Arty, You are saying goodbye and my Abi no longer comes here except for a small bit of seed right before dusk for a few minutes. Yesterday I did not see him at all! This is very strange. You are disappearing and so is my Abi. I guess it was time for Abi to move on and maybe find a mate. But for you to leave ParrotChatter will be a major disaster! You are the reason we are all here in the Dove/Pigeon Forum and many others. We need your wisdom and a shoulder to sometimes cry on! You are such a kind hearted person and we appreciate all you do for the Bird of Peace dearly! Without you this forum will fall apart! They say all good things must come to an end...but I am a firm believer that eventually all bad things will come to and end. We just have to keep saying our prayers and do all the good we can for all Gods creatures! Especially the Bird of Peace! They need us as we need you here! You are the Good! Please do not leave!
Hugs and a peck, Donna & Abi

Arty, I have tremendous respect for your efforts and dedication. A lot of people love you here. Please keep that in mind.

Arty, please don't leave. You are needed here.

Leah

arty. I have learned a lot from you and continue to do so.... please stay.....

Arty I hope you come back to read these replies. It was a simple misunderstanding - there have been lots of forum problems - technical in nature recently.

I have to say I was so surprised that you took offense right away. Could it be that there are other issues that are putting you on edge?

We need you here & respect you.

Exactly. As Karen stated in another thread, the FC forum will be back up and running shortly.

Please, Arty, stay! Ruby and I love reading your writings and we would miss you very much. How will we know when the doves and pigeons need help?

I think everyone has summed it up, Arty.
You are needed here.
You are wanted here.
We love you!

As others have said here, Arty, you have helped them in your forum. Hopefully you will stay with us.

I sincerely hope you will not leave parrotchatter. The dove/pigeon forum needs you....it is your creation. Please stay! It wouldn't be the same without you! I have read many past threads and you have helped so many people and birds...your work here is important...
