Bum bum bum, another one bites the dust....
Ok enough joking, wtf come back! I didn\'t know you well but I respect you as a member of the community and I bet many others do as well. Come back. :evil:
Well, I can\'t keep Leji here so good luck in whatever you do and bye. :(
Well unless this turns into another depth incident.. :P (though he\'s much much much less active than before..)
*waves goodbye to Leji*
-
It\'s true, leji decided he didn\'t want to hang around anymore. He didn\'t play PS anymore and only a few people ever talked to him regularly on IRC (me included), so... :(
Thankfully I still have him on MSN though, so he hasn\'t disappeared completely on us. :)
It\'s always the nice people who leave... *sigh*
-
No leji dont go! :(
Oww well, you will be missed. Though I will still come to your fan channel as I am still a leji fan :)
-
Byebye Leji.

Or maybe noone just bothers noticing the not-nice people when they leave.

Come back! >.< :(
-
Did he go. I was away for a while so I didn\'t really notice. I feel sorry for all those people that were close to him :(
-
:( I miss Sep. I\'ll be keeping his chair warm for him. Didn\'t know Leji much. But here\'s to hoping they come back someday.
I remember on another forum when a guy named \'Oldsoldier\' left for a bit. Damn near caused a panic. Half the forum threatened to leave. I wonder if they even noticed my going. Makes you wonder. Will any of us really be missed in the end?
-
hay I just thought. what if they were planing this big thingy where they go for a while and they both just all of a sudden come back and stuff. It\'s happened on a differant forum i\'ve been on. Well maybe they haven\'t planned it but yeah. ok ok i\'ll shut my mouth.
P.S. I promise on the face of this earth that i\'ll never leave until I have reached 2,000 or more posts! Unless of course Moogie or another moderator bans me. But then I\'ll just come back again!
-
Well, I didn\'t know Leji, so I can\'t say I\'m crushed. It happens, people move on. Same with Sep.
It is interesting, though to wonder what others think of us, if we\'ll be missed or not.
And Verideon, you\'ve got a ways to go.

Yea, me too.
Anyway, can\'t say I miss Sep... him finding his way to many of my ignore lists soon before leaving and all... :P
As for leji, well, I\'ve seen many cool people leaving PS already... Am kind of used to that...
-
Yeah, same here...
Verideon: You know I could just edit your post count right? :P hehe
-
It\'s funny when you think someone left a long time ago only to realize they\'ve been posting this entire time.
Anyways...I don\'t know who leji is, so eh. :baby:
That big ass picture is screwing up my screen you bastard.

meh impossible to leave, they always return ^^

Well I actually just found out sep quit ps. And so has EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF IT EXCEPT FOR ME!!!!
Faldrok, gone
Dorbian, gone
Newpie, gone
Psycon, gone
Aldiraon, gone
Sifigred, gone
You guys may not have known some of them but we just lost some of the best people the PS community had. We gotta make this place like it used to be again. Sep has lost all hope in ps and so has the rest of my old guild. Everyone who knows how this place used to be like back in like july needs to come togeather and build this community back up to what it used to be. Weather you want to admit it or not this place is dieing. And you know somthing has gone wrong when some of planeshifts oldest and most dedicated members are flooding out of here as if it\'s on fire. This place has become... heartless. The basic fun of actually being here has left us. With the release of CB we forgot that we when\'t here during AB or MB for the game. We where here for the community and eachother. And without a complete game, and without the great community we once had, this place becomes pointless. Hence the leaving of all the people. So, take Kixies words into though \"olbees unite\" and instead of having this Kixie VS Kiern argument, come togeather, and lets build this place up for the sake of Planeshift and the sake of what we have put months and years of our lives into.
Oh and Depth, if you heard how angry sep was at some people (whos names he didnt give so dont ask) I\'m sure he\'s never going to return. THose guys where here for eachother, not this. They moved there guild into like 3 other games and they are all still togeather but IT has officially died in planeshift. Im guildless again and I dont plan on joining a guild so dont ask me please.
-
Haha. Sep and dorbian, some of the best?
Ok...
Nothing is wrong with this community. People always leave in floods during this time, and by the next release, it will be an entirely different set of people (devs and all) save a few.
Quit whining. It\'s happend many times before, and it is going to happen again. So live with it or just go ahead and give up now. It is stupid how every other post on this board is about how the community is going down the hole, blah blah blah.
And I don\'t see what Kixie and myself have to do with anything.

Yeah, I agree in some ways. People will come and go. Most of the people I know now I didn\'t know when I first started playing PS back in AB. And most of the people I knew in AB I don\'t know anymore now. In a few years the community will be different again. I don\'t think that there\'s a problem with the community at all. I just think that most people dislike change.
-
Yeah, lots of people leave, but then lots of new people also arrive. Amongst those new people will arise the new gems of the community to carry the flag and... or... something like that, anyway. Kiern is right. :P
Besides, griefers also leave. The more \'Seps\' that disappear the better, if you want the community to sound nicer in the forums that is.
There\'s nothing you can do to stop people leaving if they think its all too much for them. The strongest stick around and sweat it out and live to see a better time.

Or the storng can stop waiting and make the better time now.
-
Yeah, there\'s lots of gems arriving in Planeshift.
I mean, we have lots of diamonds like Kada, right?
Sure I might think that nowaday\'s gems usually turn out to be nothing more than painted glass, but that\'s just me. :)
-
Last I looked, Kada is mostly -if not all- gone too. Otherwise we wouldn\'t have an elf behind the bar right now.
Add painted glass can be pretty too. Though it breaks easily.
btw, diamonds are not as rare and valuable as you are lead to believe, and kind of cold and ugly if you ask me.
Kada is more of a rare flower. Full of life and sweetness. Not some worthless rock.
-
And there I failed to sound sarcastic ;(
Anyway, a flower is not a gem...
And suffice is to say that when I call someone by an inanimate object, it should be taken figuratively. :O
Diamond:
Its incomparable hardness makes this precious stone an appropriate symbol for durability and constancy; its clarity yields the notions of constancy, sincerity, and innocence. The diamond is light, life, the sun; it is an emblem of purity and perfection, of invincible spiritual power, and it is the stone of committment, faithfulness, and promise between husband and wife. Symbol of light and brilliance; unconquerable; treasures, riches, intellectual knowledge.
I don\'t see Kada as flower anyway :\\
-
I was taking you figuratively, and I didn\'t miss the sarcasm. But to counter:
Diamond myths
Diamonds are very rare.
There is more of a man-made shortage than a natural shortage of diamonds. The distribution of diamonds put on the market each year is highly regulated by De Beers. One figure has stated that there are enough diamonds to give each man, woman and child in the United States an entire cup full of them. (ya, that?s a lot)
Diamonds are indestructible.
This is false. The fact that diamonds are a hard substance refers to their ability to withstand scratching, but that is different than toughness, which refers to the ability to withstand breaking or cleavage. Diamonds can chip, but only a diamond can scratch another diamond. (meaning diamonds are no match for a good steel hammer)
Diamonds are the most valuable gemstone in the world.
This seems like it should be true, but its not. Diamonds are very valuable in the world of gems, but a fine ruby is actually worth more. (a lot more, look it up)
its clarity yields the notions of constancy, sincerity, and innocence. The diamond is light, life, the sun; it is an emblem of purity and perfection, of invincible spiritual power, and it is the stone of commitment, faithfulness, and promise between husband and wife. Symbol of light and brilliance; unconquerable; treasures, riches, intellectual knowledge.
Now those are just all silly properties we silly humans have thrust on a hapless carbon structure. In ancient times, they were even believed to be poisonous.
And now, some scary stuff:
Ten reasons (http://www.fguide.org/Bulletin/conflictdiamonds.htm)
Or just do a search with the words diamond, slavery, atrocities, or a number of other bad words.
Not so pretty anymore, are they?
-
Ok, the forums aren\'t dieing, and the community isn\'t going to hell. No, we\'re all here, good and bad. Come on, people always come and go, it\'s a vicious circle, that we\'re fond of.
If someone leaves, it means that this \"world\" is falling apart? Oh come on ... You know, we all have our real lives as well, lives we have to live. And no one is actually leaving, because there will sure be a day, when they\'ll come check the boards at least, check how others are doing.
I\'m not in the mood to give you a full explanation here, so here you go:
The day the forums ... died (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=10290&boardid=19)
I hope you\'ll have the nerves to read it all, and I strongly suggest seeing the 3rd page.

Well those are the silly properties that I silly human connect with Kada.
I don\'t care about all that scientific jabber. It has nothing to do with symbolism :O

This stuff belongs in PM, and I\'m sure Mogura would like to hear your oppinion about her, but we don\'t care, bla bla bla, the time is now 4:06PM, GMT+1 and you\'re under arrest.

Sometimes Draklar just is showing off why he did get the \"biggest agurer\"; \"most stubborn\" and \"best roleplayer\" awards. This time it is biggest agurer and most stubborn i guess.
*edit* forgot to add the \"best storyteller\" which he got (besides Jedi)
-
This community isn\'t falling apart, but I know that if it would be it would be because of the oldbies who act like morons. Not because of people like Sep...
This is a thread about Leji leaving and you (Kiern, Moogie and Draklar among others) come and say how you don\'t give a damn about people leaving. Are you really so proud about having been around long enough to become heartless?
I\'d like to say you should know better but then I remember that this is how you are and have always been.
Draklar, I can understand that seeing people leave isn\'t special to you since you have left the community 50 times yourself, but why would you want to go say \"As for leji, well, I\'ve seen many cool people leaving PS already... Am kind of used to that...\". It\'s good for you and alll but notice how this thread is called \"Leji is gone!\" and not \"Uncle Draklar does not give a crap about you leaving\".
Now to get back on topic, goodbye to all those who left PS: Leji, Sep, Faldrok, Dorbian, Newpie, Psycon, Aldarion, Sifright. It was fun to meet those of you I met ;)
-
Odd... some people seem to have picked up the wrong end of the stick. Direct me to where I was being so horrendously heartless and not just stating good-natured facts that this is not \'the end\' of the community? My only points were that all types of people leave, some good, some bad, but life will go on here. I never said anything about forgetting those people who left- I have leji and dorbian on my MSN and still speak to them occasionally, as friends.
I apologise to anyone who seems to think I was being mean, but I would like to know what made you think that. Take a chill pill, dudes. :)
-
they want you, its the only reason :|
it is true though, people do come and go, as much as i hate to see Leji leave *remembers the champions in MB*
we have to keep going :)
oh and Kiern, peanut yourself :rolleyes: if oyu dont like a big picture \'ruining your screen\' dont look at it sheesh

I love urban legends... Say once that you intend to leave because rl is getting pretty busy for you and after half a year you have morons saying you left 50 times.
I guess it\'s too hard to understand that since this is thread about Leji leaving, then opinions about this event should be posted here.
Another thing is I never said I don\'t give a damn. Leji was a friend of mine, just like many others who have left this community already. I am sad to see them gone, but it happens so often that I got pretty much used to it. How can you know how I felt when Leji out of a sudden said that he\'s leaving PS? One of the very few people that I enjoyed talking on irc with. And that soon after I lost any hope to see Kada again. Only three people that I really like are still in here (Xalthar, Cad, Nilaya). I\'m not even sure who of them is going to stay (I know Nil will be pretty busy irl). But you proved to be even bigger ass than Kiern for saying I\'m heartless and don\'t give a damn.
I\'m sick of this community consisting of people who are trying to cut each other\'s throats. Everyone have to form groups in which they will attack the other ones. And that keeps on and on.
You know what? Screw this. It\'s the 51st time I\'m leaving. You may point that out the next time I come back. This time I really: Don\'t give a damn.
-
you didnt like me? im heartbroken
Bye Draklar we\'ll miss your sarcasm ^^
-
And another one goes,
hmm,
well see you draklar (For now I refuse to say farewell), though I have to say that, for me as for my mate Tybalt your post really gave \"Draklar doesnt care the heck!\" feeling.
Back on topic: I would prefer to have leji stay, but it\'s his decision really.
-
Right, that\'s it. I won\'t stand by idly while good, sane people leave because insane people can\'t stop chanting \"the community is dying, the community is dying!\". What the hell are you thinking. Do you think that makes anything better?
The only reason it\'s dying is because of you and your stupid constant complaining about something that isn\'t happening. Get a grip.
This thread is locked, and any post I see from anyone that even slightly insinuates this pathetic opinion from now on will be deleted. Sorry but I\'m sick and tired of this.
And I\'ll say right now that I could care less if all the doomsayers here, whoever you are, would just leave right now. Go on, go away, go ruin some other community, \'cause you ain\'t having this one.
