Well, as some of you may know some time ago I quit playing. As of last month I closed my last account. My interest in UO seems to have dried up again and I'm finding my interests pulled in different directions. Although I had planned on sticking around here and remaining on staff, I have decided to retire my staff badge. I'm finding myself logging in less and less each day and Petra and Magdalene have done such a fine job assembling a great set of moderators that problems are usually taken care of before I even hear about them.

I'll still pop in from time to time to say hello and check up on UO. Who knows what may happen down the road, I just may be back someday. Until then, TTFN.

Best of luck and keep in touch. :)

And another one bites the dust!
May you have fair winds and a following sea in all your new endevers.

I seem to recall you best by a Futurama avatar (no?), haha. You were always a fair mod in my opinion, and it's definitely weird to see an oldie like you leave the fold completely.

I doubt you and Pinco can stay away from UO.
Ah, didn't remember Pinco quitting. No wonder the high res is taking so long, EA trying to hire him :).

Thanks for the well wishes everyone, it means a lot to me. I've met some great people during my time here and will surely miss you folks as well. But I won't be away for ever. I don't think it's even possible. It might just be a rumor, but I hear that if you read the source code for UO backward you'll realize it's actually a magic spell that makes us all addicted for life.

Thanks for all your hard work. There'll always be a place for you here.
Thanks Syrus. I'm sure that if/when I come back I'll be offering my help to Stratics again. Since I started UO back in 2000 Stratics has always been a big help to me. If I can help repay that by volunteering here I certainly will.

Thanks pal. I'm going to continue to wear my WWKD bracelet as a constant reminder of what I learned from you.
1) Cats are awesome
2) Don't poke big dogs with pointy sticks
3) Flutter may be evil, but she makes awesome cookies
4) If you have a problem that you're not sure you can fix that means you need to approach it more like a Texan.

Argh! Good luck partner! Hope to see you pop in once in a while.
I've taught you all I know my young Padawan. All you need to do to complete your training is to slay Kelmo in armed combat.
Good luck with that one. *snickers*

I'm in denial about this so Hi! :p
Airmid, you never fail to make me laugh. Here's something to help you out with the transition. :D

Who will be mean to me while you're gone?
I'll still be mean to you, it's in my nature.
Oh, wait. I mean I was never mean to you.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. If anyone wants to keep in touch and doesn't want to wait for me to post here, you can add me on facebook. Just let me know who you are when you send a request so I don't ignore it. For some reason I keep getting random requests for Ukrainian women looking for a husband and middle eastern guys trying to sell me authentic Nykee sneakers. It's kinda weird...

I think he might have been in the senior citizen guild at one point... maybe that's the guild Phangs is talking about.
