Taking a break

Many of you may have noticed my recent absence from the boards... some of you might not have noticed at all. Well... I've just not been having quite as much fun on here as I used to. It's lost something somehow, and I can't quite put my finger on it. In recent weeks I've felt a little burned out, logging in and posting has really seemed like something of a chore rather than fun, and when that happens, it's time to step back for a while. So, I'm taking a bit of a break from NS. I'm not sure how long it'll be, but I'll be back at some point.

What this means:

For those vultures (you know who you are) speculating about carving up bits of Menelmacari holdings, it's not happening. I'm still logging in and answering issues. Menelmacar is still here, still trading with the same people it always trades with, still dealing with the same people it always deals with, and rest assured that the MIDF will still have its special brand of untimely death ready for anyone who tries anything. All this means is that I'm just taking a break from standing behind the curtain pulling the strings. I'm letting Ctan RP Menelmacar if anything really important comes up, and he'll be running anything he does past me first.

So, I love almost all of you ;) and you're almost all really great people. It's been a great two and a half years with all of you folks, and sometime soon (though I'm not sure how soon) I'll be back to rejoin you. ^_^ This isn't so long, or farewell, or anything like that. It's a resounding tenn'enomentielva - 'Until we meet again.'

My activity has likewise declined, but I assure you I'm still here daily ;) .

Meh, me too on that whole slight burnout thing.

I probably could use a break, but ... obsession... not allows... must keep... playing!

Anyway, go find your true self, and then come back for space elf empire goodness. You know you can't resist...

Nooo! SB's hacked into my mind and is reading my thoughts as I write!

*ahem*

It seems to be almost everyone from the '03 set. Not counting the people who simply left, there's simply a lot less activity.

We'll all (well, mostly) miss you. 'Know I will.

No it won't... I've got nukes pointed at me over elven genocide. Not to shamelessly plug or anything... ;)


Well, I know the feeling of getting burnt out on NS. Happened to me once, so I allmsot quit. Then I went on a week vacation, got some sun, some relaxation and came back stronger than ever.

Aww. Well, happens to the best of us. Don't leave the plebs alone for too long though... they might get unruly. :P

Come back soon! We're always in need of a strong elven oppressor...err...of anti-elf murderers.

Not that I'm one hehe, after all, elves do exist here in Tarlachia...

That leaves Bajon as the #1 elves...

*plots*

But in all seriousness, come back soon. I was gone for 3 months and it seemed like a lifetime. Well, not really, but hurry back.
