Evil, I don't think you and I have ever chatted or crossed paths, but I look up to you and all of the vets. I don't know what prompted this, but I can't help but think if I was pulling this that you and 10 other multiple floor quitters would be calling me a special butterfly. So if the butterfly fits...........
Spot on.

I find that speaks for actual character. Website personas are total bullshit.

Is your quit as badass as you've implied through your "persona"?

Prove it.




Should I stay or should I go now?

Whatever your decision is it will not effect me. That is both sad and true I suppose Regardless, I will be here giving my word every day and upholding it to those that read it. I am not cured at day 366. Tomorrow? Maybe, but I doubt it. I still think about it many times a day proving the the smoltering remains of that romance are not dead; it is just awaiting for a flame to invigorate it and strip me of my Quit status. That won't happen. Not Today. Because I am here.

You can add your name to that list of "half-assed quitters but more likely cavers that are too weak and pussyish to admit it." ...


Note: I wish I could lay claim to those words, but those are your words. I inserted my days quit vice yours - you were at day 499 when you wrote that to dabean. I think your departure is BS... I have seen plenty of flare ups on this site  I have seen plenty of people stay here and make a daily promise. Heading for the hills and running... whether you think you have a plan or not... it is the old you. The nic B has found a kink in the armor. Best of luck with your plan.
It's all rather disgusting. Much like the spit and dip in the bottle.

Evil this aint a bash you party but you have words out there that are meaningless if the person isn't here to practice what he has preached.... I would be remiss if I didn't tell you I think you are in dangerous territory, the first of your participation was renouncing your position as Mod, dropping to just posting your roll to dropping out all together....I ask you what would you have told someone else if you saw this happening to them? You would have told them what Derk has written above...you would be on them. You would have said I smell a planned cave coming...the list goes on how we bring back one of our own here at KTC. As stated above what you decide won't effect me, I am not gonna beg you to come back or hold you to 700 you are grown. I have said it earlier and will say it again post your roll let whatever it is blow over...ODAAT bro.
The problem w this site is you can't read the true intention of the written word or hear the inflection most of the time. Shit happens in life on top of our over worked and stressed schedules. Personally been going through a career search/change for the last 5 months and its taken a toll.
This is my quit and I own it but I have people who 'have my back'. Are you still one of those?

Not sure WTF happened in here, but Jason you know that I am here anytime you need a beer, an ear or anything else. I carried your own quit coin in my pocket for 100 days, another quitter carried the torch after that. You were very instrumental in my quit and although I have been quiet on the forum lately we still talked via text. Fuck the drama walk away from a bit, use the other tools and we will stay quit. Granted KTC and the KTC way works but at times it can be too big a cross to bear. Take a deep breath and relax brother because life is a bitch, no need to have more bitches in it either.

For what it's worth, this place is better with you than without you, you're probably better off with KTC than without KTC.
Get yer ass back in here, fuck the drama (whatever it was/is).

Ok my friend,

Lets slow down a little and look at how far you have come.

Quit for 600+ days,
Was a pillar within your Jackwagin group who others looked to
Was regarded with such a high esteem for what you had done for others as you were given the opportunity to serve as a chat moderator
You have the support of how many that you have met in person there in the Chicago area.

And though out this all you have given so much great advice to others. You cannot say that you have not seen this same behavior in others only to see them return at a later date after a leave with a new day 1.

Now I hope everything is ok at home with the housing (next door) and such, but Jason you better not be turning your back on family here.

As others say, take what you need. Leave the rest. And I know you have said that too.

Just don't give it up and throw it all away.

Be good and you know how to get in touch with me if you need to talk.

Go fuck yourself.
Take what you need and leave the rest. Go back and read some of the things you yourself have said to others right here in our quit home... Take your own advice Jason!
Quitters need you! You need them! Whatever your reasons for leaving are not good enough. You would tell anyone doing exactly what you're doing that it's a planned cave. Or you might just tell them to fuck off and go to lite. Either way, you wouldn't be okay with this.
Don't throw away everything you have here on KTC over drama (whatever it may be). Suck it up, post roll and get back to doing what you do here... QUIT! Others are counting on you to lead by example. Besides, didn't you give your word to post through 700? According to my calculations, if you are a man of integrity, you're stuck posting for 79 more days. That aught to give you a little time to think about your decisions and what you need to do.

Regardless of anything, Jason, I quit with you every damn day. Now shove your pride and stubbornness to the side for a bit and post roll! No coddling here, remember?!
I agree. He owes us at a minimum 79 days.
What the he'll did I miss?
Jason drama is drama we all know you need us as much we need you. You have a very strong core of supporters don't let us down.
What the hell? blow it off and get back in here. Take your own advice, stated ^^^, is right. You have impacted hundreds, from my class on.
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!
