Well folks, I've come to the conlusion that there's little to keep me here, so I hereby tender my resignation.
I may still pop in once in a while to check on the SCP, but other than that, I'll not be here.
Goodbye all, it's been a pleasant (however long it's been).


(Clearly I'll still be here for the next day or two to check on this thread)

Well... okay. Thanks for the company, you've been good to kick around. :) We'll miss you.

Bye now!

I applaud your taste, if not your chosen mode of exit. Me, I say make it a drama or make it quiet.

Because here is boring. Like I told y'all months ago. Same reason I only swing by here about a week outta every two months now. That's about enough time for a week's worth of content to have developed. About half of the Hard Light forum is basically just people emoting randomly and making dumb comments nobody would ever want to read about someone or other's posts anyway.

Honestly, if you people put ten seconds of thought into every post, people'd stick around and this'd be a place worth sticking around in. As is, the campaigns are mostly going nowhere, models have slowed because everyone's modeling solely for their "UBAR SECRET SPECHUL CAPAIUN PROJET" that's going to replace Derelict as the offhand definition of a great user project, and the SCP is off in its own little world, getting stuff done but mostly fixating on little things that specific campaigns want rather than the grand sweeping stuff that'd really be of interest to anybody. There's larger things going on, sure, but they're not nearly enough to stick around for most of the time, and they progress slower'n a turtle with no legs. Add that to everyone treating the forums like their personal ****ing blog and the fact that evidence shows that basically nobody here lives a life interesting enough to make for good bloggy entertainment, with the possible exception of an0n who makes half of that up anyway and me whose life, while it involves hitting things and screaming, gets pretty repetitive and isn't for public consumption, and you've got not a lot to stick around for.

Wow, and it only took....what?; 10 months?; to sink in.

And in regards to Stryke's comments, I tend to agree.

I used to read every thread, make a post in them all, check every forum, chat and/or flame everyone. Now all I do is scour the threads in here and Art and check out anything with an interesting thread title.

But I'm a lifer. I've said it before and I'll say it again; I'll be here even after they turn out the lights.
