    Wow, I go away for a few hours to work out and then I come back to this? Man... what to say?

    Well, Sensei, you've been a great pal (a cyber-pal, I guess, having never really met you ), and I hope that whatever you are going to do now treats you well. If it doesn't, well call on us here and we'll come lay the smack down.

    Seriously though, I think we're all really grateful for what you've started and what you've done for all of us by giving us this place to come together. I know I would probably not be where I am with Linux now if it weren't for the help I've received here over the year and a half I've been here. Hopefully the site will continue to flourish, but without you behind the wheel it's hard to say.

    Do keep in touch with us every once in a while, will ya?
    We love Sensei!!

    it only shows HAL in forums that we are HAL's for, sensei is/was the only mod for LNO Talkback, so we show regular here
    Use the right tool for the right job!

    Okay, so who wants to start the next Gen LNO? I don't know about you guys, but the whole not knowing how he got fired doesn't ring too true with the general ideals of Linux...maybe it's time for some of us to get together and start a NEW LNO, free from corporate pigs and the like...I realize this has been tried before, but I don't think we were in danger before...

    What happens if the all-powerful internet.com (like the have a right to that name) gods decide that the LNO forums are no longer worth their money? Anybody else agree with me on this? I was about a 2 months away from starting and enterprise Linux site with njcajun awhile ago but apparently that fell apart.

    Anywho, I've got a hankerin to do some designin, and I thinks it's time that the LNOers took charge of their own destinies and started something that WE control, not some cold-blooded bastard of a company. What do you guys think?

    well, I don't know of any other sites like this (this is, IMO, the best linux site out there), but there is always #linuxhelp on irc.xchat.org for help. It's just not the same as LNO though...

    We'll all miss you, Sensei. Won't be the same.

    Of course, I have a feeling that if you stick around the boards you'll remain the de facto leader of LNO and we'll all just ignore as much as possible whoever else comes along.

    Come to #lno on irc.openprojects.net for quicker answers to your questions (but search the web first).

    So Sensei, you gunna stop by the official LNO channels on irc (#lno on irc.openprojects.net) and give all us hardcore fans on irc (Okay it's just me for now..) a real chance to beat on you?

    I know of one http://www.linuxquestions.org although not a populated as LNO... Back to topic
    Although I don't post much, mostly just lurk, I stumbled on this site back when I first tried Linux (Linux Mandrake 6.5 whatever year that was)and it was a beautiful thing when I saw the NHF on how to set up my Soundblaster Live. So Sensei, it's sad to see you go and I hope whatever your next endeavor is I hope you have as much success as you did with LNO.

    We spend all this time on your board making it what it is and you won't even let us beat on you on IRC for a few minutes!? oh comon, you can multitask! Besides, we got Bradmont and Mandreko there too now.

    Oh, and if any other LNO'ers wanna join (with or without Sensei...) that don't have IRC figured out, there's a link on the bottom of the front page labeled "chat" which will take you to a java chat proggie that'll get you onto this channel on IRC.

    Sorry to see you are leaving (even if it is involuntary)

    I could not have survived Linux, without the LNO. I only hope most of the people will stay with the site.

    Good luck on your new ventures, and dont forget to come and visit.
    Cheers
