Its Time For Me To Say The Big Farewell :(

[Trojan1]

Well, sat on the train today while the fecking thing was broken down (stuck in a tunnel fer 3 hrs

), i began to think about whats what in my life.
You know i worked it out that in the period of the last year i have spent approx £2,000 on phone bills (home and mobile inc), £1,700 on computer equipment(all acessories / additions), and have spent somewhere around 2000+ hrs online. Now you gotta admit thats a fair whack.
Recently i seem to be spending all my free time just trying to keep up with all thats happening and what with having a firm heap of work booked between now a Febuary (all of which is going to require travelling away weeks at a time giving me about one weeks grace between work).
Oh feck this, i'll cut the crap - i'm pulling the plug on my net access completely. Its taking up way too much time and money, and i need to get down and concentrate on the future (careers and shite - Got a cpl of promising job offers from America to consider to

), and that i suppose, is the way it is.
Its gonna feel mighty strange but i think its for the best. I'll be logging in for the last time this sunday coming, after which i ask for everyone to delete me from their icq list and BW to delete my accounts.

So long guys - and frag happy.
/me goes off to cry.

Let ME be the first to say how much Trojan1 will be missed from the Barrysworld community

Tro has inspired some newbies in their early stages of Quake2 CTC, and help me along a bit in the field of CTF.

If it is possible to have an Best online friend ... then Trojan1 was mine

. We spent many, many hours online together planning things for EgGstreme's future - and just chatting as m8's. Recently, Tro has been offline for quite sometime, and although he doesnt know it, I sorely missed his company.
I have been asked by several clans to join since the break up of EgGstreme, but without friends like Trojan1, Uberladen, ZZleeZZ, Fra, Hipster, and the rest of the gang, it just isn't the same.

Trojan1 made EgGstreme a very special group to be in *sniff*, and I will never forget the good times (can quite easily forget the bad mind

), and the fun we had trying to turn our clan into something special.

Thanks for your friendship, company, and insight into others things in life *tears streaming*.

May I take this chance to wish you the very best of Luck M8 on all your forthcoming ventures

Your Online friend,

ShaggyDA

and just for the sake of it

err, I did have a nice long farewell thingy typed out, but it sounded really sarcastic, so I deleted it, so I think I'll just keep this short.

Bye

erm
no but honestly, you will be mi.. no,I'm gonna end it there, I said I'd keep it short.

 

[Uberladen]

hmmm, bad news

- time fer history lesson

When I first appeared as a newbie on BWCTC, I was forced to ask "wtf? help, what do i do???", Tro was the only reply i got & he kinda took me under his wing & taught me how to play (to the best of his abilities - he was limited as he had to teach ME!)
Since that night so long ago we have chatted and played together on a regular basis, even going through the formation & ultimate death of clan EgGstreme.
Ta fer taking the time & trouble to teach me m8

CTC won't be the same without ya

Have a good one & beware the phone - it could be me

[orrible-troll]

I'm very sad to see you going Tro, you're going to be missed by a lot of people. I've got a lot to thank you for, both in EgGstreme, then for getting me into NSK, and for being a good friend online.
I really hope to see you back on the net in the future...

Good luck with whatever you do

Good luck in your chosen pursuit (chickens?).

I hope it goes well, and you spend the money you are saving on worthwhile stuff (porn etc.) do come online sometimes, if only to kick everyone's arse at CTC...
TheMoose (sad to see ya go

)

1. You shall be missed!
2. Bloody good luck to you!

Bugger, hate it when we lose some of the old names from round here.

I doff my cap to you and you have my respect for being able to make such a bold decision.
Sounds like it might be the right decision too.

Good luck. You're welcome back anytime.

Ted

 

[Trojan1]

Well feck me. I never thought i'd see such a long list of replies to my message. But a big thankyou and regards for you all for replying. Makes the whole damn thing even harder

But i'm going ahead as planned. I'd just like to say the final goodbye now as tomorrow will be my last day (sunday). However, i'm gonna go out with a bang with some final games (yet again on sunday 13th).

2100-2300 Barrysworld CTC
2300-0100 Battle MOD (BW Bookable 3)

Everyones invited to join me for one last fight, if you want the pwd for the second server then icq me (13309456).

Thankyou everyone for everything, Barrysworld and the people i've met here became my online home and friends and given me many hours of enjoyment through both playing and chat over the past cpl of years, i'll miss it all deeply. Still, i can say im leaving with some good memories, the EgG's were great fun to be with and was more like a family than a fighting team (although we did work v.well together) - big regards go out to the main members, who at the end of the day were, and still are v.good friends:

ShaggyDA
Uberladen
Hipster
Monyet
ZZleeZZ
Fra
Orrible Troll
Mincer
Meik

A big respect also to [WC?] peeps, they're a great laugh and have a nice humerous web-site. And at the same time respect to the rest of the regular ctc players such as Hoggle and Amy who are great ppl.

But the biggest respect has gotta go to DBs, Ted, and the rest of the BW crew for all their hard work and support over the time. All i can really say now is keep up the good work chaps, your doing a brilliant job and everyone knows and respects it.

[ZZleeZZ]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

This seems to be becoming a trend, hope it stops soon. Cant stand losing good friends like this

Well if u gotta go then u gotta go, your life and your decision. Course, if it was up to me then I would be saying - "Maybe I'll just take a long break and see how it goes, maybe internet access will become free at last, maybe I'll have nothing to do with my time after a long hot summer"

Seriously m8, you WILL be sorely missed.

Just try and pop back now and then and say hello to us lot

BTW - on behalf of all the EgG's thanks for all the nice things you've said about us in this thread

(I'm sure they wont mind little old me saying this)


Good luck in all you do in the future.
