I Googled something about Bag of Bones and stumbled on this site.
Thought to myself, "Ok, lets sign up...just another Forum"

Little did i know to find this Tet.
People who became wonderful friends....family.

I have been here for only 3 years but these 3 years have been wonderful.

I`ll miss this board a lot, all the fun we had and the tears we have shared.

Thankee Mr.King for this Board.
Thankee to Moderator FlakeNoir Dana Jean Tery for beeing
always polite and helpful.
Moderator i know i have asked many questions when i started the PG
and i was a pita....so thanks for always beeing patient withme.
And also the other moderators....you guys rock.
Enjoy your retirement Marsha, you deserve it.


I'm proud and happy to know all of you.
Wishing everyone good health and all the best.
Much Love and green Lights and LLAP.
Not a PITA at all. You were trying to learn and I was happy to answer your questions knowing that you were starting a place for people to go both while the Board was off-duty and once it was shuttered.

Thanks to SK and all the mods for providing me with someplace to go. Thanks to all the members who have kept me endlessly entertained and informed. This was the first and last time I ever joined a site. All of those who contributed have provided me with lots of stories, information, and warmth. I was happy on this site. To all of you on here...thank you.

I guess that's it. All the best forever and may your future be paved with cloud fluff, mal

Here, there and everywhere.
You guys are making me cry. Please, please, though, don't make this about me. Dana Jean FlakeNoir and Tery deserve the kudos just as much. They have given just as much of themselves to make this place what it is. They've reined things in when necessary and taken the undeserved abuse that came with it. They've also given praise and solace and humor to show folks that compassionate side of our humanity that seems to be sorely missing these days. We are more than our ideologies if we could just remember that.

You all have become such a huge part of my life and it's not just a cliché to say, it won't be the same come July. I may be saving money on Ibuprofen for the headaches but there's been a good side, too. :) I wish I had had the opportunity to meet more of you in person and ka willing, that could still happen for at least some. There will be water if God wills it.

Love you guys!
I want to read more of this thread, but will do that later because I'm crying my eyes out.

I've already offered my maudlin send-offs a few times, so I'll spare you that. I will, however, make note of all the wonderful people I've met on this forum. I found this place at a critical time in my life and you each helped me in your own inimitable way, and made it that much more difficult to say goodbye. So, no 'goodbyes' -how about 'thanks'?

The first time I ever posted here (also my first post ever on any kind of board thingy) of course rather than read the instructions for newbies I decided I would start my own thread.

Whew that was long for a confession huh?

I wanted to let all who look after or contribute to the SKMB know how much this place has meant to me. By letting me "meet" new people while I was basically a shut in it provided an outlet in my boring routine. All you people mean a lot to me and I have never seen any of you in person. I want to thank Mr King as well. I will never meet him (he's a Yankee after all who is a Sox fan what a combo ) but he has provided me with hours of enjoyment since 1980. Also this place doesn't exist without him.

Thanks for basically saving me.

I deleted a bit of your post but - yup - that seems to be a recurring theme - this Board has helped so many people over the years and helps to fill a void or assist people with healing during a difficult time in our lives (It was the same for me)

Great thread, for my part I just want to say it's been a pleasure to talk to you all over the last few months, some of the interactions between Dio and Ms.M. have been hilarious and have had me in stitches. Thanks to all the Mods who have the gift of the patience of Job, thanks to Jordan for keeping all things technical running smoothly, a huge thanks to Marsha for all her kindness and courtesy and endless patience, and thanks to the man himself Stephen King without whom none of this would be here. I'll miss the place but I have had the great fortune of making some new friends here and that's worth it's weight in gold.
I highlighted that one sentence because you are right - they don't get enough credit - they put up with a lot! (Sorry if I made anyone's job more difficult in the past)

Always remember to be POOH

Yes Moderator - and don't forget to poo too! (It's important)

It has been a privilege and an honor chatting with you, reading your posts, and getting to know you over the years.
I think you summed it up for me right there, with that sentence :encouragement:
Please, please, though, don't make this about me. @Dana Jean @FlakeNoir and @Tery deserve the kudos just as much.
Thank you to all the mods - you've done a great job over the years and we appreciate it.
I`ll miss this board a lot, all the fun we had and the tears we have shared.
osnafrank - I'm glad you joined! Without you we would not have the Ka-Tet Playground :star:
I guess that's it. All the best forever and may your future be paved with cloud fluff, mal
Guess I never would have met you in person, eh? mal (Just had to throw that "eh" in there)

I found this place at a critical time in my life and you each helped me in your own inimitable way,
Again - another person who found this Board helpful - so many have said that and it is true - thanks everybody!
Thanks for the banter, Mal. :)
