...I am leaving gupshup...

sike! :nahnah: You wish! :mocking: Although some people really want that to happen, but it’ll always remain an unfulfilled dream :bummer:

You probably knew it can’t be happening when you saw the title. Now that you’ve clicked, here’s a serious question.

When people decide to ‘leave’ gupshup, why do they open threads? Why don’t they just LEAVE? I mean by opening threads, are they hoping people will ask them to stop and they just need an excuse/reason to stay? Lack of attention? Love to make a huge deal out of nothing? or what?

Honestly, if I were to leave, I would just leave. Some people may just notice my disappearance and question where I am, but I wouldn’t announce it. I may just reply in a thread or two, but will not open a seperate thread about it. I am not trying to make fun of anyone nor am I pointing fingers at anyone, but I just want to know the exact reason why people open threads when they are about to leave? Is it that you care about your friends and don’t want them to get worried about you because of your sudden absence? But then again, there’s PM system to let them know.

Discuss.

Maybe they just want to say a few last good byes. :teary3: And there’s too many people to address.

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

Attention seekers :mad:

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

Good one,…Yaar,

If I ever decided to leave then I shall quietly leave and won’t open more than 3 threads,…Just to tell my friends and foes that I am not leaving,…How is that ? :slight_smile:

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

cuz people wanna say the reason they're leaving. its usually other people. so just to let them know.....give them the guilt trip maybe ?

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

Impulse, is that a rhetorical question :hehe:

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

I cried so much before opening the thread… thinking that you are gonna leave :crying:

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

^ Hain? :confused:

So you all think it’s to:

-say final goodbyes
-let them know what they’ve done and they’ve hurt someone’s feelings

Interesting. Keep them coming.

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

Hey Shikra,
I think when there is a thread that someone is leaving then it means,..that person is polling to see how many guppies says final goodbyes and how many beg to stop. Its just like taking attendance. LOL

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

hummm good question .. i can't speak for others so i'll tell my reasons .. when i left gupshup for 10 days halo i opened a thread too and my intention wasn't to get attention from ppl .. firstly i don't like sending pms cuz sometimes inbox is full so i have to come again to pm .. secondly i wanted some good replies, more like advices and the main thing that i wanted to flood with my friends in cafe, last flooding .. :=d

Re: …I am leaving gupshup…

No. That’s only what Impulse thinks.

You forgot to add that it’s because there’s too many people to sit there and PM, so to just let everyone know about it quick and easy, people open a thread.

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

  • final goodbyes
  • let them know what they've done and they've hurt someone's feelings
  • too many people to sit there and PM, so to just let everyone know about it quick and easy, people open a thread
  • Attention seekers
  • To find out how many friends they have and how many of them care
  • Marney sey pahley last time pharpharaana (flood one last time befor you quit)

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

to just want to say some last words and want to say sorry to those who were hurt by that person :) i guess

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

What I think seriousely is, Its good to have thread opened up CozMore people get attracted to it. everyone knows someone is leaving and also good for Gupsgup forums to get more Hits on their counter.
Since they take pride in giving out the numbers that how many people visited,,.how many hits per forum and other stuff. Its good thing .

We should give our best wishes to someone about his/her contribution to Gupshup.

That's all I can say before I goto sleep here :)

shikra baji tumhari shakal dekh kar andaza lagana muskil hai kay tum sach mai itne aqalmandi wali baatay kar saktay ho :mocking:

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

maybe they want others to stop them and beg them to stay like u said...or maybe just to let others know that Hum apse bezaar hore hai...or it could be to give a last farewell speech...there are so many reasons...

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

did you just copy my general thread?

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

Yes. Paste, too.

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

this is a copied thread

Re: ...I am leaving gupshup...

Sadzz, you look like you got bumped back some posts. Is it cause they found all those posts of yours where you contribute nothing new to the thread?
