| Just letting you know that I just sent you an e-mail. Part of the e-mail regards a time-sensitive issue so I would request you take a look as soon as you can. Thanks - ] 04:55, 23 April 2006 (UTC)Rogerman | |||
| My comments here will be short and to the point: I'm no longer taking part here. I have received an astounding amount of support, especially by email, but it's time to go. I tried to walk away in August, and managed to do so for quite a while, but I eventually came back, because of the many requests I received urging me to return. Many of you have written to ask me to not leave, to not give up what I have here, but I'm afraid it's time to make a clean break. | |||

| I've been e-mailed by another user about events on that site. Do you want me to weigh in and support your account of events which I know to be true? As a well known athiest I'm obviously not part of the so called "cabal" and as an ex-system manager these time wasters drive me nuts. My gut feeling is to ignore them as much as poss as you can never kill a good conspiracy story but if you think it would help to have an "outsider" back you up i'm happy to do so.

| :I wouldn't waste your time. Trying to meet conspiracy theories with common sense and/or the truth won't do anything to change the people inclined to believe conspiracy theories, and will end up wasting your time.

R E T I R E D
This user is no longer active on Misplaced Pages.
My comments here will be short and to the point: I'm no longer taking part here. I have received an astounding amount of support, especially by email, but it's time to go. I tried to walk away in August, and managed to do so for quite a while, but I eventually came back, because of the many requests I received urging me to return. Many of you have written to ask me to not leave, to not give up what I have here, but I'm afraid it's time to make a clean break.
I ask that the first steward to see this message please remove my various flags from this wiki, as well as from Meta, Commons, and Wikiquote, and remove the bot flags from my bots, which of course will no longer be running. My tools will be taken down shortly. I had planned to delete my user-space myself, but I don't want anyone to think I was going on a rampage, so instead, I ask that one or more administrators who are friends please delete the 288 pages that form my userspace (leaving only my userpage and this talk page).
I've enjoyed my time here, and done much good work; my time, however, is over, and leaving is the best thing for me and for Misplaced Pages. I walk away happy to be free to go about other things. I hope others will refocus the energy they have spent the past few days in defending and denouncing me to make something here at Misplaced Pages better.
