Purge?
 

Well, look at the time. It's been fun here in the Cellar, it really has, but it's time to leave you all and say so long. I am backing slowly up the stairs, erasing my tracks as I go, and will close the door softly behind me. In this regard, I tried to delete my posts and close my account, but I can't figure out how to do that.

Can anyone tell me, at the least, how to delete my Cellar account?

We don't generally do that unless it is a personal emergency. If that's the case send me a PM.

Ah.....the crosses we trolls have to bear.

I'm so sorry you are leaving, Hung. I enjoy your posts.

If I may be so rude--why are you leaving? Natch, you don't have to answer that--I'm a nosey brat.

Whether you 'splain or no-- I will miss you.

I'm sorry to see you go, too. You're a fun poster.

Two things are motivating me to withdraw from the Cellar.

When I first arrived, I intended to just drop off an image for IOTD and be gone. So I chose a username that I thought was somewhat creative and signed up. But after I had posted a few times I began to feel that the name HungLikeJesus is very likely hurtful to a number of people. That is the primary reason that I wanted to erase the posts associated with that name, in addition to deleting the account (would BaldLikeBudda be any better? or HinduCheeseburger? No, I don't think so.).

The second thing is that, when I've occasionally found myself in threads where there is a heated debate going on, instead of being the voice of reason (as if that could help!), I've tended to poke the fire with my own sharp stick. This isn't the way I am in real life, and I regret being that way here.

I'm a little bit ambivalent because there is something I've been wanting to write for the Creative Expression forum.

HLJ is a a perfect name for a cellarite, poking with sharp sticks and being a secret inner self is good here, and just do it.

Don't run off , if your user name is to weird PM UT he should be able to change it ,
Post your goodie in the creative wrighting thread , there is lots of good stuff there .
Besided this place is like CRACK , you get a little tast and you CAN'T quit !!

Yeah if all you want is a username change, just tell me what you want the new one to be.

And if I missed it at the contact us form you can pelt me for it, I've missed a few requests recently, busy.

Hell, I've changed mine 23 times already. Problem is I keep forgetting what it was and keep changing it to the same one. Gonna have to start writing stuff down.

I like seeing your name around, HLJ--it makes me smile. Plus. it reminds me of when my Jewish fiance had to go to christmas mass with me one year. He looked up and said, "shit, look what they did to that other Jew!" :lol:

If they are truly offended, not a little irked/miffed/annoyed but really offended, they won't last long around here anyway.

Awwww c'mon HLJ, change your name or just stay as you are.

I love your poking posts, and sometimes the heated threads need a prodding to get the new p.o.vs stirred up.

Please, if we grew on you that fast, just change your name. HLJ is a good one to change it to, since 'we' won't forget who you are and it shouldn't offend anyone so then you can still stay. Just cuz you stirred some shit around a little before, doesn't mean we won't take other posts seriously. Cripes, have you learned nothing from LJ?

*insert some soppy flowery crap about growing and life and shit here*

I really didn't expect such an encouraging response.

Ok, I'll stay - under two conditions:
1) I can change my name to HLJ (though I also like TylerDurden; Lord Undertoad, I'll let you know)
2) I think we all need to see a little more NSFW exposure in the Quality Images forum. Think of the positive health benefits! Will anyone second that motion?

(xoB, I thought you were one of the ones the name offended. 135 posts and still no "Welcome to the Cellar" :mecry:)
