View Full Version : Booger's Out


Big Booger
January 16th, 2007, 11:36 AM
I decided to booger off from Techzonez. It's been a great 5 year ride, I made a lot of good internet friends, and helped make a niche for a group of some of the best. But as the saying goes, "All good things must come to an end." I will be leaving Techzonez effective today.

I hate to go but it's a necessity and I will miss being here. I never thought in a million years I'd be leaving this community. I thought I'd grow old and die posting on these forums. However, things have changed and I have changed.

I wish you all the best and hope that Techzonez will be your place for years to come to get your tech news and support from, to talk with friends and to freely discuss things that you find interesting or helpful to others.

As for myself, I'll get on, but I will miss it here. Have a good one gents and ladies.

As they say in Japan:

"さようなら"
"sayounara" for those without east Asian language support ;)

I can't imagine what TZ would be like without you Big Booger. I hope that someday you'll miss us and come back in whatever capacity it may be, whether as an Admin or as a regular member.

I can still remember the days when we were a bunch of forum orphans after Peppy's forum went down. Reverend, Booger, Phishhead, Egghead and myself always stuck together on whatever forum we became members. I'm so sad for this to happen as you were a cornerstone of the development of this now big and popular forum that we strove to achieve.

You will be missed Boogs.:msncry:

Booger you are the sanity and the laughs on this forum, all rolled into one. Without you it's just... well.... just another Tech forum. :(

Dammit BB ~ Of all people - not you...

Politics and religion cause alot of trouble. You simply can't do much more than make the passing swipe w/o getting someone hot. Still, there had to be more going on than what was posted.
You are a cornerstone here and I hope you come back. Good luck to you always. DRB

We had a political arena? How'd I miss that? :D

BB - do what you have to do. The door is always open to you and you know you're welcome to return anytime. I'll miss your posts and comments. Please keep in touch and watchout for the black helicopters.

Take care and best of luck.

Well i think thats a bit harsh and an unfair judgement on the other members here. However i do understand your sentiments.

Reverend
January 16th, 2007, 18:04 PM
And to Boogs, you will have "Administrator" under your name until i say different.

Techzonez is in your blood. ;)

Sorry Rev didn't mean to offend.
Maybe it was a little over the top, but I was genuinely shocked and disappointed.
My intention was not to affront any members, it’s just Boogs is a prolific poster and comes up with constant and interesting information, as well as some seriously crazy links. What I was trying to say is, without his abundant input the links will be mostly tech related (yeah I know it’s a tech forum) ~ but it was always fun to see what other things the world was up to.

Come back BB

Reverend

Sorry Rev didn't mean to offend.No problem, none taken. :)

He'll be back.

Well definitely sorry to hear BB, you've been a great member of this community and i hope everything works out for you ! :)

Ofcourse your always welcome back, and that you're just taking a rest on the bench at half-time.

Keep it real, take it easy on the roads with your fancy 200SX, and give your dog a treat - let her bite the post-man. !

Cheers buddy.

A sad day. Been absent for a while, so just spent time ascertaining the underlying reason for this turn of events. The thread was both valid and thought provoking, it was also obviously heartfelt. Legitimate points of the opposite view were also made and the potential for a considered debate (excluding political rhetoric) was there. That this should be the end result is a disappointment at best. Good luck in your future endeavours.

You will be missed tremendously BB. You helped solved many of my problems here at Techzonez. Wish you well in your new endevours, but as Rev. has said "He will be back", I sure hope so.

yep, you're right Rev... i think we took BB for granted and actually really appreciate his time and effort in trawling the web for crazy reports and articles from around the globe!

But definitely others have stepped up. Egg and Efc have been doing great work with new articles, and tech discussions.

We'll all band together and get it thriving again :D

IMHO.....

Mr Big Booger is an interesting, intelligent, creative, thought provoking, Caring individual who is a proud pioneer member of Techzonez.com and I feel he just wants a little time with the family and loving wife to escape the daily grime of the internet and all it has to teach all of us,


I have admired Big Booger for the past five years that we have known each other and I will continue to hope he is doing well and I truly believe that he is coming back in a new operating system form without the bugs that is troubling all of us and we as people that strive to learn from the web will rejoice at the new technology he has discovered and is anxious to announce here.

Your friends here "boogs", love you and miss you!

Boogs has some personal issues in his life at the moment that he wants to sort out.

I would like to stress, on his behalf, that none of these issues are related to Techzonez. In fact he has told me that he does not rule out a return in the future.

On describing Techzonez he said "I love that place. And I do lurk in dark shadows. It's not a habit easily given up... in fact it's worse that a cocaine addiction".

This is what happens when I am absent too long. I hope hope he comes back someday, mainly now that I am getting my life and calendar back on track and I will have more time to hang around in the forums.
I have myself been in and out a lot. I had a very crazy year, and still every once in a while I would come back. Everytime I have a problem I think...humm someone at TZ could help me out with this.
We will miss you BB and wait patiently for your return

Still no sign of BB (after a quick search since not being online for 5 months)... I would like to wish him a very happy festive season, and that Santa is kind to him and his 100Mbps Fiber connection :D

I hope its a sake filled holiday for all !
