I love Equinox

...and that's what makes this so hard.


I will be leaving Equinox starting right now. I just realize as I am typing that I had a position. I am sorry, but I did not anticipate this decision. I do not plan on coming back. I don't plan on visiting. I have an addictive personality, and I can't just have a little. I need it all. That is why I am leaving Equinox. Truly, the amount of respect I have for some of you is huge.

I've been a douche. I've been burning bridges. I am sorry, fullstop. I'm sorry, Hadi. I'm sorry, Kevin. I'm sorry, Falc. I'm sorry, Equinox. I've tried to save Equinox, and in that I've lost sight and I've just been a cunt. I don't want to be remembered for my last month or so.

For those that don't know me well, I get depressed a lot. In fact, I've attempted suicide twice. I have lost 30 lbs of muscle in my last 10 years out of high school. I drink, everyday. The other day I went to my uncle's funeral. He was 55. He was an alcoholic. He was similar to me. We are from the same family. You would prolly call my family: successful, rich, waspy. We are similar in the fact that we are both washups. I work at a Home Depot. He was a used car salesman. I don't want to die like him: passed out drowning in the tub.

I've been tired of Equinox. I love you guys, but I need life. I have a serious girlfriend for the first time in like three years. I am attending SLU this fall semester. I am studying the classics. I want to be a Latin teacher. I want to coach a sport. I'm gonna do more rec league sports. I'm gonna go sailing more. I just want to spend less time playing this game. You guys are the best, but I need to switch things up fast.

It's not the government. It's the people. Just have fun. Don't worry, be happy. I don't want you guys to lose what we have here. a special region. I've been in many regions around NS, and early Equinox was the best...of them all. It really was that fun.

Aisli, come back. Stop being a whore.
Hadi, you are a great man.
Mek, I love your attitude.
Kevin, I respect the way you can call bullshit. george carlin'd be proud.
Asylum, stop this mafia bullshit and come back to Equinox. You're to special.
Hosp and Whiggy, pure respect.
AV, you put so much into this region and I love it.
Falc, you are a douchebag. but you're also a nice guy.
Ant, Nord, you guys are amazing at leading.

Everyone else, I love you too. No less either. I just think if I make a full list it'll be full of bullshit.

In the most amount of regards possible,

HI HO SILVER!

I understand Jahka...good luck with what ever you do. I am humble with what you said, just don't ever, ever forget there is a home here for you that will...well always be home for you....and I don't speak for Equinox myself, but I'm sure they will have the same feelings as I do. We heart you, you've been a great comrade, always fighting the good fight. I hope you keep playing Supremacy and be on MSN. See you next time cowboy

Much respect for that post Jahka.

Not sure who took away your citizenship so hastily, but I am going to restore it because I will personally put you in the Hall of Fame. I think you deserve it by now... you've probably accomplished more under the covers here than the obvious contributions.

I know what you mean when you say you need a life, which is why I retired in September. I still consider myself "retired" from NationStates... I want no part of the b.s. politics, or defending/invading, because it's just a major downer, a timesink, and overall frustrating, unrewarding, and you work volunteer jobs that nobody thanks you for.

But I did manage to find a "life" so to speak... I think everyone can be in agreement that a lot of us in the prime of our NS "careers" sit around at the computer, go on multiple forums, and three hours later you've accomplished absolutely nothing. :P

You can balance being here with real life Jahka. I have a girlfriend as well, who I love dearly and doesn't know that I play or played NationStates :P (my last one did, and didn't care.)

I coach a recreational soccer team, AND a competitive soccer team, who both have won their first games of the season, the latter team defeating a squad that was two divisions above us on Sunday, and the former has a game tonight. That means I also have two practices a week for these teams in addition to the games and tournaments this summer. Add that to the fact I am my soccer club's Head Referee (http://headsoccer.ca/contact.html ... find me!), and head of our club's non-affiliated competitive program... I'm at the fields almost every day of the week. And that's not including that this team: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orangeville_Athletic_FC just called me the other day asking me to play for their team as goalkeeper, which I have no time for.

Naturally, I also work at a bank hours of the week.

Yet, here I am posting on Equinox.

There's time for everything but we will miss you here. You'll come back. They all do, even Morrenstien.

Wow. I just cyber stalked you down Falc. I feel dirty...

Jahka. This post just earned my utter and complete respect for you. You didn't bow out throwing punches, or bitching and moaning. You bowed out cause you needed too. You needed to move on from NationStates, and you discovered that in the end this game doesn't matter.

I wish you the most luck I can send you. You deserve it, and I hope that you have a life that is worth living.

Much love,
Asylum
