charisma, popularity and genius, I doubt anyone would be here anymore at all.

I knew about Skyblade being somewhat "not here", but have Macavenger and spl_cadet thrown in the towel? I must have been blinking when that happened, as I don't remember it...

Obviously, I haven't been here enough.

Insano, if you wouldn't mind telling me why you're leaving, I'd certainly be interested in knowing. Send me an e-mail (starkiller@ev-nova.net).

6 years? Now that's BS. Unless you were here before EV was released.

Next month ( I forget the exact date) will be the sixth anniversary of EV's release. The board was not started until some time after that, but was well established by September of 1996 when I first started visiting.

Well, neither officially left, but neither have posted in many, many days.

Two days isn't many many days. I might be posting here less, but I do post on B&B; and Just Chat.

I don't think someone like Macavenger would leave unannounced... perhaps he is away for a little while or something. Don't panic!!!

Oh bloody hell, I've got bad memory, leave me alone. Besides, I didn't mark it down when I joined -- it's not like I knew at the time what a life-altering experience that would be. No joke -- I've sat down and thought out how EV has influenced my life. I created my first website for EV, learned rudimentary HTML on the WWW Board (the spider owns you...), and became more mac-proficient because of my tinkering with plugins... I'd hate to think of who, more like what, I would be otherwise.

Anyway, it appears that I have been around for 5 and a half years (or so, leave me alone). Still a hell of a long time, considering that I have been here for (more or less) 35% of my life.

But... Insano gone... who are we going to beat up, chop into little pieces, and feed to the racing ducks?

Good bye. Live long and prosper.

I wish I had joined the boards earlier; it's hell being considered a newbie by old farts- er, senior citizens - like EVula.

Get your terms straight, newbie.
EVula is a senior citizen of the boards.
I'm an old fart.

Cut me a freakin' break, people, my 19th birthday is coming up in less than a week (the 17th, yipee), I don't need to be called a senior citizen!

Forget it EVula. You're a legal adult now. Welcome to the eldest 35% of the board's population (thanks to everyone participating in the Census). I guess you're still in the lower-part of the upper-age bracket and the term old-fart doesn't apply. Does TOP still take the prize for being the eldest EV player ever?

As for my part in the community... I make pretty pictures for plugins that are never going to see the light of day. Yeah. That's it. But that will change because I WILL finish NR and it does have a little bit of my work in it.

That's probably true...

I've been rather busy in the real world and with some other stuff of late. But since that looks to be settling down soon, and Nova will probably be out within a couple of weeks at most, I might show up a little more often again soon.

Well, goodbye, Insano...I never really got to know you particularly well, but I wish you well on whatever else you must go to do.

Heh, some people have been here for six years...I've been here for about 10 months, total. Yeah, I'm a newb, as if that wasn't obvious.
