I'm still leaving. Don't try and stop me. I am deleting all my PMs.

There's nothing anyone can say that will make me stay.

Absolutely nothing.

You know what? I think I left my wallet here somewhere, so I'd better go look for it before I go.

And then I'm gone for good.

I mean it.

I think there are some posts that I wanted to make that I forgot to make, so I'm going to post those before I leave.

Still haven't found my wallet. Has anyone seen it?

That reminds me, I want to check out a few more of those quizzes, and then I'm gone, I swear.

Oops. I almost forgot that I left my lunch in the WP break room fridge.

:lol: I suppose procrastination is always a good excuse for still being around a year after having said one would leave.

you can't go if you are not here.

You left ages ago and I thought you were not back :? Then TM1 sort of left and I'm gone too (don't let my posts fool you, I'm not really here).

I wondered why WP always looks so deserted. It's because everybody's left. :P

Oh, and I just need to train my replacement, and then I'm gone.

Well, if you ever manage to get 500, 1000 or more members on your site(though I doubt you will because it does not have a name people are likely to notice), you might start to realise how difficult it can be for a single admin to control such things... I am sure it is a good idea for you to have your own forum, it might give you some idea of the level of responsibility involved on a forum of this size.

Mainly it's for attention, or they think the site is run poorly and want to make a stand.

Autistic Action? Aspergers Action? It depends what you want really...do you want to attract others with aspergers only? IF so, you need to include aspergers in the title and think of something interesting and eye catching to go around it. Aspergian Antics? You get some idea...But bear in mind, Unknown, that you are much more likely to attract problems if you Cuss all over the place like you do here, as your members will then think that anything goes and will test their boundaries to see how far they can go before they get banned etc...
