Hey Guys,
This is a forum for everyone who believe that after 2 years off hard work the site owner Erik needs to have a Holiday! Some piece and quite with his family. :) I am sure you have all been in a position where you have felt worn out. I am sure Erik undoubtedly feels this way, and is long overdue for a relaxing holiday. :)
So if you think Erik needs a holiday you should give suggestions. :)
I think he should take his family to like Disney land, or Hawaii. or something.

That's creepy - leave the guy's personal life alone
Um how so? Is it creepy to care about another persons well being hmm. Well if it is call me a creep. :)

what makes you think erik hasn't had a holiday?
um cause he has mentioned several times that he is over stressed in many forums. Thus in need of a holiday. :)

I hear cyber space is nice this time of year.
And I'm sure Erik can handle planning his own vacations.

oz, i have to agree with many here, i am sure the site owner handles his own life well :D

I suggest Canton, OH.
Oh, Erik, sorry about the Superbowl loss. Also, I was disappointed not to have seen a chess.com ad during the first quarter.

I think if he wants a holiday he can go himself.

rrrttt...that is sooo cute. Is that a fishy?
Regarding topic: I'm often amused when people don't comprehend the limits of personal space and often think they are "doing good" by invading someone's personal business.
It's people like these who don't understand that just because we share a bit about ourselves, it doesn't mean they are invited into the home to take part in all events. It's my belief that when you encounter such people, you must give them strict boundaries. Extreme case: What About Bob?
i'll tell you one person who doesn't need a holiday--AfafBourdi.
last year she was on vacation for like 2 months while we were playing games. needless to say she held up the tournaments we were in.
you should eat an orange, AfafBouardi.
note:this is sarcasm showing that we should mind our own business.
and those weren't even the months I actually went on holiday. haha. Ok, sorry sorry.
mprhchess. How about a peach? Let's discuss before I decide which to eat...should I consult the OP? He might have an opinion also.
