Hmmm … just over 1900 posts. I guess that this is as good a time as any to get this over with …
As much as it pains me to say this, I’m sorry to tell you all that, once I’ve reached my personal "milestone" of 2000 posts, I’ll be leaving the KMC. And I won’t be coming back …
This certainly hasn’t been an easy decision for me to make, and it’s one that I’ve wrestled with for the last few days. But I’ve come to the conclusion that this is the only way forward. Please allow me to explain …
I signed up to the KMC almost a year ago for the flimsiest of reasons {I was looking for spoiler photos for "The Matrix Revolutions"!}; but once I’d looked around a bit, I realised that this was actually a pretty cool place to hang out and chat with others, and so I thought I’d stick around for a bit. And now here I am, and nearly a year has passed …
That’s the problem with the KMC – it’s just too damn addictive! Over the past two months, I’ve made a whopping 800 posts here; it was when I discovered this startling fact a couple of days ago that I realised that this place is simply eating up too much of my time. And I just don’t trust myself to go back to being the "casual" poster that I was in the beginning …
It’s a shame, really; once I realised that I’d be sticking around, I envisaged great things of my time here, like beating yerssot’s monumental post count, as well as twisted delusions of modhood! But even though I didn’t actually achieve any of those things, I’ve had such a fun time here that none of it really matters …

Before I go, I just wanna give a heads up to all the cool and knowledgeable people that I’ve met here in the now sadly neglected Matrix forum {bigups to Korri, JKozzy, and The Omega}, and I wanna apologise to anyone that I ever annoyed with my staunch anti-sequel views!
I realise that I haven’t come here much over the past few months {to my great regret} – but I still like this forum, and would like to know that it will continue well into the future. So I’m urging you all – don’t let it disappear into obscurity!
Adios muchachos,
The Great Governator,
Ahnold

Yeah I get what your saying,this place really can be addictive.you come here to post and you get so cauhgt up talking with your friends in pm messages,that you never end up posting.
Aw shucks. Thank you all for your kind words - heh, I suppose that that ain't making things any easier for me ! Who knows? Perhaps one day, I’ll decide that I can go back to merely posting the occasional remark; and if that happens, I’ll be sure to come back. But ... the realist in me tends to doubt it ...
Thanks to everyone for making my time here such a blast – I’ll miss you all! It was good, people, but as the man says ... nothing lasts forever.
And so then … farewell!

But you see, Mr. Parker - the problem was never to do with spending too much time sending PM's; it's that I simply don't have the time to keep up my large post rate anymore. And I just don't think that I can ever go back to the way things were before.
And that, my friend, is why I am leaving ...
