Thanks to those that supported me and no hard feelings to those that have a different position. I am glad to be quit with all of you. The line of separation is gone again in April 2013 and I am glad. I will post there again untill it comes back and when it does I am still steadfast in my position. Have a good day.

The following was posted in April, 2013 in response to Nick's post earlier today. I thought it appropriate to post a copy in here in support of Nick's convictions.


Hey Nick. I sure did not intend to start a sand storm in your house by my post yesterday, but since you and I are friends, I just wanted to let you know why I am no longer posting support in April. Although I received numerous text messages the past 24 hours, most of which were sarcastic mini dramas being played out by my old nemesis SS-Ron to which I simply told him to go fuck himself in response, I wanted to explain my decision to you. As I have not previously waded into April’s water regarding the issue of separation, I just assumed that the divisional line of separating the quit group from the rest of the supporters would come down. Initially, I thought it was just an oversight after the April group hit HOF. Then it became apparent that several supporters of April were taking issue with the line, yet the divisional line remained. I wondered why April was apparently so different from the 90+ other quit groups. Were they special? Did they not want to be a part of KTC? Why did they not want to conform? Did they think that the other 16,000 members would hold them in some higher esteem or regard? Why did they not want to be like the rest of the KTC community? Why would they not want to be a continuing part of this Brotherhood? This did not make sense to me, but I continued to post support. Three weeks ago before I left for Sturgis, the divisional line had apparently come down. Upon my return last weekend it was back up. A few vets that I spoke with told me it only came down for 4 days and Administration’s position was “It is their house, their rules. If you don’t like it, don’t post support.” After careful consideration, I decided I did not like the divisional segregation and would not support it. I posted as much yesterday and immediately SS-Ron and his minions started texting me their rants about “drama”. These queens live for drama, so if my post was that dramatic to them so be it. Anyway, I just wanted you to know the rationale behind my decision to withhold support. Finally, considering the sheer number of nights that you and I stayed up rolling the boards over so that they would be ready for the respective groups to post roll each morning, I think we both understand the brotherhood concept associated with KTC much better than the distracters. We volunteered, we did our work, we contributed when others would not, we payed it forward…can the minions say that? No, they just want to bitch and call us Nazi’s. I loved that one. You are certainly welcome to post in February, 2013. I understand your position to post in other groups until the divisional line of segregation is removed. I will quit with you any day of the week my friend. Wayne

Thought I would put this here too.

Good morning quitters.
For the past 237 days I have posted roll here every day. It is the way I quit and have stayed quit. There is a issue that has divided us with so many other quitters and I feel that I need to put in my opinion now. It is time for the line to go. I do not understand why it is still there and it seems that there are a few that are very determined to keep it. Seeing this yesturday kind of set me wrong:"wmcatty 273 Last time posting with April, as I dont subscribe to, nor will I support, a segregated lifestyle and house. Best of luck to you all and stay quit." I think I am going to go with it too. Today will be my last time posting in April 2013 untill the line is gone. I will still post my quit every day just not here. There are a lot of other groups to post in.

I must confess that for a while now I have blown in and out, posting roll and leaving. I see today that a war has been brewing and shit has hit the fan. I see that most of the quitters involved are ones that have always been a great support to me from the begining of my quit. Quitters from April 2013 and from other groups. It does look like some things have been said that may have been out of line or taken the wrong way and some of you need to hug it out. I hope that you all can sort it and get back to being a happy family of quitters again.

If you all need some thing to be angry about or take action here are a few things I belive to be very important:
-Our government is mired in grid lock blinded by greed and special interest groups.
-1 in 7 kids will go to bed hungry tonight.
-I pay more in taxes than I do in rent.(I live in a nice place.)
-There are 200+ kids in foster care in Michigan alone in need of a adoptive family and thousands across the USA.
----MOST IMPORTANT-----
--1 IN 88 KIDS WILL BE DIAGNOSED WITH AUTISM.


Just my thoughts as a April 2013 FOG CUTTER.

Last night I met up with spartanron and IG2H.  What a good time.  It was great to meet up with two guys that are instrumental in my quit.  Anyone out there that has the opertunity to meet up with quitters do so.  It is great to put the person behind the texts, calls, and computers to a real person.
Absolutely agree 100 percent. Post some pics.
Congratulations to three great quitters! Ron is a day ahead of me, nick... I think we are on the same day. And Ryan keeps running but just can't seen to catch up!

Well done to 3 guys that shared a fucking aweful experience and came out in a great place 180+ days later. Hope you had a drink for me.
It was a pleasure to meet these 2 gentlemen. Had a frosty Oberon and a pile of wings. Unfortunately the wings are not sitting too well today. Uhhhgg.
