GoodBye

[CopsRCool302]

As much as I hate this, I'm leaving LEF. I want to say thank you to alot of you guys for talking with me.

I Understand this site is for cops, I know the job gets pretty bad, and its good to vent things out here, but somethings are way to much for this civi.

My health has been a on going problem, I have short term memory problems pretty bad, I suffer from Fibromyalgia (if I spelled that right) and it's really picked up since the change in the weather.

I also was turned down because of my disabillity to help family's of fallen officers, it was a turn down, a sad one and it hurts alot.

I want to thank Reca for being a Buddy to me, he's a great man.

Growler is another one, she's a awsome lady, and many more.

I support law enforcment 150%.

to Brad, I really didn't get to know you well, but I really wanted to spread the word out to other Officers in Iowa about your site, I got no replys from you, so I guess that would be a no?

it would have been wonderful to at least get something in a PM, to at least let me know what was going on, it's ok.. I Know Reca gets his PM'S, reca where are ya? you asked Tony to clear his out so he would get yours..

Mike Pratt, father of fallen Officer "Tye Pratt" really don't want me to help, since I told him I have a problem with memory, and that CB2 helps remind me of things, I can understand where he comes from, but than again, wheres that leave me? I can't help my Illness, does this mean I can't help in some way or another?

I in no way shape or form want to take credit for nothing, I just wanted to let people know that the fallen officers have people like me to help keep their memorys alive.

this is not easy to do, I met alot of good people here. Brad, you done a great job! Reca is a really cool guy, I call a friend, and always a friend.

to all the LEO'S here, I say, keep yourselfs safe, and always remember, I support you guys/gals and yes even the K-9's...

Sorry to see you go. When it comes to Brad lately he has not been around much as he has been working extremely odd shifts and is dealing with the site basically on his own most of the time. I am sure he has gotten your PM's and just has not had the change to reply.

I would also like to say that it has been a pleasure to have you here. Don't leave stick around, you never know what opportunities will come around that you can get involved in. Just remember what doesn't kill us makes us all stronger.

[Virginian]

I'll echo what Chris said, you're a great and positive part of this site, Danny. Stick around!

[BEK]

+2 sorry to see you go. We would really want you to stick around. Hope you rethink your decision.

[BigDawg]

I haven't been here as long as others, but I really have enjoyed your posts. I would say stick around, like the others have said you never know what might come around.

Even though we didn't chat much I do consider you a friend. And let me say as a Law Enforcement Officer. Knowing there are people like you that support us helps a whole lot. We usually only hear the bad and negative from people. Actually hearing a heart felt thank-you lifts me up like nothing else can.

Agan please reconsider your decision and stay around, we all would love to have you.

[Andrewtx]

I'd hate to see you go, CRC302.

[dlefdal]

Good luck and know that there is always a place here for you if you decide to return.

Here.......... ..............don't leave empty handed

[gozling]

I hope you rethink things and stay!!!
I love talking to the civis here and it keeps me in line sometimes with different perspectives....
best to you on whatever your journey is
*hugs*

We'd like for you to stay...but that's up to you.

As far as what Chris said, yeah, I have been extremely busy lately. I've had two relatives die recently, I'm working 8 straight days, and am running LEF mostly alone as Will is having internet connectivity issues...plus a lot more. I haven't forgot about you. It's nice though for people to keep in mind I am a full-time LEO, and work an odd, and hectice schedule, then add my personal and social life, taking care of my dog, and hooking up with random chicks, and bam....little to no free time.

CRC - I don't think you should take it personal that Brad didn't personally say you could recommend this place to anyone. He probably gets more pm's then he can check every day, and running a MB is very time consuming. I'm sure he expects/trusts us to use our best judgement when inviting new visitors.

It sounds like you have more then one serious health issue to work through, and if taking a break from here helps you focus on your health, then you know what's best for you.

Good luck!

Exactly!!! Glad you understand PDawg. It is not out of the ordinary for me to have 6 or 7 PM's when I log on, waiting for me, and approximately 10-20 e-mails.

If anyone wants to use the LEF name to promote our site, that is fine.

[nitestokker]

You're my homie CRC and we've got to stick together! C'mon now, sounds like you're just having a bad week. Get your shit together and get back with us. Don't give up on your friends, we are a team and we need you. Come to Kimball and I'll buy you a steak! Peace!

[Emily]

Honestly, I think you should stick around. But if not, you know how to get ahold of me!

Wow, that's an insane amount of messages for one person to handle. Heavy is the head that wears the crown! Are you starting to regret this whole running your own forum thing, Terminator, and feeling tempted to stop verifying LEOs altogether and just sell the forum to a firefighter?

Hope you'll stay, CopsRCool. CiviliansRCool too.

[Growler]

Aww, don't go. Some times when things go south, you need other folks to occupy your mind and keep you occupied. Besides, who else am I going to share food with?

[jmur5074]

Last month I decided to take a hiatus from LEF, just to clear my head, get over some drama, and get off the computer for awhile.

I hope that you'll find myself in the same spot I was in. Even though I took my "hiatus" I still checked the site almost daily....LEF is like a drug!!

I enjoy reading your ideas and opinions, and hope you reconsider. If anything, take a "hiatus" from LEF, but don't leave us for good.

Whatever you decide to do, good luck, and keep your head high!

[katiemh]

Whatever you decide to do, good luck, and keep your head high!

Ditto to what everyone has said. Except, don't "keep your head high." Keep your chin up. Drugs are bad. Jmur's such a crackhead.

That's probably what I meant.

dammit. I feel like an idiot now.

[TXCharlie]

Drugs are bad.

Depends on which kinda drugs we're talking about. I've had some pretty good I.V. drugs during minor surgery. Wish I knew what they were
