    Balance. What the fu@k are you talking about. Balance is relative. If you are buried in what you love, your life is balanced. And I can think of worst things to be obsessed with than Ferraris. Enjoy your new life Dr. Hope you will be back.

    Howdy Dale,

    great post and to me totally understandable.
    I felt the same last year. I have done an limited break at fchat.
    4 weeks no fchat! No reading, no posting, no pm`s.
    Believe me, the first week was very hard & cruel; I felt like a junkie on prohibition.
    But yes, there is a life beside the computer and fchat.
    Good decission , take a BREAK and come back when you are ready and relaxed again. We will miss you badly - but I know the day will come you will be back here where your friends are waiting for you.

    All the Best

    Yours
    Wolfgang

    That post just brought a tear to my eye, as did Robs! I had a Katana wielding Ninja with a deadly PvP reputation, a monopoly on the various rings, bone handled head cutters, other unique items, and led the biggest "wanted" guild on my board.

    I also did my TW stints and loved that Ferengi Dreadnaught. I miss joy of planetary defense and invasion that today's sophisticated games haven't been able to duplicate despite their multi player capabilities. Sure, the Star Wars games are great and Earth and Beyond was a modern day TradeWars, but still second fiddle.

    I joked with my friends someone should setup a MBBS or Renegade board and run the old school classics. It would be more entertaining than reading forums in my spare time.

    Oh, by Dale! :D

    Happy trails to you, until we meet again.

    Just though I'd post something age appropriate.

    Hang around now and then, it won't kill ya.

    I understand every word you say. I think that a lot of the "old" members have the same feelings.

    Good decision! Take a break. Come back whenever you want. :)

    Take care Dale! I'll miss your posts and the experiences and advice you so freely shared.

    I'm hope you'll be back at some point. Take a break, dust off a motorcycle, hit the backroads for the summer and share some more of your adventures when you return.

    All the best to you!

    Hey Dale,

    As you know, "au revoir" and "auf wiedersehen" actually mean "till we see you again". There will be a next time of course, and we'll look forward to hearing from you again one day when the time is right.

    In the meantime, go visit Mom in P'cola, spend some more of that great quality time with your son who's growing up too fast and take a few more long drives in whatever you happen to be driving at the time. When you do, be sure to write 'em up in that classy way you always do.

    You're one of the guys we all look forward to hearing from.

    Adios, amigo and take care,

    Mark
