It is apparently time to move on. So I will be leaving this place (this is where you all jump up and down in the club house and cheer).
I must truely be an omnious figure to instill so much greif. Well not for long. I shall soon be away.
No need to inflict myself on those I love.
It's not fair to them.
If we meet on the other side, we can pretend not to know each other.
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Don't know if I'm missing something here, or what's been happening over the last month, but I for one will miss you if you go, Marc. You can still talk to me whenever you want to. I hope we can remain friends. It is not often that you meet someone who has an oppinion that is often opposite your own but still stated with intelligence, humor, sensativity and yet a fearlessness for seeking the truth. You've challenged me to re-evaluate some of my own positions on issues in the past and reminded me that there are some things I hadn't considered yet. And for that, I value you, as well as for your courage and constancy. I might never know exactly what it is you are going to say, but I always know that you'll speak from your heart, even if sometimes you let that emotion come out without taking a second to control it. You've always been direct and honest, and you've never backed down from helping someone if you could. For that I am thankful. So even if you leave here, you are still family to us all. Do take care of youself and those you love, my brother, and if we see each other on the other side, don't be shy about coming over to shake my hand.

I think everyone knows that I neither ask people to stay nor ask them to leave [an exception was made in the case of abusive behaviour by one person in the past]. I have done neither of the above in this case, not myself, nor through anyone else.
I am saddened when a friend leaves and overjoyed when a friend arrives. I respect their right to come and go as they please. I will not stand in the way of Marc's leaving, though it saddens me. I will not overtly welcome him back should he do so. But I will do it quietly in my heart.
Peoplke come here because of th eissues they have to deal with, and they leave when either those issues are bearable or they decide this is not the reight place for them.
But, when all is said and done it is only a messageboard. It is nothing special.

Au contraire, mon frer. And I think we all know it.

uh, that post was about Timmy saying that this is JUST a messageboard. It is and it isn't. It's family.

You shouldn't leave.
Despite the fact that i don't get attached to people, i wish you wouldn't go. Your ideas are not like those of most people here. You're very intelligent and you add something different, and basically say what i think, but do it much better than i would.
You shouldn't let the people here have so much (if any) influence over you or your actions. Maybe you haven't and it's just time for you to leave, i really don't know. Do what you want, and if it coincides with what others want, that's cool and if not that's cool too. But i wouldn't base my decision on the opinion of a few.
So, if you do decide to leave/take a break or whatever, it'd be nice if you came back, but don't do it because i'd like it (not that you would).
