Your patience serves you well, Grasshopper! Honestly, Iā€™m pleasantly surprised that you responded rationally to my admittedly snarky post. Thank you.

> [@Tastes of Chocolate](#): > > But for some reason, as tomorrow deadline approaches, there are a group of us that seem to becoming rather intolerant and darn right snippy. I think I can speak for the Snippy Contingent, as I am one of them. Itā€™s not people leaving. If you canā€™t afford it, that sucks. If you donā€™t have a card, that sucks. If life wonā€™t allow it, that sucks. If you just donā€™t want to, fine. Youā€™ll be missed. Itā€™s the fuckers posting the melodramatic whines and pleas for martyrdom, the stomping off with their toys and going home, that make me snippy. ---

Yeah after much consideration I think iā€™ll be going too. This board has gotten too pit-ty even in the non-pit forums and the community seemed like it was fractured after teh fee model came up. So for the lst time, thanks for your helps and inspiration, Iā€™ll be moving along now. Bye Opal! Oh and itā€™s the pit so Fā€™KING Subscription Rates ---
