It has not gone un noticed, and your efforts are appreciated .
Take a few days, lick your wounds, but no need to check out all together.
It would be a loss to the forums if you bailed .
My sentiment exactly.

It was getting better. Restos don’t happen overnight.

I must agree. I was given notice and edited. I think that means I am important. But, I agree with what you did.

Huh????? Cab was a moderator...no fkin way man..

With 27000 posts Cab is a Pelican junkie and like all junkies as much as they are gona go into rehab and swear off the stuff they always come back for more..

I tool him he was emo...he denied it...and now he goes and proves it..he is going home and taking his ball with him...so there squibs..

When you are Sheriff you have responsibilities and can't just be friends no mo...so you have to tighten up your rhetoric..

No body here wants to know what I would be like as a moderator..

He was a good one, too.

But his fire was magnesium and far too quickly the white-hot flame consumed him and left him with only emptiness in his soul.

A mod from Ohio named Nick
Hoped to stamp out the bullsh*** so thick
But though Off Topic and PARF
Can induce one to barf
Methinks that he gave up too quick

As much as I post here...I always miss the dust-offs that end like this. How is that possible...and how do people actually become angry over posts on a blog site? My wife is meaner to me than the folks here...and I sorta care what she thinks.

Ding ding ding....we have a winner!

My take has always been......"It's only a message board!"

Like Icarus he flew to close to the sun.
After cab became moderator he started to remind me of beygon and madcorgi before they got banned. Kind of frantic posting and way to often.

Too bad, the neighorrhood definitely saw an improvement with his moderation. I suppose it will turn to chaos now.

cabmando - I wish you would reconsider staying on board here as a moderator. You've gone a good job keeping things separated between PPOT and PARF. It is a thankless job, but someone's gotta do it.

So far, nobody has done so, but -- if anyone decides to start attacking cab here (or elsewhere), expect a 3 week visit to ban island.

For the regulars here in OT: I will do my best to keep things clean in here in PPOT as well as PARF. Been busy of late (story of my life), but I'll pay closer attention to PPOT. Seems PARF is always the kid that screams louder, and thus, is the forum that gets a bit more attention...

Better to have a drink with your friends, fortunately for me, I have made a friend or 2 here and been able to have drinks with them as well
