DISCLAIMER: I KNOW THE POLL SOUNDS BIASED BUT JUST TAKE IT AS A YES/NO CHOICE. THAT'S ALL. THANKS
I need some opinions. This is important and this thread has a reason to be.
Who here thinks that evan should come back? Or not? Comments are appreciated, but keep it clean. Mods, don't close this, it's really not an attempt to piss anyone off. Please show some maturity. I will post what I think once I get any replies.
NO ATTACKS
We have to show him we appreciate him so he can come back.

well, I think that if we can tolerate his putting newbies in their places (according to guidelines. That would be, if someone asks a question that has been asked a million times, but it is in the Newbie forum, then they are untouchable), then I would definately appreciate having his knowledge back again. He's a great guy (having met him now) and I know that I take what he says into consideration when doing something to my car.

We have to show him we appreciate him so he can come back? I will not do that for him or any member here on XD. If he wants to come back and if he isnt banned then he will come back on his own without any outside influences.

The only reason he doesn't want to come back is because he thinks everyone hates him.
I, for one, have learned a lot from evan. I think he should come back, and we would have to re-structure the 'n00b' thing, with either a post moderation or whatnot.

I voted "No... he doesnt know much" just to piss him off when he reads this ;)

though he is very knowledgeable, i do feel that he should come back under one condition. he lighten up a bit on the newer members. he too was once a newb here, and the new guys need a chance to learn before being attacked for their ignorance.
so my vote, yes.

He is a great source for information from what I have seen in his threads/post and if he thinks everyone hates him then let the people who hate him speak up in this thread and we will talk about it, im sure he is reading this. I dont hate him, I hate no one I was not brought up to hate. I may not have liked the way he treated some members like me for example, he got nasty with me a few times but hey forgive is to forget! and he also needs to work on his temper with noobs but im sure him and alot of other members know this.

If he wants to come back, that's his decision. No one banned him, but he did manage to get a swell of negative public opinion on his back before he decided to duck out. If he can cool his jets, I don't think anyone would mind if he came back, but if he returned spitting fire all the time just like before he left, I think it'd drive a lot of people away. I know I personally was sick of it, and I got plenty of complaints about it.
I think this poll is a bit biased anyway - why not just label it yes/no? He didn't stop coming because people were like, "Dude that evan guy doesn't know anything about Elantras." The reason people were upset at him was because he was being a hothead.

Yeah that poll will not get my vote unless it is changed to a simple yes or no.

evan doesn't post anymore not because he thinks everyone hates him. in fact he doesn't give a DAMN that anyone hates him. i am going to leave out why he doesn't but its not because he felt "unloved" haha. and this is a pointless thread. i doubt he'll come back

well, someone has to be telling the truth. For heavens sake, one of the two of you get evan to post in this thread and we can stop hearing evan's side of things through everyone else.

THE reason (notice the emphasis on THE) that evan does not want to come back is due a certain number of members that evan cuts wrists for everytime he reads their posts. He realized that reading retarded posts that induce him to physically hurt himself was not good for his health.
And also I chat with him on AIM so I know the truth. ;)

So, maybe this thread should be less of a "why did evan leave, in your own personal opinion as interpreted through the conversations with Evan" thread, to a "what do you think about evan" thread.

yo who cares if he comes back or not, this thread it making it like we all need him here and we sweat his nuts. Im fine with or without him.. Thats my vote.

ummm heres evan's words!!!
Cypher: honestly i know you don't give a damn what those people think. you're bored with the stupid ****s and bored with the car right?
evan: yeah. in a nutshell
evan: i wish the forum didnt turn to ****, but oh well
evan: thats what happens with no real authority
evan: if that makes sene

well, now that it's that far out of hand, mods want to flex that authoritative muscle and lock this crap?

If we had that, half of his posts would have been deleted. :) hahahaha
well if he's bored with his car tell him to give it to me! haha, i'll gladly take it...

well, this is the last thing I'm going to say on the matter. We finally have a member who decides to do the right thing and slip away without a "LOOK AT ME, I'M LEAVING THE SITE FOR THIS REASON AND NOBODY CAN STOP ME...SUPER PLEASE DELETE MY ACCOUNT" thread and everyone asks where he went and why he left. Just let the man leave in peace if he wants, and if he wants to return, he can and will.

Honestly, I dont understand why we are having this discussion. I have nothing against Evan. Hes actually the only person, other than myself and mom, who have driven my car. If Evan wants to come back, let him come back on his own term. We shouldnt be having a "rally" to get him back. Noone should be "catching feelings" off what people say on the internet.
But I do agree with 03Silver Bullet in one way that Evan needs to cool down with his responses to newb threads. I also find it really annoying and just overall wrong.
I find this thread kinda funny actually. Evan is leaving because of the way people think about him on here. Evan has stoppedn posting because of his negative public opinion formed through some of our more outspoken members. Kinda like how Evan bashes the newbs and they never come back. Ironic huh.

Evan is an awesome kid that knows his stuff. He is one of my closest friends off of the boards. He left for reasons, and personally, even though I voted yes, know he will not be posting here again.

I said yes to him coming back, but at the same time perhaps all he needed was some time away from this place. He is very smart when it comes to issues around here, but as stated needs to cut down on newb-bashin! I mentioned this to one other member before who was doing it and he is still around here and posts useful information on almost everything. Evan will come back one way or another, even if he was banned he could open a new account, its just a matter of him wanting to be here. So IMO (which on an internet forum we all know doesnt matter) this is and isnt a useless post, yes he will come back but now its like we have praised him or raised him on to a platform for knowing some stuff. Yes I like evan but lets just leave this issue at what it is.
I voted yes.I would like to see him come back.I never had any problems with him.

IDEA! Have evan make a poll!
My opinion... whenevr evan got on me it was usually because I asked a dumbass question. Instead of trying to change him, Train the new guys.

He told me he had "enough."
Many people here had had "enough" of him.
