/\ You like potato salad? If you're reading this Tomhet, please come back. Yuck Tomhet, why on earth are you leaving? When I came on to the forum I really enjoyed your posts, you were a great guy that I could identify with because you had the Dimetrodon avatar. ;D C'mon, come back. -Sigh- Oh yeah that's right, kids don't like vegetables.

Huh. I hope everyone is on good behaviour, because I won't be around much either. Did anyone know this was coming? I have to agree with CCM--Pilty was always quick to jump in when feathers came up, and gave as good as he got. But Tomhet? I did notice he pretty much stayed out of those conversations recently. Unless it was the recent Papo stuff--I really hope that my, well, disdain for Papo was not somehow translated as personal. Hear that everyone? Don't give sbell headache! No, I think there was more going on with tomhet. I just hope that he comes back and visit...like pilty did eventually. I'm sure he will be checking ( as an invisible user) in and see what's going on. I actually sent him a PM knowing that we sometimes have disagreement with Procon (you all remember), I just want to make sure that I did not contribute to his decision to leave. To be honest, even if I don't know any of you personally, I think of all of you as friends. Good god, I talk to some of you regularly almost everyday! ;D Tomhet is not exception. I like the guy, I even sent him figures that I think he really like but was not able to get as a present So let's all play nice, ok? ;D

Is anyone on other boards where he posts? DinoWorld being an obvious one? Has he said anything further there? I think this caught many of us of guard. As for the comment on the Dilong review--it is right there in the comments about who said what. I can see how he might take that personal (being called a creationist is never complimentary, unless you are expressly one); on the other hand, I also found much of the review to be an opinion piece on feather research instead of opinion on the figure (the stuff that related directly to the figure was great though). Nonetheless, I don't think it warranted quite that much vitriol in the comments.

At first I thought it was a joke or that it was a repost of one that Pilty did. Other than that, I have no clue. I don't really visit any other forum. I did read the Dilong review and the comment that set him off. See why I stay far far away from the feather dinosaur discussions?

Wow! I know I'm still relatively new here, but I was definitely caught by surprise!! I've been slowly trying to catch up on all the past threads and posts (that's why I haven't been posting as much as I would like). So, I can't say I'm up on as much as the rest you. But, this certainly is sad news. Even with the little time I had to get to know Tomhet, I found him to be a good and intelligent guy. I hope this can be resolved!

I think I may be the most taken aback by this out of everyone here - it came completely out of the blue for me too. I have emailed Tomhet asking him to reconsider. I will direct him to this thread which I hope will convince him change his mind. Whatever problems he has on the boards, I'm sure they can be remedied...rather than feeling he has to leave.
Crikey! I'm away for less than 24 hours and look what happens...!

Well, you might consider taking a laptop with you next time you leave, lol!
Anyway, in all seriousness, I really hope he comes back and sees all these concerned comments left for him.

It's been a rough year for him, so I think he just needed to take a break. But rest assured he will still be a dinosaur figure collector ;D Oh, he answered my email that's how I know. Someday, maybe he will be back and join us all again ;D
