A Decision

[IceBlade]

I've decided to take a month off from the computer. I'm completely unhappy with my life and I need to do something to change that. I'm entirely addicted to this machine. I have stopped going out. I have stopped playing guitar. I have stopped working out. I don't do anything anymore but sit in front of this computer screen. The answer to what I have to do is obvious. I have to get away from the computer and get my life back on track. This is the reason why I must leave for awhile.

I know this division is just starting to turn over and get some potential but I honestly feel like I can wait no longer. I've been wanting to do this for a very long time but unfortunately I can wait no longer. I hope you all don't feel abandoned and that you understand why I have to do this.

During my absence I intend to completely stay off the computer except for a few exceptions. One being to type up homework assignments and the other to do my online banking. During these times I will check my e-mail (iceblade@fallen-angels.net) but I will not log on to any chat programs and I will most certainly not be playing any games.

I finally feel like I have a chance to get away without having this division fall through. Every time I have left in the past the division has crumbled. Napir is a highly capable individual who will run things while I'm gone. Spin has said he will step up as HiC in order to help Napir out with things while I'm away. When I return he may wish to keep the rank or he may wish to give up the responsibility. That is entirely up to him.

AA members.. I want to come back and hear great things upon my return! Don't just sit around and do nothing! I want to see some great times and great competitive play. I want to see friendly new faces! You are all very capable individuals with at least one thing in common. Having fun playing AA together. Just remember that. We're here to have fun.

Stoner. I say this to you above all because you have the potential to be a great leader. Step up and take charge. Do what needs to be done. Help those who need to be helped. You will be in charge of CAL in my absence. Work with Napir in scheduling, tactics and gameplay. I'm very sure you'll do very well.

One last thing. The server. I have put in $20 towards keeping the server. Now it is paid for the month of October but I suggest we get a jump on it and get November paid for early. Like we’ve been doing the past couple of months now. It gives us reassurances incase things go wrong and allows for long money transfers to go through without any problems. $100 a month is not very much if people step up and participate to keep it going. Any contribution helps no matter how small.

Recruiting. The new recruits have not been on the forums. I want you all to tell them to get on the forums! I expect to see Crook, Raven, ThaOne and other new recruits posting upon my return.

Have fun while I’m away and don’t miss me too much. <3
