OOC: Is this goodbye . . .?

Jun 07, 2002 14:38

((I wrestled with posting this for a long while now, but I dunno. I'm thinking of dropping out of the MESPT game. I'm not enjoying it anymore. I usually skip most every post and only read a very few. None of my puppets have anything to do and all the storylines that crop up are either uninteresting or over before I get to them [or I can't keep ( Read more... )

I would miss you if you went. You're very funny, and your Frodo is really well fleshed. Perhaps let someone babysit so you can take a break, then come back? I'd hate to see one bad week in game drive off one of the more memorable characters.

dont worry dude. i said the same thing today in my post. its just like, people are starting to clique up, and its more of a popularity contest than a game. it used to be fun, but now its not, but i am going to stick around a bit to see what happens.

Van, I'm a bit torn. I mean, on one hand, if you're not having fun you shouldn't play. But I know we've all had some kickin' times in the past, and I'd hate to see you go. I've had some times, especially recently, when I've been so bored with MESPT and my characters that I can't even force myself to post. But I guess the fun comes and goes, and most of the time I enjoy it if I make an effort.

So, what I am (very clumsily) trying to say is, if you really hate it here, then don't play. It's silly to do something you don't enjoy. But if you think there's a chance you might want to play in the future, don't be so quick to give it up. You only get as much out of roleplay as you put in; though that's true about most things.

If you do decide to go, I will miss you like fuck.

(I'm not so sure about the cliques, though. We all have our friends, and we all have people we'd rather do without... But I think I've seen a decline in cliquishness in the past few weeks that I've found way enjoyable.)

Love?

:hugs:
I have to say I'd really miss you if you left. You're one of the best and most considerate players here and all of your characters are distinct and hugely enjoyable. Rosie has always been one of my favourites:)

That said, you've got to do what you feel is best for yourself. If you don't feel like posting, take a break and see if a bit of time away helps your muse return:) I know the OOC squabbles can be unpleasant, but I've found that ignoring these things entirely has made MESPT much more enjoyable for me. It is after all, just a game and any for any angst/nastiness to come out of it is just absurd. Most importantly, though, you have to do what's right for you. I hope you decide to stay, but if you feel your time here has run its course, then that's OK too:)
