My departure notice by Lasker

I will be leaving this site as I have completed most of what I started out to do. The time has come. I would like to leave giving a special thanks to Thibault and Clarkey. Who together have made this a wonderful site which I have enjoyed. I would like to thank them personally for the good times I have had playing chess here.
Between personal affairs and tying of some loose ends here, I shall be closing my account on Monday the 25th around noon. In the mean time I will not engage in any games rated or otherwise. If you would like to save some of my games now is the time to do so.

Your friend in chess,
Lasker
It's sad to see you go, Lasker - could you not perhaps just edit your profile to say that you've gone instead of closing your account outright? It'd allow future players to go through your games easily and facilitate your return sometime in the future if circumstances work out.

If you're still inclined towards closing your account, I understand.

Perhaps we could play one last game, go out on a great note :)

leckie_ogorkie,

This is not a rude response, but take a moment a reread my statement and the answers you seek are there.

Are you Robert Hungaski? I assume your chess commitments are too great, if so. Shame to see you go, you're not a bad old player :)
LM AdmiralA,

As I stated in my statement, I am inclined not to play anymore games before my departure. But thanks for the sentiments and offer.
-Lasker
I respect your decision, and wish you all the best with your future endeavours!

Sic itur ad astra, Lasker!

It's sad to see good players go.
I hope that things go well for you for the rest of your time on this Earth.

God bless.
Proverbs 3:5-6,

Jaque.
Jaque_Mate,

Such a nice thing to say and you are a Christian also.
May God bless you and your endeavourers.

How sad to see you go. Please do not close your account but let us still see your games. I thank you for your wonderful contribution to this site. Goodbye. :(
