Russ_Boston Out
 

After over 4 years on TOTV the time has come to leave. Things have just gotten too personal lately. I'm sure that I'm partly to blame but that is my nature I guess.

I really appreciate the dozens of friends I've made through this site over the years. I will see you all for golf and pickleball real soon (coming down late August). And Linda and I will be there full time beginning in January hopefully. You know how to reach me (facebook, e-mail etc.)

No need to respond to this thread - I just wanted to say good bye so you didn't wonder why I'm not posting any longer.

Regards,
Russ

I hope you reconsider leaving as you have to much to offer the new folks. I've sent you a PM with further wishes, and hope you're not leaving just because the Yankees took the first game as there's two more. Take care, Jim

Only 80 more posts to hit 4K - and then the sky's the limit!

Stick around and enjoy.

Russ...don't leave...we were just getting to know you!!

Russ resigns and it is front page news. When I resigned a while back, nobody even noticed. On a serious side, Russ will be missed. I think his reasons are deeper than The Red Sox losing to the Yankees.

Russ,

I hope you reconsider and rejoin TOTV in a few weeks or months. TV wannabees and soontobees appreciate the wisdom that the TV veterans offer (at least this wannabee does). Best of luck to you as you and your wife transition to life as Frogs. :wave:

:agree:

:cryin2: I think you should reconsider even though your a RedSox fan. You've brought a lot of good info to this site.:cry::mad:

I hope you will reconsider. While I am new to this forum and won't move in to TV for a few more weeks, I have enjoyed your posts and really appreciated your insight.

Ignore the folks who have nothing nice to say--they are in the minority and the vast majority of the people on this board appreciate your posts. There are always a few bad apples in any community--be it a neighborhood or an online community. Don't let the unkind words of a few prevent you from doing something that you enjoy and that most of us appreciate.

As a long time lurker, I have learned numerous things about the Villages. Thank you Russ and all the veteran posters here on this great site. You will be missed, Russ.
I might drop out of Political, myself. There are a few who get personal and call you mean names if you disagree with them.

Russ. Everyone knows that we G's are huge fans.

I am so sad to read this.

PLEASE do not leave.


Come to think of it...Maybe I'll be using Facebook for awhile.

Too bad Russ. You will be missed. You gave a lot of good information to this site.

Lurk for awhile and then you will see that your expertise is needed.

I hate to see this happen as Russ always gave good helpful answers.

Russ.... Sorry to see you go. I certainly understand and respect your decision to leave at this time. TOTV will not be the same without your common sense approach and valuable posts.

Best of luck and I hope to see you, once you are in TV full-time.

Best Regards..... Mike

Russ, Hate to see you leave. Best to you and someday hope to meet up with you. Best to you.
