Leaving NS For a better place (for me)

Jay W

Some of you know me as:

Popsland
Saul 2 Paul
or
Jay W.

I am now leaving NS on what is most likely a permanent basis. I will attempt to make the occassional check back in, but with as busy as I am now I don't know if I will be able to keep up with the 28 day cut off. I may have to start a new nation to see what is happening.

I am currently involved with another forum style site. I am an Admin. on this other site. This site is more to my liking.

I have asked for, and received, permission to post a link to this other site, but first I would like to let you all know a little about what it is all about.

Our site is a Christian based (no surprise for any who know me), family friendly (heavily moderated) site. Everyone is welcome to our site, but we do not tolerate any putting down of anyone elses beliefs. No foul language. No spamming. No flaming. Like I said we are very heavily moderated. But if you are interested in talking about beliefs on a rationally, calm, non-berating level you can find this type of thing at:

http://s7.invisionfree.com/Light_of_the_World

Come check it out if you wish. You can check it out as a guest or register as a member either way. Hope to see some of you there, and continue to enjoy your time here as well.

It has been a pleasure.

God's Love
Jay.

I appreciate the offer, but as an atheist, I'd just get myself into trouble, or give myself a pounding migraine, trying to talk sense into a bunch of Christians...

Good luck.

Hateful?

I thought I was being nice.....

I COULD have said...

"Oh yEAH? ***K YOU, you dirty *********r !! why dont you have a pineapple shoved in your *** untill you ***** and ****** while you **** the **** from your ***** .

THAT would be hateful.

But that wasnt my intention you see....

Okay, here's the thing (and this isn't really specific to Jay W, though he is the Grand Stand Grand Master)....

What's with the grandstanding exits? Why do people go through these mellodramatic farewells, big "I'm leaving...." or worse, suicide by mods? I imagine my nation will just die one day after it hasn't occoured to me to go to NS after 28 days and that'll be it, no big deal. I don't understand the urge for all the pomp and circumstance. Seems affectatious. (no idea if thats spelled right)

Seems affectatious. (no idea if thats spelled right)Well, in this case (not in the others) I just wanted to say a goodbye. I have made some very good aquaintences around the boards here. Some friendly, some not. I only had a wish to let them know where they would be able to find me. I first went to the moderation forum to ask for the permission to post the link. Stephistan, a mod, who I have had good and bad times with before, granted this permission and I posted the link. I posted it only once because that was my only intention. I do give her many thanks for granting this permission, as it is a bending of the rules, slightly. Whatever her opinion of me may or may not be, I do hold a high respect for the mods, as I have often stated. Now as I am an Admin., myself, I have even a higher respect for the work they do. Back to the farewell though. On previous occassions I have left this game with my temper very high. I will be the first to admit that my post upon leaving at that time was on the grandstanding level. When a persons emotions get the best of them they are not at their best for their behaviour. So take it for what it is worth, nothing. My leaving this time is on a calm, peaceful, even happy note. So take it for what it is worth. Nice.

What's all this "answered other site" c**p? Either post or go ...Ok since you obviously don't understand the concept of politeness. I will explain it to you. Right now I am doing Administration work on my other site. GV had a question that was awaiting an answer there. As a polite person, I wanted to let him know that his answer was ready for him. Since he is one of our members an answer to a question is one of his benefits. I was also talking to him here and as a faster means of getting the answer to him I could type just three simple little words "answered other site" and he would know what it meant. I am so sorry that it confused you. Being a polite person when someone makes a comment to me or ask a question of me I respond to it. So I will keep posting until there is nothing more to respond to. I do so hope that is easy enough for your mind to understand.

Oh, dear ... why don't Christians ever demonstrate that most basic human trait ... a sense of humour.

I'll spell it out in words of one syllable ... mostly ...

"Answer other site" was a curt and impolite phrase.

It would have taken you not very much much longer to type a polite answer.

I suggest you are an attention-seeker of the worst order. We have received your message - you're leaving NS for another site. You have made that and your reasons for doing so perfectly clear. Why, then, are you continuing to post on NS? Please, you are not suddenly going to convert any of us now, so don't keep hoping.

Please, you are not suddenly going to convert any of us now, so don't keep hoping.I do believe if you would take the time to look you will see that I said "Answered" not "Answer". I wasn't telling someone to do something. I was telling someone something I had done. Which is quite polite.

If I have made things so very clear, then why is it that you can not grasp the idea that I will continue to answer questions when asked?

Furthermore, in my entire stay on NS I have never once attempted to convert even one person. I have no idea where you would get the insane notion that I would start trying to do such a thing on my last day here. Ask around, hey ask Steph she seen plenty of my post find one example of an attempt made by me to convert anybody. If you can show even one, I will post in the largest acceptable print (size 24 if I am not mistaken) that I have lied and am a total fake.
