i'm not sure what mental defect makes people feel the urge to brag publicly about losing their fandom. it's just weird. its almost like you get a buzz off of publicly declaring your malaise because you think you are going to really teach those idiots in the admin a lesson. it's especially weird because deep down, you all know you still care. a lot.
so quit being whiners and either (1) leave without the histrionics or (2) go down with the ship like a man (and, yeah, i do think it's a sinking ship).
****EDIT*****
i didn't read all of the OP. i have no problem with people readjusting their priorities for things that matter more.
