Aussie's decided to retire from modding
Jan 27th, 2013 at 12:47pm
 
Nothing wrong he's just got other things to do with his time these days Thumbs Up

I don't think anyone else on this forum has ever done as much to promote slinging worldwide as Aussie. And I still consider the aussie pouch to be the definitive modern sling pouch. It's certainly in use in more countries and in larger numbers than any other sling pouch in history.

Many many thanks for your service to the forum and to slinging in general.  

We hope to still see you around here and you still have access to the mod's clubhouse.

All the best and good luck and good health in your 'retirement'

Massi - WTF? It's called a sling. You use it to throw rocks farther and faster than you could otherwise. That's all.

HUZZAH for Aussie!  Enjoy your retirement...  I've learned a lot from you even in the short time I've been a part of this community..



P.S. :  Did you get a watch?  Or a gold plated sling?

No watch. Perhaps I'll just spray paint one of my Aussie pouches  Wink

Glad to be of service.

lol - I suppose next you'll suggest we get paid whistle

All ex-mods keep their access to the secret mod lair (even updates to the map that prevents the crocodiles eating you).
What more could you want than the ability to nag current mods without having any of the responsibility.  Wink

Perhaps a chain-maille sling made from gold plated titanium!
