A sign off of sorts
My 'Poly friends,

Been on these forums what seems an eternity, and to all things there is an end. Been taking on some changes and along with these is a comitment to make some changes (a comitment at least to myself. To thine own self be true). 'mongst those is to be more productive. Of course that means my favorite addiction, cruising the forums hour after hour will be coming to an end. I must say it has been a blast and I offer my sincere thanks to all who have aided me in the past. Likewise I hope I left everyone here a bit enriched as well since that really is the point of these forums.

I'll likely stop by every once in a great while, but for now

"Vaya con Dios mis amigos"

Sign Me

Ogie, for the last year or so some of the best advice in this forum has come from you. I hope that you'll still stop by as often as possible.

And I hope all the 'changes' for you are good ones.

Seconded. I remember when I first joined back in September, you were always one of the first to offer advice, and I'm sure many newbies and veterans alike have taken ideas and inspiration from your works.

Do drop by once in a while, you know how much we all like a returnee here at 'Poly....

Regards,
Mark

You will be missed greatly, Og!

I know and understand your feeling, though.... Been there, done that...

Once you get over your addiction, you can come back occasionally.
Please, do that!

OO

I was very sorry to see that you won't be around. I really appreciated your informative responses to my many questions when I discovered this site. Your detailed posts were key to my own development as a player and I thank you for your effort in explaining so many game concepts. I do hope that you drop by from time to time and wish you well in your future endeavours. You will be missed.


To the rest of us--


We should try to follow Ogs example of helping any newbies who drop by here. I think that that is what makes this forum so good-- the willingness to share information with new players (and with the semi-skilled such as myself LOL).

You made these (and other) forums fun to visit - we'll miss you.

Take care, and may fortune smile on you.

Ironic that this was zsozso's last post, but not Ogie's.

Simply not as active as I once was. But now that I am offically relocated and have internet access again I can post anew.

PS. Matty sorry to disappoint.

I looked at the last couple of pages of members for some reason and saw zsozso and thought "is he still around?" and looked at his last post.

Sorry, Ogie, I didn't want you to go. I thoroughly enjoy your AC strategy posts.

Not a prob Matty.

I did take about a 6-9 month hiatus aorund that time frame. ( I also said I'ld likely drop by now and again) which for me was quite an effort. Zso unfortunately has been gone much much longer. Wish he would show up now and again. There was a true master.
