**Brewha** is named after beer? I always thought it was a Vampire:Masquerade Reference. It’s a shame you’re leaving **Brewha**. I barely knew ya. Remember what Sam Carter said: “The only way to save the agency is for the good people to stay” ---

Sorry to see you go. Those last couple of Days in the Mafia game were very entertaining to watch. And, like many others have said before, maybe you just need to have a sabbatical from the place… and/or need to stay out of this forum, for instance. ---

You certainly can be a persuasive bunch, can’t you? I’m honestly surprised at how this thread turned out and even more surprised how many Dopers even know who I am much less would rather I stay on here. Fine! You all win! Truthfully, I kinda feel silly now. I’m not the type of guy that really likes spotlight that this thread has put me in. And, if I rejoin now, I feel that I may be looked at like an attention whore that just wanted everyone to notice me. Oh well, I’ll deal with the ridicule if it comes to that. I’ve come to realize that the information and the entertainment that I have gotten does outweigh and of the bad stuff that I can easily ignore. And to curtail any more embarrassing warm fuzzys that may be sent my way, I request a Mod to close this thread at their convenience. Here’s to another year! Hopefully we won’t be having this conversation in 09/08! ---

At the request of the OP, we’ll close the thread. \*Ironic–you request your thread be closed about 2:00PM EDT. The Board takes a crap about 5:00 PM. :eek: I, along with all the other posters to this Board, hope the new owners will address the problems the Board has. But, in your wisdom, you now think the problems are worth the cost. I agree. Welcome back. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/in-which-i-bid-the-dope-adieu/418691.md?page=3)
