Hi All

It has been suggested to me it might be a good idea to just put this apologie up on the Forum before i take the game off my PC to Dominus and other players in the Game on Heaven Tear Server .

Ok, i never ment to upset anyone and i hope people feel the same way towards me, maybe it was a miss understanding or not i dont know but we all feel under pressure and stressed from time to time in this game. Playing a Barb at Lv101 is not easy, your always called on to hold agro and be on call to help especially when your in a big faction. there is only so much time people can give to the game and i hope as i ve seen other play they give 100% when they are on. I have every respect for anyone who spends time on this game, especially the ones who have to juggle real life stuff like family and work with trying to give enough game time to there in game friends. So sorry for any ill feeling and hopefully if i do ever come back on Bluemane people wont find it a problem. Now i know some people will just go "Chill dude its only a game" but i like to do my best in game as i do in RL and supporting my In game "family" is very important to me...even those who now do not feel the same way. 2 years playing one game is a long time and its hard just to give up so..Good Luck to everyone in Heaven tear, have fun and remember when you are giving someone toon grief there is a real person behind that so just think ..breath a bit and remember its only a game...or you will end up like me.

Thanks all.in PWI for a great game and to eveyone who plays everyday to just get the one more bit of EXP..

Respect to you all..

Blue

    Hey Steve, I don't believe I ever had the pleasure of squading with you. I'm sorry to hear you had some issues ingame and that may have caused some real life issues. That's one of the dilemmas of gaming, especially playing a really good game (disputably subjective) like PWI; playing it so much tends to disrupt the balance of our lives and affect relationships just like any addiction that gets out of control.

    Many of us play to make up for what is lacking in our real lives (ie: adventure, relationships/companionship, a sense of purpose and/or belonging, competition, creativity, or to just escape the harsh realities of life). I hope the near future has many wonderful experiences in store for you and your family.

    Cheers, Dande.

    Bluemane is one of the nicest, most generous players I've known on this server. As a barb he gets pulled in 14 different directions every day, grabbed for BH's and Rebirth and TT runs constantly. He has *always* dropped whatever he was doing to help, and given till it hurts. He *always* did hour-long herb runs for the faction, and was fantastic support for everyone.

    I don't know what happened on that run. I don't really care. I just know it was obviously the last straw for Blue, and now a good friend and one hell of a barb has quit, because someone couldn't put a cork in it.

    It's a Game, boys and girls. Getting in enough of a snit over an instance to drive good people away from the game is counter-productive, and I for one don't appreciate it.

    Good Luck Blue, and Thanks.

    I haven't squadded with you either Blue but getting pulled in so many directions is so very common on here. Hopefully you'll be back soon.

    Sometimes you just need to make time for yourself to get done what you need done in game. Sometimes that means turning peoples request for help down. Others need to think about other players in game and remember that they have goals and things they'd like to get done as well as help out their faction and friends.

    lol Ducking, .....we barbs are a bit of a hand full when we get together. I used to look at the other Barbs gear, pm to see who was tanking and buffing and take it from there. I must admit the break from playing is having its benefits as im having more personal time with family and dont have to clock watch to see if i have time to do anything.

    On a note Lulius to rejoining Dominus i dont think that would happen as i would probably be refused or black balled but we will see....its the TW availability and i clash with a few people high up in the guild cause i wont back down and stand my ground ( in game as in life..lol..im justs.stubborn) ...i do miss all my "in game family" Specially Redmenace.."waves angry fist to the kids on the front lawn" and try and drop on to vent to see whos about to chat but its prity quiet when i go on . ...anyway thank you all again its cheered me up no end as i was really down when i left the game and i mean..really down. b:pleased

    But the person i miss the most is Mody as i always had someone who had the same experiences and situation that i had and we had so good chats and put the world to rights many times.....its a pity it all went up in smoke over a silly thing but thats what happens when you get to involved in playing this game.

    Anyway cheers for now.

    Blue, I talked with Moddy last night, and want you to know, that you are welcome back to Dominus if the situation arises where you wish to return. I hope that things continue to work out well for you, and I am sorry it took what it did to cause you to leave.

    Thank you LOR, atleast i know i have somewhere to put my Barb if and when i ever return.After what happened its going to take a while to get things back to normal in RL this end and i dont really like the idea of coming back in the near future b:sad....frankly it makes me sick with worry even thinking about it b:surrender....to think a game and people could have that affect ..who would have thought . I will drop in as i said from time to time to say hi on vent but as i am no longer on "friends" list im only able to get in to the top room....but atleast i can still do that. Stay in touch everyone and i will catch up when ever i see a post up.

    Cheers for now

    Thanks Lulius but it looks like a small group of people are wanting to make it difficult for me by just ignoring me on vent....can i just make one point very clear..I WAS PUSHED TO THE POINT OF BREAKING by people in the faction...as red put it i was pulled left right and centre and now a minority are wanting me to suffer.....fine . It wasnt all my fault and i have apologised for my out burst to Mody but there were circumstance in my personal life that both Mody and Rule plus other new about which made it hard for me to operate in game but fine im not going to beg and im not going to take all the blame.....I hold no bad feeling about whats happened but im not going to be the one to suffer..i personally have suffered enough and more than some people realise.

    If anyone wants to have it out with me on vent then fine i will talk but im not going to be made the bad guy in all of this.

    Maybe they're ignoring you because you like to drag an issue on and on and on?

    I was one of those "interested" onlookers, actually gave a thumbs-up to your original post, thinking you were gonna just take a break and leave it at that (I always had respect for you in the time I knew you but I do recall similar antics of quitting), but if this is so suffering why are you repeatedly making the same post as post #1 and making molehills into planets? You're either creating undue "suffering" for yourself or are pushing way too hard for sympathy.

    i have every right to put my side as i was not allowed to put anything on the Faction Forum as i instantly removed and i have not had a chance to speak personally to the person concerned. When you have family , children, work , home to pay for and bills plus a family member who has a termanal ill you would think people would make allowance when things get hard but i see now i was wrong. ......and i have no idea who you are ? but im not looking for an argument just some understanding...as for looking for sympathy you dont know me at all....if you think that
    Hate to break it to you but sympathy is synonymous with understanding in almost every context you can imagine. However, pertaining to the topic at hand, I already know the story as you've repeated it several times over now, but, I'll leave it at pointing out the more you drag on this topic instead of either playing or quitting, being in Dominus or not being in Dominus, after the long vent, the less understanding/sympathy you're going to get. This is a game. If you're not having fun, find a game or a faction in this game that helps you do so. This supposed misery and suffering is something you're perpetuating all on your own when it doesn't need to be. b:bye
