Good bye and good luck

Everyone,

 

I want to give a sincere, heartfelt thanks for an excellent couple of months on this forum. Nearly all of you have proved to be wise beyond your years and good companions, even if it was over the ether of the internet. I came to track the progress of MEMod, but stayed for the enlightened (mostly) companionship.

 

I also want to apologize for loosing my temper with MB yesterday. MB, I said you had failed me, but it was I who failed myself by allowing your remarks to get to me as they did and I am sincerely sorry for that. Few things really get to me, but questioning my very integrity without cause is one of them. Although that event was the catalyst for my decision to leave this forum, it is not the only reason why, and I've though about this seriously since yesterday evening. I am slow to loose control, but when I do, I do it in spades. My blood pressure skyrocketed and I was trembling. And high blood pressure is not something that is good for me in the least (I have a RL heart condition). So I have decided to do with this forum that I do to all things that raise my blood pressure: let it alone. For me, it really is the healthiest thing I can do.

 

Daerk, Suz, and all the rest, I wish you the best of luck and godspeed on the creation of the MEMod and the MEGame. I know that you have intentionally kept quiet about some of the aspects of the game to prevent unrealistic expectations, but I think it will turn out at least as well as I hope. When you get to the point of releasing it or the betas keep in mind that I can be another sever for you and I would be more than honored to host a download site for you for free, if you need another.

 

Dark One, this is an excellent site and forum, and I do not want my leaving to be considered a failing on your part at all. As I said, I am the one who lost control, and that is not something I do easily, nor do I enjoy it. But it happens none the less.

 

Peregrine, I may disagree with you about many issues, but I do have the greatest respect for you. The fact you rule the boards with an iron fist is reassuring to me that there are still in this world others like myself who staunchly stand behind their beliefs. May the Hell Bird soar ever higher and his feathers never thin.

 

I will still look in from time to time to check the progress of MEMod, but I have told myself to limit it to that and that alone. From now on, one of the "Guests" you see may be me.

 

Well, here it is. Here's to better health.

 

Thank you, everyone

Well... make sure to leave a message every now and then! And good luck with your health! You can safely make a post once in a while, where there are no visible flamewars on the horizon... these forums can get crazy, but they are usually an agreeable place :)

 

Hope to see you again soon, and not as a guest! If all the people with good sense (and who can spell) on these forums would leave, what would happen? :P

You don't have to be a guest, you can check the "don't add me to the active users" box.

 

You will be missed.

Shame to loose you Vandorssen, but health comes first ^^

 

The many melodramas of these forums can get to people, and if they start to, it's best to leave methinks :P

 

See you around I hope ;)

It is really a shame, vandorssen, that you, one of the voices of reason, do leave. I truly looked forwards to more discussions and I did enjoy the ones we had. For you the sentence "Cogito ergo sum" does apply. We need more people who are reasonable, there are too few of them. The people who listen to reason are growing fewer and fewer, as I have sadly noticed.

 

This is why I think in order to honor your passing we will have to try to be more reasonable ourselves and stop all those senseless flamewars.

 

May your days be blessed with wisdom and reason until the day you pass from this world!
