From: Rhaorth Antonelli just read the blog entry on the egg decorating thing... looks interesting but no where near as fun as working with the real thing hehe but even that doesn't make me want to log in and do it  I may be talking out of turn but in reading your posts over the past months what I intuit is someone dedicated to service/pleasing others, at their core...as well as a highly creative individual. But both need appreciation/respect/gratitude in order to not wither eventually. Find something or somewhere which will be a wellspring for you again...Maybe direct giving to those in dire need. (i.e. charity) There are so many these days... |

From: Rhaorth Antonelli I even find myself slipping away from the forums sure I still post and reply etc, but my heart is not in it like it used to be I see so much hate in these forums it saddens me It is probably selfish of me but I really don't want you to leave the forums for very long - you start an amazing number of really interesting threads. I think that the burn out is part of a cycle we all go through. We experience it in RL too...usually means you need to listen to a voice that is trying to get your attention about something you want to change or do. At least for me. Of course you have to make sure not to listen to some of the voices in your head...

clarissa you are not talking out of turn, you sort of hit the nail on the head kinda...
maybe I have hit the burn out stage, not sure heh
Dnali aww shucks, thanks
If I ever leave the forums, it will not be with a big announcement, I just simply leave.
That is how I have always been.
I did once post a thread here about how I have been feeling like leaving, things getting to me etc, and it was received with mixed reactions, some felt the way I did, and understood, and some were saying don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Well, that thread was not a ploy to see how many wanted me to stay (which is what some thought), it was to see if I was alone in feeling the way I do. Much like how this thread has opened my eyes to the fact I am not alone.
Anywho.. as I said, if/when the times comes that I move on and leave SL behind, I will just slip away into the shadows of the night.
(I remember one game I used to play, was admin on, even added new content etc, well when the time came to move on, the only person I told was the game creator, and he and I occasionally still keep in touch via email)
as for the rest, game, forums, etc, I just simply disappeared, for all they know, I may have died, left, moved, switched to an alt, etc.
unless he told the players, they will never know.
(that is just how I am)
