Temporary Retirement from AH

[mazersteven]

You write of a temporary retirement, but then continue to lurk on. What's up with that Seth?

Why don't we give the guy a break, and support him.

Support? So where do we send these?

We are supporting him,nobody here dislikes Seth in any way,the kid's admitted several times that surfing this forum is hurting his life,should we all smile & wave when we know his presence here is hurting him ?

Just the fact that he is now in lurk mode shows the severity of his forum addiction,Johnd was right to point out the lurking.

Agreed.
I'll miss Seth's presence here. Most of his posts were informative if not entertaining.
But if this place is part of his problem then scaring him off is unfortunately the best thing for him.

Sorry Seth, but I don't want to be a contributor to your problem.

You're joking, right mazer? I just commented on the irony of seth complaining of spending too much time here at the cost of other duties, then taking the time to start a thread on it, and then lurking around the vent.

My quip was my dry humor at work again (oft missed by others ). If he is in dire straits (other than possibly ignoring his responsibilities and/or other hobbies at the cost of the one) it has completely missed me, and for that I would apologize. I just saw some humor in the irony, that's all. My wishes, however, were quite sincere.

I trust that's not directed at me, Nomo. Paranoia has once again set in. I too like seth's posts. I have nothing disparaging to say about him. Nothing. (Except that he has managed to mismanage his time at the expense of a hobby, perhaps like others of us. )

Soap on a rope. Only from a Major. Ouch!

 

[majorloser]

I'm sure they'll still have internet access.

Not directed at you in a negative way at all.
I personaly didn't see your post as being unsupportive, to the contrary, you pointed out what I had noticed myself but didn't have the nerve to say.
Seth is lerking and if he has what he considers a problem, he needs some one to call him on it.

 

[Johnd]

Really? Did I miss JohnD's support post somewhere in this thread?

Or did I just read a sarcastic post?

Sorry if I misread the post, but I don't think I did.

There was nothing sarcastic in the Wishes for a Merry Christmas or a Blessed New Year. What you coin as sarcasm others would call humor, perhaps a bit dry, but humor nonetheless.

Perhaps I am missing the grave circumstance here mazer. Please enlighten me if I have. The only malady suffered is mismanaged time...correct? My quip was about the irony of posting a thread on posting too much. Am I the only one that sees it? I would not ridicule a man in dire need. I just fail to see the gravity of the situation. I trust seth will be back in time, and for that we will all rejoice.

You a brave man to write that Nomo. Thank you. And thank you for your honesty plainness of view.

That's just harsh. But I trust even seth sees the humor Major. Thanks for the contribution. Prison. Geeesh.

Hey guys, what's goin on? I was in fact contacting No. 5 about something.

I was curious to see where the thread went as well. I am weening myself off the site. It is really hard. And yes, it is mismanaged time.

 

[Audioholics]

Go Away Already!

Thank you. And thank you for seeing no evil in my posts. Hopefully, you got a little chuckle out of the humor, and took my Christmas wishes as sincere.

Now, as the Senior Edior-in-Charge has so mandated: GO AWAY!

 

[Johnd]

Very good. Sometimes three words get the point across quite succintly. I have much to learn.

A likely story. Words of an addict. Keep it up Seth, and we'll appease to the powers that be for a mandatory, rather than voluntary "holiday."

This is also one of the reasons why i don't post as often as many others. I need to prioritize. Seth...you might have other forums as member as well, i would suggest u do the same there. It is addictive. Take a break, get ur stuff back together and ONLY come back when you are sure you can manage your time more properly. Don't lurk on this thread anymore. If you read and reply to this post, you haven't really been able to do just that and you need a smack on your b*tt. I'll leave Clint to do the honor.

 

[j_garcia]

Hopefully that means you will be spending some time with all that audio gear and not something too serious. Take care. Will be looking forward to hearing from you again soon Seth.
