Are you getting rid of your refrigerator too?

It’s okay to keep your record player though.

There are several different styles from which to choose in writing a good opus. You can, of course, mix and match, but generally brevity gets more points than logorrhea. Although there have been several pretty good wall-o-text opera, now that I think about it.

Accusatory - you're leaving and it's somebody else's fault. This usually has to do with a particularly salty thread or two in which someone has had such poor taste or intellectual deficiency as to disagree with you. The psychological locution for this is "Butt-hurt".

Nostalgic - here you broadcast your tenure here in what is, technically, an incorporeal "place" and your regret that it isn't what it used to be back in the day when Deb was cutting A+Bert's throat in print or Don Morgan was issuing Ash Alerts. It helps to insist that you joined before packet switching was invented and have been a FReeper since Abraham Lincoln first posted to the Internet, and that your present login is your fourth one. Do not mention that means you've been zotted three times for idiocy.

Partisan passion: there have been epic Mass Extinctions over such luminaries as Rudy Giuliani, Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, and Ted Cruz. It may hurt to pretend that you're a mortally offended Liz Cheney fan but hey, you're not sticking around anyway, so who cares? Strangely, no one has yet been zotted for being a Jeb Bush fan.

Lunatic - really, any truly interesting opus has to contain elements from this category. All caps are encouraged, neologisms such as "Looser" may be scattered about, and true, unhinged exhortations such as "I HATE YOU GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL" (actual text) to conclude will confirm your place in the pantheon of truly epic FR departures. Live it up a little, we'll all pretend that you won't be logging in under a new name a week hence.

Be creative. Be that FReeper who evokes the highest praise, "Nothing in his life became him, like the leaving it." (That was William Shakespeare, who used to post here under the login "Toiletman").

Proof of your recent sex-change operation is essential to a smooth departure from FR...

Our deep grief at your leaving will affect all of our FR lives...

"...flame wars have gone WAY up which is very uncharacteristic of FR...."

Hogwash... You definitely were not around in the late 1990s into 2000, 2001, & 2002...

You might be better off finding a site wherein Lindsey Graham would be comfortable, and go there for comfort and happiness...
Lots of peace, flowers, dancing, singing, and only voicing the company line...

The usual way is to write a humiliating "farewell opus" and let the moderators do the rest.

That is hilarious.

I’ll keep that in my back pocket as I’m sure I’ll need a flaming exit.

Yeah for personal reasons I had to abandon Facebook. My opinions were going to probably land my wife, who is a teacher, in hot water, and lose her her job.. and maybe even mine. Which is why, I am sure like many of us, I use a pseudonym. I have already been targeted a decade ago for being such an idiot and revealing my real name. Here I am fine though and would never want to leave.

you can’t leave in the middle of a war; it’s just not done! Pick another month.

The problem is all inside your head
She said to me
The answer is easy if you
Take it logically
I’d like to help you in your struggle
To be free
There must be fifty ways
To leave Free Republic

She said it’s really not my habit
To intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning
Won’t be lost or misconstrued
But I’ll repeat myself
At the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways
To leave Free Republic
Fifty ways to leave Free Republic

You Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don’t need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Write a good opus, Gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just don’t hit the keys, Lee
And get yourself free

Why not just...oh I don’t know...walk away and stop coming here?

Eggsactly! It’s not like he will be charged rent for leaving an account open.

Sounds more likely it’s one of those “please beg me to stay” things
