OK I will not beat around the bush but it is time for Mr Roo to move on. I will continue to make my models but I will not be posting on this or any other model site again. Those that visit me will be able to see my stuff and I will email pics to a few friends.

Staff Jim will appoint a new host to Truckorama shortly and I wish it and all the members here at armorama the best for now and into the future.

I leave my gallery of truck photos here for all who wish to use it.

So to all the friends I have here at armorama please feel free to keep in touch by email and by MSN messenger if you see me on air.

I will now log off and go sniff some more glue

Well I respect your right to privacy and not to give reason as to why you are making such a drastic decision, but I must admit my curiosity. At any rate, I wish you well in your endeavors and hope all works out for you.

Regards,
Steve

I hope it's not something bad. Seems so sudden for those of us out of the know especially since you have a campaign near and dear to you currently running . Good luck down under

It's such a shame that you are leaving us Cliff... I too hope it isn't something bad or health related, and I hope it is only temporary... Good luck, we won't forget you!!!

The reasons for your decision are for you and you alone - I won't attempt to pry. I'll just say that I'll miss you around here - FRIEND.

PS:If you ever need anything - just drop me an email, I think you have my address.

I've enjoyed your wit, expertese, and your models.
It's sad to see an important member of the family move on.
I wash you all the best Cliff. If you ever decide to return you will be welcomed.

I personally wish you would reconsider leaving home Cliff, we all love and care about you. Email me your MSN or Yahoo name..... Or I'll have to bribe the young Jedi to get it.

I've not had much contact with you Cliff. Not on a one-to-one business, but I read some time ago of your illness and watched your posts with interest. And may I add, grow in stature amongst this fledgling community. All platitudes aside, you have done a sterling job and will be sorely missed. I mean that sincerely and hope that whatever your future holds, I hope we will one day see you here again. Take care Cliff. Godspeed on your journey.

Dear Cliff "Mr Roo" I am sadden by your sudden departure from Armorama as Staff member, member and mostly to many a good friend. Many of your postings and threads not only where helpful but correct and you also took the time to put up many image's as well. I have no doubt that many members where inspired by this. Having over 4300 pictures in your gallery and another 2600 + posts, It's going to take a big foot to fill in your shoes. So Cliff..my hats of to you and i'll raise a toast cheers mate.Good luck..... So long.... and be good.

Cliff

I really hope you'll stop and reconsider this. You have got too many friends on Armorama who think the World of you to let things end this way.

I will respect your decision, but I sincerely wish you'd change your mind...

You'll always have my best wishes

?????? What is this all about? I'd flabbergasted. Why? One can not begin to measure the contribution to this site that you have made. Your knowledge, wisdom, administrative use, and by far your personality and humor that you brought to this site helped define so much of the family community that Armorama has. Though just one humbled member in over 6,000 you ]have led by example the adage that one can make a difference! Best of luck.

Always

Wow, what a blow to not only Armorama but to the internet based modelling community. Your wealth of knowledge will be missed, but your friendship will be most sorely missed.

Your reasons are your own, and you have undoubtably given this much thought. I will not say goodbye, but rather "see you later".
