That really sucks, you were one of my favorite members here and I always cherished the few debates and conversations we would have together (Even if they're few and far.) It's gonna feel real empty without you around and I'm gonna miss you dearly, but I fully understand the circumstances surrounding it and why you had to make the choice, and on that note, may you have a good life my friend, wherever you are in this strange ass world we call Earth, Maybe one day, we'll see each other again on the internet. but for right now... Sayonara, @Angler of Lake Asparagus and thanks for all the good times. You will certainly never be forgotten. https://orig00.deviantart.net/11ff/f/2009/069/0/1/sonic_salutes_you_by_glitchyproductions.jpg
You're not alone; I've had incidents similar to yours in losing my creations. Granted, it never impacted my exploits as an artist in any big way, but it still hurt. I'm dreadfully sorry to hear that you suffered so many losses... I only hope that your "big one" survived the hard drive's death in some form...?
Anyway, enough with my blabbering. Here's to you, chum. Thanks for sticking with us throughout the ages. I'll never forget our times here.
