View Full Version : All Good Things...

Well, folks... time to say goodbye.


As of this writing I have four active days left on my DDO subscription, and then I will be exiting stage-left (never did like stage-right... too preachy). But, before I go I just wanted to say a few things.


It has been my absolute pleasure and privilege to have spent time with you guys. To all my friends, guildmates, fellow forum-users, PUG members, and server dwellers - I'm gonna miss each and every one of you. Even those who I may have irritated or been irritated by - I'll miss you. See, we all make up one of the coolest and nicest communities I've ever been a part of. There have been some rough spots in the road, sure, but the people who play this game have never failed to amaze me at how top-notch they are. It is each and every one of you who have kept me coming back to this game when I'd have otherwise walked away.

Sadly, the time has come when I need to walk away...

I won't dwell on why I feel the need to unsubscribe, for any who really feel the need to know why, the answers are not hard to find. Me, I'd rather focus on the good things - laugh instead of lament. When the time comes that it's hard keep a smile - then it's time to pack it in.

I'm not giving away my gear - and I'm not deleting my characters. I'll be completely honest, I hope to come back one day. I'll be paying attention to what is going on in DDO, and if things improve then I will be back. But, it that may not be for a while.

I've had a really great time trying to make y'all laugh, or trying to prove a point. Even the arguments were fun. This has been like a family to me, the population of Thelanis... and moving out is hard to do. Took me a long time to reach this decision, but I gotta head out on my own.



I hope each of you stays well and stays happy. It's been a pleasure. :)

Mem,

The few times I have run with you, and completed trades with you over the past few years have been an absolute pleasure. I hope to see you back, take care!

****, sorry to see you go mem, never grouped with you alot even on xoriat. Still the few times was always humorous and quit fun. The forums will definately be more quiet and lonely feeling. Anyway dude, I hope you find another game that brings you as much happiness as this did three years ago.

It has been an Honor sir, to share these forums with you.
And I am not alone when I say in all honesty

You shall be missed.

Best of luck in all you do,
and I hope that I may again one
have the priviledge of sharing the field of Battle with you.

Take it easy Memnir.

Well Mem, as someone who's teamed with you since the good old days on Xoriat and been in 2 guilds with you now, I may know you better than some, but my perception is very similar.

You are a **** fine person and player and a credit to ddo and this little world we all live on.

My game playing time has dropped to a very small percentage of what it once was, I may not be far behind ya.

I'm down from about 25 hours a week, to about 5.

The only reason I played a bit more over this past week is because my RL bro and his wife decided to see if DDO was something that might hold their interest.

So far the verdict is meh. My bro got bored within a week and his wife is playing here and there.

DDO is a great game and had so much potential, but the HORRORAWFUL lag, the lack of a big world to explore and delays on content and nerfs and changes have made it wane in the eyes of many.

In the end, summer is here and that means less game playing for me anyways, so heres hoping Mod 9 will keep us interested for a while (prolly not) and will be enough to get us through the fewer hours we will play till the fall and maybe by then the game will have some more improvements(?) or there will be another game out there that will grab us.

Keep your access alive at the Legion web site and keep in touch.

Hopefully I will find a reason to keep playing and you will find one to come back into the game and our paths will once again cross on the field of battle... and always, as comrades.

A Real Shame to see you go Mem, but I understand.

Hope to see you around these parts again someday.

I have grouped with you here and there, and we have had some good discussions/arguments here on the forums, it is a sad day to see a person of your caliber leaving. I hope you return soon to a bigger, better, more robust DDO.

Best of luck to you and yours.

you will be missed sir, it was always a pleasure.


I don't know how far away I am from being where you are, but all I know is I am slowly moving toward that place instead of away from it

You had a unique way of talking to people with humor and pictures , you are imho the most respected forumnite from thelanis because of your objectivity your humour and your positive attitude .

Even though i havent known you a lot in game i wish i would have .I thank you for all the chuckles and smiles you have given me, when i read your posts or replies and can i tell you some days it was the only funny thing of the day .

I hope you come back, but i totally understand where you come from i will be taking a break too , and mostly for a lot of similar reasons im sure .Its a big loss for the community if someone deserved a forum title its you ( i know you dont care about that but if there was a vote on thelanis no one would come to 50 % of your votes im sure ).

Sincerely man thanks for everything i wish you good luck on whatever you do you deserve it .

Well, folks... time to say goodbye.




Mem,

I know that I said I wouldn't post here again until summer, but for you, I have no trouble reconsidering. Be well, my friend, and best wishes wherever your journeys take you. I hope we will cross paths again.

Mems leaving. I blame Legion.

hehe, but the blame squarely lands with Turbine. Mem, I will miss you for sure and agree with Gax. If ever there was someone worthy of a forum title it is you! Hopefully you will return, if this company ever gets their act together. I'll keep a candle burning for you. Another good soul gone from the game. ~cues music (http://www.draculaman.com/audio/Blind%20Melon%20-%20Mouthful%20Of%20Cavities.mp3)~

You will be missed my friend - pls stay in touch. Several of us have found an extended break from DDO is a good thing from time to time. Speak with you soon & best wishes for a wonderful spring/summer.

Be safe.

I'd always hoped to group with you someday when I sucked less than I do now.

Your posts have been insightful, educational, and humorous. Here's hoping something draws you back in.

Until then, I hope life treats you great!

Time's up - time to go. :)
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the kind words and great times. I've got nothing but good memories to look back on - and lots of friends to come home to if I do wander back through the front door again one of these days.

It's been my pleasure, folks.
