Charas-Project

I stumbled across Charas sometime in 03 or 04. I never really started an account until 05.
Some 2-3 weeks prior to my finding charas, I also stumbled upon RPGmaker. It was fun. It indulged my Early-twenties thirst to fart around and make a nostalgic RPG.
In time, I became Active, And found quite a few friends here. I was always one of the older members, but in the past it never really detourred me from Enjoying things. A community devoted to Public Domain Sprite making. I thought it was good all around.
I saw Mods come and go. Admins Quit, and new ones take their place. In time, I was eager and proud to be able to play a part in staffing this place. I wont lie, it made me feel good to give back to Charas. Very Recently I was Made administrator...And I felt even better.
Some of you are perhaps the raddest dudes on the internets. I enjoy the company on MSN. You know who you are.
It seems like every year I get older, and the bulk of the members are younger. I feel very much out of place here lately, and even though I have only been an admin for a short time, I really dont think I will be able to do any good here any longer. My heart is totally not in this place anymore. I still think the project is great, but I feel more like a "old man gemini" then the community deserves.
Personal life is a bit too demanding for me to pretend to be able to get anything done around here. I have a Fiancee, I own a condo that is killing my bank account, Im trying to support my lady through a potential second bout of cancer treatment in as many years, while trying to maintain my own failing health on top. I manage a kitchen and in the near future, pretty much all of my time will be devoted to this. I gotta think about work, and trying to make sure that life pans out. This is not to say I am unhappy. Im a pretty happy dude all around. I just also happen to be stressed
If you havent figured it out yet, this is a Goodbye thread. Im resigning as admin, and as a member.
I dunno dudes, I can spit out all the nicey nice crap, or I can just say screw it, and keep it short.
PEACE FAGS. IM OUT. REAL LIFE CALLS.
QUIT TAKING THE INTERNET SO SERIOUSLY.
CHARAS IS NOT YOUR HUGBOX
Its been swell. Ill say hi now and then...And whenever i get my sprite templates done, they're all yours
-
*slowly begins applauding as tears roll down his face*
oh, gemini, we hardly knew ye. Or I hardly knew ye.
enjoy the real life side, bud.
thebigvs@gmail.com is my MSN
not like you care.
but its there just in case.
-
Damn. This weekend really does suck.
Good luck finding everlasting happiness and all that **** with your wife and your kitchen. I know it's hard to tell if I'm serious or sarcastic all the time, or even what the **** I'm talking about, but in all seriousness I wish you a peaceful and joyful life.
Seriously. :D
We'll miss ya, PAYCE G-NIGGA
-
Sad to see you go, but yeah, real life is more important than the Intarwebz. Good luck.
-
See Ya Gemini. I always liked reading your posts :D and although you dont know me to well, or i you, i will miss ya man.
I dont see why you still cant drop in here and there. Not like checking a forum doesnt take 5 minutes :P but i understand man.
Life has been pretty busy for me too.
I wish you the best in all your future endevors man. Just remember, in the end it doesnt even matter :P
-
read my last sentence. and then read your post. and then read my sentence again.
-
Get back in the damn kitchen.
-
.......yes sir
-
So long Gemini. I'll miss you. Good luck with your life, man.
-
Damn. A member I'll miss. Great sadness envelops Charas! I needs mah hugbox, NAO.
-
May the force be with you.
-
Aw, man. You were tied with a couple others as my favorite staff member. But I understand. It's been nice. Good luck to ya.
-
Pff. Quitter.
You were always my favorite.
-
Good luck on the dusty trail ahead man.
-
Uhm, it's always sad seeing an older member go (older as you've been there longer, not your age!). It's even worse if it's a great member.
Sucks to see you go, you'll be missed. But of course, real life is more important.
Farewell.
-
I never really got to know you since I became less involved in charas, but when we did talk it was cool. You've always been a valued member of the community, be sure to stop in every now and then to say hey, man. Good luck and farewell!
Real life > Charas
-
... No...
Well, best of luck to you, the world just have to do without your awesome game ideas for the future.
-
Bye dude. Good luck with everything.

I was listening to the M.A.S.H. song and had just finished reading

Needless to say, I almost cried.

Good luck, if your health starts to fail too much let us know.
We are here to support you.

*Wall-e voice*

*looks down sadly*
-
Well, there goes all the awesome on Charas.
This place is going to suck balls without you, y'know. Serious balls. Massive man-balls.
Still, you have your reasons. Call in sometime when things are better.
See you around, brotha.
-
Honestly, I don't even know what to really say about you leaving :\ Good bye, I guess, since there's too much that I WANT to say that I don't feel like writing down.
-

CHARAS IS NOT YOUR HUGBOX
To be honest with you, I thought you were a complete douche right up to the moment I read this.
-
Thank you for all the time you dedicated to us.
Thank you for your words.
Thank you to be alive.
And as Charas is not your hugbox i'll simply say...
Goodbye Gemini, I'll miss ya!!!!!
:hi:
-
Dude, Alex, did you just make a post? What the hell is happening?
-
He just happened to be on at a good time. He needed to announce some server downtime stuff.
-
I don't post much, true. But i follow what happens here.
We had 3 server changes in last months and i didn't wrote a word.
If i posted here, it's simply because Gemini deserves it.

Truer words were never posted.
-
Wow. I hope I get something like than if I ever leave...
-
Yeah, Gem will return for your leaving thread :p

Well regardless of why you're here, nice to see you.
I miss the old crowd :(
-
I miss the old crowd :(
Everyone misses the old crowd, if you don't you're just a big meanie.
-
Even the new crowd misses the old crowd.
-
We need a new old crowd. Mebe it'll help fill that void until the old old crowd returns.
-
I nominate everyone except fisherson for the new old crowd. Yes, that includes Mironic for some strange bizzare fantasy reason.

Why blanket? I don't even think he/she/it (I really don't know...) has been on for a long while, excluding the downtime period.
Oh, and since this is the first time I've posted here, bai's Gemini! :(
-
Yeah, if we for some reason listen to the potentially non-existent Archem and his insane reasoning about a new old crowd, there will be no "everyone x". Specific names must be make known.
-
I've been here for like a year.....

That's a little harsh, especially considering your questionable choice of words. =P
-
What people consider to be the old crowd differs from person to person pending on joining time.
I consider the 'old crowd' to be a time when Ace, Linkforce, Mr. Mister, Rev, and Razor were much more active than they are now and Warxe and Drace still posted frequently.
-
I wonder what Reain's doing right now. lil' elfy ****er...
Anyway

It's always sad to see someone I never knew in my life say their final farewells.
Life unfortunately does (eventually) override all the important things in life like forums and chat, video games.. even porn addictions.
Farewell anyway :bend:

...okay...
