This sounds like a polite divorce to me.

:lol: More like an amicable trial separation. It always is with Illa... I always return, rejuvenated, full of hope, and ready to make things work this time.

Going home to Finland for a couple of weeks on the 18th to spend Christmas with family. Probably won't be able to play until January.

If I don't make another post before then:

Responding badly to some new meds. Will try to be there on time for certain quests but otherwise I'm dead for the next few days.

Coming back over the summer was probably a mistake, so I am going back into previously scheduled retirement, maybe some of the pointless drama will be over now

I'm sure some of you have seen my topic "IRL and lack of presence in game world" so this post was bound to be made. I haven't decided on the IG reason for S'rrt's low activity yet. I just don't know about a lot of this, you guys, but I'm trying my best.

Block of text for the specially interested, TL;DR summary at the bottom.

Related to the current discussion going on in the general forums, and maybe a bit overdue but I first now seeing peoples viewpoints realized a need for this.
Right now I'm not of the physical or mental(due to my long endured sickness I have no motivation to exert myself right now, despite having recovered to a degree physically.) state to play a faction politician like Annabeth.
I will do my best as I have to do a monthly event, and attend anything I deem important (Mas, high court) for such a character not to miss.

As I do not know for how long I will remain like this before I recover fully, I would have my character step down from her position were there suitable candidates. However with the low population in Cadomyr, the queen GM has not even been able to find a suitable third noble (Like the plan was for there to be). So I figure one semi-AFK faction lead character is better than just one fully operational one in total. Think of it as having 1.5 player leaders in Cadomyr for the now I guess? Although with my absence I will also be out of the loop for the most part, so Ssar'ney and the queen will obviously have the heavy say in things despite Annabeths position.
Just to be safe though, I had Annabeth announce two people of her house that can act in her stead.

I will still answer to PMs. And otherwise I just pray Ssar'ney keeps up the good work in keeping Cadomyr active as a noble on his own (Your effort is not ignored by me just because my character hates your characters guts, Q-wert! :D)
And maybe Cadomyr will soon be populated enough that another long term player that the queen GM deems suitable for the third noble role comes along?

Either way, I will be back and recovered sooner or later. Should the situation change appropriately before then and two new candidates for enoblement in Cadomyr come along, I will of course have my character step down from her role. (Though it would be a shame to waste the graphics of the desert fox banner, so I hope whomever one day replaces Anna when that time comes ends up taking over her house instead of making a new one :P )

Feel free to PM me if anyone has any inquiries about my semi absence from the game that I did not answer here, or any confusion about what I wrote here as while I pride myself in my English, it is not my first language so communication errors happen. I also assume Silverwing agrees with my viewpoint here, and I do intend to meet at least the in game requirement of the monthly event that was announced a while back, but if he would prefer to just have one faction lead character.. Well.

TL;DR:
Gonna be away until I feel better and motivated. Anna can still be reached by PM or on court day.

Too early to say for sure but from the looks of it I am getting better.
May just be having a few good days though.
If I suddenly go inactive, see the above downtime message I guess?

This is my farewell. I won't go into depths about why I'm leaving the game, and hell, too few of you would even care.
To those of you who do care, you know who you are, and I will miss you despite my decision to leave.
And no Rakust, this is not a "bye Galim" I'm afraid. My characters and I really are leaving. http://i.imgur.com/sqZA8dX.jpg
Though yes, you are one of the people I will miss.

Either way.
The player of: Annabeth, Arya Isilra, Kira Lathai, Rievira and Ka'siik signing off for good.

I hope anyone who reads this can have as many years of fun with this game as I've had these past eight years.
Farewell.

Sucks for the game I guess.

Your chars sure were a benefit for the game.

Have been sick for quite some time now. Therefore my recent absence. I hope that I'll be better soon, though.

Working from home on the weekends to offset the 12+ extra hours I'm working at the second job, and therefore need to make up at the full time job for a couple weeks. When I do have the time, I don't have the energy to get IG. Things might calm down next month.

Too busy with work etc to log in. I don't have a timescale of when I'll be back, but maybe if something that interests me happens I'll pop on.

Until the abuse and nonsensical crap dies down, I'm taking a break.
