Leaving...*EDITED*

Well guys, it seems that it's time for me to move on. I know this comes as a big shock to most of you, but it's something I've been wanting to do for a while but just haven't really had a reason to until now. It's been fun, great fun. But now it just seems that things are going down the drain, and I just wanted to drop out before it's too late. You may not know what I mean now, but you will in time. I've made plenty of friends here, awesome friends, but it's just not enough to keep me going, so to you all, you know who you are, thanks. Thanks for the awesome times we've had, for the long in-depth conversations about life, and for the most part being there for me when I was down. To my master, Kueller, I appologize for doing this to ya bro. I thank you for everything you've taught me, and for what we've recently talked about. You've been an awesome teacher and an awesome friend, I couldn't have asked for more. To the DVAS, I also want to appologize to you. I didn't give you any advanced warning that this was going to happen, and if you can't find someone to fill my spot in time, then I'm sorry for ruining it for you. And no, I won't be coming back guys. Maybe I'll stop in on IRC or Teamspeak from time to time, but I won't be on the servers anymore, or posting in the forums. This will indeed be my last. And so, with that, I take me leave. I hope that everyone has a great time here, and that things stabalize once again. So, take care all, and maybe I'll see you around.


*EDIT*
Wow, I'm shocked. I didn't think I'd get this kind of response from you guys, I was expecting more of a "Okay, see you around" from most of you. Im flattered, seriously. It makes me feel selfish for leaving. So here's the deal. I'm going to take a break for about a week and think about what exactly it is that I plan on doing if not hanging out with my family (you guys). I'll let you all know what's going to happen then, because honestly, those of you who have never left or even thought about it have NO clue just how hard it is to leave. It's like putting your dog to sleep, you think it's for the best, but you wonder what are you going to do without it. Now, I know that it's only been a day, but still, try it if you don't believe me, especially if you're one of those people who spends every waking moment here like I do (sad, isn't it?). But yeah, I'll talk to you guys in a week. :)

I'm going to be very honest that this comes as a complete shock to me

I totally did not see this coming, and somehow, I feel very sorry for it.

Gradius, my man. I can't even possibly repay you for all those laughs you gave me, I've had some amazing times with you, and I'm going to miss them

The Academy will be less fun without yout :(

Omg. You've gotta be kidding me, you're like my best non JAK+ friend at the academy, and you are leaving...:( Well, I remember the times we had together, making fun of each other :P, great dueling, the good attitude, always helping the ones in need. I'll surely hope that I, and others, will catch you on IRC or TS.

Man I just want one last duel, and a little talk. If not, take care man, and... Good Luck, on whatever you are achieving.

I can't say I know you, I did see you a time or two on jk3 home. Seems as though you will be missed, many friends you have made here. And though I know you not, may your times be wonderful, whether it be a new game online, or relaxing with friends in real life, to you sir, the best of luck and serenity.

Here I sit at my Internship at the hospital, it's 8:06 in the morning, I decided to take a look at the forums, and I see this tragic thread. I want to thank you for you friendship, for all the good times and good conversations I had with you Gradius, I wish you the best of luck in RL and don't be a stranger...


So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring

Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now

Yours Faithfully,

Well Gradius, I really don't know what to say. This isn't as hard for me as some of our fellow members just because I will be keeping in touch with you sometimes, but still, very sad that you are leaving the academy just like this. I read that email, and well, if it is time for you, then it is time. You will really be missed here. :( And no one here wants you to go... Take care of yourself now though, and if ya ever want to come back, you know what to do. Take care and I'll give ya a call tomorrow.:cool:
