Second Life has been a much needed escape for me these past few months. In April I had my left wrist shattered and tore two tendons in my shoulder, four surgeries and six months later I’m ready to find RL challenges. I have met many incredible people in SL that have been wonderful friends to me, regardless of cyber or flesh, I am truly grateful for them. Due to my compulsive nature, SL is a dangerous game for me. I spend all day and night logged in building my SL while my RL dwindles. Cutting back is not an option for me, I need to quit completely. I would like to thank Linden Labs for all their hard work and support in creating an online experience like no one has done before. My account is active until December 11th, I will be giving access to my account and all that I own to Pete Fats to do what he decides. If there is anything of mine you wish to have just contact Pete.
First and foremost, Stellar Sunshine, You are a beautiful person, I am honored to have met and been your friend. My first week in SL you went out of your way to show me around and make me feel welcome to a new and incredible world, for this I cannot express my thanks. I am leaving my entire bank to Stellar to do what ever she sees fit. Eins and Fey, you two have been truly great friends, I hope your wedding goes well, and good luck. I hope to hear of little SL babies running around “lol”. Shadow Weaver, what can I say, you’re a stand up guy, which is not only true to himself, but true to all that are around him. Frankie Beach, The past month our friendship seemed to grow apart for one reason or another, but it’s all BS. I’m glad I got to hang out with you and get to know you, stay gorgeous! Zebulon Starseeker, Build something and keep it for a change! (kidding) take care man. Pete Fats, my boy, my dog. Ill see you soon in RL. Pete was the one who got me in here in the first place, after about 3 months of trying to get me to set up a account, he finally gave me one of his Video cards so I didn’t have any excuses not to play. Thanks again Bro.
I could go on like this all day; however I have to get going. If I didn’t name someone please don’t take it personally.

Thanks for an experience ill never forget.

Your friend,
Skrull Money

Well, Skrull....

What can I say....? I'm *happy* that you have recuperated enough to "get back out there." It was a long slope you climbed and we're just proud as hell to have been there with you for part of the walk.

You're a heckuva guy...kind and generous and smart *and* sick. LOL

I'll miss you.

ooh ooh can I have a pipe organ?
I sooo want to add particles to the pipes as the music's going :)

on a less greedy note I'm sorry to see you go. you're posts and in-world stuff have always been enjoyable.

And I know what you mean... it's addictive:
"Hello, I'm Upshaw... and I'm an SLcrack addict." <chorus of thousands replys> "Hello, Upshaw!"

Glad you're better... sad yer goin.

L8r,

Whenever someone leaves SL, I am reminded of the words of one H. P. Lovecraft...

That is not dead which can forever lie,
And with strange aeons, even death may die.

Congratulations on having the gumption to take charge and walk away. It really takes something to do that. Perhaps we will see you again someday.

Sorry to see you go, Skrull. You're a good neighbor and a great builder.

I'm also sorry I didn't see this post before. The land that you owned next to my island has already been bought up by some group named -=X-X=-. I cannot Find this group and I really wanted by buy more land next to mine.<snif>

Well crud, I don't want to hear this, but I understand where you're comming from Skrull. You've been a great friend and a talented one at that. Going to miss your unique style and the island won't be the same without ya.
Best of luck to your endeavors.

Zeb.

Aaawww, Skrull I only got to talk with you a few times but those times were memorable. You're an upstanding guy and SL will be a little emptier without your presence. Take care of yourself and good luck in everything you do.

Trinity

P.S.

Thanks for letting me sit on your pipe organ. :D

I know I speak for Garth too when I express my sadness at your leaving. We will miss you.

And thank you again for letting us use your magnificent organ in the Cathedral Athos built for our wedding.

We wish you well in your new ventures.

Sorry to see you go, man! I never ran into you much online, but you were one of the first people I met, and (along with Steller, Zeb, Pete, etc) made a good impression and encouraged me to stick around.

Sweet Skrull
I am away for a few days and logged in from a remote location to see this very sad news...
This is truly a terrible loss for our community. I only hope that you will reconsider and figure a way to balance both your "lives" so that we may continue to enjoy your lovely self.
If not, my very best wishes to you... You will truly be missed by everyone who has come in contact with you in the SL world.
You are a true genuine soul-
With love, Baccara
