In Ayn Rand's book "Atlas Shrugged," some thing is said to the effect of what would Atlas do if the world became too heavy for him to bear? He would SHRUG! So, I'm shrugging...
I'm gonna blow this scene for a while. May be a week, may be a year, may be forever. Who knows? Reality has set in...I put strike one as the whole "Al" situation...a valued member of the community leaves and nothing is done to get him back. Strikes two and three? Doesn't matter. The damage is done, I know what happened, and so do the parties involved. 'Nuff said.
I can still be caught on the IM or e mail. I'm planning on making the Duke's meet, and I wanna get something together to go up to the W B and smack some ricers down. And there is always Somerville and such...
Hopefully now I can get back to my T Type, which has set way too long. And there is always stuff to do on the AMX...
Keep 'em flying...
EDIT: Looks like I won't be making the Duke's meet. I work on Sundays. Weren't meets held on Saturdays? Oh well, par for the course! :evil:

i am sure there is more to the story than that. dunno what all happened, but it's a shame to lose anyone who contributes on a daily basis. that's the stuff that keeps forums alive.

I don't know you so this can't be personal. BUT, I find it extremely silly that because of the situation between other people someone would leave a board regardless of their particular situation.
If you feel that is the right thing to do then adios amigo.
As for AL I have no idea what happened, but it would appear he isn't around either. See ya guys around maybe...

i searched for posts made by al, and i don't see anything even remotely close to a farewell address. i know al personally, and i find it hard to believe he left because of a difference of opinion. he was here from day one, you know.

Jim:
You won't find some (if not all) of the final posts because they were deleted shortly after posting. I said that it's a difference of opinion because it is in my opinion (I will send you a PM explaining why) and I personally don't feel that reopening the same sores over and over does anybody any good.

understood. however, maybe if you had let the posts stand for a few days (like tim and justin have done several times, closing the thread so it doesn't become some snow-packed mon ster) it might have answere some of the questions in people's heads right now. much easier to answer a question once than 400 times. sure, at some point in the future you may have to answer the question for someone who hasn't been around in a dog's age (roncar), but for the most part people can see with their own eyes what went down and there would be no questions.
just a suggestion. oh, and blame it on bob, he started this. :mrgreen:
i'm sure i will get al on the phone within the next coupla days. are those posts deleted, as in gone forever, or is there an archive some where?
...post are possibly in forum 34..... (the area 51 of NJFBOA.org)
and as for what happened.... im lost as well. someone can feel free to PM me with details

Please don't turn this into a "What happened to Al" thread. If you wanna know what happened, talk to Tim and talk to Al. They were the only two directly involved.
End of discussion.

someone get this crap off the board then. If jokes aren't acceptable a.k.a. my joke towards al that was deleted, and no one has the balls to say what happened then just delete this thread as it apparently has no use other then for Bob to leave and cause everyone else to wonder why.
This was one of the biggest issues at ls1.com when we all used to hang out then internet drama emerged with shop wars and back stabbing and double talk. End it now before it gets ugly in here.

It's not a question of balls. It's a question of not continually picking at an open wound. Al left due to a difference of opinion regarding acceptable behavior on here. There is still bad blood about it (on both sides). I do not know who has been deleting posts on here, nor do I give a rat's ass. What I do care about is keeping the damn drama to a minimum so that we can all hang out on here without acting like a bunch of 12 year olds.
This thread is going nowhere. If you guys feel like discussing the Al situation further, take it to PMs please.
