Title: Leave of absence
Post by: Rolken on May 10, 2009, 07:25:54 pm: I am taking a break from the TSC community. I am confident that the usual crew can handle things in the interim. Server concerns should be directed to GerbilSoft and ranking concerns to Zeupar or mike89 unless they indicate otherwise. I cannot tell you whether it will be days, weeks, or months until I return.

Post by: Thorn on May 10, 2009, 07:31:26 pm: Will flyby be voicing your opinions in the meanwhile?

Also, obligatory "leaving topics are stupid". Although seeing as you're an admin I'll sympathize and say "Bai :(" for the sake of not being banned for being a prick.

I made this topic in order to explain that I am not updating things at TSC and make people aware of whom they should be contacting if they have concerns. Sympathy was not my goal.

Perhaps Thorn aside though, all the :('s come from the fact that we care about you and want you to know that.

Post by: Thorn on May 10, 2009, 11:04:38 pm: ^ Hey, I'm not saying I don't care about Rolken or anything. >_> If we're going to declare leaving topics to be silly, we shouldn't discriminate and treat ones differently because they were made by different people. That only encourages more people to make them.

The fact that we shouldn't have to all be sad at a leaving topic is actually a redeeming feature of the community: nobody here gets scarred for life by something petty and never comes back. They either leave forever out of boredom, leave to deal with real life for a bit, or leave to take a break due to feelings towards the community or the purpose of competing or whatnot. The fact that it's only morons who leave here feeling discriminated against or insulted is a pretty good thing.

tl;dr: Please don't make me out to be some sort of inconsiderate jerk. :(

I merely didn't want to speak for you, hence the qualifier. I figured you were sad too but who am I to put words in your mouth? Plus I also meant to tease you about being an inconsiderate jerk a little, since you aren't one. Sorry that came out wrong.

Oh dammit, I guess I read it wrong. That means I argued back to a post that wasn't arguing with me, in the middle of a sad thread. That makes me an inconsiderate jerk.

AUGH I'M SO AWKWARD

Well, what is, is. See ya then. I'm curious about Flyby's attendance, though.
