Circle of life ... time to close this one.

Hello buddies,
I´ve had a very good time with you guys. Much has happened in this year, many a friend have I got to know in this site, and many will still be. I´m writing this few words, since I´ve come to realize I no longer pursue an active 3d career. Quite sincerely, I haven´t used Maya in many a months. I believe I have a far better chance in the graphic design industry, and as such I´m going to try to focus all my efforts into regaining and honing my creative eye. Many thanks to many people, of whom I particularly remember; (In no particular order by the way)
And particularly to Kevin ... Many a times we had to chat over women, beer, trips, beer, trips, bitches, and some stories you wouldn´t even imagine. Lol. Guy´s one of the best dudes I´ve ever known in me life, and trully hope I get to meet up in some point of the future. Take care of the kiddo mate. Many many a thanks to the people which make this a great thriving place to be. Please do enjoy the place. Don´t spoil it, be nice to new guys, and if you´re gonna fight, at least make sure you use the F word a lot. :p I´m stepping down as moderator, since quite sincerely I feel we need some fresh talent around this place. Will still post ocasionally, as SimplyCrack is not easy to overcome. :) Have fun mates. Live a great life in the process. |
? WTF?! emmm no! arghh Kevin stop him he's talkin' crazy! :o
Seriously though, good luck Adl it's a shame your leaving (first M now you.....) I hope you still hang around a bit, your posts have certainly made the board more "interesting" at times ;) suerte alan |
huh?? wtf is this about dude??
I have to keep your mod place open just so we can talk shit in the mod area..... Mate I havnt touched maya for like 4 months but Im still about so your not going anywhere!! Now get your dick out of your mouth and behave yourself :D Get on msn: kevin@simplymaya.com or ICQ: 75875073 |
oi adl, I love this quote :
"chat over women, beer, trips, beer" LOL we did speak about beer a lot didnt we mate, but then again I did go through a period of a perminant hangover :D |
Yeah, Adl. You can't go!
Everyone has their ups and downs. Hell, I was about to call it quits couple of months ago. But here I am, stronger than ever ;) "If it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger." Take your time off and unplug. I'm sure you'll be back :) |
NOOOOOO! Shame to hear that you're leaving Maya behind. I haven't touched it for several months either. I haven't really had much time for it, around moving interstate and at the moment highschool is a little bit of a strain.
One thing you taught me is the value of placing advertisements for threads in your signature. It was that that pulled me into the first ever SM tournament that M ran (hmmm, as I recall you forfeited to George). But anyway, good luck with your move back to graphic design. You do have a pretty sharp creative eye and I hope all goes well in the future for you. |
ooh adls man cheers for the good words and good luck with that degree and the rest of your life :D
-- ps check in occaisionally i still need some insults and photos to play with :D |
it is indeed a sad day in the life of SM!
I know Mr adl has said a thing or 2 that may have caused unrest but..... He has a big heart and has been part of this place for so long. I personally got on with him like a best mate, we shared the same sense of humor and the things I found funny - so did he and vice versa! I could read him like a book and he could me...so this is a big wrench in my heart :( I had a good chat with Adl today, we bull shitted some and chatted about some issues, laughed and said our farewares regarding the sm site - I had a lump in my throat and felt very sad at losing such a cool guy. We have both promised to keep in touch and we WILL meet up some time as we have both planned.... we will also chat as much as time permits on msn chat. But Sm will never be the same again as he was the guy whos posts I always read and looked for... Now I dont have time to use maya and manly use the board as a "chat area" he kept it alive and fun! Sure at times he was a miserable old sod and went over the top, but I to have done this on many occassions - its part of life! You get involved in chat and emotions arise, so some things are said out of turn but I can assure you all that this guy is a big teddy bear with the heart the size of a someone with Elephantitis. I do hope he calls in to visit and I will keep him open as a moderator so he can access the mods area as he is always welcome. So brother.... good luck in your graphics and I understand your reasons in your decision. Take care Kevin |
Now im crying dammit!!!! Dude you cant go......
Well if you must plz keep in touch and follow your own heart and path mate.. Thanks for the friendship=) Kurt |
hey man you can stop using maya theres nothing wrong with that, but dont forget us, keep posting on simplycrack, even if youre no longer a mod, just for fun... its good to have you arround... in fact i made myself a member ´cause of your therapeutic thread... it was so fun i tought to myself it would make dealing with maya to make it do what you want bearable ;)
|
Stop by lots Adl and then we won't know you've gone!
Have success in the future and come and tell us about it anyway. Sad to see you go - you really bring a unique feel to the place. |
WTF????
Dude! <starts cryin like Kurt> You rock the house man! I hope you stay in touch, as Michelle needs to see your hot bod once in a while! hehe... .."back woman! back!..." ..Hay Adl, this is Michelle. I gave Izzy the beat-down so feel free to come over anytime sexy!" ...ok, I'll untie him now.... DAMMIT WOMAN!! hehe... Dude, you GOTTA stick around at least a few hours a week m8!! Well, you know my home email buddy, so use it ANYTIME:) Ps, lemme know if you ever need a reference! Thanks for being there for me too m8. Luv ya bud. Peace. |
Nooooo dont go! Just unplug and commie back!...Well if you dont, we all understand. Good luck on your graphic design industry..though you CAN use Maya with that industry at the same time :) You never know, youre animating a simple box and then all the sudden you see a pose of it and hmMM, that looks like a cool design to do on paper :) But good luck man. Hope you come back!
|
Dam i been so buys with the new SLW i missed this post :(
Mate you'll be back :D If you get together with Kevin I'll probably tag along so make sure un bring Lots O beer, maybe somewhere in Europe when we've all got a few quid :) Take care mate. Have fun. David :) |
Thanks guys for the warm words.
I intent to check-in every once in a while though. Lol Rage! :D Say hi to Michelle for me. Hehehe Dave, Kev told me you were really busy. Don´t worry dude, .. beer´s the keyword on that trip. :D |
Wow! What can I say? Adl and I became good friends before I was a mod and has been my partner in crime ever since. We've had a lot of fun over the past year wreaking havoc on IRC and the forum, talking scuba, graphic design, and some heart-to-heart stuff. You could always count on him. I'm not really surprised at him wanting to concentrate on graphic design...it happens. (How many times Have I quit maya for months to study actionscript or design? ).
Adl, bud, "Via con dios, mi amiga *smirk*" Come back and visit once in awhile. And always remember... Senior tortuga est loco....senior tortuga est loco. :) |
Damn, I think i need a drink.

hiiimmm como no se como se traduce empaste: cuidado con los empastes si bajas a mas de 20 mts, ve a que te los revisen antes...no es divertido cuando oyes creck en tu boca ahi abajo... |
Wha?!?!?
dont go.... please stay?!?! oh, well... Good luck! |
Sad to see you go. :\
The flaming is strong in this one. |
ADL, after thinking about this.. i've decided that you cant leave... so, unpack your things and get back to your post..
---did that work?---- |
Can't say I knew you, but you were one of the posters here I've read most posts from, even before I started posting.
This place won't be the same without you. :) |
I don't get here near as much as I should anymore...but I still check in though ..if not just in a lurkin mode (as you've caught me b4 and messaged me ;))....so make sure you do the same..don't be a stranger. :)
Take care adl! You'll be missed! Best wishes.... Blondie |

Man, you guys got one over me, as I am DEATHLY afraid of water I cannot see through, OR water so clear, I can see the jaws of death about to chomp on me like some shark snack:) hehe..
yeah, I'm a wus when it comes to seawater... |
Lol, sea water rules.
At least you get that spine tingling feeling that one of those things is gonna come from below and just tore you in too. Not easily attainable in a pool. ;) Thanks for the tips Nitrobud. First thing I read in the manual. :cool: Hehehe, Dragonfx. I know what you mean. I´m going to be checking those soon enough. We´ll see. |
hehehe...I know what ya mean. The older I get, the more I tend to be nervous when wading at the beach ,especially if I can't see below me. If I have a mask on, I can at least get an idea of what's around me....not that that would mean much if a tiger, bull, or great white decide to barrel into me and take a chunk out of my leg....yeesh.
I tell you what, when I did my open water dives for my certification, it was along a reef wall -- reef to the right and open blue to the left. I found myself getting very nervous when moving away from the reef and just into the blue....perhaps it's the fact that there's nowhere to hide or back yourself against in an emergency situation...being caught in the open. Truth be told, though...half the time you're your own worst enemy in the water with fear and whatnot. I suppose it's always good to have a little fear as it keeps you alert should a dangerous situation occur. Diving in open water makes you realize just how small you are in this tiny world. |
Shit. I´m starting to get nervous now. Lol.
|
Nah, it's all good, bud. Sharks are more interested in surfers in bathers. Neoprene isn't very tasty. :)
|
Lol, if the fact that they taste with their mouths is true, then they wouldn´t know if it´s tasty or not AFTER biting right?
I can see it man. I can see it. I´m scared. :cool: "Diver in Vzla loses one leg and his penis after shark attack" :cool: |
LOL!
So what? hehe.. We'll just start callin ya stubby right? hehe... j/k m8:) |
Adl, I wish you all the best in whatever direction your path takes you...just remember there's a multitude of trails, feel free to take a new one whenever you want :)

Ok... WTF is going on here? I become more active at SM and now the MODS are leaving? WTF did I do? Is it me? Do I stink? Do I smell funny? What? What are you looking at? Why are you staring at me? Stop it!... STOP IT! NOOOOOO!....
ummm, sorry.. had one of my damn paranoiac episodes. hey adl... there ain't no reason why you still cant hang around. Besides, if you go, that's one less 'head' I get to paste onto other ppl's bodies. :P :beer: |
