Goodbye, Gem Flower. Good luck in school!

DD, at least you're not leaving FOREVER like you did that other time.

Cryssandra, hoping to see you again soon. I was starting to enjoy your presence at SMBG. (That's an odd reason for being grounded, by the way.)

Wait, you got grounded for being right? Or was it the way in which you said it?

Grounded for that? Wow, you must have been a massive jerk about it.

Either that, or there was some major overreaction. (I'm leaning towards this)

Maybe we should be afraid. Everytime he leaves forever, he comes back. So maybe when he leaves for a couple of days...

My stay was short, it was only a week or two. And school is posing a significant problem that I decided to take a full month of forums, facebook and reading webcomics and manga. I might be back, i might not, but I leave you with a comic that sort of spurred me on to this decision.

Yeah, I agree, that's a very silly thing to be grounded for unless she was particularly nasty about the correction. I have a feeling it was just a huge overreaction.

Goodbye Saturn. I did the exact same thing you are doing, for similar reasons. Best of luck, and hopefully your time off will be greatly beneficial to you.

One doesn't, except in extreme circumstances (like spambots).

Pfft. People ain't annoyed (at least the ones today) just flabbergasted and slightly sleep deprived (it is half one in the morning here in the UK) I would think. Everybody irritates everyone else at some point. Don't worry yourself over it.

I think it has something to do with him making a thread about how to be British to impress a girl at school, and the ensuing embarrassment.

Even when you do something stupid, people won't hate you. At most a few people. Trust me; it's not worth leaving over.

And we have a goodbye thread. Deletion is simply never using it again, or committing a banable offence, which you should not ever do, as this is the best forum out there.

If you must take a break, take a break. I have done so periodically when I opened my mouth in too many alignment discussions and got really frustrated and upset. Don't leave forever though! Feelings will calm, and in two weeks, no one will even remember what happened. Really.

I would say there are a number of better forums out there, even though I spend most of my time in GitP. That's mostly because it's big, however, and quantity has a quality of its own.

But yes, don't leave over something small and silly like that*.

Seriously though, at the risk of sounding repetitive, repetitive, repetitive... people say things sometimes that come out sounding a lot worse then they really are.

Edit: Talkin' to Froogleboy, as the thread seems to have been merged.
