I've off to be a lurker, deleting my account after considerate thought, some people I've met on here are great people, some arseholes ..waits for witty reply or thread to be locked. Goodbye;)

Yakult

Why delete as opposed to just not posting anymore?

ballsacky

Good luck lad.

Saila

closed =/= to deleting... just sayin

MrStuffins

I hope youve been out on the drink, come home and done this and tomorrow think "sh*te"

No one gives a sh*t dude. And thats not me being a pr*ck.
You could have 30,000 posts on here and the attitude would be the same.

Not entirely true, if TheZohan or someone like that went a lot of people would notice and a lot of people would care. Just look at when Hagar left, there were a good number of annoyed people.

True, but then you too were one of the trio.. Zohan, Doc.B & Laila Miniature Icebox - The Golden Era of AH moderating.

You'd all be missed.

And minidazzler - I'd miss reading his posts in a Cork accent!.

Still time for a bit of attention whoring though eh?

RachaelVO

Oh FFS, it's like when people sign outta FB for a short while, and the come back and wonder why no one missed em.

You looking for an Oscar to go along with all that Melodrama???:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I know a woman (yes....a woman...she's about 41) who did that. Gave us all the massive "Facebook is stealing my privacy and my free time" speech. She's one of these militant animals rights heads and never shuts up with the self-righteous ranting. She posted up there more than anyone else I knew. Made a massive hoo-ha about it...2 months later, she's back and is posting more than ever...

Yeah Boards really ground to a halt over that one, didn't it.

They always come back in the end... just a bit of melodrama to try and keep people guessing, when in reality there's nothing to guess!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drama Queens the lot of em!

wnolan1992

Ah don't leave! You're great craic!

stovelid

The admins should make it a rule that if you return after closing an account, you have to have a stupid name and avatar for six months: like a Hugh Hefner one for feminist posters or a Justin Bieber one for muso types.

Yeah but it would be shortlived. Things move on, people get forgotten...

true that.
some do it because of how they feel at a certain time or because they have a lot of long term pressures on,but many are just drama queens- unless are someone who is a very public figure like board staff,or are someone who has got a serious amount of friends on a forum,it does feel like wanting to be the centre of attention,have personaly always took breaks or left forums without making any announcement.

speaking in general,the more manipulative of online communities just reregister anyway to watch their drama unfold and keep their belief of self importance going and/or to play a different identity.

Ya get sick of stuff, I get that, I just don't go on, during the summer I wasn't on either Boards or FB, was out with my kids instead, but I didn't do the drama of saying I was signing out, I knew I'd eventually go back to both, so I just stopped loggin in. Simple really!

Who's TheZohan?

stupidusername

who the feck is Hagar?

there's a few posters that you'd miss if they stop posting altogether and others you wish would just fudge off already. tbh tubsandtiles, while I recognise the name as a poster, I don't have any memorable posts or impressions to tie you to.

Ta ta biotch.

Turtyturd

Meh, the whole fanwankery over certain posters on here is a bit ridiculous. Especially since half of it is done in the hope of getting a name check in return.

Son Of A Vidic

So the OP is going to close their account and be a lurker.

That's a bit like saying I'm going to get rid of my car and watch other people drive instead.........Why?

Either go or stay ffs!
