If this is about the name change , it is best that you do take a break.
While I feel it was a little out of line for you to ask,(if that indeed is
what this is all about) you did it in the nicest possible way. It also got
blown out of proportion by the general Lugnet populace, but anyone who can't
handle negativity or criticisim in a public forum needs to get out for
while. True, some people's ideas are garbage, it's best to ignore them than
feel obligated to respond to every post like it was attack on you. I think
you are taking this too personally, this all would have gone away by itself
in time.

Hi everyone -
I just thought I'd post to say that I am leaving LUGNET for a while.  I never
understood why people leave this place to take breathers until this week, but
believe me when I say I need a BIG one.

The problems, the garbage here is just too great to deal with and keep a cool
head.  This place needs help.

I'll still be around, of course, plugging away like I have for years on various
projects and ideas.  I'll keep working away at the LDraw site, and the NILTC,
the new train club I'm a part of, will grow.  But I don't need to bog myself
down with the garbage here.

I'm always available at tim@zacktron.com.  Please email me if you feel like it,
either just to chat, or for LDraw developments.  I'll push forward with the
formal org and the tutorials and everything like usual.

And its really a shame, cause I do have a lot of friends here.  I do not know
when I'll be back.

-Tim
