The main issue I'm having, really. Not the characters themselves so much as knowing the impact their loss will have on their friends and communities. And most of them had some really ambitious plans.

Then again at the end of the day I'm probably fooling myself thinking I have any control over their plans, or who they get to have as friends.

I don't know. I guess I'll sleep on it. But any I keep around are going to be played in a duller and more lifeless world and one I'll know better then to care too much about.

Well, I'm sad and angry that Axiom's not going to be around anymore. That's my investment in people. I found my niche group of players that I really like, and Axiom's one of them. I like the way she plays the game, and I don't mind her level of detachment. I, myself, have a certain level of detachment to things in this game as well. It just sucks for me that she won't be part of this gaming community anymore. I really enjoyed having her here. I think she contributed a great deal on the forums and to this community. I am sad to see her go.

Thanks for the support. Sorry for kicking up a big fuss; I didn't mean to make a public stink before making up my mind. I've just been kind of frustrated and burned out over this. I've decided to wait a few days and see how I feel before making any decisions.

Jan. 14th. I told somebody that today, and she looked at me in sympathy and just said "a summer baby."

Completely understandable given the circumstances. Pretty sure anyone would have quit after having to deal with something like that, and how it was handled. Personally I've lost a lot of trust and respect for people I was fully supportive of before. But I can't help but selfishly hope you continue to play just because you have such unique, amazingly well RPed and fun chars, so I'm glad to hear you're reconsidering, even though again, whatever you decide, I understand and wish you the best.

I admit I'm reconsidering on a couple of mine too, but their ambitions and RP will be scaled back significantly if so.

Even though I don't know any of your chars (And like mentioned before people play for different reasons and thus have different ways to think what's fun and so on). What I heard makes me sad and thinking something should be done before it's too late, can't imagine anyone would be happy after that. Every quitting player means maybe 5-10 chars away and so every death will affect our great game and make it less interesting every time that happens.

What ever you decide I hope you best of luck and strenght:)

Ahahahaha, really? I even put a lady in my avatar to make it more obvious. I get that a lot, though. I guess the nick is kind of masculine.

Man, a surprising number of people have been asking me to stay. You guys are guiillting meeeeeee (but I'm totally susceptible to flattery so it's a pretty good strategy (but I want my free time back you jerks)).

I think I said it earlier, somewhere, but the majority of players (vocal ones at least) are female - on Cantr anyway. All y'all are chicks in my head unless clearly stated otherwise.

Well don't seem so surprised. :)

There really aren't too many widely known characters doing memorable things out there. Narrow it down to those who have a sense if humor about it and a desire to make things fun for others as well and I could count them on one hand (right hand) and still have fingers left over.

Wait, that's not what we're doing. :lol:

Anyway, no, Axiom's one char that I know about is really fun to RP with, and I know my roleplay with all my characters is always better when one of mine interacts with one of hers. She inspires me to put more effort in, no matter how tired or busy I am. And she inspires creativity in goals. So, stay! :)
