    My compass will never draw a perfect circle again. DeV's trousers are at half mast. White smoke is billowing from our laptops.

    good luck dude. It must be killing you to read all this and not be able to reply.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,606 ✭✭✭Jumpy


    Personally I dont see what you are on about, I have been here longer and I havent seen that much of a change. Less searching *coughs* but apart from that its still the same old boards.

    You're the only one who feels that way. This site is vastly different to the one that was here in 2004.

    having no search isn't a change. It's actually things going back to normal :)

    Shame to see you go orestes, but best of luck.

    Who's orestes?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    You know what they say; the best way to get over one forum is to get under a new forum.

    Nice post anyway and I understand where you're coming from. Best off downloading the site manager extension for Firefox and whitelisting Boards, will help you get over the withdrawal.

    G'Luck.

    Ah, sorry to see you go Orestes. :(

    I'll miss dragging up your childhood scars.

    Nah. That said, only 5 infractions needed to site ban me for the next year.

    A great contributor to the various communities he was involved in and helped grow. A really decent, clever, funny guy too.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.



  • Registered Users Posts: 19,608 ✭✭✭✭sceptre


    Orestes, simply put, it's been good having you around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Aye, thanks for all the help and ideas dude. Don't be a stranger.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,594 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Sad to hear this, orestes. Top moderator of the pro wrestling and the stand-up comedy forum.

    Was good fun doing the boards wrestling drafts with you on board and the Lance Storm thing will go down in draft legend for those that remember it. ;)

    All the best, man.

    Good luck orestes, it was easy to see how highly regarded you were (and still are) around here.

    This site, and the people I have met through it, have improved my life. If it weren't for some of the people I have met through this site, who helped me through some seriously messed up times in the last 6 months, I would not be here today.

    Pity you're going man, I would have loved the opportunity to interview you about this for my thesis.

    Always a bummer to lose someone who tried to give as much as take.
    Given that it's Feedback, I've done my best to refrain from drawing attention to that comment, but I know that Otestes would be disappointed in me if I let it slide! :pac:
