Hi everyone

As a number of members have noted I left the site in the last week. I've also noted the concern some have shown, which I must admit I found touching. 

That being said, let me assure my reasons for leaving were in the main unrelated to the site or any of its members. 

My main reason for leaving is that I am currently dealing with a situation with my ex wife with regards my children. Consequently I need to focus on dealing with this situation, as everyone can imagine I'm under a great deal of stress presently. 

Secondly, I found myself spending an inordinate amount of time here, it was becoming an unhealthy obsession, I was finding myself getting bogged down in debates that were becoming too heated and personal for my liking. So when I decided to leave I just closed my account and slipped away quietly. It's not my style to make a grand exit. I honestly didn't think anyone would notice my absence, certainly not so quickly. So when I left, other than checking up on the site for news about my beloved Eels, my intention was not to come back. However, I couldn't help but notice the concern for my welfare because of my sudden disappearance. That's on me, my apologies if I caused any alarm. I honestly didn't think anyone would care. 

So, I am OK, I'm just dealing with issues in my life that need my full concentration. I genuinely appreciate the concern from guys like Snake, Cosmo, Fong & Frank, amongst others. Let me assure everyone that any conflict I've had with anybody here played no part in my leaving. 

Cheers

  • All the best with it mate, I’m sure you will be back when the time allows. Thanks for all your time spent with this site. Go Parra!
  • Life can be tough Brett about all you can do is put one foot in front of the other. When children are involved it’s that much harder and with that ,all I can say is their will be a point where their in relationships themselves and will better understand the cards life dealt you and your circumstances at this point. They will one day see your point of view and how you act now is what they’ll remember. Be honest and true to yourself and it’ll work out. Maybe not today or even tomorrow, but eventually. Good luck.
  • Brett - thanks for your work in keeping the site going. I for one greatly appreciate it. Hope your personal situation improves

    • Because I found myself spending too much time here, I was neglecting other, more important things in my life. The only way to break that habit is to delete the account altogether.
  • Very sorry to hear about your problems Brett. Take Care mate.
