Props being removed had nothing to do with lag. It was because they were going to update VB to the newest one so they had to remove them before doing so. Then they never updated it from what I can tell.

But yeah regardless of any of that this site really has started to suck on the Admin end in the last few months. I mean Sicc has the site go down and lag here and there before but now it's just like all day every day.

Dear Co-Brehs and Mods,

As many of you probably know, today is my last day. But before I leave, I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know what a great and distinct pleasure it has been to type “Today is my last day.”

For nearly as long as I’ve posted here, I’ve hoped that I might one day leave this board. And now that this dream has become a reality, please know that I could not have reached this goal without your unending lack of support. Words cannot express my gratitude for the words of gratitude you did not express.

I would especially like to thank all of my mods both past and present but with the exception of the wonderful *********: in an age where miscommunication is all too common, you consistently impressed and inspired me with the sheer magnitude of your misinformation, ignorance and intolerance for true talent. It takes a strong man to admit his mistake – it takes a stronger man to attribute his mistake to me.

Over the past seven years, you have taught me more than I could ever ask for and, in most cases, ever did ask for. I have been fortunate enough to post with some absolutely interchangeable mods on a wide variety of seemingly identical projects – an invaluable lesson in overcoming daily tedium in overcoming daily tedium in overcoming daily tedium.

Your demands were high and your patience short, but I take great solace knowing that my posts were, as stated on my annual review, “meets expectation.” That is the type of praise that sends a man home happy after a 10 hour day, smiling his way through half a bottle of meets expectation whiskey with a meets expectation blunt. Thanks Breh!

And to most of my peers: even though we barely acknowledged each other within these forum walls, I hope that in the future, should we pass on the street, you will regard me the same way as I regard you: sans eye contact.

But to those few souls with whom I’ve actually interacted, here are my personalized notes of farewell:

To ****, I will not miss hearing you cry over absolutely nothing while laying blame on me and my co-brehs. Your racial comments about ***** were truly offensive and I hope that one day you might gain the strength to apologize to him.

To **** whom is long gone, I hope you find a board that treats you as poorly as you have treated us. I worked harder for you then any mod in my career and I regret every ounce of it. Watching you take credit for my work was truly demoralizing.

To *****, you should learn how to keep your mouth shut sweet heart. Bad mouthing the innocent is a negative thing, especially when your talking about someone who knows your disgusting secrets. ; )

To ***** , well, I wish you had more of a back bone. You threw me to the wolves with that witch and I learned all too much from it. I still can’t believe that after following your instructions, I ended up getting written up, wow. Thanks for the experience buddy, lesson learned.

*****, I’m happy that you were let go in the same manner that you have handed down to my dedicated cobrehs. Hearing you on the chat last year brag about how great props were going to be for you fellas in upper tier because all of the bands made me nearly vomit. I never expected to see mods benefit financially from the suffering of scores of people but then again, with this board’s rooted history in the slave trade it only makes sense.

To all of the executives of this board, **** and such. Despite working through countless mods that practiced unethical behavior, racism, sexism, jealousy and cronyism, I have benefited tremendously by posting here and I truly thank you for that. There was once a time where hard work was rewarded and acknowledged, it’s a pity that all of our positive output now falls on deaf ears and passes blind eyes. My advice for you is to place yourself closer to the pulse of this board and enjoy the effort and dedication of us “faceless little people” more. There are many great people that are being over worked and mistreated but yet are still loyal not to those who abuse them but to the greater mission of providing excellent customer support. Find them and embrace them as they will help battle the cancerous plague that is ravishing the moral of this board.

So, in parting, if I could pass on any word of advice to the lower recipients (”because it’s good for the board”) in India or Tampa who will soon be filling my position, it would be to cherish this experience because a message board like this comes along only once in a lifetime.

Meaning: if I had to post here again in this lifetime, I would sooner kill myself.

To those who I have held a great relationship with, I will miss being your co-dude-holmes breh and will cherish our history together. Please don’t bother responding as at this very moment I am most likely in my car doing 85 with the windows down listening to Mac Dre.
