Sorry to hear that, that's really unfortunate and I would never want to wish that upon anyone. I wish you a speedy recovery with hopefully no lasting side effects.
Thank you, I appreciate that. Unfortunately, I am unable to walk anymore.
That said, it has been a GOOD amount of quiet while you've been gone.
For the love of god/shiva/onions, please don't let these new relays turn into Conrad and Nathaniel 'Cordially' Suchy's DeadGreyPonyIT show again.
My sin was over advertising on the list, I will take that. Oh, and arguing with an arrogant asghshole. Otherwise, it was others. I can't control the actions of other people. They did what they did.
As far as the 12 year old douche bag, don't worry about my association with him. When I came home and I was catching up on the list and I read his "disassociation" email, I felt this sharp pain in my back, and I realized that Mr. Cordially just stabbed me in front of all of the relay operators. It's all good though, I was able to stop the bleeding and continue catching up on the list.
No one else cares about you and your confused lackeys attempts to be big-boy tor relay operators.
Yes, I understand that, which is why I went silent after I was told to stop advertising.
If you wish to join the network again, please do it in the style of someone respectable like Quintex - He just 'does' it, and doesn't clog up everyone's inboxes with useless messages about new nodes/downtime/'customers'/things that should be experimented with or tested on your own first. It's not a competition to get the fastest speeds from a box, the most nodes (maybe a personal goal, being mindful of operator percentages) or anything else. We're just here for the bigger cause.
I mainly sent my email to explain my absence for the past couple of months. I apologize that it offended all of the operators. Since y'all are so easily offended by my email explaining my absence shall I just take my shit down and do something else?
We, and all tor users appreciate your efforts in running a relay of any kind, we can just do without the 'look at me' circus again.
I don't give a shit about the 'Look at me' circus. Previously, my main goal was to get more FreeBSD nodes on Tor, and it turned into a 'Look at me' shit show, I'll admit that, but I was no part of that. I thought that was a respectable goal.
Love, Old Man Tor.
[Sent from a throwaway account, over Tor of course. Cowardly, but I said what needed to be said that a lot of other relay operators are thinking but are too scared to say.]

Hi Tor-Relays,
I apologize that I just disappeared, I wound up with a massive stroke last year which was more significant than the last one and was hospitalized longer for recovery and rehabilitation. Things just kind of fell to the wayside since it's kind of hard to computer when you can't computer :P.
Anyway, I've been home for the past few weeks and starting to get back into my old hobbies again. I brought two new exit relays up in NYC, one Linux, and one FreeBSD on 1 Gb/s Links. I have another FreeBSD box in NYC on a 1 Gb/s link that I'm trying to think if I should make an exit relay or just a regular relay.
Relay names - greyponyitnyc001 and greyponyitnyc002.
I hope everyone is having a good day!
