This is goodbye...

[eTiMaGo]

Hey everyone,

I'm afraid I have some bad news to share with you, but because of problems at work, I'm going to need to be spending a LOT more time working, and as a result I am just not going to be able to continue as a moderator here on YarisWorld, or to arrange group buys and sticker shipments in the future. It really pains me to say this, but after I get this last shipment organized, you will probably see very little of me for the next few months.

So, it is with a heavy heart that I'd like to thank you all for all the good times I've had here, the invaluable friendships, even the entertainment of the countless flamefests :wink: I'm really gonna miss you all...

Keep on Yaris'ing :burnrubber:

Thomas

[Doc Zaius]

Dude!! NOO!!!! :cry:

We'll all miss you. You've been a huge supporter of the site, as well as one of the most level-headed members here.

Thanks for everything! :smile:

[staticorex]

:o !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quit your job. They'll understand!!

[ECHOKnight2000]

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Oh man. You have one of the coolest cars on here! What a bummer!:thumbdown:

When you can, please keep us posted.:thumbsup:

[tiksman]

You are not going to be gone for good are you??? Just little time to post, Right???

[jamal1984]

good bye etimago, hope you have fun.

[ChinoCharles]

Very sad to lose my "friend in Thailand."

Here's to our hardest working moderator and the sexiest privately owned Yaris in the world! Three cheers! HIP HIP...

:laugh:

no more needs to be said

[brickhardmeat]

:frown:

man this is sad, there goes the neighborhood:cry:

[yrsdrgn]

You said we won't be seeing much of you for a few months. Hopefully we can still see you posting from time to time on the forums. I agree with everyone else that you've been a great support to the forum and you will be missed. Thanks for all the support man.

Props to you :thumbup:

[BailOut]

I'm sorry to hear that, Thomas. You have been a wonderful asset to this site, the real backbone of it.

I'm curious, though... as far as I know you're the only active moderator. Once you step down, who will take your place? Or will we be left with no moderator?

[eTiMaGo]

Thanks for all the warm comments, guys, I'll probably still lurk and post a bit, mostly on weekends :smile:

I've contacted YarisBueller about appointing a new moderator or two, I'm not sure when this will happen, but you all will be in good hands no matter what :biggrin:

[Shroomster]

argh damnit......I soo need to get those smoked modelista taillights from you but no one has gotten theirs form the first GB yet....

man you are awesome nonetheless for all you've done for this community...not going away just playing a smaller role and no matter the size everyone's role is still important....

[tk-421]

All hail the french dude! :bow:


Seriously though... You've been a great asset to this site, and you will be sorely missed.

I hope to see you around, and wish you the best in your current and future projects!

Much :respekt:

[redyaris]

Best to you Etimago. Your restraint has been admirable and your comments very amusing!

Nice to know we all have a friend on the other side of the world.

I'm glad I got my yarisworld sticker now!!!

[kurokoma-kun]

:frown: :frown: :frown: Noooo!!! (pouty face) Accursed work and its constant demands for attention!

You can be very proud of your efforts as moderator here! And you'll still be around a little bit, right? So please don't say goodbye, say au revoir...

[joey1320]

Steverino = moderator that would be a dark day in YW history

[Vanderkitten]

Thomas! I am not sure what you do for "WORK" over there, but your car and resources have been a godsend for the Yaris community... helping to fight the good fight ad legitimizing our addiction to this bitchin' little car.

[slvryaris]

Thanks for all the insight and help you have gave us so far Thomas with this car. Your our man from another land and our brother from another mother :bow:

[sboy]

[Nutzoids]

Well what to say…

Thank you for all your hard work here at Yaris World, I know you won’t be gone, but just scaling back a bit, and that’s cool, I don’t want to hear about you loosing your job!

I know your not going to just Disappear, but your presence will be missed…

God Speed Thomas, God Speed!
