Id Like To Say Goodbye To All The People Ive Met On AW Because My
Citizenship Is Expiring In 7 Days And I Will Not Be Renewing Due To AW's
Lack Of Service And What They Have Been Saying To The Public.

One question, why did you cross-post to ALL of the newsgroups? This has nothing at all to do with the beta, bots, the SDK or the
wishlist. The only two newsgroups it might make sense in is Community and Worldbuilders.

Secondly, what do you mean by lack of service? Have you payed for something and not recieved it? I'm not a lawyer, but I think that
could be considered slanderous if not true. Also, what have they been saying to the public? Why would these two things make you
leave AW unless they had affected you personally?

Note that the twit didn't actually CROSSPOST this but actually posted in each newsgroup. From a guy who capitalizes the first letter of each word, how much intelligence can you expect? Let the twit's citizenship expire, hopefully to never renew again. Good riddance to twitiot rubbish.

Theyve said NOTHING. Case in point

Actually, he said that they'd said something.

By your reasoning, Wing Cmdr, I should stop using Microsoft products because none of their execs have ever spoken to me.

look, I'll keep this short and to the point(no offense meant to anyone)

But insulting people will not help the community, it only causes bad feelings. I've been insulted before, and it is not fun and feels bad too, and insults can lower self esteem quickly, especially to sensitive people. It also weakens communities. AW needs more cooperation, then it will
strive and succeed more, because we as AW users would be working together and that will impress people a lot faster. This is my opinion, but its a valid point. The last thing AW or any community needs are bad emotions. I've met a lot of good people on AW, and I've helped bring other good
people into AW also :)

Well, I hope this helps a little at least. :)
from what I've seen, it looks like AW might be understaffed, and overworked, they most likely don't have much time for serious updates or news, they are doing there best, that I'm sure of.

I give AW staff/crew credit and thanks for all there hard work :)
and all others who have helped make AW a good place. The AW people also helped make AW a reality in the first place, and/or helped to keep it a reality. They changed ownership at least once, and the new owners are kind enough to keep AW going and to continue to update and improve AW. :)

Sincerely
Tim Gregory
(MacGregor) on AW :)

PS: Please don't tell me my punctuation is bad or whatever, I'm not the best typist, but I assure you my english skills are at college levels, I make typos all the time. I think faster then I can type, so I get errors coming out almost every word.
I do my best though :)

Microsoft isnt exactly a user level company. AWCI has one product, and one major cash source. US. Microsoft however, has a
massive product line encompassing everything from the Internet to operating systems to word processors. Even if we stopped
buying their stuff theyd have enough cash to continue operating for at least a year.
And stopping buying microsoft products sounds fun.

Um, the twit didn't have to post his goodbye message in EVERY damn newsgroup, nova. This one would've sufficed. I seriously doubt he had as many friends as you think he did. Take a basic psychology class and perhaps you'll understand why. It's called low self-esteem, and by posting in ALL the AW newsgroups (and I believe the City4All and Andras' newsgroups as well), he was attempting to make himself feel more important than he actually is. He's an immature little kid seeking attention. Why do you think he capitalizes the first letter of every word? To be different; to attract attention. He couldn't be more transparent than if he were completely invisible. :)
