To all my DM's, I'm sorry...

[Velenne]

Lately I've been a discredit and a burden to your games, and for that and my concurrent lack of posting, I sincerely apologize. For a variety of reasons, I've come to look at my daily Play-by-Post gaming as more of a burden than a joy, and I fear it's taking some of the joy from my weekend tabletop games to boot.

In short, it's just gotten to be too much. So to Zhure, Uriel, Isida Kep'Tukari, Paxus Asclepius, and Radiant, thanks for all the enjoyable times and the creative spark! I'll try to tie up the loose ends for each of my characters in your games and subsequently bid you all adieu.

Well Nate, I think if you've gone this far to post this publicly that it's probably to late to convince you other wise but I guess I'm going to give it a try anyway...

I feel your pain, theirs not a thing you said in the above that I haven't felt at least once but its the ways of life. Some days I love my job and feel like I'm doing service to all those I care about but their are also days where I find myself unhappy, very depressed and that I'm not doing any service that is of value. Somedays I like my coworkers but somedays I don't, hell most day I love the fact that I'm married and other days I see nothing but the negatives.

Now all that said, I'm proud of what I do, I'm proud that I'm married and especially pound of the woman I am married too. My coworkers at work are reasonable people who are just like you and me and everyone else on this board. We all get tried of what can be considered the day-to-day grind but I promise you PbP gaming isn't one of those grinds.

Anyhow I said my spill... If I were you I would give it some time before you end your games and participation. I honestly would respond to anyone who said they where going to quit with a post like this but you are a special case as your are a hell of a role-player and I honestly will miss you in the games where share.

Anyhow, go with my blessing there are no hard feelings and please fill free to comeback when you feel the time is right.

Thanks for the memories,
Adam

I think I should say something smart now but as usualy it evades me. Sad to see you go but if it ain't fun any longer I'd be the first to tell you to leave it be. There is enough stuff that you don't like to do even if you don't choke your freetime with it.

Best of luck.

Well, I'll be sad to see you go but I certainly understand how gaming can at times be burdensome. There are moments when this time-consuming hobby can be an effort to continue. Sometimes taking a sabbatical is the best response.

If you later decide you'd like to join back up, just post in the OOC thread or send me private email and you'll be welcome back with open arms.

yeah, what he said

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Indeed. Don't worry Velenne, if it's not working for you, it's not working for you. But if you decide to come back, Vasorn and For the Greater Good are always open to you.

Velenne,

Say it isn't so! You've already got the tough part done (the character building ). The rest should be enjoyment . . . if it isn't, then that's a good reason to stop.

I'll miss your insightful and interesting posts and characterizations. Take care of yourself!
