Was it something I said?..
You’ll be missed while you’re gone. Don’t stay away too long.
I have never been sure if I like you or not; but I respect the Hell out of you. And in the end I think that counts more to saying what you got done here. Good luck Bone.
Damn. I feel like it’s a continual drain. FWIW, you were a good Mod IMHO, though honestly I feel that most of the Mods on this board are and have been exceptional. I, for one, will be sorry to see you go in that role, and hope you’ll stick around as a poster at least.
Yes. Please do. You do a fine job, Bone, of representing even-tempered, thoughtful (not reactionary), Conservatism. As a liberal, I’d love to see more of that around here. I hope you will continue as a Poster.
Good luck, Bone.
I know I’m a pain in the ass at times, but I always thought you were fair.
Thank you for your time in the barrel, it’s a tough gig. Hope you stick around.
I tried being the Canadian that was underrepresented on the I Hate Canadians message board. Tough gig.
Looking forward to you returning as another line participant, Bone, you are very much one of the good ones – and yes, there ***are ***good ones, dammit.
Bone, I want to add my voice to what others have said; I hope you continue to post here.
Please.
Because there are quite a few others among us who also want spirited, honest, and mutually respectful debate, who are very interested in understanding especially perspectives that we greatly disagree with. Okay … a few at least!
Your voice would be missed.
I hope you stick around as a poster. Diversity includes having people with conservative viewpoints, and I would hate for the SDMB to become (more of?) a liberal echo chamber.
Good luck Bone.
My guess is we won’t see bone and maybe others who are tired of obvious double standards. I’ve been wrong before though.
You’re American to the bone, Bone, and you represent the best American tradition of forthright and free discussion, a tradition which is sadly under attack now both on this board and beyond. I regret your decision to quit but I entirely understand it. I do hope you continue to post here.
Being a mod is a lousy job; thanks for all your efforts, Bone.
Not that I follow things that closely, but I did seem to occasionally see Bone…straining, let’s say, to be even-handed of late, so I’m not totally surprised that he might bow out. Eh, mMod can be a pretty crap job especially at the current rate of pay. I hope he continues on as a regular poster, though. He always struck me as a thoughtful guy, even if he had views I may disagree with. Best of luck, buddy.
Truthfully, I can’t improve upon this sentiment.
Wherever you go, take care.
Another vote for this sentiment. The board can always use another smart poster.
I thought you were a great mod. No qualifiers.
I miss you already, Bone.
