Sad news to announce today, folks.

Our beloved moderator, Send2Paul, is giving up his moderator role here due to work and travel commitments. He's been a gigantic help to us here in battling spam and disabling spammers. His humor and playfulness, both in the "backroom" and out front had us in stitches and made our "work" here fun.

Paul also was my stats man. He's the one able to gather and analyze our forums data and make sense of it. His positive, never say never attitude has often been my personal injection of needed energy to keep going on the tough days here.

Paul will still stop and visit us when he can.

Please join me in bidding him thanks and pleasant journey on where life takes him next.

Paul, thank you. You'll be terribly missed.

He'll be missed... but hopefully will stick his head in every now and then (I hope).

Paul,

Your presense in the administrative section of the forums will be missed greatly, and your humor has been a blessing to all of us here at Cre8asite.

I wish you the best in your increased work duties, and hope you see much success. I also hope that we get a chance to see you around here when you get the opportunity to visit.

Your efforts have helped to make Cre8asite a better place. Thanks.

Aww, sorry to hear you're stepping down -- but I'm glad that's because of your busy and exciting life!! cheers.gif

Will you drop by for a round of singing horses every now and then?

I come at this from the angle that I should, and shall, be happy for your fortune; to have a job remains a blessing.

So, given your good fortune I can only be happy for you even though I feel like a good friend says farewell.

I do hope you'll find time between job and family to drop in every now and then.

Good luck Paul! thumbs.gif

Paul, the place won't be at all the same without you. However all the very best wishes for your future endeavors.

I guess someone else will have to make sure the banana's are trotted out on suitable occasions now.

Thanks for all your efforts. They are very much appreciated. Please do drop in often and let us know how things are going. Your many friends will really welcome that.

This is really bad news. Paul is like an institution here and although his posts have been steadily declining this year they are always full of humor and wisdom.

We will miss you Paul. Good Luck!

We will sincerely miss you, Paul -- your humor and tireless efforts at stomping out spam have been a boon to the forums.

But not being an administrator shouldn't stop your humor! wink-2.gif

Thank you boys and girls, thank you. smile.gif

It's with a heavy heart etc etc... that I have to let go of Cre8asite for a while. The "offline world" , (Damn it! tongue.gif ), is calling me, and I need to pay attention to what it's saying.

Cre8asite is an excellent place to learn and be part of a community - and that's how you've all made me feel here - part of something really good. I shall miss my times here... but it's not the end of the world, I shall pop in from time to time.... as a mere mortal on this side of the fence, (for a round of singing horses and other things, John! wink-2.gif)....lol.... smile.gif

Thank you to Kim and all my Moderator/Admin colleagues for their help and support over the years - it has been much appreciated! smile.gif

So, in the words of Fu Manchu - "The world shall hear of me again! infinite-banana.gif

It should be forbidden in the rules for Paul to leave anywhere.

But if that's not possible, then, Good luck, bloke
