A raging ego. Pay his insults no mind, Mitch. It just feeds the beast.

You think in a group-oriented manner, and don't respect the individual. The game is run in a very collectivist fashion, with high uncertainty avoidance. As a result, it is no wonder that the game doesn't agree with a lot of independent thinkers. Anyway I'm done, if I thought I could alter Cantr for the better I wouldn't have deleted my account.

We all deal with a loss of a character in different ways. I'm sorry that your way had to involve lashing out and quitting. I'm sure that your characters added much to the world and I'm sorry you're leaving. Good luck to you.

Loss of characters? This isn't about losing any characters! Don't make this about me! This is the result of a culmination of experiences I've had in Cantr! The character that was about to die that finally was the last straw wasn't even important to me! He was a character who sat around and did nothing most of the time. What the hell makes you think I cared about him dying? It was about the actions the other players took! It wasn't about losing that character! Unlike old players who consider their characters super precious, I don't care if my characters die. I really don't!

You'll have to forgive me if I don't handle being patronized well. [moderated]

Maybe I'm naive but I took Black Canyon to be sincere as he/she has reached out to me before when I was thinking of quitting.
And when I walk I'm a cyclone
You should see it get rolling
Open my heart and emotions rip out of me
My emotions rip out of me

I'm starting to cull down chars. Right now, in RL I'm having more than I can handle, so I had a compromise with myself. And if things get too hard, I may have to quit for real until my life is a bit more stable. :cry:

We've all been there Aurora, it's understandable and necessary at times. Dealing with issues outside of the game is of course more important. If that's what it comes to, that's totally okay, sad, but it'll be okay!
I just hope you're able to find peace again outside the game, that's what matters.

Aurora, it would be a shame to lose you and your characters, and I hope things in RL get better for you soon.
