You know full well we love you dearly, and that you are a vital part of our community.
I think many of us understand that this forum is far from the most important issue in your life right now. That you've taken a sequester is sorrowful, but understandable. Personally, I don't buy into your chagrin at some of the discussion points being the cause of your separation, because you're tougher than that.
In my view, real life struggles are causing you deep and unendurable stress, and so pinpricks that you may feel in the forum become irritants you do not have the time to deal with.
And that's perfectly normal.
I know you will recover, and be strong again, because you aren't the kind to let life beat you down. You may get a few blows to the chin that put you on your knees, but that's some way off the full 10 count.
Take it easy...we are all your friends and wish you only well. I know you'll come back, because I know you care for us too. And you will be welcomed.
Good luck in meeting the difficult challenges in your path. You will overcome them all, eventually.
In the meantime, we, your friends, will keep a candle burning in the window.
damn, captain.... that was nice. i didn't think you had it in ya..... well done.
I want our Renee back!

She is deadskinmask.
I wish you treated her better, Spectre. Anyway, nice letter to her. I hope she does come back.
Cool? She's so beyond cool.

We all do Azhya, but if she needs a break, I understand.

Fash, I treated her just fine, and she knows it.
Do not judge on what you read in the forum...it may not be anything but theatrics.
On the other hand, we may be serious combatants...who knows?
Trust me on this...she is taking a break because of real life issues. Forum banter runs off her like an egg from teflon.
She will come back when she regains her strength. And I'll be the first she will lambast and abuse.

Yes, I agree she will be back when she wants to be here again..
And right now she has more important priorities.
Real life issues have also beaten me to a pulp more than once. Thank God I'm still here today. I'm grateful for hope, supportive family and friends, and sheer determination to fight on. This too shall pass, as the saying goes. We are stronger than we realize.
And Azh, we know you've had a hard time. We are here for each other whether we want to admit it or not.
This forum has been a source of support for me as well and I will be ever grateful.

Did you take a break from forums too Azhya?
Yes, Fash. I took breaks, some longer than some. I don't announce it though. Heheh.
Real life has impacted us all.
The forum gives us a refuge. An escape from the maelstrom our lives become enmeshed in. Sometimes its a good thing, but not always...forums can be capricious and somewhat unsympathetic at times.
But people are people...and if we are in distress, for the most part you will receive comfort and understanding here.

It likely reinvigorated you when you came back..
I think Renee will be back too, at least I hope so.

I've had a hard time when times were tough, yes. Like everyone, I've had both good fortune and bad luck too but one just has to get up and go, no pity parties. It's quite a feeling to look back at the bad times and know you can laugh about it now even though it is not funny. I am grateful for the tumultuous times because they toughened me for sure.

My guess is that you've had a lot more good fortune than bad AA.

Oh, I don't know about that, Shen, but thanks. I think it's like winning the Stanley Cup. Sometimes I win the cup, sometimes I advance to the next round but don't win the cup, and sometimes I don't even make the playoffs. Hehehehe.
That was very nice of you Spec, I hope Renee reads this and sees how much we all care for her.
I still miss our Renee terribly :(

Pshaw...she can't hold a candle to me.
Why else would she run away!!! She's frightened to return because she knows I'll kick her ass again.
I never liked the bickering between her and Socks. I don't care what it was truly about but it was just too much for me. I did not like what Socks wrote about her. I hope she will rejoin us.
What about what she wrote about ME?
Oh yeah, I forgot about that part. Heehee. I did not like how you two were putting each other down. I think we should start a trend here, no put downs. Can we stand that?
But of course.
But beforehand, you may just want to be sure that people aren't simply playing roles for fun and entertainment, and although you see shots being fired, and blood flowing, nobody is actually being hurt.
Nobody is actually being hurt is debatable.
Well, special effects these days can be terribly convincing.
If she does come back, maybe Spec could hold his tongue a bit sometimes and not be so harsh? I know she's tough but I don't know how being called the same thing so many times can't be hurtful. Just saying....
They tease each other in jest. I know Spec has a great deal of respect for Renee.
I do?
Hah!!
She's mah biatch!!!
You can't hide that you adore her :P
Why can't they just speak nicely to each other then?

This is flaming as it is meant to be. It's meant to be funny and make the other person laugh. I can't tell you the number of times I've burst out laughing reading those two rib each other.
I only speak for myself. I am quite fed up with it. It's not the sort I find funny, that's why.

Requests for pics, my Facebook pages, seeking advice on a variety of personal issues.
She is obsessed.
Haha, I bet it's the other way around Spec!

My tribute to Renee. I posted three videos in The Pulse. She always posted videos in threes.
I only know Renee from here but I miss her, if you can believe that. And, for some strange reason, I feel her pain too. I've been there too and surely others have as well. Life can be cruel. Some times are sweet and then comes bitter, then sweet again, then bitter again. It's a cycle, isn't it? Hugs to Renee. I hope she joins us again. acc_hugz
I miss her every day Az. I too hope she comes back soon.
I don't even know what exactly is going on but I can sense the enormity and impact of it. Every one deserves to be happy in the end.
Whatever she's up to I hope she's doing well, wish her all the best and wish her back as well.

True. That is obvious
And, 'sides, he's her biatch

Renee is very lucky to have friends like she has in the people here. I'm sure she will appreciate all the well wishes and support sent her way.
We luvs our Renee!!!!!
She's one of the toughest online chicks I know. Dammit Renee! Get your butt back here!
She ain't so tough. She gets out of line, I slap her ass.
And she rips off yours and makes you eat it haha
I beg to differ.
She knows what happens if you fuck with me.
Ohh Spec Renee kicks your ass every time :laugh3:
LIES!!!
She fears me.
Where is she? I've run her out of Dodge, and if she comes back she'll get more ass whoopin'.
And that's a LOT of whoopin'.
Awwww you miss her too!
She knows who's boss.
