Toast To ODN...

[Alpha1]

When I read about you stepping down as a BF mod I must admit I was shocked and angry. Even though I don't know you that well, I have always respected you and your opinions. I am sure I speak for a lot of people on the Carlton boards when I say that you made us feel safe, happy and contented always knowing we had a safe harbor on these boards. I would have liked to get to know you a little bit better, unfortunately it has been too short a time and it was with shock I read your thread. Even to this moment in time I hope it was just a Aprils fool joke (please let it be so). I shall always respect you for the person you were on here, integrity and courage and more than likely the best mod on here. I hope you still continue to post on these boards, I have always enjoyed reading your thought's, good luck with whatever you do.

ODN definitely won't be forgotten around these parts as well as the rest of BigFooty for a long while, I think.

Cheers for making me feel so welcome when I first came to this forum, mate.

 

[Smell The Glove]

As a poster with a long infraction history and a natural dislike for moderators, I have to say ODN was one of the more likeable ones.

You're a strange man Alpha1.

ODN feels like my grandfather. You love him and take him for granted and when he is gone you miss him like hell as nobody can take his special place.
ODN I know she must be one hell of a girl but we need you!

Guns, there was some hotheaded rashness involved here but also some genuine outside struggles. Work suffers, sleep suffers, fiancee is getting sued (any legal eagles out there want to give me some advice), took on junior soccer manager's job and it takes up a lot of time. I have no idea what life is like without all this added responsibility.

The kind words by my fellow supporters is touching and has me wondering if I can squeeze it all in. I was on BigFooty during lean, depressing times, through relationship breakups, through new relationships, during custody battles, you name it. It has been a constant and what a fantastic bunch of people.

I must say, not having to log in for a while, not having to deal with idiots, not having to be responsible for what little aspect of my life, well it feels like a relief at the moment.

Who knows what will happen, life moves fast and mysteriously.

the wablues went thru a similar thing yet not as personal. I remember sitting at the Odin with 3 other people. Now we have 300+. Shame if you can not reap what you did sow!
I know the toil of family life. I also have many contacts. Happy to help in any way. PM me with your needs of legal req etc

 

[Stig O'Hara]

As addictive as this bloody thing is
the genuine time you spent during Black Saturday
is a true indicator of your passion for this nameless/faceless wordfest.

The Club and this thing, will always be here.

Wish you all the best.

Take 14 bucks out of petty cash, get yourself a Schnitzel,
and a couple of quiet sodas

ODN who is 2IC? Who do I now refer to? Who has the combo to the nukes?

Then don't deal with the other idiots, just deal with our idiots.

Loved the battles between ODN and St.Kilda's JeffDunne -could always rely on ODN to cream his opponents with cold hard facts.

Should go into politics !

One of the best rivalries here on BF. They'll be missed for sure.

Really sad to see ODN go he has been a legend around bigfooty. Really respected his posting quality since i joined a few years back and i hope he stays on even though he is giving up his moderator position.

are you referring to me as trash?

 

[FieryNayta]

The classiest mod on BigFooty. Cuts people down with intelligent and measured replies and backs up his fellow supporters like no other.

Thanks for good job mate
