Wow, a year ago I almost took a sabatical, due to sickness, & now today texan & I are having to say goodbye for real because of our new jobs. I'm thankful for our jobs, but it's so hard to quit playing the game I've played for nearly two years daily & not logon. My heart aches because of it & I'm so sad right now. I hate say so long to my neat friends here that I've grown close to. I'll think about you all daily & treasure each memory. There's so many names I could mention, and I love you guys, & wish you much success. Thanks for putting up with my long & sometimes annoying messages...LOL. I had so much fun sharing on the boards & reading messages. I know I'll have withdrawals by going cold turkey..hehe. Thanks Ben, for creating this wonderful game & for all you done to make my experience exciting. God bless you Sunny & all my buddies:) Texan will be sharing his own goodbye(*__*)

Be well and make sure to come back and visit from time to time ;)

jstkdn, hi Sis! I know a big percentage plays this game while working jobs, & believe me I would if I could, & if there's a way I will when I can....hehe! Right now, all free time's for preparation on the job. Anyway, I'll check in when I can. I've had a blast chatting with you, & deeply appreicate all you've done for me. You're truly a Champion P.I.:)

Lady Emerald, you're such a sweet young lady & have captured my heart in a short period of time. Though I won't be able to play daily, we'll stay in touch by email. Take care:)

Madam Giry, thanks for the sweet send off. I wish you the best:)

Colonel Shanty, I've enjoyed chatting with you at Tricky Mister. Keep everyone in line there & have fun:)

Gradbeth, I've enjoyed our chats in our special chat room jstkdn created. Your presence there makes it fun. God bless:)

Greyling, thanks for teaching me all about this game when I first joined your agency, Chicago. I'll always remember everyone there & winning my 1st trophy & Chciago returning to No. 1 in rank...wow what a celebration we had...LOL. You're a sweet & great agent:)

P.Rockwell, I've really enjoyed getting to know you & learning we've got music in common, which I've enjoyed discussing. God bless all you do:)

Ichiban, thanks for not wanting me to go, & I don't want to really. I'm proud I got to know you & I wish you the best & much success:)

Sunny, words can't express what I feel about you, Ben & this great mystery game. I've had nearly two exciting years of daily pleasure, while meeting new friends from all over the world. I pray you'll become financially sound because of this great game. Also, I appreciate your kind words as well. God bless:)

Dionne, Thanks hon for the well wishes on our new job. One of the exciting things about our job is we get to work together. Seems this has always been the case throughout our marriage. We're very close, & it's a good thing we are...hehe! Take care:)

Daru... I have talked to you only in the chat room a couple times but i see you on the message board all the time... i will miss that. I have enjoyed your posts. I wish you and texan all the best and goodluck in your new employment endeavors. Like everyone else has said... drop by once in awhile and let everyone know how you guys are doing.

Daru thanks for the help and inspiration that you gave to Moonlighting Detective Agency. Sometimes it's the smallest things that make the most difference. Thanks from all of us!

DaRu, We haven´t talked much, but i´ve read your posts.
I will miss you too, and hope you still have time to stop by.
good luck on your (both) new jobs!!

Wow, I can't type enough words to express my feelings about everyone. To my knowledge there's not another game on the internet that affords this type of close relationships or close community of friendships. Everybody here looks out for each other & does what they can to help which makes this game so special. We're like one big family. I'm amazed at the people's lives I've touched while here & I'm humbled by all the sweet personal popups & messages here. Thank you Skip for your kind words.So proud I could help. Tollo, I'm so sorry I didn't get to know you more, as well as you Moon Lighter, but I read your replies as well on the boards, and always enjoyed them. Hopefully, I'll be able to check back in from time to time & share with you all on the boards. I already miss it more than anything. God bless you all, & I wish you much success:)
