    So anyway, I think I need to disengage from the place for awhile.

    I'm sure some of you of you will happy to hear this, others less so, but regardless it was fun for awhile.

    Ta for now.

    You never got tired before you were a moderator. You used to be the most knowledgeable person here, until then. As a mod, your posting skills slowly vanished.

    When you come back, why don't you retire the mod gig so your energy, and being the best poster, return.

    Come back soon, Nik. You are a very level-headed poster. I like to hear your opinions.

    Making your way on the web today
    Takes everything you've got;
    Taking a break from all these posters
    Sure would help a lot.
    Wouldn't you like to get away?

    All those night when you've got tons of fights,
    The editing is a "fail";
    And your little angel
    Hung the cat up by it's tail;
    And beer-boys third fiance didn't show;

    Sometimes you want to go
    Where nobody knows your name,
    And they're Sometimes glad you came;
    You want to be where you can see,
    Our troubles are all the same;
    You want to be where everybody knows your screen name.

    Roll out of bed, HCP's wife gives you head;
    The morning's looking bright;
    And your favorite player ran off to Europe,
    And yes he's even white;
    And your admin wants to be a girl;

    Be glad there's one place in the world
    Where nobody knows your name,
    And they're never glad you came;
    You want to go where people know,
    Posters are all the same;
    You want to go where everybody knows your lame.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Hope to see you back soon, nik. I know we've disagreed on some basketball things, but I've always valued your contributions.

    But if it's not fun or, worse, making basketball less fun for you, then you should definitely take a break.

    My sentiments exactly. Your perspective is (and I use that in present tense because I hope you are not gone for good) refreshing. I like the way you see the game. Even if I don't always agree with your logic, your arguments are well stated and I've always considered you as one of the posters who "gets it".
    A lot of times you bring fresh ideas/theories to the board, not some recycled rant you heard on 95.5. I also like your knowledge of the Salary Cap, CBA, Free Agency, trade eligibility, etc. Looking forward to your return.
