My Resignation

Good Evening Fellow B's and Supporters.
I havent liked what has gone on this weekend, I have purpously kept away (For the most) as I know how much it stresses me out.
I started the club when I was having big problems and met some wonderful supportive and passionate people. I was thrilled when we were given our own area and worked very hard in setting the BCSC website up and the BCSC forum.
This area is too easily sabbotaged and mocked. That is not why its here.
One other reason really is that, my problems are far from over, but if I continue to appear on this board all day every day I will never get over this Bankruptcy thing and Ill be thinking of it every time I read or post something, it is something that I want to put firmly in the past in order for me to move on in my own life.
There are lots of people who give far better support and advice than I do. I think its time to hand over the keys. Ill still run the bcsc website and that forum. But I shant be appearing here anymore, I cant handle the stress of what can happen. It gives me that horrible feeling I used to get when I was having trouble with the business... That horrible belly feeling. When insults and accusations are thrown at me when I am not even participating, then its time to end it.
THANK YOU all who has given me support and advice over the months, Im sorry it has come to this.

:sad:
Really, don't go. This is pure madness (not you being upset, just that people are leaving).
I don't know what else to say. You are an integral part of this board and what it's become. It won't be the same without you.:: BCSC #71 but now discharged! ::0 -
Thanks. Ive made the decision.
Also for certain people, please dont think of this as 'attention seeking' as Im readily accused of, It isnt, I just wanted to explain myself.0 -
mike...what can I say?We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will0

I'm sad and dissapointed mike. I don't know what else to say really. I understand that you've made a decision but I wish you would reconsider. You are the backbone of this board, I realise you want to get on with your own life and I respect that, but I feel your decision is more about the insults which have flown around this weekend than a real desire to move on. Would you really be saying this if all had been calm this weekend?
You are not at the end of the road with your journey yet and I do think there will be times when you need a listening ear too. Your experience is so very valuable to the people here, something the likes of tammy will never understand.:A

I'm sad that you felt you had to do that Mike.
But I'm also happy for you if you feel it was the right choice for where you are now. It must be a very bittersweet decision to have to make.
Myself, I'm holding fire on what I decide (although not posting much on MSE) to see which direction things go over here. But that's my personal choice, as this was yours.

I just want to repeat what Toto has said. If you want to move on, then great and I wish you all the luck in the world :beer:
But please don't go if the reason is just a couple of idiots on here. Don't let them get you down, you're miles better than them
