I guess I'll keep this to the point: CotH... well, its gone. The server is gone, anyway. As much as I applaud Kretol and Sachiko's efforts to try and revive it, well... we've already taken on too much water and sunk, now. Tuungle was great, but it had problems - plus, its a closed circuit. New people aren't joining/can't join. A lot of folk, veterans, have shelved CotH's chapter in their lives. It is sad, but true. I have as well.

But, CotH is more than just a server. It's in the heart. I still love you guys, and seek to keep RPing with you all, but a new pasture is required. Having heard @"Geoni" talk about it some, I've decided to checkout Freedom, and honestly? It seems damn nice. Small-town community like we were. A whole lot less restrictions though, so expect some weirdness, but everyone seems nice. They just finished Cataclysm's story, though, so you'll be missing that content IC, but they're starting MoP soon. I'm looking forward to it.

So, I guess this is my hand of offering to anyone still here who wants to keep the RPs going somehow. Follow me to Freedom if you like, I'm sure it'll be hella fun for us all.

And thanks for the four years. You guys have been synonymous with my stay in California, and made it for the better. I dunno where I'd be without you knobbers.]]>

Until I find and buy a replacement, this'll be a massive spanner in the works for what I'm planning on CotH. Nothing will be precluded by this, but it might not be finished as fast as I'd like to. For example, the Earthworks forum will take a little longer to complete, I imagine.

WoW oddly tends to freeze much less, so RP is still more than possible.

Just a warning!]]>

I've been gone a while now and have been possibly been considering a return. I'm not to sure if some of the older people I used to RP with are still here or not but I'd love for them to get in touch if they are! Also, what is the current status of Horde RP at the moment?]]>

It has been a LONG time since I left CotH without a single 'yo, see ya'll' and th'was pretty rude of me, I know. However, with things calming down and with me managing my own time a little better, I thought: Why not?! I do owe this community a lot. It practically taught me how to construct an english sentence :D

It even taught me how to not be an ***hole over the interwebs, yay!

Anyway! I'm not even sure of how many of you remember who I am. I stalked the forum briefly before making this thread and there aren't many names which I can remember, but I am hoping they aren't online right now. So, yeah: I still need to download the client (and I have no idea of where to start!) buuuut hopefully, I will be hanging around CotH for a while.


Also, if you were expecting a giant-sized post with an immense list explaining the motives behind my disappearance, I'm truly sorry to disappoint. lol ]]> I am back.

Spoiler:


Sad music for a sad post.

This post took three tries before I could finally get out what I wanted to say.

Its no secret I've drifted from CotH the past few months. I thought simply maybe I was burnt out, tired from creating and managing RP for other people and not giving any time to myself.

I thought if I took a break and did other things, focused on other venues of enjoyment, and let myself cool off and only RP casually then I would recover.

I was wrong, and I have not. I've been looking at my attitude from the past few months, and I've seen a me I do not like. I've realized that things offend me more easily now. I'm quicker to anger, quicker to sadden, and quicker to offend. Every chat I'm in, even non-CotH related ones, have managed to upset me more than they should.

I feel I've fallen not into a routine downer, but an ugly full blown depression. I have no creative drive anymore, no desire or inspiration to create or do things. Even playing video games and simply relaxing does not always feel satisfying.

I originally intended to make this post and just say I'm taking a break but will not actually be leaving... and, that is still true. I can't leave CotH. You guys have been friends and family when I've lacked both. However... I don't think I can really be an active, productive member of the community right now. I need help, to see a counselor or a psychologist or something to help me with myself.

I'll still be on the skype chats. I might even RP occasionally when my mood permits. I'm not going to fall off the face of the world and leave you wondering where I've gone. But my storylines, my guilds, my ideas.... that's all on ice, for now. I'm sorry to everyone involved with me and my guilds and stories, dreadfully tearfully sorry I could not keep the grand promises and ideas I made. I won't be disbanding anything on the server and do encourage all members of Order of Virtue and Windwaker to keep RPing with or without me.. just... know and understand where I'm coming from. I feel terrible that I've fallen flat on my efforts, but I can not even pretend to force motivation now.

So yeah. I'll see you guys around. Things will get better one day. They always do.]]>

So... Anyone know the most convenient way to download a client at the current server patch?

Cheers!

Edit: Oh, I found a torrent. Neat! This thread is just me waving hello now. :)

Edit 2: I am now considering if I should make an introduction, just for the sake of it. Hmmm. . .]]>

I've been trying for a while, but it seems I can't reliably keep my mood up for long enough to really withstand any pressure whatsoever. I have no tolerance for anything and even the tiniest, most meaningless things are making me feel physically ill because it's just too taxing on my psyche. I won't be able to be around too much on CotH to actually take care of things.

I'll try to do some things around the forums and partake in discussions. Basic management things. I probably won't be in-game (as if I was, anyway) and my activity will generally be very decreased until I figure out a way out of here. It just doesn't work out when even a little bit of pressure in the wrong spot makes me feel like this. I can't do it. I just can't.

You'll probably still see me around a bit on the forums. I just want to put this note here as a precaution, so no one is surprised that I'm mostly gone.]]>
