tabb is resigning from (IRC)4Fun

General, Network, Services, Staff, United IRC Networks
We're very sad to announce that tabb will be retiring from IRC4Fun (and likely IRC in general).  tabb has been an IRC4Fun Administrator and sponsored many servers throughout most of IRC4Fun's lifetime.  He is a true friend, and we will miss him very much! This also means that some servers will soon be leaving as well, including (but not limited to) blackhole.IRC4Fun.net, kangaroo.IRC4Fun.net, and paradise.IRC4Fun.net. We're going to miss tabb and thank him for his many years of contributions to IRC4Fun and many other IRC networks!
