View Full Version : Farewell Technodrome.

This is something I have tought about a while now, and today I have had enough. When I'm threatened to lose my Modreator status and and even get a warning for Old cartoon bashing, It' clear that this isn't the place for me. Especially since I don't know what is the definition of bashing anymore.
This has become a Forum where I have to watch for every word I write, not to say anything negative about the old cartoon. I've done my best, but that isn't cearly enough. This is Krang's forum, and if he wants that old cartoon can only be praised, that's his choice alone. I have watched every epiosde, but since my opinions about it are negative they have no place on this board. And right now I belive neither do I.
This is farewell from me to the people at Technodrome forums. I have had lots of good time here, and I thank you all for it. I keep checking this thread in case someone has something to say atleast for today, after that I can be contacted through AIM by screen name karp0 007.

Karpo, this is just the internet, you shouldn't take it too serious. STAY!

No GK, this has nothing to do with you, I posted this before I replied to that thread.
I have been thinking about this pretty much every time I get into troble with Krang for old cartoon bashing. Like I aid I've done my best, next thing would be stop replying compleltely, and I think it's better If I just leave this board.
I will miss the good times and people here.

Well Karpo, we've had our differences in the past but I'm glad they are behind us... I'll miss you around here, but do what you feel you need to do. if you have to leave, I'm sorry to see you go.... :cry:
Edit: And thanks for all the IRC help you gave me earlier this year, when I was an IRC Download n00b... I appreciate it

Hey I don't really know you but in your posts you're insightful and have always offered a balanced view and have a lot of useful information.
I've never seen you annoy anyone unless it's because they get angered by their own incompetence and you appear condescending, which is very rare indeed.
You should stay because it's obvious that there's no need to go, people like you here and it is just the internet after all. There's not one person on this board I wish would leave since you're all usually so friendly, helpful and polite

I don't want to see you leave, Karpo, I'm just frustrated by people attacking the only TMNT universe that I even remotely care about. I guess I was a little too harsh since I was in a bad mood after cleaning up after a spammer. I explained in the other thread why I had a problem with your post, so I hope you'll reconsider your decision. I don't see why you can't continue posting about the new cartoon and the Mirage comics, and here in GD of course.

I think everyone wants Karpo to stay. He's a sharp guy, he can hold a mature debate... an asset, indeed.
I would hate a Mod/Admin misunderstanding to rob us of one of the more respected people here. Sometimes people misunderstand each other. Happens.

I agree totally. Karpo is part of the glue that holds this forum together.

You can't leave Karpo. You're one of the big time names around here! If anyone has a question in the comic section you're usually on top of it in no time. You're also a plain cool guy. I'd be pretty sad if you left... :(

Damn you people... Now you've made me lose face. I'm really suprised how many of you don't want me to leave. The reason I considered leaving was the Fact I respect Krang for keeping this place up, and tought he'd rather have me gone than always going back to put down the old cartoon in one way or another.
But since Krang himself does not want me to leave, I will try harder once again. So the Farewells are cancelled.

Even though we haven't always seen eye to eye as it relates to the old cartoon and the comic book, I'm glad you have decided to remain here at the forums.
With you gone, there'd be no one left for me to pick on. :wink:
But seriously, I'm happy to see that you're not abandoning ship. What people are saying around here is true; you are a valuable member of this forum.

I'm glad to see you've reconsidered and decided to stick around.

I got an email about this and didn't believe this. So i had to return to say this
"While we don't always agree on all things TMNT we are like two diffrent coins one Old School Cartoon & You Mirage and its good to have diffrences even if you have to disagree with someone every once in awhile. But like I said in my farewell post your a good guy and I still believe this. and Don't don't leave a board because your of your diffrences as much as I feel weird saying this not liking the old cartoon is ok i just never liked the constant bashing. But i've always enjoyed you and the like the others have said I think you should stay."
This Gecko Has Said His Peace.
P.S. I Notiiced my Image is gone looks like I'm really a ghost around here.
I'm also glad you decided to stick around, Karpo. I understand how hard it's gonna be to hold your tongue about some things. I mean, if I said even half the things I thought about topics and arguements, I'd have been banned three times over. :lol:

You are entitled to your opinion, I don't see whats wrong with stating it, thats what forums are for. Just as long as you're not making fun of other people in the forum, then and only then have you crossed the line. Opinions about the TMNT should be welcomed here positive or negative everyone is entitled to their opinion. There is no reason to take offense to anyones negative comments about the TMNT, thats the beauty of opinions, you don't have to read them and you don't have to agree with them. Just a thought.

Karpo, it is tough being a moderator. I am one too.....in the chatroom that i monitor, there is more rules there than in here. I thought about quitting myself a few months ago because I grew tired of the insanity. But I stuck with it. I am glad that you decided to stay. you are always witty about the comics.

I guess despite what I said, I was making rushed judgements while being angry. And when so many people, even those with who I have even argued with want me to stay, I'm touched, and don't really have a choice.
And here I tought I would get away with few "I miss you too"s...

Yay!
Good choice! Only because we do need to have a knowledgable Mirage fan around to help out those with comic book questions. I also understand that it's tough about being careful about what you say here though. I used to despise the old cartoon a lot a couple years ago, but I have learned to be more nuetral about it. Eat a bit of the tolerance cake. Same goes for having to keep my yap shut about religion, or contributing to sexually graphic topics. I guess I have learned to leave my provacative personal opinions to myself, and just play referee to make sure others don't start getting snitty. Sucks being a mod in that retrospect, since one can't truly be themselves.. but instead a role model. But an agreement was an agreement! *salutes*

Indeed! I'm glad you're not going to leave, Karpo. Misunderstandings happen. Don't let it get to you. Krang is just as human as the rest of us, and I understand his frustrations. Let bygones be bygones (am I even spelling that right?). Anywho, carry on. :)

so yeah, uh...if you ever DARE to think about leaving this forum again, I'll....I'll....well, I dunno what, but it'd be really bad! :evilgrin:
(knowing me i'd probly cry... :cry: )

((Hi-5s Karpo)) Good choice, good choice. As has been said, we need a knowledgeable Mirage fan around here. And b'sides, who would I argue about Lawson with? :P

11-13-2003, 05:50 PM
Well since it seems no one, even Krang doesn't want to see me leave, the idea kind of lost it's point. Well I'm glad thinks worked out.

Well, glad to see that you're staying. You've been, and still are, a great help around.
But, I guess I should bite my tounge, because I also have some negative opinions on the old cartoon. :)

I agree with everyone here, your knowledge about the comics as well as the old show (I sure haven't seen every episode! :embarass: ) are irreplaceable.
Plus we need people to keep on the legacy of fil!!!
