Time to call time and retire from being a mod …

[fat man]

wow you stay away for a few days and earth shattering things happen. Gareth in all my dealings with youre good self as a mod you have allways been fair minded and an all round decent chap , respect.

[Gareth W-B]

Now bugger off and stop milking it, you've had your 15 minutes of fame.

No !!! I've still got a day and a bit to go !!!

Well done for all your efforts-does this mean that you can start sarcastic threads moaning about the Moderators not responding to an enquiry within five minutes of posting a problem?

Seriously, I hope you enjoy your retirement from the madhouse G.

Many thanks to you and ALL the other lads that put the graft into keeping what is by far, THE best shooting forum in the known Universe

"So sad about us" the "Ace Face" has decided to retire It's "Time for Action" and to make sure the "Kid's are Alright" hope you have many "Lazy Sunday Afternoon's" keep the faith!

Thanks for wanting me to stay, Paul, but I really need the closure, as although I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a mod, I want to return to being an ordinary BBS member and air gun shooter, so I have no shaddow clouding the time I spend with my kids when I see them (the youngest is still only six, the oldest ten), as I'll not get this time again.

Point taken.

My very best regards - enjoy the time you have with your children.

Hi Gareth,

Problems with Poachers turning into Gamekeepers, is that gamekeeping is never as much fun as poaching. Thank you for your sensitive moderation during times of strife, and welcome back to the other side of the fence once again.

Welcome back

Cheers Lakey, am 'poaching' that fact from you as the theme for my post-mod signature.

I will officially step down at midnight on March 7th, at which point I will relinquish my key to the mods secret lounge bar, hand back my yellow cape and orange over-pants (reckon I’ll miss them, the most ??? ), give back my mod cyber tool box of special buttons, and return to being a regular BBS member.

Logging off now, next time I log on I'll be a BBS civilian. Thanks for everything.

So can we now start calling you an ugly old fat bugger? .

Welcome back to the other, other side .
