So sorry to see you go as I will miss your posts. You've been so very helpful to me.
Please take care of yourself. I hope the time with your brother & his family will allow you some peace of mind to regroup & discover new prospects for yourself that, perhaps, you couldn't see under the stress of just trying to stay afloat. I wish you the best.

Baditude, I'm so very sorry!! You have definitely been a standout on this forum and I too will miss your presence. Wish I could do something to help. I believe age discrimination is very real and wish you hadn't got caught in it. I wish you the very best and hope to see you back here soon!!
I'm so sorry...I will pray for you. Just try to be strong and remember when one door closes, another will open. I wish you the very best and pray everything will work out in your best intrest..I'm truly sorry you have to go through this kind of pain. If you ever need a friend, or to talk, I will be here for you. Good luck in your journey. May God bless you. Again I'm so very very sorry this happened to you!
I'd chip in gladly to help pay for that connection! And I'm sure many of you would be willing to help out too! So let's not just talk about it but get it done! I do not have experience in this type in setting up something like this, but I'm sure willing to provide some time. After all, Bad has donated a lot of time and expertise here, and if we can give back a fraction of what we got out of it, he would be set for years to come! Anyone with experience in this regard, please pipe up!
And Bad, before you say no, let us give back just a little. You've forgotten more about vaping than most of us will ever know and it would be my honor to be able to give back a fraction of what I got from you!
I know there are forum rules concerning solicitation and I want to be clear that this is not what I'm doing here. If this post violates those rules, I apologize in advance, but will simply find another way to get it done!
I agree. I would be glad to chip in as well.
I'm new here but in the short time I've been here I found all your posts and blogs to be so helpful.
There's no doubt you bring knowledge and passion and it wouldn't be the same without you.

There aren't enough like buttons in the world to convey how touched I am by your offer of generosity!
Sorry to hear of your situation. I may find myself in your shoe in the near future.
Thank and best wishes.
Thank and best wishes.
No, please stop with this talk. This is simply not allowed. If this talk continues I will respectfully ask that the thread be closed.
This was not the intention of this thread. The forum is far greater than just one single member. There are many veterans here fully capable of stepping in to do what I did.

Yet it will still, for a time be diminished without you.
Don't sell short your importance, to others and most importantly to yourself. Take that advice, and we'll see you back soon.
Until then my friend.
I want to wish you well and hope that this is more temporary than permanent. You will be sorely missed.
This thread is getting long and most are not reading the whole thing. This is what/why Bad was asking people to stop talking about.
Damn that is rough. Good thoughts your way sir. I hope things turn around soon.
Count me in ... lets get a kickstarter or something going.
Bad, don't even think about closing this please.
and If he does ... let's get some PMs happening.
It doesn't have to be a lot (I got no apartments to help with) ... however, if we get something going ... it is easier with a group ... I'm in.
And Bad ... we know this is not the purpose of this thread ... we know your humble style.
Roll with this dude and lets see if we can help a brother out.
Cheers

fingers crossed everything works out sooner rather than later.
I'll miss being able to reply to battery threads with "baditude will be along to give you the correct answer in a few I'm sure." until you get back.

I understand completely your situation and I'm sorry to hear it. I am nearing retirement and your post reminded me to be grateful to be somewhat secure in my current employment situation. If ever there was a template for being a good citizen of a board like this, you would surely be it. Thanks for your help in the short time I've been here and please don't hesitate to reach out to any who have offered to help, even if it's just career advice. You're too young to pack it in and not start a second career, and there is currently money (grants, etc.) for re-training available if there's a post secondary or technical school nearby. Think about that route. Good luck to you. If there is something like karma, something good is coming your way. We'll all be looking forward to your return and the story you'll tell.
Some misfortunes fall on the best people. I haven't been here long, but in the time I have it wasn't hard to see how respected and present you were on this forum. You will surely be missed!

Baditude, I keep seeing images of you working in a vape shop in the future and finding an internet connection to keep you here on ECF. At ECF you are an institution of knowledge when it comes to technical advice. We'll miss you if the connection technology isn't at your new location, but I hope you will find a way to stay online and with us after your move.
I also see you as being THE BATTERY GUY who we could count on to sell only the best at a fair price. Baditude's Battery Barn on a web site would be supported wildly by all here at ECF. Think about it. People have made millions with just a little startup money for a good idea. You definitely have the credentials.
Keep in touch. Think about the positives where you can find them. I think you are the type to make things work out just fine.

Good luck and God speed, Bad. I know you said you didn't want comments here but I missed the other thread. You have been a great source of knowledge for me and have helped me on my way more than you can know. Best wishes to you.
