Do to the lack of desire and interest.
Will the Admin suspend this account?
I will not be checking pms or the boards.
Thank you John R

You might not sign back in, but I’m sorry to see you go! Wish you gave your decision more time.

John, I’m a bit confused. You seemed to be pretty damn active of late. What would prompt you to want to suspend your account?
That being said, no, I will not suspend it. It will be waiting here for you when you decide to return.

John, if it’s a personal issue with any member send Justin a PM. You’ve been extremely active of late, don’t want to lose you! Since I’ve been a member I’ve read and responded to many of your threads. Hopefully whatever is bothering you will pass shortly.

It must have been my “Cooking fried potatoes in an overheated cast iron skillet while bare chested video thread” that I posted.
Even the wife said I jumped the shark on that one.

John, will miss you on the boards, but only after meeting you once at the pipe club, I very much hope to see you there in the future. You're a good soul, a much needed curmudgeon, and a teller or great tales, not to mention a font of knowledge when it comes to the 'baccy.

My earlier post was meant as self deprecating..an attempt to lighten the mood.

It could be that someone is leading him away from pipe smoking. If thats the case, hanging around here sure isn't going to help much.
I know a guy who quit simply because his health insurance carrier was going to like double (!) his premium if he didn't. Poor guy still keeps all of his pipes (last I read) in his neat pipe case, all laid out in their racks, shined, and cleaned. The thing is like a mausoleum now. Sometimes he smokes raspberry leaves and other smoke-able herbs when the craving comes on strong.
Can't help but to feel sorry for the fellow.

@johnr I am sad to hear this. You were so good to me and I've enjoyed reading your posts. I'm glad Justin isn't suspending your account. Come back when you feel ready. We'll be waiting for you.

I believe he left a Facebook group as well. No explanation.

Well as you all know john_r created my custom reaming tool from a broken Sav reamer. I have used that tool at least once a week since I got it. I owe john_r more than I can repay. I am sad that something has happened to provoke this post. I am also wondering why this wasn't done in a pm.
