A resignation
« on: April 01, 2008, 07:27:35 am »
Unfortunately due to the enormous pressures related to working for this game and some professional needs of my own personally, I must quit as the settings leader. There have been some very stressful disagreements with that players base that I cannot reconcile myself with and there is just no way I can foresee my self continuing to be happy and grow as a person under the current conditions.

I hope sincerely that no one will take this as negative reflection on the dev team, or on themselves personally. It is not the fact that one or another of you have offended me, it is the aggregate of things that I can no longer deal with. I must now tend to my health and well being and work on continuing my education in a manner that moves me more toward a paying job that will find me in a better place.

If things settle down for me personally, or I gain some perspective I may well return to work on this great game.

It has been great knowing all of you and this is not a good bye I hope, just a "see you later."

Best of luck to PlaneShift.

* Under the moon waves to the players and follows Xillix.
Not follows -literally-, as that would be stalking.

Good luck whatever you do.

Looks like this thread is not yet into April though it is after midnight here,

Ahhh, justified my time offset. That makes more sense now.

This is a sad blow to the development team, but your health is the most important thing. I try not to forget that real life must come first. I hope the settings team will pull through this together, and not suffer too many setbacks as a result of losing Xillix's overall direction and expert knowledge.

Vornne waves sadly: farewell Xillix, Queen of Fools.

PlaneShift is going to miss you until I force you to come back, Xil.  As your protege I can honestly say that no matter how far you go... I will find you :P
Best of luck and I do hope you return before too long.  If you want, I'll take over your job.
[I actually did have a talk with Xillix and he says this is actually happening.  On that note, if you were lying Xil, I'm never forgiving you :P ]
<Jeraphon>oh khado
<Jeraphon>you so khrazy

Still stunned here.... The short time we've worked together was awesome, XilliX. Come back, soon.

*Morla sits on a rock near the river gazing at the water. She has seen too many dissolve in the mist. But still she has seen that a return is possible... She lies back on the cold stone and says in a faint whisper:

"Good luck, Xillix Queen of Fools, and may your way lead you back to us some day... "

"Under the moon, you too?" *lays a paw on his shoulder* "Take care..."

Edit: added Under the moon

lol yep, this whole joke was "accidentally" announced on fool's day, and waiting one more day for having it appear serious was just too much, huh?
whats new as well? PS will have to pay devs, cash will run out and playing PS will cost money? ...

nice try nonetheless=P

Whats going on? Already receiving PMs of players who quit PS upon these news =S
First the devs go, and now the players leave Oo - even if this is an april joke, with players leaving PS wont be the same anyway.. maybe its time look for another roleplaying game? =/

Folks, to which game are you switching to now?

Calm down velh, the minute you play this game because of someone else, is the minute you fail yourself.

People come, people go, thats life.

Me on the other hand, i'm staying here, even if everyone leaves, it just means training will be easier! ;D
