Hey all, I figured I'd post this in Meta since I'm a substantial contributor to the forum, and I get a lot of PMs from people asking for information or giving me tips.
Someone I respect recently told me I seem like a different person lately and it's true. I'm in a career change and it's not going well.
The last two months I have been studying Object Orientated Programming (before I used to do procedural programming). The end result will be a certification from Microsoft in the C# programming language. I'll be moving my business to 100% programming down from the 20% it is now.
I get frustrated studying (I'm not learning as fast as I was even 10 years ago) and I come back to the forum and the frustration follows me. This causes stress, which in turn, causes me to have more distractions while studying. It's a negative cycle that has to stop right away if I can even hope to meet my time goals.
I won't be logging into the forum (even to check messages) as any news on what's going on here will get me hooked and stressed all over again. I plan on coming back only when I get my Microsoft certification, which should be March or April.
In the meantime I'd ask other default trust members to continue to be vigilant when dealing with newbies, ponzi operators, etc.. all the things I used to handle.
There are a few of you I'll miss chatting with but mostly, this forum has become a waking nightmare to me since I started studying.
Thanks for reading guys, and I'll see you in a couple months!

Nothing wrong with taking a break now and then. Hope it goes well for you.

Hopefully you won't return to find the forums like this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FcMWalaa.gif&t=663&c=Qt3rFoxRG_LDNA) Jokes aside, good luck with your studies Vod, it sounds like you're making the right decison. The forum will be missing a valuable asset during your absence.

This is a very wise decision and I hope it helps you to get that certification. I wish you all the best! In the meantime I'd ask other default trust members to continue to be vigilant when dealing with newbies, ponzi operators, etc.. all the things I used to handle. I will keep my eyes peeled and my negative ratings ready.

Wise decision. This forum is a distraction if your want to study or something else which needs your full attention. Good luck with your studies and exam!

Good luck with studying and new career.
Too bad KingofSports just left too, otherwise he would be celebrating. Also, if coming to the forum stresses you out even more, then that's when you know you should take a step back from dealing scammers and trolls. Instead of constantly getting into quarrels with these guys, just hit the ignore button to enjoy reading through some non-confronting threads. Tomatocage seems to be doing a fine job at tagging accounts without getting into the bickering battles.

Agreed. If this forum is negatively effecting your personal life in such a way I think you're making the right decision in taking a break. Good luck and I'm sure your presence will be missed by most (but not the scammers ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ).
