A great injustice would be done to the Asylum if you were to actually leave. So I'm counting on the fact that Jestah's been around longer than I have and he knows the scoop.

I do hope that VP chooses to come back at some point. From my point of view, I'm going to think of him as just taking a break. I'd hate to think it's a permanent break.

Take care VP.

You aren't going anywhere, VP! I will hound you at eyeball design if you go...we need you!

DO NOT GO!!!

Please.

Take a couple of deep breaths, and realize, that you are part of this forum, in more ways then you know. After all, who's going to mop up?

Take a break? Certainly...why not. But actually leave? *rumages through contract material* Here it is! The original agreement for entry into the Asylum *points at fine print* 'You may check out anytime you like, but you can never leave...'....

Why is that printed on the back of an Eagles Album?

Hey VP, it aint worth leaving over, after all we are just a bunch of alphanumeric characters on here, there are some people that will get on others nerves here and make ya mad, but look at it this way. You dont have to put up with 'em in real life, if ya turn off ya screen they dissapear, ya got a lot to contribute here your works great, but if ya decide to go, good luck in whatever ya do.

Sorry to see you go VP. I can understand how some TCPIP people can be frustrating, mostly because you cant reach across the internet and smack them when they all but beg for it. I have no love for him either but I figure he will change or leave, and so it goes. Isnt there a BBS program with an 'ignore' feature? Maybe we can get you some peril senstive suglasses adjusted to black out when certain people post... Just take some time, cool your head and maybe when you get the urge to peek back in the problem will have resolved itself.

I've seen several old members retiring and then coming back, so I don't really know how to take this... For now, I hope you're just taking a break. You will be missed either way.

vp: I'm saddened to hear this and I do hope it is a temporary leave of absence (I do quite like Wakkos' idea though).

I also hope that some people have learned that their actions actually have consequences - you just aren't spewing these words out into a void there are actually people here. Most of us are here to learn and discover new things (and blow of a little steam occasionally - although some people seem more focus on the latter which could do with changing) and they don't want to have to waste their precious time running around cleaning up after people who seem not to be able to understand some very basic things.

I can't imagine there are many people here who's intention it is to ruin the Asylum but there are people certainly going about things in a way that could bring the walls down.

So what do we do? Sit around bitching and whining or lead by example.

So:

1. Make a sig - Suho1004 has come up with a great topic this month.

2. Get involved in the RP - it looks to be an interesting one this week.

3. Review a site.

4. Get invovled in the 5k challenge down in the HTML forum.

5. Drop into one of the other 'work' forums and do something constructive/creative.

Still here?? Go on now shooo.....

If you truly leave this will be marked as a day of sorrow in the Asylum history books. But lets hope that the old say stays true: "You may check out anytime you like, but you can never leave..."

I have to add my voice to all these here, vp, if not to change your mind then at least to add to the positives you can take from your time here. You've got the skills, you've got the personality. I've always enjoyed reading what you've got to say, and if you do go, you'll be missed.
