I need a break. Might be permanent. I'm doing an ObiJo. I have invested too much emotional energy in this place, I've been taking it all far too seriously for a long time now, and with all the other stresses in my life right now I am going completely crazy.
Sorry about the people still waiting on forum user characters, but I haven't had the creative energy to do them for a long time, now. I'm especially sorry about Nate's, since he's been waiting for a long time, and got skipped over when I did Drexle's. Sorry mate. Stay in touch via IM/email and I _might_ get it done for you in the future some time. Same goes for everyone else who is in the queue.
Regarding the Select-a-Fave threads, someone else will have to take over, assuming enough people are interested in keeping it running. The regs page is now 100% Gabe's, so chat with him if you want to be added or want to change your details or picture.
Oh, Brad, in case you were wondering - all the submitted art is now public domain, so you're free to use it as you see fit.
I wish I could explain why I am doing this, but it's just too messy and emotional and stupid and personal...
I still think of all of you as friends, some of you as very close friends, and I'll still be online doing other things, so feel free to chat if you see me on IM or send me an email now and then to say g'day.
That's about all I wanted to say. Seeya later...
