This is an anonymous letter, sent through a proxy under a fake account. I'm posting on behalf of my main, the name of which some of you will guess and many of you would recognize. I've participated in many threads over the years, and been an avid TIF reader since 2005. I've posted thousands of responses in Help and Advice, participated in many enjoyable arguments in the Rants forum, and enjoy reading Off Topic's opinion on serious issues affecting humanity. However, I've decided to leave, probably for good. From now on, I'm just answering PMs from good friends. Love the forum, tired of the mods. There were a few people in rants that I didn't always get along with, but overall it was a very good community - it was the overeager moderators who set me off. Posts removed without explanation, signature bans inexplicably given and retracted, conflicting advice from moderators, PMs that took weeks for a response, inconstancy with rules, many old friends being banned, threads locked with no explination etc. etc. I'm quite aware that this thread will quickly and ironically be locked, probably with the generic "Please post this in the Leaving sticky" copied and pasted from all the other posts. Sorry TIF, but you've lost another old and experienced member. I'm not sure if I'll head for RSC or simply continue playing RS, but if you'd like to add me or have a chat, drop me a PM on TIF if your smart enough to figure out who this is. I'm aware that this will be promptly locked, so I'm also posting it in the Leaving TIF thread for greater visibility. Note that I will NOT respond to PMs to this account, so send it to my "main". Goodbye forever, TIF. It was a good few years.
