Firstly, to the guys who have left, or have thought about leaving due to drama. You are being so childish doing this. All you do when leaving is give the "enemy what they want", and leaving a website from difference of opinion over the INTERNET is ludicrous! Ignore the stupid people, thats what you do in real life is it not? You dont just move towns because of one or a few people do you?
Now for you Colonel. I love your posts, what you bring to this forum, your wonderful insights on things, but seriously? You are going to leave because you feel you have talked about Avatar to much? Run out of things Avatar related to talk about? So what, are you really going to leave over something so trivial? If you read the posts in this thread it is obvious that this community adores you, we have a great respect for you, and do not want you to leave. Here is something to think about, any forum has a specific topic, however I understand that you can always become "drained" of the topic, but this is what the off topic forum is for! When you make friends like we have here why leave them all? Take a break if you want, you are going on a trip so use that to clear your mind. When you come here though you dont need to talk about nothing but Avatar, you can discuss anything!
Colonel, with your friends in real life, when you start running out of things to talk about on a certain subject do you just pick everything up a leave? No, you likely change the subject to something else interesting, why not do that here? Why leave all your friends, does the thought not sadden you? As someone else said, unless coming here makes you depressed than maybe I see your point.
I will ultimately respect any desicion you choose to make, however, making a move like this will also change the way I have viewed you since I first met you. As it did with the other users that have left. I apologize if this has offended anyone, but I am tired of just sitting back with my mouth shut.
I wish you the best,
John M.
