This is all my goofy sense of humor and I have got:


(It's what the game, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, says to you when you try to quit.)


Tex, I've got to say even though we've never met in person, I count you as one of my friends.

All the best to you, man. :(

With Tex stepping down, does that make Gary the evil overlord? :lol:

Well done in being a dad to this community! We sure will miss you in the driver seat.

Thank you for your time and effort all these years.

I remember your announcement on M6 almost five years ago, about this new forum. Good times, good times.

I think it's safe to say that you saved the community when M6 finally died.

Even though my tenure here has been short, I have come to greatly respect you Tex. This is the only forum out of the 5 or so I lurk in that I feel the atmosphere is civil enough to be a frequent poster. Best of luck to you in your future plans, as Walt Whitman put it:

“Do anything, but let it produce joy.”

Live long and prosper!

In the almost year I've been on O-F, I've come to truly respect you and what you've accomplished here. I've made friends here I think will last me quite a while.

Gotta say, with all that you've posted on your cycling, you've definitely started [indirectly] to get me more into the biking community.

Here's to you and a long life Tex. :cheers:

Hit me up if you need a patch or something. :p

Congratulations for owning a place where people do more than just fight for four years. That's not an easy task on the internet...:shifty:

I can't believe it's been 4 years since the Great M6-o-clysm and the rise of OF. Thanks for your work, Tex. Take a break, do your thing, but don't forget to lurk.

What we need is somekind of award to exceptional people around here, both supporting the community or the software add-ons. Thanks are nice, but you sir, deserve an Apoapsis Award for your above-and-beyond efforts! :salute: :cheers: :salute:

It was a pleasure to work with you, Tex! Your wise decisions and great communication style will be missed sadly by the blue and red team.

Have great fun with whatever you'll do! :cheers:
