Letting the bag out of the cat, and the hat out of the rabbit

So it's been three long years here on Gamespot, and I'm afraid that my time has reached the inevitable. Yes, I'm taking my coat and hat and walking away. I always said I had to do it, but now well I'm doing it. I guess the only real union I am in is the SKS so I'll be addressing this to those who inhabit that union. I am sorry I have to go so soon, I know it's a decision in which none of you want me to make but I have to. I want to thank dQ for seeing my potential and giving me an officer position there, even though I probably was not that good at it. Let's see:

dQ: It's been fun hanging around the union debating, acting like fools, and joking around. Remember you are like one of the best leaders on GS I ever had and that's the truth ruth See ya around I guess on Xbox live.

Smitticus, Smitti, Smittaroony, Smittipuss: I probably knew you the longest right? From Mafia to They Came to play then SKS. You'll still have me in stitches even after I leave. Blah Blah Blah parting is such sweet sorrow. "Here's to looking at you, kid"

Dan and Dan: WolvesDan, you need to get Xbox 360 and stop holding out on your money 'mate' and DanDan it's been real homey. I'm going to miss both of you.

Maff: I hope you didn't hurt yourself on the skiing trip because I didn't see you around, but if you are reincarnated then I would like to say so long kid

Ok a few more *pants* I'm not good at this so bear with me.

Khatibi, Fari: It was nice not being the only girl in this sea of men, seeya around And if Yoz doesn't come around here tell him I said we missed him and so did I.

Yoz (if you are out there): Where have you been?! JK I knew you as long as I knew Smitti, so yeah seeya. *Note: All these years and I still don't know arabic let alone the lebanese dialect terrible right?

Erv: The new guy, now known as the writer, and named me his friend. I appreciate that. And a Note to dQ since I am leaving and my officer position is up for grabs. I highly reccommend Erv to take the reins. He contributed a lot with Gamenight and did more things as a recruit than I did as a officer. Do consider it dQ

LilD: Hey if you are still interested then PM me I'll check my PMs and look out for you PB King So long, and don't give up PB for no one not even that trickster Smitti

Icky Sticky: My fellow officer in the shadows of the SKS, don't be like me and leave they need you They need someone level headed to keep them sane. So long kid

IG and SC: I guess I'm following your lead

Mits, Empi, PhantomDad, and the others: You company was most appreciated and will miss all of you

*looks up* I guess that's it right, if I'm missing someone, then seeya around. So long everyone and we can still have gamenight just message me on Live and Smitti stop being a cheapskate and get a gold card, I did it Goodbye, Adios, Adieu, parting is such sweet sorrow.

Forever will be,

The1-thtgotaway.

PS: If I ever come back remind me to leave again ok Like I said now I'm just letting the bag out of the cat and the hat out of the rabbit So long

I'm touched.. I guess we'll all see you around XBL i guess. (well, when i say 'we' i mean almost everyone but wolves ) It's gonna be sad without you here on GS but I agree though, erv should grab your place for officership in the SKS
See you around

Wow, I didn't expect to be reading this anytime soon Im guna miss ya The1, weve had a good laugh teasing each other over the months (well, you had a good laugh teasing me! ) and you've always got something interesting to say

I feel bad cause Im not gonna see u on XBL, so I guess if you dont return here, I wont hear from you again Its been a pleasure, good luck in whatever your planning on doing
Posted 01/04/2009 3:42pm
Man, T1. I'm gonna miss you a lot around here. I don't know if I've had my head buried in the sand about this, or what. But this comes as a shock to me. I knew you were conflicted about such fraternization. But I thought the little devil on your shoulder would always win ... or is that the angel? IDK. Either way you're always welcome at the SKS, at my hotmail inbox, and my XBL message center. Please use any and all of them at will

About Erv. Yeah ... I've had my eye on him before I even got him to join. But, honestly, I'm always conflicted about making people officers, because it always feels like I want to make everyone an officer if they've contributed to our Society.
But your recommendation will be enacted. Consider Erv your replacement, though there will never be another T1 I know he won't let you down.

It looks like you're finally living up to your UN. That sucks, but as always, I respect your choice.
Take care, T1. I wish you the best, and hope this ain't the last I hear from you. Thanks for the very kind words and support.

Stay stealthy

I would have loved to meet you more.. bad the few times we talk were reallly great... Going to miss you really Take good care and do all your best out there

My gut always said this day was coming, with your abscence a while back, but I suppose I was still in denial It still hurts though
You've just missed my return to/from the shadows (there are basically no streetlights in eastern europe and Flanders is a fully lit dot on sattelite photos ) ... been back since yesterday. Luckily didn't break any legs - maybe broke some hearts

Goodbyes are not forever.
Goodbyes are not the end.
They simply mean I'll miss you
Until we meet again!

Goodbye the1!

PS can/will you PM me your hotmail? - btw, everyone send me your hotmail!
PPS you've know me almost as long as you've known Yoz and Smitti

You are leaving GS? Why? That's sad but Allah Yahdiki It was really nice knowing you The1. And thanks for the kind words. There are a lot of girls in GS, more than %30 of my friends are female and they are all cool, fun and wiry girl/gamers Don't know why you are leaving, hope you will change your mind sometimes in the near future

But who will I ever pick on when you're gone?

It's true we haven't been on the same board in a long time, but that doesn't mean I don't miss those little friendly quarrels with you. Hey, you're one of my earliest friends here on GameSpot, and it's pretty sad to see you go. I've been around, but have sticked to the shadows for a long time.

So let me guess: Facebook? MySpace? Some site where you have a hundred friends you don't know and where teenagers keep browsing other people's pictures just out of curiosity?

And you don't know Arabic? Well, you were able to recognize some of the words I wrote, but maybe there was a third party on standby? It doesn't matter now though. We'll wait for your return patiently, and if you ever decide to come back, I'll make sure I'll be one of the many who prevent you from getting away.

Dang, now I feel like I have cancer Wow I thought this decision was going to be easy but everyone is making it quite hard. And no Yoz I don't do facebook or myspace nor any other site where I have more friends than I have here, especially now that I see how much. Maybe I might lurk out the shadows and send everyone PMs one day truly. I guess this was a bit abrupt, but I guess that's how the mind works.

Dan1: Yeah we gonna see each other than Don't forget me on gamenight.

Dan2: Dude, you must get XBL, give in to the darkness it feels good

dQ: Wow you made me feel really bad But hey I have your hotmail so why is everyone saying like I have a terminal disease. Hey I could get away but my essence still linger

CM, GM, AB: Seeya guys around, maybe if yall would have caught me a year back it would have been a long one, but some people just have to die...I mean leave

Maff: I'm really happy you didn't break your legs and a breaking people hearts are good for you and your health JK I'll PM you my hotmail, but please don't end up being an 65 year old pervert that name is really George who drives trucks

Fari: Well I've been feeling this way a long time, I even told you about it through PM so yeah. And in plus, the things going on in Filisteen made me really rethink what I'm doing fii dunya and how I have to do what's right to make it in a better place fii akhira. I hope you understand. No really I hope you understand my busted Arabic No that's not what I meant, I truly hope you understand Yoz, Yoz, Yoz: I thought you wouldn't show up, you went too deep into those shadows. And like I said above, I'm not a facebook goer now I have to admit I have a couple of people passwords and go on there and have a good laugh, but that is not why I'm leaving And there was no third party involved, I may can understand arabic if you talk slow and pronounce everything, but I just can't speak it So yeah I'm good like that. Seeya around Yoz, it's been a good one.

I had to do this I didn't want to leave all of you hanging high and dry.

I'll miss ya hun. Take care.
Posted 01/05/2009 10:29am
no worries, I'm sure no-one will forget you any time soon I guess you really did get away this time
Posted 01/05/2009 1:08pm
Wow I was gone for 2 days taking care of some stuff in my life and just when I think things are ok I come home to this
I'm glad you consider me your friend, and I've gotta be honest with you, I think of you as a close friend despite not even knowing your name. It's gonna be a shame not making fun of your love for the Mets anymore. I hope you take care of yourself with whatever you're doing and I'll always let you know about our gamenights on Live. If you ever see me playing any of your games on Xbox Live do join in and don't be a stranger, send me a hello message every once in a while.

Thank you for the officer position offering. Honestly I don't think I'm doing anything worthy of a position like that but thank you nonetheless.

Well... what else is there to say? I didn't know you considered me "The Writer" by the way thank you. Well... Neo.. ( you said that was your name once)... I'll see you around. I hope you return to GS one day. Good luck.
Posted 01/05/2009 8:18pm
