Goodbye Horses

At the end of this month, my VIP account expires and I do not plan to renew it. I think it is time for me to move on to other things and to say goodbye to all of you.

It has been a great ride, and I honestly didn't expect to still be here 8 years after I logged on for the first time. I have met a lot of fantastic people, made friends, and even fell in love. I've had fun leading raids, trials, TFs, my SG. But now it's time to go.

I truly value the time I have spent here. I couldn't have asked for a better bunch of people to fight/cause crime with.

Take care.

This actually sounds like a impish conspiracy, lead by a warboss plan from a rangle plot, that came from a slade scheme, that Desi thought of.

My friend's list is getting even more depressing!

Actually, considering following that lead.
This game filled 2 needs for me.

First, an escape, a fantasy to pretend that I could make a difference and get away from feeling small and useless.
Well, long drawn out wars that I have minimal impact on, and signature story arcs that go "You win, no, wait just kidding, she/he's dead, really you might as well have stayed in bed" do not fill that need. So I've mostly ignored the "story" since Issue 20, doing some of the new stuff on occasion, saying "Yup, still the exact opposite of what I need.

Second need was social time with people that enjoy the same game I do and do something besides single player stuff. As mentioned, my friends list is kind of depressing.

I may or may not have been watching Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back when I made my initial post.

I may pop in from time to time, but I won't be playing like before. I also don't think I'll be able to read or post here anymore? Not sure.

I appreciate everyone's kind words and well wishes.

As premium you can still post where it says "ALL ACCESS" but I don't think anywhere else. I'm not sure about the messaging stuff

Goodbye, Arwen!

You will always hold a special place in my memory -- you lead the first Hami raid that I joined and had much patience.

I wish you all the best. Once a hero, always a hero.
