It was quite clear that he had not played since he was rumbled, it was also quite clear from your play history that you had not either. That i looked at a bit later in day so below bold seemed like sense to me.
He friended you pre expulsion, you log on much later and accept the flashing light. Not sure how someone booted from game can still show in your friend requests but it must.
Now, folks who liked Dennis remember yours and his exploits and they were mainly the ones who got the hump with your gofundme stuff, they were also upset when you were posting non stop on the Andyson memorial thread with your ideas. Thats been sorted now, its being ran the way folks wanted it to be. Even i had other ideas but accepted the "organisers" wanted to do it their way......and i nod my head and say good luck to them. Its quite easy.
This is a game, folk make friends. In my opinion more in their clubs , thats certainly the case for me, barring a few other individuals on here. Real life can get in the way, folk i was fond of have actually died recently, one being my good mate Shovlovin (Brian). Others in our club have had major major issues to deal with, i feel sad for them as i feel sad for you, but toward them i have a ni on family/friend bond, with you i dont but i still wish you well.
I wont respond to any questions/responses as i dont do that now, but good luck.

Departure? Don't know what dictionary you're using, but it doesn't appear to be the same as mine, or many others, that people use.
You said " statements like this are not even worth responding to." But yet you do, by attacki ng a really good person, further derailing this thread! You don't want your name dragged through the garbage, but yet you jump into it, with both feet, knowing that someone is going to hammer you. Please allow me to be the first, to again, wish you a fond fairwell, ( Fairwell=" used to express good wishes on your departure, good bye, so long. ) and good luck!
Sorry people, but I can't stand by watching good people being attacked!

Being the center of drama is quite addicting to some people. I thought this nonsense died with that last 4%.
Two weeks later............

LMFAO.... Priceless.......
Spoiling your WGT departure? You treating this like a retirement party..... something akin to a Monarch relinquishing the throne? LMMFAO

Face it dude..... you're not going anywhere. You've got NOTHING to abdicate. This is ALL you have....and we all know you'd beat your mother with a rubber hose and unplug her life support just so you could power up your phone and hit the WGT Forum.

If I had a phone . You might be right .
But since I don't . And I have no way to play . Not able to get on the game client . There is really no reason to stay .
It took me several months to get the strength to step away from the fantastic Valley of the Sun Casual Club . My baby . Of which I couldn't be prouder . A GR8 success and a pleasure of 4 years that could not be matched . You would have no idea .
If my presence here in WGT ( without gameplay ) was a welcome and friendly one . This departure would be even more difficult .
But as things are what they are . Very soon I will have forgotten completely about this place . I now spend less than 30 minutes per week here . There is nothing favorable to draw me here . My last 7 posts have not been posted . And they were of a friendly nature . So it won't be hard at all .

What's the difference between the first and last one?

Been here a long time, have read many goodbye forever entries. Only to see in some cases in only a matter of a few days, that they are back, or never truly left. In a small group are those who have been absent for years, but come back. I fully understand that were I a CC owner, or a player with close personnel ties with others that a final statement is a worthy thing to do. I do not understand all the drama that some want to be a part of on their departure. It screams LOOK AT ME ! PAY ATTENTION! I'M LEAVING NOW ! It all smells of cheap self promotion. Get over yourself. Just say good bye to your friends and be done with it. Should something untoward happen to prevent your final statement, you should have one of your friends you can count on make a short statement in your stead. Still there should not be great drama attached. I have witnessed the sudden and un-expedited departure of persons, who in their time at WGT made a difference, to the good of everyone, and others who were well known or greatly liked by many. In those few cases great sorrow and regrets were displayed, as only that which was due that persons memory. No drama, anguish yes, but no drama. Only my opinion and my nickle.

@p☆☆☆, please only give us a pennies worth, the rest isn't worth 2 cents, let alone a nickle.

Well, when I first began making comments on the forums, I thought my words were worth more than the common 2 cents, as that phrase was being over used by many contributers to the forums, so in my thinking the next coin of reference was the nickle and there begins the tale of "My Nickle".....Got a problem with that? Take it up with your spritual leader. Refuse to argue, or clarify my use of a sign off to you, or anyone else. MY NICKLE...

Word of the day: PRONOIA – a strange, creeping feeling that everyone’s out to help you.
