Ryan,

Sorry to hear of the rough times. My prayers go out to you. You're a stand-up guy. Best of luck.

Tom

Riff Raff tends to offer his opinion with no filter - that is why I get along with him so well. I am the same way.

I think - as Moncha has pointed out - we have all gotten way to emotional on this site at times. But this site is unique and highly valuable. Heck, I sold my VX but still hang around 'cause I may buy another someday and enjoy the banter.

A puiblic apology thread takes a lot of gumption - good job.

Ryan (Little Beast)-- Thank you so very much for your very kind words, and I graciously accept your sincere apology with immense appreciation. It does seem your plate was a bit overflowing with stress, and perhaps I popped out of my gopher hole at the wrong time when you had a loaded shotgun in your hand.

I must admit the recent continued bombardment from the very few ironclad ships on this forum (yes, you know who you are) were starting to wear me down. To the point of me just picking up my play marbles and going home. However, my E-Mail & PM box has been getting full lately of fellow VX members worried about my whereabouts and requesting I return home here on the forum with the rest of my VX family. I hope I can have the Turkey Leg for dinner, because it's my favorite.

I truly realize my postings can be somewhat intimidating as I always write in a "justification style, supported by facts" method. I've discovered this style of writing prevents follow-on questions and educates at the same time. It is not to purposely irritate people, but rather to honestly help with good heartfelt intentions. Yes, some of my postings may appear repetitive; but only due to the fact that the same repetitive questions are being asked from noobie's. Rather than to force them to search, I tend to try to assist on-the-spot.

Again, thank you Ryan (Little Beast) for allowing me the opportunity to come back into your circle of friends. In addition, thank you to all who have posted on this specific thread and for all of your kind private E-Mails and PM's.

Lastly; and most importantly, thank you Scott (Moncha) for creating and especially "maintaining" your backyard playground full of VX kids. Fore without your steady hand on the keel, I am confident some VX kids would go astray. It is purely your guidance that keeps us all between the white lines on the road. Riff Raff

I just love happy endings.... Or happy new beginnings.... or happy occassions... Or whatever this would fall under... I'm just happy we all can work stuff out like civilized people unlike the poor pirate board.

Here's to the VX Family!

Very good to see you back on the forum Riff Raff.
And I would like to add my apologies to yourself, and to Scott, for the dummy spit over skid plate material, and the serious thread jack in which it occurred.
Unlike Little Beast, I don't have any acceptable reasons or excuses, so please just put it down to old age. Let us hope we all live long enough to experience it.

I am proud to be part of a close knit group and/or "VX Family" who genuinely cares about each other through thick and thin. It is a warm and fuzzy we all need in these trying times whether it is relationships, our jobs, and our roller coaster of an economy. My final passing thoughts (or 2 cents) at midnight is nothing but good fortune to the VX Team!!!
