Hi guys, not really news or politics but given this is where I post most, I just wanted to say I will be taking a break from posting for a while, nothing sinister, I will be keeping my account open, I just have a lot of things going on just now that will require more of my time. Reason for posting this? To thank all you guys for your opinions, arguments and time over the last few months. It has been enjoyable and educational. Stay safe one and all and enjoy your life regardless what way your tree grows. Bye for now, peace, gbn X

Amazing sense of self importance!

Like anyone is even going to notice you've stopped posting? laugh

Where's he showing his self-importance?
This was originally posted in NP&E (where he usually posts, but Mods moved it here to the Lounge).

He (if you read it) actually thanks others - there's a first!

Good luck to him whatever he's doing.

My comment was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, mainly smile

Seemed a strange thing to me to announce you wouldn't be posting for a year... immediately struck me that no one would notice if I didn't! smile

Why do people do this?

Surely you just wouldn't log in?

Amazing sense of self importance as mentioned above,

What a cock. If you’re not going to post, don’t post; we really don’t care whether you post or not. Why the need to announce it. Cock.

Take care GBN, you will be missed beer





(Who is he?

And why has he signed off the post so effeminately with an X on a 99.9% male forum, and who says peace anymore... probably some Extinction Rebellion type who is off grid for a year flying drones at Heathrow biggrin)

Sounds like someone's off to India shoot tigers with a machine gun.

If you announce you’re not posting for a year (or whatever), do you then have to wait for a year till you read the well wishes and people saying they don’t care?
