        It's his choice if he wants to move on. I'm just grateful for all the accurate translations he has done.

        Thanks for all your hard work(if you are reading this)

          I'm really upset that he has stop translating.
          To me, he was the only one who translated OP excellently; did it justice, and I've always been reading them. I just don't know what I'm gonna do now.

          But thanks Stephen for all the wonderful chapters you've done.

            Wow, talk about a big hit. I mean, whenever there was a question about a name or place, it always came to "ask Stephen!"

            Now, it's like there's this void. :mellow:

              Thanks for being the most accurate translator to the series yet! We can take it from here with your words in mind when wisdom is in question.

                Well now who is everyone going to refer to when there's a translation argument?

                Thanks for the hardwork Stephen. I always looked forward to the SBS sections (since I don't have very many of the tankouban (got mostly the LOG books).

                      Stephen always provided the best translations and i'm sad to see him stop but ten years and 445 chapters are still an amazing achievement. I'd just like to thank Stephen if he is reading for the hours and years of enjoyment.

                                  He and Labaamen are the two best translators I've ever seen. He will be sorely missed. Goodnight, sweet prince. ;;

                                      As sad as this is (Read: INCREDIBLY SAD) We have to realize that it's his choice whether or not to translate, and if he's done he's done.

                                      I for one am thankful and happy that he gave us such wonderful work for as long as he has.

                                      I do hope he doesn't take down what he's done until now though. That way, we will at least have his translations of everything SO FAR (Which is a HELL OF A LOT) to compare things to at the very least.

                                                  That's not fair, I thought The Dude died and someone hacked into his account to alert us.

                                                  Fortunately, nobody died. And I am happy about that.

                                                  But yeah, I knew of stephen's translations. All good. All good.

                                                    Yeah, because the dude is ten years old.

                                                    Anyway, it's sad to think we'll no longer have stephen's top quality translations, which were often the last word in a debate. But the Pirates Summit beckons us all someday.

                                                        I think he was contributing to arlong park back at the beginning in 2002. From your viewpoint he would have been three. Which would have been quite the neat trick.

I'll be the first to admit I haven't really read your translations before, but I knew very well of your work and considered you one of the most reliable sources in the OP community. Float on.

But thanks for all the hard work and quality over the years. It wasn't said by everyone every week like it should have been, (myself included) but we always appreciated it. You were THE go to go when something needed clearing up.
