It is truly amazing how people can fall back into old habits and the same old psychological traps... after something like one year, i've found myself spending more and more time on the forum and with WITP... unfortunately, i have other obligations that i have been neglecting because of this, so i must abruptly curtail my involvement with the forum... i've allowed myself in the past to visit and read the forum, and post in selected areas, but over time this has become general... i must once again forgo the forum.
As i have made a commitment, i will continue to play in Threadwar, but will no longer post in the BOB forum and will conduct the game strictly through e-mail.
Sorry to hear that, Robert. Hope you'll come back sometime...
Maybe we should stop at the end of page 998, and let Brother Faber do the honors of fabering our way to page 1000, for the last Classic incarnation of THE THREAD!!! [:D]
