Leaving NS General. Sigh.

Eutrusca
15-10-2005, 16:48
I have decided, since this latest attrocity (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=449706) on the part of certain unnamed parties, to leave NS General for awhile. My operation will soon incapacitate me for about a week, so the timing is right.

Whether I return or not is in doubt.

Thank you to all those on here who don't see sarcasm as "trolling." And thank you to all the friends I have made on here. Hopefully I'll still be able to talk with you on messenger services.

Thank you, Ashmoria. I appreciate that. :fluffle:

I hope to beat it without further treatments. The doctor said that it apparently hasn't spread, at least not to my bones, which is where prostate cancer "likes to go." ( his words )

( shrug ) As I said in my thread about this, it's just another battle to fight. Ultimately, we will all lose the war, but individual battles are definitely winnable. I've proven this to myself time and time again. :)

It's that and this most recent attrocity ( see the "I was going to let this go, but ..." thread on Moderation ) was the final straw. I started a serious discussion which person or persons unnamed decided they didn't like and the thread was closed. ( shrug ) I didn't mind being accused of "trolling." That happens all the time. What really set me off was the decision by Moderation to close a thread which had a good discusssion going, IMHO. Whatever.

Don't leave just because I'm considering leaving permanently. You have lots to offer here and should at least try to stick it out. Either way, keep in touch. I'll leave my profile active so I can still get emails from here. :)

"Ramblings?" "Ramblings??" :eek: :p

Yes, the treatments are improving, along with the patient's chances. I've been reading up on this and there are some amazing developments, including a small, robotic device that does a great job of taking out just the cancer cells, leaving the healthy ones. Unfortunately, that's not available yet, plus mine is pretty much spread throughout the prostate, so a more radical approach is indicated.

Thank you for the well-whishes! :fluffle:

To be perfectly honest, I most definitely did not intend to "troll." I couldn't access the article because it was part of a "premium" service and my funds are at a new low just now, so it wasn't an option to sign up. So I just posted the quote I could see because I thought it would make for an interesting discussion. Obviously, it was a bit TOO "interesting!" Heh!

I have decided, since this latest attrocity on the part of certain unnamed parties, to leave NS General for awhile. My operation will soon incapacitate me for about a week, so the timing is right.

Whether I return or not is in doubt.

Thank you to all those on here who don't see sarcasm as "trolling." And thank you to all the friends I have made on here. Hopefully I'll still be able to talk with you on messenger services.

I'll miss ya Eut. You are one of my respected adversaries (though, actually, we agree on quite a bit.) Hope you come back. The curmudgeon levels will fall to dangerous lows without you.

Eutrusca leaving? But...where will all the new threads about sub-machine guns and shit come from?

Good luck with the op, Eut. Oh, and come back, obivously. Injustices serve to make a man stronger. Or crush his spirit, depending on the strength of character. Considering your strength of character - stronger applies.:p

I'll get him to TG the ideas to me, and then forward them to the rest of you so someone who knows more about the subject can post them...

So I posted my earlier question this morning and basically had to get through a lot of Saturday chores and marketing - i.e. I forgot completely about it all. Coming back online late this afternoon, I went looking in the moderation forum, and I think I understand now why Eutrusca is leaving - it's 'cause of the 'babe thread' being moved to spam, isn't it? It's funny though Eut - I've never actually bothered looking through the 'babe thread', not in all the time I've been on NS. My thoughts were much along those of Hack - if I want to gawk at airbrushed people, I can do so through Google at leisure. Hell, if I really wanted to, there's literally stacks of magazines at the office, chock-a-block full of full-colour, high-gloss retouched images of variously 'beautiful' people.

I'm just not getting it, Eutrusca. It hardly seems to be worth leaving over. Maybe you're just feeling a need to move on. Whatever the case, I wish you well on your journey. Good luck and good health be yours.

We ALL love ya, big guy! Good luck in everything! I'm sure you'll be fine! (your a tough old bastard!:D ) We still be here fighting the power, and trying to drive the mods out! Hey, while your in the hospital, with time to kill, you could always write Max Berry, and tell him why you left his forum! I'm sure he'd listen if ya told him you were buying a book! LOL

God speed, Eut! HHOO HHAAAA!!!

I understand the sentiment that is making you consider leaving. I got so thoroughly disgusted with a growing element that stalked posters of differing views, baited them, and slammed them with personal insults and character attacks, with apparent mod approval, that I left NS. I've trusted you to give them back what they give as you're a much stronger personality than I. If you go, who is going to give the younger folks on here an insight into the elder generation's views and what shaped those views? Who is going to pick on Fass? Who is going to shed light on the ulterior motives of some of the less than honest on here? Who is Fass going to pick on? Who is going to provide an example of self-discipline and gung-ho courage. Have you thought about how this could stunt Fass' emotional growth and well-being? Who is going to jump to the aid of less experienced of similar views and ideologies? Think of Fass!!!!!

Get your surgery done, buy a rubber donut, plunk your ass in front of your computer, and give em Hell soldier!! That's an order!!

PS: I love you Fass.:fluffle:

Good Bye Eutrusca, I liked your personality, and opinions it is something NS general needs.

That's about all I'm going to read in this thread for the moment. I had been hoping for the chance to get to know you some more on NS but if I don't get that chance (and even if I do) I wish you the best in life. Keep up the good fight.

Damn! I had just gotten used to you, man. That mod was being pretty high-handed, but what the hell -- take a good break -- you don't need to take attitude when you're getting ready for surgery. You'll be back -- us opinionated types can't stand knowing others are spouting off and we're not in on it. :D

Good luck with the operation and speedy recovery!

Damn, sorry to hear it Eut. I've left as well, but my leaving thread three months ago generated 11 replies from 4 posters :(
This time I've left for good though, earlier today, due to a certain moderation decision that I disagreed with.

There was a copy of the same article in US News And World Report about a year ago. But what its says about the libs is true.

The island of sanity that is the at least mostly-moderates on NS General erodes a bit more :P

On a high note, who remembers what happened when somebody called Eut a 'jarhead'?
Anybody?

While I wish you best I think your "atrocity" was way over stated ... It seemed to be a fair ruling from the data they have

Anyways best of luck with that surgery and all

Remember to destroy the cancerous growth they remove from you.

They made that mistake when they cut the growth from Reagan's nose. It eventually grew into Rush Limbaugh. :(

SOme lessons we learn the hard way. :(

Anyhoo...I know you can't stay away. You aren't going to escape that easily. I've installed a tracking device just in case. :D
