So to be clear, it was my own personal life and responsibilities that led me to stop posting on here. It wasn't any thread or post (although there was a stretch when things had settled down a bit that I was on here but the posts were all paragraph-long back and forths between just two of you). I let Matty know in late 2015 that with everything going on I just couldn't really contribute to the Warpath anymore and offered to relinquish my moderator title. Matty was kind enough to leave me with a Moderator Emeritus title

As for the personal threats that one poster made against me. Yeah it sucked, but I stayed on long after that incident. I'm still around on the interwebs (in places I kind of need to be for work), still talking Skins and sharing info when I can. But unfortunately I just don't have the time I used to that would allow me to be a regular contributor here anymore.

Congratulations on your second child, and I hope your new job is going great! Sorry to hear about your mother.
Even a part time contributor would be great! Maybe like a Sunday evening Smootsmack question and answer / meet and greet thread. Keep you in one place so that you can maximize your time here.

Welcome back SS, even if it is short-lived. Hope your family/real life are doing good.

Given the power structure that exists at Redskins Park, I have to assume Jay and Scot are sold and Bruce/Dan aren't. Those 4 are basically the decision-making council up there.

Smoot, I hope you drop by more. I'm always on the lookout for your posts. It's not the same with out you here (I still love coming here of course).

Good to see you again on the Warpath. I know life outside the Warpath intrudes from time to time, but I hope you won't be such a stranger here in the future.

SmootSmack, I'm glad you are back. After going back through the old threads and reading some of your old posts and hearing from the other members here, it feels as if I have "known" you as long as these guys have, and I have only been a member here for a short while. So, glad that this thread was able to get ya to come out and let everybody know you're doing well. I am sorry to hear about your mother's passing, but happy to hear about your new addition to the family.

I personally would rather Tafkas make a come back. Smootsmack always rubbed me the wrong way.

Good seeing some old faces (usernames?) in this thread. I'm more of a lurker these days, but miss the old days of defending Vinny Cerrato (I'm an idiot), standing up for Taylor Jacobs (take my toe?), and of course lobbying to sign Albert Haynesworth. We all make mistakes, mine are just worse than everybody else's.

Looking forward to reengaging a bit, as I miss the elevated debate. Ah what I would give for another Gtripp - Schneed bloodbath.

Yup. If this is it for a while, take care SS. I wish you and yours many good fortune.

That's a bad track record. Welcome back anyways, I'm sure if you stick around long enough someone new will show up to entertain us. It never fails.
