Goodbye Gentoo and Friends

AutoBot · l33t Joined: 22 Apr 2002 Posts: 968 Location: Usually Out

I'm sad to say this, but things beyond my control have left me with no choice but to abondon gentoo for an undetermined amount of time. I just wanted to come here and thank everyone for their generosity, unconditional help, and showing me that a group of people can come together in one place and discuss a common interest all the while maintaining a high level of composure.

.: To all I know goodbye and goodluck

Good luck and may your absence from Gentoo be as brief as possible.

May those circumstances beyond your control see the error of their ways. You will always be welcomed and remembered here, Autobot.

It looks like a suicide note (!).

Please, don't do that! Think on your Gentoo Forums friends!

Out of curiosity, might I inquire as to what circumstances are beyond your control? Feel free to not answer.

Good enough. I was just curious if it was job related or something. Hope all turns out well for you.

Thanks kanuslupus.

That sucks. I'm sure you'll make a comeback sometime though. It'll be like MJ coming back for the Bulls.

Good luck with things!

Well, the first time he came back he won three championships in a row and retired again after hitting a championship winning shot. This most recent comeback is a joke to some people, but he's playing for the Wizards now - not the Bulls.

AUTOBOT!!! You're back! Holy cow. I'm stunned. I don't remember when you left, but you might remember me as Tristam29. Good to see you again. ;-)

For those who don't know AutoBot, I think at one time more than half of both the most viewd topics as well as the most active topics were started by AutoBot, this includes: CFLAGS Central and the original Gentoo Desktops --- What's Yours Look Like?, which are still the top two most viewed topics each with more than 100,000 views. I'm sure you're all aware the number of threads that Gentoo Desktops has spawned as well, but what you may not know is that combined those threads have been viewed almost 21 TIMES as many times as Guidelines (READ BEFORE POSTING)

Anyhow, the real question is are you here to stay? ;-)

All things that caused me to leave the community have gotten better, I never quit gentoo as it is one of the things that give me joy. I'm back, not in full swing yet but definitely not going anywhere.

Good to hear from you masseya, I were wondering who you were but now I know.
