STOP MAKING “SORRY IM LEAVING SIMPLEPLANES FOR A WHILE”.

6,257 FlexNoTape  5.8 years ago

Most of the time we don’t know who you are.

.

Why do we need to know that you are going to just go buy some chips and be back

.

Why do we need to know your on holidays

.

Why do we need to know you’re going to watch the rugby.

.

It has been noticed most of them come mostly from users with 2000 or less points.

.
Thanks, bye

P.s. sorry if there is any spelling mistakes. My screen is iPad screen is smashed and the keyboard is going crazy at the moment.

    Yeah lol it was wierd at first, like “Hey. That guy was lying. I’m not dead”. I thought no one was going to believe me. But everyone seemed to accept that I was not lying and the other kid was, and I haven’t seen a forum post about it since. I do get the occasional “hey, aren’t you dead?” But then I just link them to my first forum post. @iLikeipads

    I announce it so hopefully I get less notifications. That idea is counterintuitive.

    Instead of making a post/rant about it, Just ignore the “im leaving” posts and move on

    Ugh these posts are about as annoying as what you are complaining about. There already are plenty of posts about this and still nothing has changed. People still post leaving announcements no matter what you say. The only thing you can do about it is ignore them and stop making pointless posts like this.

    I really should start logging this, like "pointless posts per week". You just think, "I'm sorry, but I really don't care about your vacation, or school break, or whatever." The only time i would announce stuff like that from my personal life, if say, you went to an airshow and got some cool pictures, or at the other end of the spectrum, you joined the militatry and are about to be deployed.

    I think the point at which people notice builders, spans from Gold to platinum, and the more you are known around the site, the bigger your leaving hype is. Say, if you were level 5000 and you had only been a user for 2 months, your hype would be quite big because you have acquired a lot of points in a short amount of time. If you have 5000 points and have been around for 2-3 years, you may not get a farewell (unless you are quite frequent on the site).
    Perhaps the call can only be made if you know the person leaving is popular among other users.

    But of course, if someone like Gestour left again, the world would implode into chaos,

    @Mattangi2 if you are a well known user then yeah, its appropriate. When its the random people I don’t know and never have seen their username before, it is absolutely wrong.

    Agreed. Ruins the forums. Idc if you are leaving some person I don’t know who is still in the white tag. You clogged up my forums and I want the good posts cause I actually want to read the stuff people here who want to share something or need help. Seriously, just put it in your bio. People will find out you left eventually if you need to show some group of people who don’t care just to get attention. I’m on a little vacation thingy. Have I made a post? No.
