Farewell.
« on: April 17, 2011, 10:23:48 AM »
I have decided to depart these forums, I wish I could say that it was not due to feeling unwelcome among the FE community, but such is not the case.

I would however like to personally thank Lord Wilmore, hoppy, and John Davis as FE'ers that I can recall who have reached out to try and make me feel welcome while I was here, as well as a number of RE'ers as well.  If I missed your name and you were genuinely trying to be courteous, then I apologize, but this is contention and stress that I do not want nor need in my life right now and do not see a point in continuing to spend time with intentionally antagonistic people whom I will not bother to name at this time.

I wish you all well,
Farewell.

You argue your side well.  They are stronger with you than without you.

Thank you gotham, I should have listed you as well, but I was not thinking clearly when trying to remember those FE'ers to express my gratitude toward for trying to make me feel welcome.

If you are leaving because of me Oracle, I apologize If I caused you any emotional pain. I actually thought you were pretty cool guy. You even defended me few times against the haters, I appreciate it.

Sorry, I did not know where else it would seem more appropriate.  It isn't up for Debate, and it isn't really Q&A.

If there is somewhere else it should go, please feel free to move it appropriately.

To be honest, being called a Nazi did not win you very many points with me, but ultimately, no, it was not you.

Oracle, sure...you could leave, for a while. But all the while in the back of your mind you know that FE'ers are going to be making silly arguments about something ridiculous, and after a while it's going to bother you so much that you will need to return.  :P

I'm sorry... but no, I don't think I will... I'll hang around a bit to respond to this thread, but I think it is best for all considered if I just go my own way and not look back.  I will miss a lot of you, but there are a few elements I can certainly do without.

To be fair, I suppose I should also thank the following RE'ers:

Thevoiceofreason
I'm probably forgetting a few from here as well....please forgive me if I did not mention you specifically.

... I forgot to thank Roundy the Truthinessist above as one of the FE'ers who has shown me a considerable amount of patience and kindness.

No, I'm feeling unwelcome, and through that, I no longer feel enjoyment coming here and participating in any further discussions... that's why I'm leaving, I thought I made that clear up above.

Oracle you are cool. You'll be back after a short break.
 Your logic is usually good. And you can see both sides of the argument.
  Besides you have posted earlier somewhere that emotional wellbeing was better after coming here.

I appreciate your sentiment, but it has become painfully clear to me that certain FE'ers do not care for my continued presence here, and as such I wish to not cause any further strife.  I'm restricting myself to this thread alone, and only for a relatively short time at that in order to say goodbye to those who made my time here interesting and memorable.

I will say this, I have at least learned to respect the outlooks of people who hold an opinion that is vastly different than what is commonly held by those currently in the majority, and I do thank you all for that insight as well as the education on debating in general.  I have in fact learned quite a lot since coming here, but alas, I still remain unconvinced that the earth is indeed flat, I however, still respect your position that it is.

I think you may be confusing him with one of those that wants to make people feel welcome to TFES.

PizzaPlanet is actually one of those that would rather see me leave, and is vigorously encouraging me to do so.
