wow, I didn't even think that was that bad, what azmunch said. But this thread kinda reminds me of a funeral, so yeah, I'd say it was pretty inappropriate.

Ok this will be the last one! I wasn?t going to post again here, but after I have seen all the post?s and overwhelming support I have decided to say thank you all, and I understand where you are all coming from and appreciate all your kind words. I just don?t want to go into details about my reasons as I am not one for calling out names. Let?s just say I am a 40 year old man and I don?t really need the crap I get here. A couple of people here know my main reason?s for leaving and if they feel obligated to let you know it really doesn?t matter to me. I truly do love this community and all the people in it so I will retract from my previous statement and follow some of your advice. I just may come back in a month or two, but it is unlikely. I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone that is not my intentions I just felt the right thing to do was to say goodbye. I owed you all that much. Besides I have watched most of you learn a great deal, and share your experiences with others so all will be fine without me here just share your knowledge with others so they can in turn do the same that is what I hope I have accomplished. From reading this thread it looks very promising.
My warmest regards and respect,
Brent
PS I am going to email my guides to CJC and he said he will post them on his sight if anyone is interested.
I also believe I know who azmunch is :-) Good luck with all your feauture endevours :-)

bbmayo,
I would like to ask you to reconsider leaving. There have been many times in my life where I thought of giving up something in my life becuase i recieved criticism from others or others making stupid remarks. I don't think you should give up just on the basis of others stupid comments of ill thoughts about the way things are or should be. You are such a valuable member of this community that I think this website take a hit if you actually decide to leave. A wise friend told me if you hit a nerve with people even if its positive or negative that means you have truly done something great. I will admit, there is a lot of jerks on this site. A lot of people on here have a lot of fun making fun of others. Or knocking others technical advise when they truly know nothing. In my opinion my friend, you out shine them everytime and you have helped so many I would not give up just out of those people. If we do not share knowledge and help each other and just give up, you let those people win. I think you are just to smart a person to let those nay sayers do that do you. Please, reconsider. Never let someone get the better of you like that. For all your smarts that you have showen on all your posts, I think you will agree with me. If not now, in the near future. We all hope you change your mind. If not, please don't let anyone ever make you feel this way in the "real world". People are too ignorant. I think you will rise above it.

Take sometime to chill, then come back. Just think of all the "newbies" screaming for help, and all the times they have been sent to use your guides. You really are needed, think on it don't be too hasty.

Yo bbmayo, 1 less michigan fan here at AD now!!!!!! LOL
Just teasing, I always enjoy reading your posts. You are up there with scubapete and ddp as one of my mentors!
You have so much to offer everyone here and we'd hate to see you leave. Whatever decision you make,whether it is to take time off to cool off or retire with dignity,LOL, I hope you the best in life. This would trully be a loss for AD. You are one the finest assets here. I hope you do decide to come back and have some more laughs. You can also gang up with scubabud on bashing my BUCKEYES!
Good Luck Buddy.

Enjoy the vacation, buddy. Maybe I'll take one too, in a while.
I'm sure azmunch is another member who has been banned before or is too much of a pussy to reply under his normal nick.

Hi Everyone, I guess I have to quit leaving town on the weekends. I get back and see a second post from a higher member leaving the forum. This is the second one in less than a week I have posted to. I usually have some idea on what happened but this time I'm completely lost and maybe its better that way. I just don't like seeing anyone leave that has made a excellent effort to help the forum. I myself have almost signed off from here 2 times but with some suggestions from other members through PM's to hang in there I decided to stay on.
BBMAYO, As I said above I don't know what happened or with what member or members your problem is with. It not any of my business. My suggestion is similar to those in the other posts. Hang in the background for a while as a cooling off period. Maybe PM the others involved and try to work it out. If you don't want to do it directly maybe go through one of the Mods. I know its not their job but I'm sure they will help if possible. There shouldn't be a problem that can't be worked out. The main focus of this forum is to help others. You have been a big help to many so we don't want to loose you or any other of the good members. There are always a few I wouldn't miss but Neph, Flip, Herbsman and the other mods will get them in time. Best suggestion I can give you as someone thats already been there is sit back and relax for a time and see what happens. Its still your call.
Best of luck either way you decide to go.
Jerry

bbmayo thanks for all the great advice. I am a newbie on AD who has been using the site for quite some time. I have never had to post a question because of the guides and threads I read. With the help of you and a few others I am quite compent at dvd back-up. It is truly sad that a few people will keep you from doing something you obviously love to do. Best of luck in the future.

Screw This....don't quit dude!
Seriously, you want to know who was the FIRST person to help me on aD...it was you! And dude, without your guidance and help, I would probably STILL have been fighting the issue.
Your posts kick @ss and everytime you write, I know alot of us gain mass knowledge from your posts.
Dude, this is totally sucking now...because I know how you feel. I don't post much in aD either, but utilize the time in the irc chan. If you have to stop posting, just do so like everyone has been saying, for a little while. Come hang out in the chan. with us and then come back to it.
Don't let people get on your nerves around here. That is as much advice I can give you.
BTW...thanks again for your help and just know that alot of us will be sad if you ultimately decide to leave. But please reconsider.

Hey BBMayo,
You don't know me (long time lurker, but I don't post alot), but I've read quite a few of your posts over time. It's always seem like you have a genunine interest in helping people, which is what has impressed me the most.
If you want to still keep in contact with the some of the Afterdawn people, drop in and lurk on #ad_buddies (unofficial AD chat channel).
It's on: irc.stormchat.org #ad_buddies
or copy/paste this link if you have an IRC Client
"irc://irc.stormchat.org/ad_buddies"
Or if your not an IRC'er, CJC and I did a javachat up for #ad_buddies
http://adbuddies.ccsau.info/
Some of the regulars that hang out in there are Dela, Darthnip, Xian, Mattrage (send the kids out to play in the street and chat sometime, dude...hehe), carefree, Cozza, Cyprien, VenomX05, the list goes on....
and a whole lot of others pop in and out all the time.
Maybe after chilling in the channel for a while, you'll get the urge to post again, and if not, just chat on in the channel...hehe.

i've only been here 6mths and it's a shame i don't see some of the same (long-termers) names very often (that i saw posting here a lot when i joined up i mean). But i'm always pleased when i come across posts from bbmayo or any of the other long-termers as there's always plenty of very good advice and experience in them. I did debate something once (can't remember what it was) with bbmayo and i regretted it at the time (no malice involved i just saw things differently in whatever the subject was. If i recall i was incorrect in whatever i'd said anyway).
Anyway i do see how guys like bbmayo get p*ssed off with being got at so often, there's far too much bickering goes on. I'm not gonna compare myself with bbmayo or any other long-termer for a minute, but i do hang out here a lot, post a lot, and the other day i was being heckled in a thread. I stood my ground and the person in question was on his 2nd warning, however i thought what's the point, all you do is try to help ppl and some snot-nosed know-it-all takes you on when there's either no reason or they're just an idiot.
Over-explained as ever probably, but to bbmayo and the other long-termers (and new-termers that post here helpfully and incessantly) - keep up the good work and thanks for the tons of old posts that ppl like me read often when we get stuck

I would hope that as one of the relatively newer folks that are on AD I never offended someone to the point of wanting to leave. Granted sometimes I try to help, ask pertinent questions and get as much info so the more experienced members can come along sort the issue and help. Something everyone should look at is the 'veteran' members take alot of their personal time to get you up and running and even if you post thank you that means their time here is not in vain. Secretly ~:) I have been referring to bbmayo's guides and with some success have a better understanding of properly using software to backup. There also have been 2 members who have helped me with media issue and now I use ty (had a bad run-in with verbs). The mods, admins, senior members or any of us don't get paid for this. Even if I am over stepping my boundaries I will take a stand and say thank you not only for allowing me to join this site but also for helping me get past the horrible memory of dvd xcopy platinum withdrawal. I thought I knew it all when it came to backing up but once they went belly up AD put me on the right track to successful backups. One day I hope to be able to be technically as proficient with backup software and media as each of you are. On a closing note remember there is no I (eye) in TEAM.
Thanks for the guides bbmayo I even saved them to my desktop ~:))

yes bbmayo we hate to see you leave , your guides are the best and you have helped countless people out and you will be VERY missed. but i understand if things in here are getting to you its just not worth it, maybe you will reconsider in a month or so and come back or maybe not and move on to something more postive for yourself, which would def. be best if you feel that way. DO WHATS RIGHT FOR YOU and maybe this site can learn something from this and make some changes that will help good people like you from leaving again. but sometimes thats what it takes for someone to say the heck with it and leave for things to improve. lets hope we can all learn from this and things maybe will be better down the road. GOOD LUCK and god bless you bbmayo

NEWSFLASH
Ummm.... he's been gone for almost 2 months now. No need to ask him to stay anymore.
But I think there's really no worries, as I have a hunch he's hanging around under a different user name.
