Can you hold back your breadth...?

Waiting for something which you know is not coming soon.... Many people here say they will not start a discussion in case they are not sure when the time will be available for them to comment back on responses. Me too. But sometimes it's so difficult to announce your absence!
Back to the topic... Will you answer a discussion/post knowing that the comment is not coming back very soon. That the poster is away now for, say, two or more weeks? And does it make any change if the poster is normal/good friend of yours or a completely new person? Will you care to reply?
The case being here is I'm planning to take an indeterminate break from here, and as it seems appropriate now to tell, I'll come later. So, will you please keep responding to whatever you see of me without any reservation! For my part, I'll try to hold back longer enough so you people can get entry in book of records for longest hold back!
Sorry for poor choice of interest. I've got so many conflicting interests now... so I ended up here! Also ignore any type mistake, this keyboard is killing me ;(

You are leaving us again?
If the topic is something I can relate to and if it is started by a friend that I am in contact with often then it makes no difference how long I have to wait for a comment back fromthem. I know who will comment back eventually and who will never comment back at all
There is one Lotter who joined last year, was a huge success, and then landed a job which entailed him leaving very suddenly three days after he was offered the job. He was very sad to leave us and will be away for almost a year. He left a message for us in his profile. I go often to his started discussions, comment on them, rate the posts that I could't rate at the time and await his return. He will be back eventually and I keep his place warm.
I'll do the same for you too. Good luck with whatever is keeping you away again. You will be missed by those who know you - and possibly by those who don't.
Take care!

That is all you have to say after your break?

I don't like to accept it on public front()... but you're special. Couldn't answer you in a hurry... I need time
Don't worry, that's a starter only

dear hf,
your name is too long. hope it is ok that i call you by your first letters on both names. or would you rather that i call tata as seen here lately?
there is nothing wrong with responding to a discussion as soon as you see it and even if you know it will not be commented on for a while. it's no big issue for me.
have a nice day.

As far as I am concerned, I think it will be OK for me to hold back my breadth in my body. When some one wlse really hit the bottom of my heart, I think I will be so angry with him a lot ,no matter who he is, I will just criticize on him. I think at that time I just can not hold back your breadth.

If your keyboard is killing you you should fight back! However, being killed by a keyboard is valid reason to take a break for a while. I hope you manage to entangle yourself from it in due time to come back, getting stuck between the keys really isn't very funny :-)

It succeded in killing me. I'm most disheartened right now :(
Anyway, trying your hands on mobile keyboard is not so bad too! Let's see how far I can go before this all ends...

If something interests me, I will answer it. Even if I know you are gone. I have even answered really old discussions of people that I know have left the lot completely. Post away as you will.

Hmmm I'm not sure though that I'll respond to someone who has left permanently though...
