As someone who really apreciated and enjoyed gears "company" wit and good humour I will surely miss him and if you ever get a chance to read this gear it was a PRIVELAGE to have you include me in your Buddy list.
Whatever you do mate, take care and stay well. Cheers

Txs for posting the email.
Yes aD can be a little 'addicting'!
@gear79
Take care of yourself and family - that's what really matters. aD will still be here when you want to pop in and say hi! (which I hope you do!)

@gear79, take care buddy. i'm up to my ears in a shedload of personal crap myself of late, that's why i haven't been round here lately, and am moving back onto dry land next week, not overly happy about it and a lot of other things but life's a box of chocolates as they say;
i'll be offline for a day at most and back online in the week when i've got my stuff unpacked, got a lot of posts to catch up on as it is.

Everyone who knows gear knows he's a little crazy but that he is also an intelligent individual who will be able to find a way to deal with what he has going on in his personal life and will be back in no time flat.
Who could stay away from AD anyway??

@GEAR79
I hope you visit this thread as a 'civilian'(LOL) browser...
It was a PLEASURE to know you, i hope you try to at least come back here to say hello. I know how heavy AD can turn out to be in your life, especially when there's people here like you! You didn't have to suspend your account, you could have just left it as it was and nipped in here every now and then just to say you were alive! I LMAO many times with your jokes, i thought we cracked each other up pretty well!
I wish you well, happiness is a must in life, it comes up top in the list... I'm sure you had to do it... Take care of yourself and your family.
Oh, and remember, you have my e-mail addy, if you want to throw a joke around, go for it!

Yeah I did some checkin around about Gear79 and found that out for myself. I didn't know him well, be he was a nice guy. If I use my powers of deduction on that email, I can paint a picture of an individual much like myself. He will be missed. AD is a way of life, but I find it's been consuming too much of mine as well. I've been neglecting studies, school assignements, and hobbies to hang out here. I'll catch up, don't fret. AD is important to me, but the real world is more important. Unfortuantely Gear79 didn't feel like he had a choice in the matter. I feel like that sometimes, but it comes down to self control. If I can quit drinking and smoking, AD's not gonna get the best of me. This site is going downhill what with all the repetitive noob questions. I've met a lot of people and learned a lot here. But for personal reasons, I hope to not be on here as much in the near future. I understand Gear79's decision, and a couple years ago I might've done the same thing in his shoes. Nowadays, I've learned the art of self control.

I asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked if I'd been 'putering',
And I had to answer "yes."
He told me to get off my fanny
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.
I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick...
I was just admiring my work...
I didn't mean to 'click.'
But click, I did, and oops I found
A real absorbing site
That I got So way into...
I was into it all night

Check the previous page for info. If this many people miss Gear79, he must've been a stand up guy. I can only hope the day I make my last post people will have such kind words for me. I'm reminded of some poignant moment in anime where the hero decides to sacrifice himself to protect someone or something important to him. It's sad, but Gear79's still here. Your words of kindness show that. Not to be overly dramatic (it's not like he's dead), but it's still sad. Cheers Gear79! You will be missed!

Yeah that's what I said. It does seem a bit drastic. But I'm sure he has his reasons. It sounds like maybe he made a bit of a rash decision. Really it's not my concern, I wish him well. While we're all here, Gwendolin, Andmerr, aabbccdd, LOCOENG, weazel200, Lethal_B, permiggs, Mik3h, it's nice to meet you. I already know some of you, other's I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. Most of my posts are in the PS2 forums, so I don't get a chance to interact with all of the people listed in this thread. Let me formally introduce myself, I am Tokijin lol. As I've scanned the depths of AD looking for answers to questions, I've read posts by all of you that have been useful to me at some point. Keep up the good work. If we don't all do our best to make AD what is, the non searching noobs will take this site over. I'm not ready to hand AD over to them yet. Cheers to all!

We are above reproach. Only the moderators have the power to stop us. It's kinda fun, people are stunned when you don't know something. So are the media/ripping forums as bad as the PS2 forums with the repetitive, non-searching noobs?
