Yet another one of those sad topics

[Lumin]

Is it lack of interest or lack of time? Either way it may only be temporary, I've had the same problem before and later regretted losing my characters. My suggestion is just to send all your boring ones on a long trip. By the time they get where they're going you just might feel like playing again.

But this is a prime example of why I never make more characters than I can handle. I figure five fairly active characters are better for the game than fifteen that never speak, and even if I do get really busy or just sick of them it's easy to make preparations to keep them alive for awhile without my having to babysit.

(Actually, I'm getting very bored with one of mine right now. It'd be better if there was some interesting conversation to get involved with, but half the population sleeps and the other half just hits animals and whispers and barely responds to questions...)

One of them I want to complete her quest and then quietly fade away

That one worries me a little

I know what you mean though, sometimes Cantr become so much of a chore, i'm not quite playing out of obligation yet, and hopefully i wont ever, but still...

Is it lack of interest or lack of time?

The two are not separate issues. I only make time for things that interest me. Therefore, if I have no time, it is because I don't want to have time. Currently in my life, I'm undertaking a pretty major blogging project (I'm video blogging), trying to start up a new business, leaving my old job, and grieving for my cat, who is dying.

Needless to say, in the face of much more important things, Cantr just seems to be very... meh.

[Spider]

I felt like I had to play a little while ago when I didn't want to.... Like no more desire to play, then I made this friend (cause of the characters) and it got fun again cause we would talk about the actions after....So I just started playing again

I admit, I often check my chars... but when someone speaks to them, I will often not answer until much later... yes, I am evil.

Like when one of my charecters names are lit if there not charecter im to into or not really or dont really care about Ill just wait a few days then check up on them, Its the oposite tho for my important charecters

Playing cantr is a obligation?..... As real as cantr is Its a only game and its not like there your charecters are your pets or something. If you dont want to get on cantr then just dont, I mean. If im bored with a charecter or dont reall give a damn about them im just gonna let them get the sleep sickness. I mean why play cantr if its not fun?. If you feel its a "chore" to check up on your charecters do some thing bad, steal or hit every one in town and then run then all your problems for that charecters are gone or if you really ambitious you can just keep attacking your self until your dead

[Floyd]

It's very hard to explain.. I guess it stems from not wanting to let people down who you RP with, if you just let your charrie fall silent, and it's one who frequently interacted with a charrie of another player, there bound to get a little pissed

Just say you've got a headache.

[Slowness_Incarnate]

Hehe..Kenneth was amusing for the brief moment that I met him. Without even knowing it, he scared the hell out of one of my characters. Went into hiding for like half a year after some project was done..

Aww and he was just trying to be friendly! Well, there's a good thing to remember, get a house and a load of food and if you don't feel like playing, just go inside and wait a year or so and maybe things will change.

I dont remember that, was that before Holden and Ken went a'travellin'?

[SekoETC]

No, I think it was when you were sleeping. There's this old lady that hasn't been out of her house in ages, Ken saw she was jumpy and wanted to be extra friendly and careful but he was so happy when she gave him food when they were running low all and so he hugged her. Poor old nutter...

[Floyd]

That Ken! Who wont he hug?

[DougBrown]

I only have one Character-Archorn- that is keeping me from pushing the Big X.....But if he dies I guess i'm, addicted enough That I will just start A new town somewhere else....or in anger and immuturity i'd organize a massacre....?

[Debsy]

then I made this friend (cause of the characters) and it got fun again cause we would talk about the actions after....So I just started playing again

For some odd reason...I'm thinking this friend could be me??
