I Think It's Time For Me To Retire
the recent events here have forced me to a decision that i really found difficult to make... but in the light of the recent senslessness i've witnessed on the General Forum, i must offer my regsignation to Neal as a forum admin here on the Subsim Indie board forum...
i can no longer in good conscience, continue to function in the capacity i once enjoyed... the forum seems to be changing for the worse, and i take very seriously the kinds of people i associate myself with... my contnued presence here would only serve as an unneccessary distraction to the entire forum, as i cannot stand by and watch what is going on here continue without commenting... to all the good skippers of which i've enjoyed company with... may the wind be at your backs, and may all your dives equal all your surfacings... permission to go ashore... --Mike |

Sorry to see ya go Mike. You've been big part of the place for a long time.
Frankly, my way of dealing with all the wearisome tit-for-tat postings lately is to just not respond or ignore them, but I realize not everyone can in good conscience. Hopefully, at some point in the future things will settle down again.

It is a shame that we lose a member .There has been a lot of trash posted recently.I just ignore all the political postings or just read them back to front-that is always an amusement to see how a topic drifted and who was responsible!

As i saw the post title i thought for a moment you are going to retire from developement
But well... Ahh, i remember some years ago, the nice discussions we had here with me, you, Manuel and Leif. All the inspiration and encouragement i got here. That were innocent times. But mostly i never look into the political discussions. To bussy with IUF. I would ignore that stuff and create my own nice little universe outside of it. What will be your main forum now, Mike ?

Mike I agree completely with what Neal has said...I also participated some time ago in many threads about islam, muslims, etc. in the general forum. But I got burnt when i saw I was was dedicating my currently very scarce free time to engage in discussions that where not really going anywhere....so I left that GT forum to those who can/want to discuss like that, and i'm still here, at the classics & indie projects forums. Please consider doing the same!
Subsim.com is still the best naval web around and a good part of that is owed to people like you...after all the Gt forum is in fact just purely accesory to subsim.com.

Visiting subsim does give one a vague idea of what it must have been like to come back to the states from Vietnam.

although i dont know you, i do wish you god speed and good luck on your future endevours.
in all likelyhood, its true WWII had to be fought. other than that... i find it ironic that poiliticians start wars in which they deem the when, who, and where to fight them, as long as it doesnt actually involve those same politicians to do the actual dying. thats what aggrivates me the most about politics. |

You're replying to a 5 1/2 year old thread. Think the man's long gone now.
