Now, I'm writing this in an attempt to talk to people sooner rather than later about this that and the other. The reason I want to talk about it is that I'd rather talk to people about it rather than someone a little bit further down the line going off on a rant.

To put that all into english, a few people recently requested that I return to the game to be part of a faction with them. I'm not going to say who, what faction or what org, until I get some answers on things, I'm simply putting that out there right now.

Firstly, this would not be as my character TheUnknownShadow. That character and all my others were deleted when I said I was leaving as my feeling was then that I really didn't want to come back. The joy of the game had gone out of it for me. I felt I'd personally got all I could out of the game, I had all the items, all the abilities and so on.

Secondly, my other characters. I've come under more handles than many people know me as. Some have guessed, some with more accuracy than others on that one, who was behind a few but it's suffice to say regardless of all that in this game I'm a hardcore roleplayer. I take a lot of enjoyment out of it and I also like to see others taking enjoyment from that roleplaying. I know that many players play different characters and that they show them as such on the forums in sigs and openly talk about it (I always remember the person known as MatrixRefugee on the boards as one that springs to mind... in a good way too) yet I've always felt the need for them to be seperate characters, so I never discussed them all in the same sentence. I probably never will. For reasons of not wanting to start drama for one but also because it didn't feel right to me to be discussing different characters all from the same place. It might not to you but to me, in my eyes anyway, it feels like I would have been breaking the whole mystique.

I could have done this one way which would have been to get a new account and scrap this one entirely and I've also discussed with Virrago about how forum name changes work. However, I'm going to say this for now:

The character TheUnknownShadow and everything associated with that character is no-more, however the person behind the character is being persuaded to join up again.

So how do we go about it? Shall we have a big shouting match on here? Shall we actually talk about things in a normal manner or shall this be entirely ignored?

Honestly, I don't mind anymore. I know there's some people who can't resist starting drama, however I'm really hoping to avoid that. Like I said, I'm going to be here for those few people only. I'll be playing a new character and keeping myself to myself for the most part. However if I post on these boards, is there going to be drama every single time I post (potentially this post too ~ apologies to Virrago/Rarebit/MOD's in advance if editing ensues) or can we talk things through?

Anyway, I'll leave this here. As Morpheus said, "...Either way. I leave it up to you."

hehe technically I don't think I've been away from the game as such for it to require a welcome back but thanks SMILEY You're totally right about the experience being what you make it, just seems that when I made my original idea of my experience on here it grinded some people up the wrong way, which is why I wanted to be sensible and talk about it SMILEY

Forgive me if I've misunderstood somewhere, but are you essentially saying something along the lines of "I'm coming back to the game, but not as me, so let's pretend the me you've known before now does not exist and squash any problems you may or may not have had with the old me?"

Because if that's what you're trying to say... sometimes it's better leaving it unsaid.  And if that's not what you were trying to say, then I'm sure somewhere in this big bad world, someone's head exploded from trying to read that and understand it.

No Puck, you don't.

Why the post, didn't you get what you wanted from this community a couple months ago when you ditched out?

To satisfy wonderings here NightTrace, what exactly do you think I "got" from this community? I'm simply a player, nothing more nothing less.

lol you do have a way with worlds I'll give you that. To clarify on this really, yes I'm coming back but I didn't expect people to forget some of the things I've done, nor do I expect them to be casually washed away, which is why I posted in the first place. I know some people, as is already evident, have bad feelings towards me and that's fine, really it is.

True, I could have said nothing, yet I could have placed money on someone throwing something at me the first time I posted somewhere else.

So, then you are saying that no matter what you post, some people are going to hate on you for things you did in the past, yet you are the only person bringing this stuff up? You think too much of yourself if you think that people are going to stalk your posts and BESIDES... your old rsi is gone, let it be gone or make the same one and re level....

Gqubed with the sooth.

And to satisfy your questions "Shadow", I posted my thoughts in a rather complete manner before, I think it was when you posted a couple paragraphs about leaving and how much you <3'd everyone but were leaving anyway, and blah blah blah.

Fact is you came out of nowhere, made some half decent posts regarding the station launcher, got "e-famous" with a couple people not related to MxO, and then left.

Now you're back.

Big deal?

GQubed said everything that needs to be said, now that I've finalized any questions you had... kk /shrug
