I have something to tell you, and I know it won't be easy.

I've been thinking these past few days it might be time to leave.

I have been a part of CAA since before the current incarnation even existed-- back when CAA was just a list of names on a small website. But...now I'm older, and I've changed. I still love anime and Japanese things, but the climate on these forums is different than it was before. Also, many of my old CAA friends have moved on or are in the process of moving on.

It's definitely been an...interesting ride, with plenty of good times and plenty of bad times. I've spent a lot of time and energy here. I've met some wonderful people here, some of which have helped me through some pretty tough times.

But this is where it ends for me.

I really do wish you all the best, and I hope CAA continues to have a positive impact on lives just as it did on mine.

Sayounara, God bless, and Sieg Zeon. Er, I mean, good night.

Without you, Nette, CAA will lose much of its brightness. I feel very honored that I got to know you here.
Plus, were it not for you, my life would still be Magiranger-less and giant robot-less. You brought clever wit and insight to many of the discussions here.

Good night and godspeed to a beautiful, bright future; wherever the road takes you.

Goodbye, ShiroiHikari. Without your sarcasm the forum will have less of a defense against stupid. God bless.

I'm really going to miss seing you around CAA, but I understand that you feel it's your time to leave. I never talked to you much on a personal level, but I still thought you were pretty cool. :)

Bye, Nette! :) It has always been great talking to you in the Chat and hearing your comments. But I can understand your decision.

We'll be keeping up somewhat on Twitter, though. Sort of.

Annette,

Never talked with you nearly enough (you always struck me as being very real and very honest no matter what was going on in life). I pray that our paths cross face to face sometime this side of heaven (I'll look you and Daymon up if I'm ever in town). Farewells to the saints are never "goodbye."

So, "til next time".

May the Lord richly bless you and draw near to you as you continue to draw near to Him. Love you sis.

I'm sad to see you go. We'll miss you!
And so, in the words from the Sound of Music:

"So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu!"
