Yeah... I'm moving from mafia-playing to story-writing as a hobby, plus I have a bunch of math to study before I go back to school.
The other problem is that there's no one really active here right now, and I finger scum too easily
It used to be challenging, but ... well, Leafsnail, Dakarian, CK, Webadict, and Pandarsenic are basically gone, as are Rysith, JoshuaFH, Zai, Neruz, and so on. Plus, Solifuge says he may be leaving. I went over to xkcd and nabbed scum from their first post in the game. I hoped a different community would help, but no.
They were good times, but sometimes we have to accept that they're over. I'll check in from time to time and probably sign up for any particularly appealing games, but I wouldn't expect much.
Good to have you back, at least for now. But...why years?
I've finally sorted out my priorities, and mathematics calls. It's the only place left to me, now. My friends have largely revealed themselves to be egotistical wankers, or just busy with their own lives. I'd rather not spend a lot of time waiting for people who do nothing with their spare time but play computer games and drink.
I've sorted out my family problems, but I'm not going to find a fulfilling life with my parents. With what I've learned about relationships, I know that I cannot live on love alone. I need a career, and when I do things I never do them halfway. Looking back on my life, the people who have most impassioned my spirit, treated me kindly, and imbued me with a sense of self were math professors. They're the ones I'll try to please now, to please myself.
I don't know. Simply put, I need to make a life for myself, and I cannot make it here. I have a different duty to uphold. I'd rather spend my spare time networking at talks and department teas than in a dying subforum with people who don't seem to care anymore.
