Well if you think it's right, do whatver you please. BB is still a hobby of every single one of us, and, as it is with hobbies, no obligation.
 
So, Al, whatcha changing your name to? Since you made a thread about your name, I think it's only fair to tell! :wink:

Always and forever,
Randiann
 
See ya Buddy, and take care, i'll be dropping my own news in a little bit, i'm not stealing your thunder, i swear. 🙂 Stay cool, man. 🙂
 
Bye bye BotD.

We will miss you and your fantastic turn of phrase (still laughing about lady wings - that, my friend, will stay with me until the day I die!)

If you are really going, sorry we couldn't keep you amused any longer. May you have fun and debate wherever you go 🙂
 
Perhaps he's going to jail, and not country club jail but old school USSR jail with no net access.

Maybe's he's broke after being so charitable and can't afford his taxed net services?

As said, Bored is the giving type....maybe he's going on a missionary retreat or something... going off the grid so to speak.

What I don't get is why he said boredom was at the forefront for his desire to leave, yet wishes he could stay.

What does that mean?

I'm guessing that means that either he wishes this place was more entertaining for his netscapedes (doubt it, this place is awesome, and if that is indeed the case don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out)

....or he wishes his real life to be so busy and exciting he has no free time with all of his adventures to log on. This seems to me more likely with the way he got all preachy upon his return about living life. (My first exposure to BotD)

Truth is all things in moderation. Its nice to have adventure, but its nice to come home as well, both your actual home and usual haunts. I think/hope he might be back once he does leave.

He must have many things to pack, as he's not gone yet. 😉

So this (see quote belove) means it´s (one of) the main reson(s)? I thought it meant roughly the same as "the bottom of the list". Which in my eyes DON`T mean one of the main reasons. I need to improve my english skills...

Bordem is at the bottom of all this.

It's an expression really, like "lets get to the bottom of this" as in the meaning reason.

Yes. It means the "root" of the thing concerned, not the least important.
I Karma-ed (?) you my interpretaion...see above...
No better person to ask then BotD himself, though. *looks to see if suit cases are gone*

If he would have said boredom was his bottom most reason for leaving, I'd interpret it as you have. Instead I saw it as a bottom line or root cause or reason...like the bottom line in a vertical addition or subtraction question giving you the answer.

Interpretations are fun, i once had a buddy from Sweden on a morrowind site and we had a long conversation about toothpaste and what they call it where you are from and why it is not a product for gluing teeth. 🙂

The worlds a fun and funny place sometimes.

As far as BotD goes, I could be wrong, just guessing motives and what not. I hope where ever he settles he's happy.

lol. Never thought of toothpaste actually. Thanks for that. And swedish is the most logic language in the world. :P And thanks for the explanation.
oh. you're leaving? I know I only talked to you a couple of times, but it's still sad 🙁

so...are you actually leaving or just restarting as a newbie?
 
Because I'm not trying to be mean, just cutesy.

In every board and forum I have ever been to, there is ALWAYS a topic where someone says their leaving and they mostly NEVER leave. I think it's just a way to get attention.

However, there are few that actually do leave, and I mean right after making the topic.
