Oh, I've just read this thread from the beginning, I don't know how I missed it all the first time!
Fr Bill, I'd like to tell you to ignore the few insensative posts on this thread, but I know how hard that can be sometimes.
I read every last word of your post, and although I am sorry if you felt you had to clarify or justify your reasons for leaving, I have to admit I am glad that you did - I myself found AB on the off-chance, having stayed away from this kind of site before. The community and friendships that have formed through this website alone really surprised me, and are one of the reasons that I (shock-horror!) signed up here!
I am undecided as to whether using username and sign-off is a mistake, but sometimes it's comforting none-the-less.
I don't know how the recent (ish) events have left you feeling about answerbank in generall, but please know there will always be someone here to help, and very possibly someone who needs help will be next in the queue.
Although (excuse the expression) I may be preaching to the choir - this has helped me - Philippians 4:6 - 7.
I am well and truly done now, honestly.
Take care. Claire x
