He said he wasn't going to post.   There's still useful bits to the forums.

I'll miss his commentary though

As someone who has gotten temp banned elsewhere, my rage didn't last. He'll either walk away or come back to posting. Odds are he'll check out for updates even if just for that which will keep him around. Are we really going to put odds on him resurrecting his posting? The dude who's persona is a vampire? At some point you have to accept going to a forum everyday to only not post isn't really a hill worth dying on. You either come back posting or you walk.

I'm sure he'll be lurking in the shadowy corners of the forums.  It's kind of his thing, after all.

I've got infractions in the past. Don't let it kill your vibe Snarks

I'm going to stop with the Memeposting for a minute.

FWIW judging by his profile page ol' Snarks is still Lurking (with a capital "L") and visiting every few hours.
Since posting this leaving thread he's also pipped the 10k "reactions received" reputation mark... and it's probably worth drawing attention to the fact that only 229 of those 10k reactions (less then 2.3%!) have been negative.

@Snarky - If this is the first time in your >8.4k posts that you've been told by someone that you've "crossed a line" then I think that deserves some (blood)cake rather than a self imposed posting ban. You're far more likely to be mobbed by hugs here than by pitchforks. If you're enjoying the break from posting then great, but if not then dry your undead eyes and get your crusty posterior out of the coffin and back behind the keyboard already.

My days feel empty and joyless without my daily ( and sometimes multiple daily ) doses of Snark, don't make a Marine beg....

 

Ok, I'll beg.....

Please come home

I haven't even seen the old Bissig in game either.

Alas. I have had so many bitter disagreements with several players on these forums. I did get a warning once to "chill". 

I can't remember if I chilled, or just proceeded to insult the player in question via DMs. If I did, it was because I honestly felt unreasonably disrespected. I can handle being reasonably disrespected, because I have to be willing to admit I'm wrong, when I'm clearly wrong. But if it's not clear...well, I tend to stick to my guns. 

The forums can be a fun place to visit...but man, sometimes, it's like a bad game of Risk Online. You think you're doing well, then SMACK. You're dead. Someone got your cards, and did a chain kill and won the game. 

I will have to send Snarky an in-game message since he only rarely gets on discord, assuming he sticks with his no more forum visitation policy. 

If anyone has a harsh word to say about Snarky, I promise you, he's really a stand up guy. He only plays a vampire in these forums and in-game. He's a lot like Colin Jost. He's real good at trivia if he knows it. Seriously - Snarky is a renaissance man. He studies German, music, tries to stay in some kind of athletic shape, too. And works a lot to support his feeding habit. 

Granted, it's probably making him look bad if I've got good things to say about him. So I take it all back. He's an evil vampire. Don't trust him.
