About Time I Took Off, I Think!

I would have put a better song up, but I preferred one that'd get stuck in your head for a few days. Also, because I like Eurythmics.

 

I promised myself I'd never do one of these if I left, but I've left before and I couldn't stick to it. Maybe this'll be like a contract to myself, and it'll appeal to my over-inflated sense blergleblrghdrrrdbbbrrxxsshhwiwowkpokdq3 Honestly, I have no clue how I'm supposed to write this leaving post. Most I see tend to be some kind of soap-box to vent issues with the server, or as some kind of credits-reel for a players friends. Those whom I adore, you already know I adore you. If you don't, I have likely been doing something terribly wrong. 

 

You know, if you read this, you're experiencing my thoughts as I try to write more things, but can't. "It feels too short!" I say to myself as my fingers skitter across the keys. I look towards my lamp. There is a dreadful night-bug flittering around it. You know those night-bugs? They're those really fragile and thin insects attracted to light around midnight. They land on you all the time and make you itchy if you have a laptop in the dark--anyone get what I'm talking about? I hate those things. Ugly, nasty little bugs. I think it might actually be more satisfying if they were biting insects--at least it would give me the motivation to kill them. But no, just float about and land all over me, why don't you? At least I won't have muck on my hands, right? Yeah.

 

Anyway, leaving post. Explanations are in order I would suppose. No personal distaste for the server really, it's always been fine for me. This latest OOC leak business has just been so disheartening. I've never been sincerely called 'disgusting,' and other such things before. If I get down to the knitty-gritty of the situation, I just didn't like getting lumped into a generalised "high elf posse" that was trying to independantize the elves via OOC means. I feel what reputation I have is ruined, when all I wanted to do was to get everyone to be nicer to one-another. I guess I'm just a wimp that way, I'm fairly sure someone will see it as that. There are probably other reasons too, but this is the one that's really turned me off roleplaying.

 

In the usual soap-box leaving post, people will make suggestions about how to fix the server, or something. So, here's ol' Mithradites advice for the server to fix everything and make the world a better place for the happy-go-lucky RPers of here, then, and every-now!

Absolutely nothing.

 

I have no clue how to fix the servers problems, and neither do you. It's why I almost never gave my opinion in those feedback threads. They're also always dreadfully obnoxious. See? Soapbox!! NOW it's a leaving-post! 

 

As a final gesture of my love for you all (and as a 'sorry' to all the people I have upset/insulted/annoyed over the years), I present you with this poem I have brain-crafted for you from the innermost, quivering crevices of my sanguine, sassy soul. 

 

Have you ever seen a donkey dance?

Its hair stands fuzzy and strange.

Have you ever seen a donkey smile,

As it trots about the range?

 

Does a donkey have some secret wisdom,

to which we are not savvy?

How does it go through all its life,

without knowing how to be happy?

 

Donkeys are not born to think,

they eat, they breed, they poo.

After all, a donkey's just an ass,

so it has something in common with you!

 

Thanks for having me, everyone! Now, if it's quite all right with you lot, I'm going to slink back out the broken screen door I crawled through.

 

Toodle-pip! Be nice!

Are you really Totalbiscuit?

[Kalehart 1096]

In all my interactions with you (limited as they may have been), you've always been an exceptionally cool guy. It's a shame to see you leave, especially over nonsense like this. You've always appeared to me to be one of the most genuinely nice people on the server, and I for one don't doubt for a moment the integrity of your intentions with all those shenanigans.

 

Anyway, I wish you the best of luck in your endevours on the other side of that ripped screen door. Hopefully you can return sometime, yeah?

Rip, I always liked you. Nice poem, enjoy lofe, mith!

You will be remembered.

Be nice!

 

That would do just fine, actually.

Mithradites. You are the most hilarious high elf player I've ever met.

[ski_king3 0]

Peace dude, best of luck in the real world.

[Your Favorite Impure 736]

Never really had the chance to interact with you too much, and its a shame I won't have the chance to do so more in the future. Ta, and good luck in your endeavours!

 

...I feel like this gif is a fitting send off...

You never fail to make me smirk when you post.

 

Take care. We never spoke, but you seem of a good sort.

[Dakirennis 959]

I feel what reputation I have is ruined.

It's always sad when server members leave. Best of luck in all that you do!
