Hello to you all at RHP.I have made a decision to bow out of the rest
of my games.I'll not wait until all of my current games are finished
before I retire.I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.Please
feel free to claim the win as soon as the time limit is over.
I would like to thank the creators of this site for its well thought out
and laid out plan.There could not possibly be a better chess site.It has
been a great experience.I know it will continue to grow,and I hope it
will one day be more financially profitable for you guys.
To my opponents I say thank you for playing me.To you guys
who are in the upper echelon,it was my privilege.And to the more
mediocre players I say thanks also.At least I did get to have a few
victories.And plenty of losses to you also.Thank you for the games.It
truly has been my privilege.
I do have special appreciation to offer to the guys who played game
after game with me.Rematch after rematch.I truly looked forward to
seeing you had moved when I logged on.I'll not mention everyone by
name,but you know who you are.I never told you while we were playing,
but some of you came to have a special place in my heart.I was going
through a tough time,and though we may not have chatted or
anything,it was like you were there for me.I do want to thank you.I'm
not doing this to get a reaction,so I'll not check the forums for any
replies to this post.I'm outta here for a long while.But I do appreciate
you guys so much.
I have taken up enough server space with my ramblings,so I'll close
now.God bless you all and it will be in my prayers that each of you will
will find His purpose for your life.Peace and goodwill to each of you.
