    It is with some sadness that I've decided to pull the plug on my account.

    I've been associated with STW since 2005 /6 I guess, barring the great crash of 2008.

    All in all its been a great experience with one or two exceptions. It particularly erks that a lot of people have left over the years but I guess that a lot of forums develop and, in the eyes of some, mature to the point approaching a police state. Sad really, it was the sites anarchic nature and devil-may-care attitude that drew a lot of us to STW and indeed the forum.

    To all the great people I've met on here I say thanks and goodbye

    Stay safe out there.

    Thanks

    TS

    I think that you'll find that it is actually 'irks' and not 'erks'.

    Bye TS. Always liked your humour.

    Why not post up some really crazy shit and get a life ban? When I go that's what I'm doing.

    wasn't it an interest in MTB'ing?

    Ah, we haven't had a flounce for a while.

    Posted 8 months ago #

    Pretty tame flounce.

    Needs much more angst and general navel gazing, as though STW were somehow important.

    3/10.

    ... Or is it just ennui?

    Life is like a sewer, isn't it?

    ...

    What you get out of it depends on what you put into it.

    You have to be able to imagine "flounce" in a northern irish accent. I can't even begin to type it phonetically.

    Why not start your own fora that are slightly anarchic with a devil may care attitude? Gandhi said be the change you wish to see!!

    As it's Pink Floyd Night:

    Goodbye, cruel world
    I'm leaving you today
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    Goodbye, all you people
    There's nothing you can say
    To make me change my mind
    Goodbye

    I guess that a lot of forums develop and, in the eyes of some, mature to the point approaching a police state. Sad really

    Been here for the same time, longer in fact, and I can't say I've exactly noticed the rise of a "police state" much.

    Oh well. Cheerio tankslapper

    now that would be a pity, TS, you've always been a positive poster. Unlike some.

    Don't go out with a whimper, go with a bang! There must be some people on here that you'd like to tell what you think of them before you ask the mods to bozo your account.

    Simon ralli.... It was 'seek' not 'see'....but other than that, +1 for your sentiments.

    Posted 8 months ago #
  29. sc-xc - Member

    Oh, and TS... I hope you stick around. There's a few Internet heroes that taint this site. **** 'em. If their lives revolve round being here 24/7 then good luck to them. Recent posts have made me realise they are sad **** with **** all else going on I their lives. I like your style, and have enjoyed your presence round these parts, hope to see you stay.
