Title: Regretfully the time has come...
Post by: BFM_Warlord on November 05, 2007, 08:24:11 PM
I am sad to say ,I am retiring from BFM.BFM has meant a great deal to me over the years.It has certainly been a family to me.Every one of you mean something to me.This has been one of the hardest things I haver ever had to do.I just have to make this choice for my family and my businesses.My time with my family and my businesses is needed and it has not left me with the time to enjoy BFM as much as I would like.I have to walk away for now.I truly hope you all understand.I don't ever want to let any of you down.I will still be around just not as much.I will leave with a lot of good memories and good times.I don't want to single out anyone in my goodbye because their is just so many of you that have a special place in my heart.You all know who you are.Maybe someday I will re-join you all.I will always want to that is for sure.I just know I am making the right choice for my family .It is something I have to do.You all most certainly ROCK!

I have a lot of respect for you Warlord. You're a great guy, and you're making a hard choice. Family should always come first versus Halo.

I would say please don't be a stranger, but I'm pretty sure you'll still be around every now and then. Good luck in everything you do!

Hi Mr.Warlord...

Well me and you had some realllllly good chats, Got to know you pretty well and I'm jealous that someone can always be in such a good mood and not show any ill will towards anyone, thats rare to find in someone and a rare and amazing quality in a person, i envy you for that.

I hope everything works out, I also can't believe the day has come for you, its been such a long time.
Anyway it was a honour to work with you that one season, i truly wish you the best. Hmmmpf, Gl warlord Hope things work out for you, you were one of the core people i enjoyed at BFM, it was always fun chatting with you Mr. Rock

I am sorry to see you go Warlord. You were a true inspiration for all members of our clan and fufilled a role that was invaluable to the clan. You made the correct choice, life and family always takes precedence over halo. I hope that you still come online from time to time, and race with us. You will be missed.

Warlord my friend, you are a class act and have always had mine and the entire clans respect. I feel fortunate to have gotten to know you in BFM. The friends that we have made from around the world is the mark that BFM will leave on all of us. You have definately left your mark on everyone here and shall be rememberd fondly for your contribtions to the clan. I can well appreciate your family being the ultimate commitment and applaud you for making that decision. I can first hand acknowledge how hard it is to leave this awsome groupe of people and know what a tough decision it was for you to make. But you always knew the right thing to do and I am sure this time is no different. I wish you well and will still look forward to our times on the track.

Warlord you were the first or second BFM that I ever raced with, I remember trying to race with BFM's and be noticed when one game I drove for you and Shawty and you both rocked!  Well I can understand you needing to go and I'm glad that you will spend the time you need but of course will miss you in BFM.  I hope to see you around and I know I will.  Stay in touch, you know where to find me.  Thanks for all the great times, I've really enjoyed hanging out with you and thank you very much for all the support you have given me over the past two years!

Thanks again for all the kind words.I thought I would update my situation as of late,Well for starters the day after I had to leave BFM my store manager got himself in serious trouble and will probally end up in Prison for his stupid choices.A few days later one of my other Employees I caught them stealing money.So I have been working 7 days a week.Now my Wife and Kids have been working with me.A real family business lol.I am training new people,you usually have to go through about 5 people to get one good person.Sometimes you get lucky.Hopefully I will have everything back to semi-normal in the future.I hope all is well as always in the BFM world. I miss you all very much.I am just going through a tough time but its not the first time and I will over come this bump in life's road.Take care my friends I will be around when I can.
