Expand Same reasons most of the good ones step away: The frustrating conversations outweighed the stimulating ones. It’s too bad because he always ranked high on the stimulating end of the spectrum, and, for me, his loss tilts the balance in the wrong direction. 3 Quote

In conversation with @Thorny his retirement is permanent. He said that he will lurk and may post some reactions to posts, but he is finished posting. I am hoping that he changes his mind. After all @LabattBlue came out of retirement after many years and he still is a force even at his ripe old age. Expand Luckily my retirement pause was in the middle of the terrible era. Now that they are ready to turn the corner, you are stuck with me. 2 Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted September 12, 2023 Report Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) In regards to @Thorny it was one reply to a post of his that pushed him away. EDIT: Actually it was not a direct reply to a @Thorny post, but shots were fired directly at him in a posted reply to another post in the thread in question. It's easy to find.

shrader Posted September 13, 2023 Report Posted September 13, 2023 I snuck out this morning for a golf lesson. At one point the pro, who I'm pretty sure is younger than me, mentioned his daughter in college. Meanwhile here I am with a 1 year old. For the longest time I always used to gauge people's age by the age of their kids. I really need to find a new system. 1 2 Quote
