Yep, it is true. The old bastard is retiring
Recently I was ill for a couple of weeks and during that time I discovered the joys of that mythical beast they call 'real life'. After playing Jumpgate and DAoC for 4.5 years pretty much non-stop and now taking a break from playing made me realise all the things I had been missing out on. When I think of the hours /played I have over those 4.5 years it scares the hell out of me, the break kind of shocked me back into reality and made me realise that I wasn't enjoying playing anymore so why should I dedicate a large portion of my freetime to play something that is no longer fun.
So, here we are. My farewell speech, being a heartless old bugger I will try not to cry I have enjoyed this game alot during the last few years, much more than that though I have enjoyed the company and I have met some people I am proud to call friends. I have had my fair share of arguements (ok more than my fair share ) but when I look back now I realise that it was all pointless, I don't wish anyone ill and I have no bad feeling towards anyone. At the end of the day it is just a game, I lost sight of that at times and I can only apologise to anyone I upset or offended. We all say things we don't mean and this old fart is no exception.
Anyway, my accounts have a little while to run so you might see this good looking Avalonian love-god around from time-to-time over the next month. It may be me playing or my brother, feel free to spam me a /wave or two. Hell you can even try /sending me some c6'lovin.
Before I go I just want to say that is has been a pleasure to play on this server, even during the bad times. I want to wish every single one of you all the very best both in-game and in real life. Live long and prosper, go forth and multiply like rabbits!
Special thanks to my former guilds and all thier members ;
Dark Legion
The Dragon Senate
Lords of England
The Usual Suspects
and last but certainly not least..... The Last Watch for making me enjoy the game again
.... oh and get my relics back ya buggers, the living room seems so empty without them!
