well guys it,s time for me to call it a day here, i have been thinking a lot lately about getting rid of my collection and their finally listed in the sale section.
i am doing this out of loss of interest and nothing more, apart from Andy v nagging me 24/7 only jokin mate, i have met some decent guys whilst i have been here and i have had a blast too i have just lost all interest and the fact that this site has hit rock bottom has,nt helped my decision.
i will be hanging round for the 7 day listing of my boxes and if they don,t go to a member here i will list on ebay.
i probably won,t post anything else for the remainder of my 7 day duration here so thanks to all you guys who have helped me out since my arrival, thanks to DRIPTIP, HIFITOM, BOOMER, and ANDY V, for the trades and stuff alike.
also thanks to all who have spent time chatting to me and for making me laugh cheers guys and good luck to you all

ok lav, what can i say for you to stay? you own this place, is your home, you rule here!
anyquestions?

hey good to hear from you DT thanks for the comments there is a few reasons that i don,t really want to talk about for my departure like i explained in a pm to you, if i can somehow sort the main reason out i may hang around if not to post atleast to browse

It's a sad day Lav, i've enjoyed our chats, if sometimes a little edgy, but it's been good fun.

At least you were one of the few who bothered to answer my posts.

I wish you well with the rest of your life you bald coot

I have to agree Lav,
From what I've seen you single handedly kept this place moving with your threads and responses.

Peace.

A pretty sad day lav as with out you stg will seem pretty dead as your about the only guy who posts around here...

Im just glad I had the pleasure of meeting you guys and I have that beuty m80 to remind me of my first official meet...

If you are going lav let me take this moment to wish you all the best and god speed but if you are like me you'll find I have gone through the notion of nearly quitting many times hope you change your mind and decide to stick around lad....

hey guys im welling up nah seriously thanks for the kind words, it,s making me want to stick around

nice 1 reno

I don't get this whole phenomenon of quitting. What I mean is, some folks go through phases of posting more, then less, then more again (or not). I sincerely hope that there aren't financial issues involved for you, but even if you had to get rid of everything save your most favorite box, aren't you still a fan of boomboxes?

I hope you don't go, but if you do, I understand. Just think about why you feel the need to leave permanently before doing it. I think that at the end of the day, you're either into it or not, regardless of how much or how little you post. Even if the passion isn't as strong as it once was, most folks I know still have the bug for the hobby that I keep in touch with here.

Here's to hoping you still feel enough of a connection to boomboxes to continue visiting from time to time, even if your priorities or situation has to change.

well after some careful consideration, i have decided that i am going to stay on here i do love boxes and i do love this place, i just wish it would pick up a little.
maybe i was a bit hasty jumping in saying im quitting, just of late i don,t seem to know what i want.
anyhow after all the kind positive responses iv,e had of members through pm,s and here on the forums, i would be silly to leave here because i have just realised what st2g means to me now so sorry for the change of heart guys

bye bye mate.....welcome home mate lol

i was,nt gone long was i

good to see that your staying mate, as others have said it wouldn't be the same here without you. I dont post here much but i enjoy checking in every other day & readding your threads & post's.

hey thanks for the post AFECTS i will still be posting as much as i can so stay tuned

Oh Crap!! he's staying.

No seriously, good to hear it.
Have you noticed, when you said you were quiting, everybody came out of the woodwork to say goodbye, so they are out there watching but just not posting unless there is an interesting topic, so chin up lad, as Tony Blair said in 1997, "things can only get better", and he wasn't wrong was he

well i gotta say ADE, im pretty shocked at the great response iv,e had, i agree with you the people are out there even if not posting much.
and on another note, as DAVEBUSH mentioned the winter nights is when i will need this place most so i am looking forward to it because it will be my first winter on here, and i believe it will pick up then
and as you stated about tony blair witch project, when he said things can only get better he obviously did,nt mean for us lot did he

welcome back lav

agreed with all other responses - and glad you found your way back

Glad you're staying, I haven't posted for a while, got quite a few new boxes so should do some, and reply to others and keep this great site going.

LOL! I agree with PF. Why go through the trouble of announcing quitting? I guess you chaps dig the drama!
Personally If I were to leave I just would just stop posting and be done with it. No explanations needed.

i just thought i would get this site moving again with this topic and i think it worked

See, told you so.

hey by the way ADE, did you take the trip to BOOMERS house on sunday??

Not to sh!t on anybody else's contributions to stereo2go, but without Lav Loo, this place is as good as dead. That said, other cats need to step their game up.

hey MONO i love your words clean cut, straight to the point, no messin
you should post more often here, i like the way you cut to the chase

Sorry, but other than you, Andy V, and a few stereo2go veterans, there aren't any cool people here.

Yes Lav, nice trip, only 50 miles, and what a great guy, couldn't do enough to help me, although i don't think i made the same impression on Reno.

I took a terminally ill Panasonic RX-DT707 with a sick cd unit that i was conned on ebay with. I also took a JVC M80 to swap with Reno's 707 with a partially working cd unit.

We tried to get one working fully from the two, but no luck, we stripped the two down on his bed, (and don't go reading anything into that) When i got home i did manage to get a fully working unit out of the two, but that required changing pcb's over and soldering.

It seems the man is dedicated to boomboxes, it must be a real pain living so far from everyone else, i will visit him again, he is one of the best.

Is great to have u here man, And glad u are keeping and staying here.

first of all thanks for the kind words guys
and ADE, i wasn,t reading anything into the bed thing honest no seriously im glad you enjoyed your trip to RENO,S as i did if i ever get the chance again i will make a return trip, he is a top guy without a doubt
