    I'm not particularly happy to do this, but it has become necessary. After 17 years I must finally hang up my cape and resign from UO.

    I've recently settled down with someone, and just accepted a new Fed job a few weeks ago so my gaming time has evaporated into nothing.

    I would like to give a HUGE thank you to @Chris for running this awesome server and providing us with a great place to relive UO. You've done an amazing job and I've had a blast here over the last few years, keep up the fantastic work.

    And also a special thank you to all those who have patronized the BBC in it's various locations over the years. I'd never tried my hand at vendors before I came to this server, and while tedious at times, it was a fun and interesting experience and gave me a lot of opportunity to interact with a ton of UOR'ers, new and old alike.

    I've done things on this server that I've never done in UO before and met some really great people. It's been a pleasure playing with all of you and I hope your paths in life turn out well!

    Stay tuned for some sales :p

    Hey man, congratulations on how things are going with real life! You made this shard a better place with your vendors, and they will be missed, but it is great that things are looking up for you outside of UO :)

    It's always sad to see good people go... but on the other hand it was fantastic to have you around.

    Good luck with your interesting times ahead :)

    Boothby, I bought MANY of your wares before my break, and I guess even more after it. You will be missed. Good luck in life!

    Does this mean you'll give me a sweet deal on those first anni blues? Thanks, you're the boothest.

    Cheers and enjoy life's grand adventure. It certainly can't be enjoyed to the fullest through a pixel interface.

    Hey neighbor, very sad to see you go but happy for you!

    Your client mods have been excellent and I really encourage everyone to check them out. I honestly don't know how I would play without the colored spell icons! Thanks for everything boothby and good luck. Hope to see you again.

    I didn't get an opportunity to know you, but I can appreciate what you are and represent for this shard. I was a customer of your vendors almost daily since starting on UOR and promptly installed all mods from your art page with great fanfare. Thank you so much for your contribution and fare thee well in the game of Life!
