Abandoning all of my accounts now.

Any special reason?

 

[Lemon Zing]

An Aussie reason.

Nah.

I just lost interest, really, and aim to get a life...

 

[tree]

What's that from?

Those aren't Usernames on this forum.

 

[Lemon Zing]

It is actually some other forum, that's similar to this, where the admin left it unmoderated.

The guy just spams like an idiot on it, using multiple aliases.

But in general, it's time to do stuff offline too, because I find being online all day ain't healthy.

Sometimes being online is safer, especially where l live.

Yeah, this sort of thing can depend wildly depending on the area.

Like, where I'm at, this general region and the nearby towns are, overall, very safe, with next to nothing happening at any given time. To the point where if something DOES happen, it's big news. This is a very rural area.

Buuuuuuuut, drive for about an hour on the tollway in a north-east direction and you'll find yourself in Chicago, which is a freaking hellhole. VERY dangerous place. I dont envy those that actually live there. Heck, you could not pay me any sum of money to get me to go there. It's nasty. For those that are stuck there... yeah, online is DEFINITELY safer.

I went to Chicago but it was beautiful. The museums and restaurants are great. Before the violence intensified.

It's not about velocity.

Godspeed, meaning "a prosperous journey," comes from the Middle English phrase God spede you ("God prosper you"). It was originally used to wish success to someone, like saying, “May you prosper.” These days it's more often used to express hopes for a safe trip.

Thanks, Tree. I knew it wasn't about velocity, actually. I failed to make it obvious enough that my question was facetious. Words are a special interest for me and I do remember looking up "godspeed", but didn't remember the origin of the "speed" part.

I had lived in Libertyville and had enjoyed many things about it. Some of the concerts at Millennium Park. The National Museum of Mexican Art in the Pilsen neighborhood, especially as Dia de Los Muertos approaches. Last time I did Bike the Drive, there were 26,000 cyclists turned loose on it. there is the positive and negative about many places. And, the Chicagoland region has an amazing network of bike trails.

I happened to log into my Gmail account earlier, to see the Australian troll had subscribed me to several illegal and vile sites. I cannot say what it was about, but you can probably imagine it was gross.

It was definitely him. But I don't think I can do much about his online harassment. I even tried to persuade somebody in his country to report him, as I reside in the UK, and she was active on a forum he has recently targeted. She didn't want to know, after misleading me for a week.
