My mom's cancelling the Internet, tv, home phone, and God knows what else. She might take my car away somewhere at any given second because she already took my key. Thankfully I still get to keep my cell phone (at least it seems safe for now) so you can call me on that. But until she decides to stop being a crazy bitch Nazi and start being a mother, I probably won't be able to do much of anything. So... I'll see ya.
p.s.- Sorry about not being able to further help this site and the RPs in it due to my impending absence. You guys can make RPs for the rest of you, though. And keep on recruiting people. Come to think of it, with me and Kaisar gone, I'm going to need someone to maintain order... So I'll make Mike a temporary Global Mod. I think he'd do well at the job. (Really sorry I couldn't talk to you about this before now, Mike, but I have no idea when I'll lose my Internet connection so I kinda have to hurry).

Wow...dude....That SUCKS. Royally. I can't imagine how much that sucks. I mean yeah, being banned from the Internet is bad. But cancelling Internet, TV, home phone, and possibly other things? Shit! That's horrible. I'm not even going to ask what happened.
I hope you get back soon, man! I'll do my best to keep the place tidy until you get back, ok? But don't take too long! We <3 you! (In the straightest way possible. LOL)
I'm sorry dude.

Yea, I agree about his Nazi mother... Either way, I'll tell him he's welcome to post from my computer whenever he needs too.

Apparently my mom called and kept the Internet from getting canceled at some point in time. Anyhow, I'm back and still thinking about my new RPs and how I'm gonna do all this... We really do need to get more people posting on this site. So please remind anyone you know that RPs if you see them to come here and write. De, Middy (happy birthday to her, by the way), Laura, Sanity, Beta, etc. This especially goes for if you happen to see everyone's favorite Aussie, Kaisar. I miss WRITING with my writing friends.

I am REALLY glad you're back dude! Sorry for taking so long to say that. LOL I have checked the site since August 13th, I swear! I just didn't post because I had nothing to say but that. (Sorry. -_- It's been almost a year and a half since really RPing with you guys, and since then I've been a HUGE proponent of anti-spam. LOL In other words...every post NEEDS to have a point now. LOL) But now I have business, and I might as well say it here, since you mentioned it here. As for the rest of the gang...Not having too much luck with that. -_- I'm on almost every night from about 8 to about 1. I'm not always THERE...but I'm on, and if I just pop off to the bathroom, or to help my brother beat a level, I'm always waiting for messages and to see who signs on. BUT...for some reason, no one is around. Veddy IS on a lot, I'll admit...but she's away so much. And I read her Away message, and she says she's sleeping, or she's getting ready for school, or she's shopping, or whatever. So I haven't messaged her. Not even to say Happy Birthday! Actually, on her birthday and days after, she wasn't even on! De is RARELY on. And when she is, she usually pops back into Away mode, or just signs off, within a few minutes. Danny I know is busy because he just got into his dorms and started freshman year of college, and honestly I don't think he writes anymore. He really hasn't written much in years...even in his last project, Evolution, he told me a couple times that he was having a hard time writing consistently. And we all know how long ago that was. Laura...I see her on occassionally, and it's my fault that I haven't messaged her. Shyness maybe. I dunno... Beta? God! I haven't talked to Beta for months! Haven't even seen him on. I suspect he changed screennames. I think I talked to him at the beginning of this year, just idle chitchat, and haven't seen him since. Nishy...Danny was supposedly the last to talk to her (I think), but from what I heard, she had broken her laptop, and it was out for months... But she got it back, and I chatted with her a couple times, and she seemed really busy with work and classes (I think... Not full-on University, but classes...?), and so wasn't on much. And then she disappeared. I think it's been about as long since I talked to Beta. The only other RPers not mentioned are Dave, Matt, Wolfe, and V (Vahalior). Dave...I dunno. From all accounts, he still hates me very much, and so I try very hard not to ask about him, because he told me not to. And I don't know his RPing thing. Matt...*I shrug* doesn't hate ME as much, but I haven't spoken to him in months. Wolfe has been trying to get into the swing of things too, trying to RP again, has been asking me about stuff. Do you think I should invite him? He's more into his own ideas, but I think he MIGHT POSSIBLY be interested. Unless there's bad blood with anyone here..? *is out of the loop* And V...I see him very rarely, and when we do talk, we just chitchat. He graduated University a while ago, and he's working full time now, so I don't think he'd be into RPing. He might....you never know. *gasps for breath after that long paragraph* Anyways. That's what *I* know about the old circle. At least my end of it. LOL I don't need to tell you guys about how Z and Talon are doing. Ummm.... as for new RPs... Mickenzy and I were chatting about that a little while ago, actually. Immortality would be nice to bring back. I was telling her about it, and I realized that it was a cool idea. I really wouldn't mind doing it again! But is there interest? Would people WANT to, besides Vector of course (I already talked to you, dude, and I thought you said you'd like to see it back.)? But...members are the problem. We just...need more. And I know, I'm saying and not doing. But I don't have many options, actually. The only people I know nowadays are roleplayers at RPGC, and soliciting their involvement in Purviews is called "leeching" and is a bannable offense. Mickenzy will tell you; she's a Moderator there! LOL Hell, she'd turn me in! *shakes fist* LOL No, but seriously, I can't ask anyone from there, and I don't really KNOW anyone who isn't busy there anyways. As for friends who aren't roleplayers already...? Ha! I don't actually HAVE friends... Sad, I know. I'm not whining about it! But it's true. I look at my buddy list, and there are 3 types of people. People I met online who are roleplayers, people I met in real life who I haven't talked to in anywhere from 9 months to 4 years (and no less), or family. And my family usually has NO clue what I mean when I talk about RPing. So...that leaves me with nothing but a virtual friends list and my girlfriend, who visits me sometimes. *sigh* But anyways...we need members. Is there ANY way to solicit members for this place? Any conceivable way to advertise? Maybe we should start scanning RP forums? I'm sure there are plenty that don't have the tight rules of RPGC. I'm scared of recruiting from Gaia (no offense to anyone, but seriously, if there are 8,000 members there, I think 7,500 would be barely able to string words together to make a sentence, and 450 wouldn't be able to carry a roleplay post longer than 3 paragraphs, and keep the roleplay going for more than 2 weeks. -_- From what I've seen), but if there's no choice, it could be done. I dunno...if all of us spent some time scanning RP sites, maybe we could find people? Not sure. So. That's my spiel. Let me know what you guys think, ok?

Oooh! Numbered statements! </slight Deadpool reference>
1) God knows I want Immortality back. My favorite character I ever created was for that RP and I didn't even get to use him. And for anyone that doesn't know what it is, then just check the CW graveyard. It really was a great idea.
2) I think out of the final 4 people you mentioned, I would say 3/4 of them at least don't like me and I think I pretty much feel the same way about the same 3/4. Besides, those guys are all posting on Exor's own forum, interrupted only by the occassional Exor emo-nervous breakdown.
3) I've been thinking about joining a few other RP forums for the main goal of advertising this site, though I don't know how successful that would be. I would suggest everyone at least advertise on myspace. I got only 1 member out of that and he already deleted his account, but maybe someone else would have better luck. And for God's sake, PLEASE don't solicit on Gaia. I hate Gaia. I can handle newbs and even some noobs, but not n00bs or nubs. And that's exactly what I'd expect from the land of "OMG I'm a teenager now!!1 Look at my cute chibi version of what I wish I was!!1" Except of course there would be 6000 times more typos in that. I'm kindof wondering how Void would do looking for potential members in Puzzle Pirates. I mean for a game about doing puzzles, there MUST be some other intelligent people besides Void there. And any of us three Mesquite people could check with school friends. I'm thinking about asking people in Versus Club and Anime club if they're interested in creative writing like this at all. On a slightly side note: has anyone considered making a new Outwar account and going back to square 1 to do some talent scouting?
4) Entirely off subject: Mike, do you or Mickenzy plan on ever joining DBNA or should I just go ahead and start that for the 3 people already in it?
5) To end this message on a bad note, I might yet lose the internet (not to mention this house) according to what my mom told me today. But I'm going to do anything and everything in my power to keep that from happening. So... wish me luck

#1) WOO! LOL I know you <3 Immortality. I'll need to converse with Mickenzy to see if she would join. Void? Anyone else? LOL Interested? 2) No comment. I neither wish to insult or defend (or endorse) anything. 3) Ok...to risk being insulting towards anyone who likes Gaia that may come here: Oh god, you're so right. LMAO Gaia...scares me. I have a friend that I like very much, and I met her in a chat somewhere...turns out she was in Gaia forever. And like...I thought she was a normal RPer at first, but Gaians? A whole different breed. LOL I umm...tend to avoid there. Because it scares me. LOL Puzzle Pirates, clubs at school, etc etc? Excellent ideas, all of them! I'd like to see how that works. Considering I don't HAVE a school anymore, it's a bit...difficult for me. LOL But I could do some research into online RP forums too... later. When I'm not at work. LOL As for Outwar...don't bother. Seriph (you remember him?) asked me a LONG time ago to rejoin OW just for the forums, and to help him out in the rebirth of OW Forum RP. Yeah....no one joined. It died in about 2 weeks, and I've been back there (just a little while ago, a couple weeks) and I didn't even SEE a Roleplay section. Maybe I didn't look hard enough...but I doubt they even have it anymore. So...I'd say no luck there. 4) Mickenzy WON'T. LOL She's not one for DBAnything, even if she did watch some of the first DragonBall. I've asked her, and she didn't want to join. As for me... I was really thinking of joining, and I went to a DBZ/DBGT site, looking up info... But it's been so damn long since I watched any, and I watched a good chunk of Z but NONE of GT, and I'm reading up on races and dragonballs and all that stuff and I'm just like "Fuck...I can't do this!" I can't even decide what race to be, nevermind strengths and such. I know that the RP isn't going to have canon characters, but still...I'd feel out of my league. So no, I don't think I'll join. I'm sorry! I think I'd rather work on Immortality. 5) Umm...shit? Dude, that SUCKS! I'm sorry! I mean...losing internet is tough...but losing your house? I'm sorry man. I hope it doesn't happen! If you need anything, just let me know, ok? Good luck! (I don't know what to say without sounding either cheesy/emotional for no reason, or sounding heartless for no reason.)

Psst....
<.<

I'm back. And I'm 99.9% complete on a completely reworked (and entirely rewritten without a single reused sentence) version of Archelu, now called EXADHOS (pronounced "eks-aw-dose"). Soooooo.... everyone needs to wake up and slap themself in the face with a week old herring wrapped in a cold, wet towel cause I need to see some people around here before I spend my time waiting for people to join the RP.

Right....its MIDDY or midnight, whatever I went by...I had to create a new identity because my computer was formatted a few months ago
And I just found this web address in one of my saved Files which I have to relabel, fun yah!
WOW, okay, thanks for the birthday wishes, I was in Princeton and had no net access hence why I was off and to arch: sorry for always being away but I'm not necessarily away....just avoiding some people politely is the best way to put it? I don't know how to put that ^.^"
And over the past few months I was in California for a bit, college, blah blah, and yeah, I'm done. Not very eloquent and not a lot to say but okies, it'll do for now I suppose, take cares!

Hey guys. Wow.
You know, everyone was gone for SO long... I lost track. Lost touch...in just about everything. I came on here like every few days at first, then every couple weeks, and then... Then I didn't even check for like a month, because no one even logged on. I checked your last log-on one time, Z, and it was like 3 weeks before the date I checked it... I didn't know what to do. It was like...nothing. And I just plain forgot to check after awhile. But I see that...SOMEBODY is kinda around.
Sadly enough, I'm not. Not really.
RPing lately has been...incredibly hard. I can't QUIT...it's not how RPing works. Roleplaying is supposed to be fun, and supposed to be enjoyable, and I just...can't find much enjoyment. Not where I am, and on the site I have been, if I can't find something I like, then I doubt I could find it anywhere. I want to roleplay...or at least, I did. But now? Now I think I'm disappointed, and sad. Now I think I need a break. I guess I've kinda been ON a break...but it's not the same. I've spent months TRYING to write things, and pushing so hard that it drove me crazy, and getting so little out of it that it made things worse. I don't know if I CAN roleplay anymore. Maybe it's dead. Maybe my creativity is gone. I don't know. My head isn't right tonight, and maybe I shouldn't be writing this now, because it could very well be my mood talking. But...I'm so very tired.
I want to do it, I really do. I wish for the old days a lot, especially lately. The old days when there were 10 of us, and we banged out 10 posts a day each, and we discarded roleplays faster than the fashion industry discards fat models. I'm not one to look on "the old days" with rose-tinted glasses. I know that most of the time I sucked, and my writing was cliche and uninteresting. I know that sometimes, reading our writing was like reading a 5th grader's first draft in his L.A. class. And roleplaying at the site I'm on now, I've learned how much better the writing is when it's not two sentences, and when we use spellcheck. But...I can't find the fun anymore. And that makes me so upset sometimes.
I'm not on much anymore, to tell the whole truth. Actually, I'm barely on at all. I work 8 hours a day (sounds normal, but I've been doing 6 for the whole year, and 8 now is hard...) and we're incredibly busy. Deadlines are incredibly difficult lately. And I'm spending more time with Mickenzy (Crista). Actually, on the 28th, I'm going to visit HER for the first time, and meeting her parents. Then, on the 3rd, she's coming back with me to my house to stay for a few weeks. We have an agreement that we work on roleplaying during the visits, but I feel bad coming onto AIM when she's here, so I don't. Even before or after, I tend to be on only 2 hours a night. 7-9 pm, EST. I CAN stay later, but most of the time, I just go watch TV or something. And when I AM on, I'm invisible, because I'm so tired of talking to a lot of people on my buddy list. If ANY of you want to talk, seriously just message me. I'm there, just invisible, and even if I'm not, I leave the messenger on most nights. So please, guys, you can talk to me. But...I'm mostly invisible.
I'm really sorry. I know you guys relied on me once. And I know you guys liked me, once. But...I just...haven't been very good lately. It seems like I've alienated all my old friends and my new ones. And I'm so very tired... All the time. I don't know what to do, and I don't know how to do it without hurting everyone. I'm sorry. Really really sorry.
