Drop;

 I'm dropping Pleakley, The Grand Councilwoman, Zira, and Sonny.

I was hoping to hang around until a global HMD post went up so I could see what I was doing wrong and fix it. But I realise this entire game is just filled with people who are too talented and out of my league. You guys deserve someone with more experience and less RP newbieness. Sorry for botching up whatever I did, I tried to do things right but I guess I didn't know how. Maybe with more practice things will get better.
 
You guys are all really good at what you do, and I haven't seen one single character that I didn't enjoy reading. The other reason I wanted to wait till an HMD post is because since day one of playing here, I've just wanted to gush about how great, how nice, and much fun you all are. The setting for the game is something that impresses me too, and I love the world the the mods have built for everyone.

I'm really sorry about having to drop now when I had plots with all my characters with all you beautiful people. So please don't feel like I'm just ditching because I don't care; I was really, really looking forward to playing all of them. I was excited and had been planning for so long. I wish I deserved to be here, but maybe I'll see some of you guys around? 
 
Anyway, you are all very fabulous, and you have a right to have better Pleakleys, GCWs, Ziras, and Sonnys. 
 
Thank you for playing with me. I tried my best and had fun while it lasted.

Hey guys, I'm chill again. I'm normally kind of lacking a backbone, but you should know that when all this no-fun went down, I'd also been dealing with some lame sad stuff at the hospital I work at, and finding out my mom was sick. Additionally I'm just starting a new full time job as well as some pretty intense accounting classes (which I am crap at), so aside from whatever RP malaise I had going on, there's some other stuff I was occupied with too. 

Anyway, keep on keeping on you cool people, and have a lot of fun!

Okay, to echo what Tucker-mun said - there is absolutely nothing 'wrong' with your RP that can't be fixed by a little practice or some crit? I've really enjoyed reading your characters and bouncing off them in the few limited instances I have (... which is all of my fail, since I'm kind of a hermit, haha) and honestly, bb? I would rather play ALL THE THINGS with you - who knows you have some room to improve - than whoever dissed you on the anoncomm. :| I'm sorry, but being a jerkass anonymously is by far the worse offence than maybe not being ZOMGZ the best RPer around.

I mean, look at it this way. You're willing to play outside of the box, you're not afraid to get involved in plots or start your own. And even just tracking what you've done since you first joined, I can already say I've noticed you improve? If you want to quit for yourself, that's one thing, but don't think it's because people don't want you here, or because you 'aren't good enough'. That's bullshit. How do you think people get better in the first place? They keep at it.

Either way, good luck, bb.
