The previous and separate threads we had, the welcome and departures thread, were used almost interchangeably at times, so we decided to merge their functions into one.

If you're new here, please introduce yourself! Tell us about yourself, and what brought you here. We're glad to have you. ^_^

For those taking a break for whatever reasons (vacation, lack of internet, personal, etc), let us know so we won't worry about you!

And for those leaving for good; we're sorry to see you go, but we wish you well nonetheless. Here's where you can say your goodbyes.

Is that a Beatles reference? Because I read the title and now I gave Hello Goodbye stuck in my head.

That's like asking if this thread's title is a Beatles reference, except going way more generic.

Soooo, my Computer died, also life is crazy busy until start of October. So I might not make it quite that often to the forums. Thought I'd let you know. Take care, 'till October - I hope to be back in full force by then. :nyao:

I decided to visit this place again on a nostalgic whim, so I figured I'd post in here.

I'm still alive (though Harvey might have something to say about that) and starting real life on September 25. Sorry to hear about NemZ, he was a good guy. May he rest in peace. I don't intend to stick around for very long, but I figured I ought to post this in order to assure any interested parties (particularly if anyone from the notorious Skype group is still around) that my departure was simply a result of getting busy with things and moving on. Hope everybody is doing well. Take care.

I'm still around in the shadows (i.e. lurking). I kinda made my peace about this site a long time ago, but I don't feel compelled to post that much really. Always a PM away if anyone wants to talk to me though.

TBH I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the only one in the group that still posts here.

Harvey's been scary but all is (mostly) well in our neck of the woods, so far. It lasting until about Wednesday is stressful.

I've been lurking or posting every so often, but I might properly return when Final's out (still calling it that because it's easiest :tongue: ). I'm honestly still pretty sad about NemZ...I hope you all are looking after yourselves :heart:

I still have my Twitter if y'all need to contact me :asuka_thumbsup:

Ah, I myself am quite new to this place, so I never encountered him, but I have read some of his posts etc. Seemed like a great guy, and a real asset to the forum. Sad to hear about what happened...

On a lighter note, I've also come across many of your posts, SSD. In addition to what you wrote in the FGC Commentary. All great stuff :thumbsup: . I'm glad that you're still hanging around; looking forward to seeing you!

P.S. Love the avatar.

The infamous skype group still exists, no forum war anymore though, thankfully. I'll tell them the reason for your departure anyway.

It's an odd thing how the original gifsound brigade skype group transmogrified into a monarchist right wing skype group. The only other active members from there who even comes on here would be Donut and Kaz, of course CAP still lurks around here too :wink: . That's enough of that, not the place to discuss this kind of thing, if any new guys wants that kind of history they're better off PM'ing me or someone else who is an old member on here.

Auf wiedersehen, rober.

Also, this threads already got out to a pretty nice start. I know I've never been the most prolific poster here, but I've been here quite a while now and it's cool to hear from some of the older users. Hopefully some of my other favorite users who don't post here anymore pop into this thread sometime soon...

Feeling like I might leave for good this time. I know I always say that but things in my life need to go up for me in order to not feel all the time like I would rather kick the bucket sooner than when nature intends. Nothing personal against any of you, it's time for me to move on!

Much love,
Gus
