Default Hey Guys, somewhat of a good bye

I gave notice that i was leaving the site Friday, and my mod status is gone. I am moving my base of operations elsewhere. I am not going to try and be an azz and say where, but i am sure if your really into the nitrous seen you will soon find out. We are not trying to burn any bridges here, just getting a fresh start. Anyway, I am almost positive I will not be staying away completely, but certainly a lot less, time will tell. For those that are wondering, I have just decided that the drama between myself and another must end. I just won't play the childish games any longer. This has been months in the making and admin and the other mods new basically that I was going to give up my mod position and work on my web site. If I can swing it, and if they will have me, we may be back as a sponsor, though some with great pull may see to it other wise. I don't know for sure. My car is coming along fine and have great plans for it to be the shop beater, lol. I surely will post about it when it hits the track hopefully in a few weeks. Here's my nitrous race seats (thread needs to have something n2o related to be legal tender, lol), yes I know, a picture ***** am I. See you guys around. By the way, many of you I truly regard as friends, and prob more than you realize. Chow

WHAT! I don't know what happened here but you have been a great help to me and many others on this site. I didn't even know there was any kind of problems between you and anyone else, you always came across as a pretty cool guy. I never spoke to you personally but through searches your posts have come in very handy. Hate to see you go. Keep me informed through PM as to what your going to do because you have been a great help!

Positive vibes to you, Robert. You've been a tremendous help to me with my system selection and installation. I know where you're coming from with the "had enough of the bs" feelings. Just departed another site for the same reasons.

For what it's worth, I'll never spend a nickel with "that guy". Good luck with the biz!

Robert, good luck with your new venture.
We all know your not "going away", its impossible. I'd guess to say that its easier to quit a bad crack habbit than quit posting here.

Robert,

Its a shame that it had to come down to this, you provide a lot of insight and help to a vast amount of people around here. I hope to see you back as a sponsor, as nick said, let us know if you need anything.

No Beer I am done here for now. There are things that are literally making me sick to my stomach. You have no idea what's really going on behind the scenes, but may be finding out real soon and not from me. Good luck, your going to need it, lol. Some have a lock on the site, and I am not in that club, so it's best for the site and myself to depart on good terms.

Hey guys, thanks truly for the warm replies, it does mean a tremendous amount to me. Maybe my time here wasn't in vain, lol. Like I said before, if your really into the nitrous game you will see me around elsewhere.
Later
Robert
