Is that why SS left? I mean, I can definitely understand. Just seems like going back through the old threads, he had been around for quite a long time, I would find it difficult to leave a forum that I was not only heavily involved in, but modding as well. Then again, if you have crazies like that who actually show up and track you down, well, that probably IS a good reason to say it's not worth it.

He left when things got crazy about Gruden, Cousins, Griff - the shit was hitting the fan for the Redskins, and on here. You can imagine the comments on here about RG-3. He said he needed to take a break for a while. There was just insanity flying around in here. I wish I could remember the thread.

It's just funny though, because reading back through the old threads and the ones in the hell forum, I think the forum has always had a tendency to get kind of crazy when something big happened. Just what I seemed to gather at least. Hopefully his taking a break is just that, not a permanent vacay.

Yeah I hear you. Again I wish I could remember the thread that garnered his exit. Lol. If I had time to dig i would - maybe Matty or Schneed or someone would be able to find his last post easier. Let's just say I was not shocked. It was getting really stupid.
I am still holding out hope he will come back too!

Re: I Got All Sorts of Warpath Questions

So it was April 2015 and in a matter of days my 2nd child was born, my mother passed away and I began a new job. All three required much of my attention. Most surprisingly all the work that was (still is involved) in dealing with my mother's estate.

So to be clear, it was my own personal life and responsibilities that led me to stop posting on here. It wasn't any thread or post (although there was a stretch when things had settled down a bit that I was on here but the posts were all paragraph-long back and forths between just two of you). I let Matty know in late 2015 that with everything going on I just couldn't really contribute to the Warpath anymore and offered to relinquish my moderator title. Matty was kind enough to leave me with a Moderator Emeritus title

As for the personal threats that one poster made against me. Yeah it sucked, but I stayed on long after that incident. I'm still around on the interwebs (in places I kind of need to be for work), still talking Skins and sharing info when I can. But unfortunately I just don't have the time I used to that would allow me to be a regular contributor here anymore.

I'm pretty sure the Moderator Emeritus is a lifetime title. Doesn't get more longterm than that

I give it about a 45% chance at the moment. Scot and Jay are on the same page. Think others may need a little more convincing

Good to hear from you! Good luck with the kids!

Sorry for your loss.

Congratulations on your second child, and I hope your new job is going great! Sorry to hear about your mother.
Even a part time contributor would be great! Maybe like a Sunday evening Smootsmack question and answer / meet and greet thread. Keep you in one place so that you can maximize your time here.

SmootSmack, I'm glad you are back. After going back through the old threads and reading some of your old posts and hearing from the other members here, it feels as if I have "known" you as long as these guys have, and I have only been a member here for a short while. So, glad that this thread was able to get ya to come out and let everybody know you're doing well. I am sorry to hear about your mother's passing, but happy to hear about your new addition to the family.
