Hey guys. I am sorry i haven't been on as much as i used to. I would occasionally look at the forums like once or twice a month (not my usual behavior, i would usually post the max every day lol).

But i guess i just kind of lost the passion for spudding.. I always do, once i get "too" into it. but then i just give myself like 2-3 months of "absolute-spudless activities" and the passion seems to return. Well, guess what guys, my passion is as strong as ever! I have new ideas and am pumped to be back on the forums.

I don't know. The fuss about the leaving threads was that everyone leaves. If you had to have at for everyone, it would be a huge mass.

A big member returning is a bigger deal, and it happens less often.

Also, it's harder to blame a "coming back" member for tagging on to a trend for the threads. :P
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

I would be willing to host a wisconsin meet for us Wisconsinites!

God knows we have enough wisconsin spudders.

Only problem is it would be up in Eau Claire...

@rp181 - I think that PCGUY's major concern with publicizing people leaving the forums is bad business. But a long-time member coming back to the forum is a different story (like Ragnarok said).

@ilovetoblowthingsup - Yeah, i know. we should get an IPLA meeting set up somewhere.... Anywhere really lol.

@VH_man - Good, I'm glad that the pump served its purpose to meet your standards :wink:

@starman - Hehehe...you will see soon enough....and once you do, you will be left with a load in your pants the size of a football :shock: :lol: :twisted:

@frankrede - nice to know that somebody else understands, thanks.

@davidviani - sounds like a good idea, you will have to talk to ilovetoblowthingsup to see if its cool with him and we can make this happen!

@jrrdw - hehehe, patients my friend....patients...



Again, glad to be back guys.... Feels good, interacting with "old" friends lol

You wrote patients rather than patience. Dammit, these things aren't any fun when the person you're poking fun at doesn't get it...

Oh that just gave me a slight discomfort, but laughter at the same time.

Common knowledge of the average spudder? Wouldnt you agree?
