A big problem with the net is that we can't come round and have a beer with you or say c'mon wot's up, but you know as well as we do that there is no winner if you pack your bags and go.
       Wherever you are stick with us because I'm sure you can teach us and can also learn from us, so if you're reading this, we dont want anyone to leave.

Hi Meldrew
I've never taken an active part in the photo restoration board but often look at the work the members do and often see your postings on the odd board, please, please don't leave us, one notices that some rootschatters are more active than most and you seem like one of the more active, what will people do without you, and why should one crusty, miserable and ungrateful 'moron' spoil it for you. If I were you I'd stick around just like a thorn in the side.
Come on everyone lets look after our own, make him stay......................
PLEASE DON'T GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE'D MISS YOU SO!

Having put my "wounded pride" in my pocket, and with the outstanding support of many members, I shall continue my meagre efforts. Having taken some advice, I understand the best way to beat the bully is to show them you will  not give in to their overbearing ways.

I have found Rootschat, and especially the Pictures - most therapeutic. As a carer 24/7 it is great to have such a supportive group of real friends  in the cyber world - as caring tends to be a lonely occupation.

Mike

Hi Meldrew

Thank goodness you have changed your mind. Another sign of a great person. I must correct you on one point, your postings are not meagre, you are a valued member of the forum. OK you may not be an expert yet but neither are alot of the rest of us.

Everyone has their part to play so get back to the restorations and enjoy Rootschat again. I for one enjoy seeing what you do.

Well done with the talk I bet you brightened up alot of peoples day.

Glad we were able to change your mind Smiley

Here is a post I placed on another forum board (nothing to do with photo restoration) ... but I think it still applies here ....

Quote
One of the things I also like about the forum is that it brings together a community that doesn't discriminate on the basis of age, gender, ethnic background, religion, sexuality, occupation etc ... etc ...

All of us are here with a common purpose ... but all as individuals building our web-sites in our own particular niche ...

If only the rest of the world could adopt such a common goal ...


In this case it is not building web-sites ... but pursuing our own photo restoration efforts ... Smiley

Kind Regards,

Gary Wilkinson
