Not really quitting again, since there's one char I enjoy deeply and I don't feel like letting die at all, but I'm finding some things more and more disappointing each day, and in general terms I don't feel the "challenge" nor the thrill anymore except for a couple of cases... I'm really considering limit my activity to that one single character, and it brings a strangely sad feeling.

Only you can change a charri's destiny. If they are bored , or they are to tied into major drama.. there is reason enough to move them somewhere... set them in a new direction.


It is so unfair to other players when someone gets bored with a charri and just lets it sleep for so many years... more so to those that have special connection to the sleeper.. it puts them on hold, waiting and wondering.. only to have them die 5 years later.

I'm a bit more drastic than the "letting them sleep for years" XD And yes, I find that "unfair" too and not the best literally device, so that never was an option for me.
Also I don't expect other players to "come and entertain me", it ain't so, but it's kind of hard to explain, most in a foreing language. I'm not blaming other players for not feeling the thrill myself, that'd be quite absurd. It's just that the feeling is gone and I just can't get it back, as the song says.

If we could read your mind Nan, what a tale your thoughts would tell, maybe we might be able to cure that weird feeling of yours too...

I've slowed down a lot since September. Not quitting, just have no real story lines going. I enjoy everyone I RP with but sometimes can't figure out what to do in order to make things interesting.

I am going to have to slow down... If it gets busy I might just have to quit...
And this time it's not my usual good humored scare for you, this time it's real ;)

That is just to not make your ego bigger :P

And that's false! I don't know most of your chars, but one of my chars will miss that one! *Vega points that one.*

I know of one specifically that would be quite devastated if she lost that one of yours, Henkie.. and after all they have been through.. it would totally destroy her! You can't do it..
