Some things. (OOC)
I've been thinking about a lot of things during my hiatus, such as what I want to do with Robin and how I feel about RPing in general. I've thought long and hard and went back and forth several times about what I want to do.
Some of you that visit jcnooc might be curious as to why I'm not listed as a remaining mod in Raven-mun's post. I declined to stay on as a mod. I've decided that I will not be playing Robin in the capacity that I have in the past. I've had a tendency to get a bit too obsessive about the RP at JCN and about this character, and because of that, he will not remain as a major force at JCN. I'll probably make a statement at jcnooc in a few days about it and lay everything straight, but I'm typing this up for the people who don't frequent that community.
It's been fun playing Robin, but I simply cannot continue to play him as actively as I have in the past. I've enjoyed not having any RP stuff to worry about during my week off. I've actually managed to get things done for a change. I played Robin a bit too actively for a while and it had a negative impact on me, and it took me a while to realize that real life does come before RP.
Robin will continue to wander around Sages and D_M. I will continue playing characters such as dcmorningstar and thatdamnedliche at D_M since they do not require active play. Also, I don't think I'll be leaving JCN entirely. I'm thinking about continuing to play oneeyedmadman, since as a villain, he doesn't need to be around all the time. But nothing is set in stone yet.
JCN peoples that read this, it's been fun. I've really enjoyed playing this character and I'm sort of sad to take him from the community. But I think it's in my best interest, and seeing as there's no shortage of Robins at Sages, I'm sure a new one will take my place. I've talked with Raven-mun, and since both our characters are leaving at the same time (I hate to do it this way, but it's something I've been thinking about for a while. I don't want to continue leading you guys on and making you wonder when I'll come back), her post about Raven leaving should also help to explain why Robin is leaving.
I'll make a post at jcnooc in a few days about this because I don't want to overload that community with messages about characters leaving. Again, maybe I'll keep Slade around, so I might not be leaving entirely.
