    It was actually because of a case of hero worship and adoration
    I've got nothing against Hero worship. The more ladies I see on their knees, the better.

    All kidding aside, GK I've enjoyed your writing style here on this site. I think when I was a newer member, I got caught up in the hero worship, but I think I toned it down hopefully. If I did anything to upset or offend you in anyway, I apologize.

      Oh, GK, I shall miss your posts, but I completely understand the reasons behind your decision. I wish you the very best of luck.

      And thank you for one last excellent post. Your commuting tales are the best.

            Damn shame some people can't leave well enough alone.
            Indeed. It does seem that some people exist soley to cause trouble for others.

            Your posts were always enjoyable, GK. It's always amusing to see your battle of wits with your unarmed opponents. I wish you the best of luck in future endeavors.

              I was one of those who inadvertently caused trouble for Gravekeeper.
              I can't speak for the others but I intended no ill towards him and would consider myself a fan of his writing.
              I followed a link to youtube and in a moment of stupidity posted something along the lines of wow you really are as bad as Gravekeeper said.
              I have no idea what else transpired.
              I once again apologize for any trouble I have caused Gravekeeper and this site.

                Personally I hope the offenders were banned. No one should be allowed to get away with threatening behavior.
                The members weren't banned because they didn't actually threaten anyone. They made a stupid move that put GK's anonymity at stake.

                And, as you have said, nobody should be able to get away with threatening behaviour:

                Can we tone it down a bit?

                I realize people are upset, but the people responsible are still members of the site, and we don't allow personal attacks on each other, no matter how boneheaded another's acts may be.

                It was an impulsive, thoughtless moment, and as the member has said, it was not done to cause any harm to GK, even if that may have been what transpired.

                So, let's leave the lynch mob mentality at the door and move on.

                Too tired of living and too tired to end it. What a conundrum.

                  People in Nunavut have been trying to get him to drink for years now and have been unsuccessful. What could you possibly do that could work?
                  Ah, but you see -- they've been driving him to drink.... I would just drive him to a bar...Or a certain friend of mine's house who used to be a bartender, same net effect.

                    GK, as you can tell your digests will be sorely missed. But whatever you do as far as your future endeavors go, I wish you all the luck in the world.

                      Wow.

                      That really sucks.

                      Although I totally understand your reasons for sporadically posting I will miss you. I have always gotten a laugh from your posts, and have shared them with others who also got a kick out of them. You have helped me find the humor in even the worst of customer sucktasticness. I wish you luck in your future endeavors.

                          Man, that sucks. But you gotta do what works for you. Best of luck in your writing and I hope one day you succeed in that career change, if only to save the population of a certain Northern population.

                          So long, Gravekeeper, your weekly updates will be missed. ^^

                              There is only so much the system can do, this is not the site nor the mod's fault.

                                I'm sorry to hear this. I'm a lurker, and your posts were a large part of why I visited. I even went back and read all the old ones. Anyway, I wish you luck in your future endeavors!
