Buh Bye

[BaldEagl]

I just wanted to say it once instead of responding to every Tom, Dick and Harry who comes to the BBs whining about the gameplay, eny, collision model, caps or whatever the flavor of the day "I'm leaving because of" reason is.

Cya.  Buh-bye.

I think half these people want everyone to say "Oh, please don't go".  But instead everyone validates them by posting in their threads and encouraging more attention seekers.  No wonder there's so many repetetive anti-AH whines on the boards.

You sound almost as catty and condescending as I am.

They'll be back at Christmas break for a couple weeks.

Then, before you know it, it'll be June again and the sound of squeeky voices will be in the air...well, on the air.

If you are going to leave, let your squaddies know because more than likely they will be the only ones that care. No need for the drama here by posting your reasons for leaving, when you cancel your account there is the questionaire you can fill in for HTC so they know why you did it.
If you want sympathy for your reasons contact the Salvation Army, most everyone here have problems in RL so we don;t need problems from a game.
The only time I don't mind seeing a "I'm leaving" thread is when it's tastefully done and also short.

forgot....   p.s can i have your stuff. just sayin

Lots of "old" guys leave due to burnout.  I think the longer you play this game, the more breaks you need. If you don't take those breaks, you just get grumpy.  That said, I do think game has changed quite a bit (in the non-graphical sense) over the years.  I still have fun, though i'm still looking for a proper furball, though it seems a bit elusive.  I don't really mind the comments left by people leaving....sometimes they are entertaining; maybe once-in-awhile there are legit issues brought up.  It can't be any worse than all the other usual posts that we've seen a billion times

Couldn't have said it better myself. [Hijack] When are you setting up the next Dueling Ladder? I need to redeem myself after loosing in the first round of the last one. [/Hijack]

I just kind of shrug the 'I quit' soliloquies off.  They are just part of MMOs.  There's a whole bunch of people that think they are so special that people will care if they quit, very few actually are.  The worst ones are the ones that go on mini-crusades about how terrible the game is in order to try and take a few people with them.  They always fail miserably but they still try, sure as the sun will come up tomorrow.

Aw dam I thought BE was leaving. Was gonna  ,  ,  ,  and

Yah, but it's kind of hot when you do it.

If you're leaving because the 'game has become the suck for me' well so long.  If you don't want to leave but are forced to because life has kicked you down hard the forums are free. 

This community is awesome.  In fact the best one on the net in my not so humble opinion. 

Ya we can snipe at each other, kick each other around, and so on.  But when the nasty beast that is life jumps up and bites one of us actively playing or not in the butt it's amazing how much of this community rallies around the biteee.  I've seen it happen so many times and I'm not ashamed to admit that one of the recent tragedies that didn't happen brought tears to my eyes.  That is not the first time.  You folks are freaking AWESOME. 

Frankly I wish I had been that smart a couple of years ago.  I never made a 'goodbye' post I just disappeared.  That was quite possibly the fourth dumbest mistake of my life. 

Do we push little cartoon airplanes around and get laughed at by people who don't have any clue about how hard it is to get good at this game? yep.  Will I ever be ashamed of that? No.  Laugh at me because you don't get it and I'll be happy to take you to the DA and you can pick the rides.   

The thing I'm second most proud of is the acceptance of and the, sometimes grudging, respect of the people that play this game and who are on this site.  I've been called every name that is in the book including ankle humper.  *Shrug* I don't have to always AGREE with someone to respect their point of view. The people who know me very well know what #1 is.

If you feel like you have to leave the game for whatever reason then so be it.  If you are dealing with hard times it's understood by a lot of people that have walked that walk before you have.  If you're just trying to see who is going to say 'oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSS SSS  don't leave us' then have a little class and walk away with your dignity intact.

Of course that's just MY opinion I could be wrong.  But on this subject I doubt it.

But not when I do?
