Okay.

I decided this a few hours ago. I'm not sure what i'm going to do. I'll be taking a good few weeks leave and you'll hear from me whether or not i'm deciding to give it up or to come back. Along with this, it takes me a minimum three days to two weeks to make one good post, and that just isn't up to standard. I'm sorry to the people who I didn't get to finish roleplaying with. I really am.

It's more a time to get my priorities straight; for those of you who are Australian here, I play a sport called AFL which is taking over my life. I play for a state team, weekend team, overage team, senior team, and am doing an Academy for the Sydney Swans.

Sadly, the bottling of my emotions has just flared up again. My parents are.. fighting, I guess you could say. My life was falling apart. Now, it has fallen apart. For the next few days though, I will pop in here and there just to see how it's going.

There are, though, a few people i'd like to say goodbye in particular too, in case I do leave;

• Adam.

Adam. I don't honestly know what I can say. You were there for me when nobody else was, on multiple occasions. And I know I said I was there to help you with anything, but I guess, in the end, I was the one who needed help from you the most. I got it on multiple occasions, also. You were honestly a brother to me and you were one person I never, never wanted to leave. I'll miss you, you were a major factor in my life and how I ended up living with it.

• Josh/Pendo

I'm not sure you'll read this but you were just an absolute legend. We didn't really talk much but you were like a brother to me from the moment we started talking. I never wanted to lose contact with you, but I guess nothing's forever. It was good knowing you buddy. It really was.

• Zane.

Too many good years have gone past knowing you. I knew you for a good 5 years and it was a blast. You're a phenominal roleplayer, you always have been. Don't change anything, you're a phenominal person with a perfect attitude. I couldn't miss you anymore than I will when I do leave at the end of today.

• Lauren.

Lady Liberty, you're a perfect person. Everything is just spot on about you, and I could never even dream of the time I was going to do this to you. I wish you, of all people, the best of luck because you were always, always, a special friend to me. The memories we shared were unlike other peoples and because of that, i'll never forget you. You have grown and blossomed into a phenominal roleplayer. No, not just a phenominal roleplayer, a phenominal girl. I couldn't have been luckier to know you and I hope you don't forget your little Aussie Pufferfish.

• Kija

My little gay man, you're etched into my heart and brain, seriously. We've known each other a lifetime and have a million of memories, I never wanted to leave you. If I decide i'm not coming back, you can have my character. I want you of all people to have something that I put a lot of heart in. I love you man. No homo intended. I could never forget, just .. don't forget me okay?

I won't forget,
The way you made me feel,
I will regret,
Running away from here,
So I say goodbye again,
So I say goodbye again

I will miss you all. I love you all and in case I really don't come back, never forget me. If I do come back, it will be because I have figured that roleplaying is too big to forget and too big a part of my life to give up. In which case, I WILL roleplay more actively.

I just ask not to archive my character, as a last request.

' You were brothers,
Hand in hand.
We were family,
Friend in friend.
Don't ever forget me,
This isn't the end.
Now I say goodbye,
Again. '

- Josh/Mino.
