Hey all...

well we have all seen the recent attacks on me by screw dave and now Schliemann2...this crap is keeping the moderators running back and forth like madmen. And it is taking away from the site.

So guess what...I am leaving and this time it will be for good. I love this place WAY too much for this junk to distract everyone.

I am tired of this petty stuff and I don't need to worry all of the time that someone is trying to make me look bad or say whatever about me. I have a new life now and I am very happy...all this does is take away from that.

So tuco or whoever you are...you win..I give. I have been here mostly for one reason...to promote RHP..I have given lessons and won a few games...held #1 for awhile...and made MANY friends. But this is one game I cannot win.

I love you all...the ones who know know my email address...I can continue with lessons through email and maybe playing live games on another site.

Thank you Russ and Chris...you have built something here that will last. It really is he best email site on the net...which is my testimonial on the main page..I hope it will stay there forever.

Dave

Sorry to see you go, I dont really know you but I do know that alot of other people do and I know that you will be missed.

before you do go however can I have a lesson or 2 (as you can see I really need one.

I think you should stay as well. Don't give away your power by leaving or responding to him. Kirk

If you really feel you must go, the alas, I wish you godspeed good sir. I do emplore you to stay though. One of the reasons this site is great is good folk like you. So if not for yourself my friend, I ask you to tuff it out for the poor schmoes like me who need the pleasant company of gentlemen. 🙂

Dave, although you've resigned all those games and are completely serious about leaving the site, its not too late to change your mind.

Please don't give in to these idiots. I know you can't beat them but you don't have to take them on. Just ignore their attacks and let others deal with them. If the moderators cannot do the job, I'm sure the site owners will take action.

If you do leave it will be a sad day for Red Hot Pawn.

Dave

It would be a shame to see you go, you have far more to offer being on the site than not. But if you go, at least you are doing it on your own terms.

Andrew

Dave man, you freakin rock! I vote stay! 😏

dammit Dave, I didn't want the points. I wanted to play you & talk during the game. Maybe even learn something.
I don't want you to go, and I don't think your reasons are justified.
It is your decision, but please stop yo-yoing. Think of all the people who played you when you were sub 1200 knowing they were going to get their butts kicked & lose points, then you give those points away to undeserving players like me.
Stay or go. I hope stay.

Dave,

Don't leave. Please stay. Don't let this individual win like this.

Your Friend,

Doug

I agree! If it means anything I wouldn't moderating more if it meant keeping you here! I didn't play games against you because I liked getting smacked around! I liked to talk and play chess with you Dave! STAY!

adios-i wondered why you timed out in our game. but farwell and all the best for the future-you shall be missed, but you have left your mark...

best wishes,

genius

Give in to this man and the next thing your sitting at the back of bus!!
Hang In !!!

I agree with Kirk. It would be sad to see one of the bastions of RHP civilization controlled by a contemptible troll such as Tuco. But it's you're decision, I suppose.
