This concerns the
mike__shinoda journal...
Yeah, I know that with all tecnicality these are supposed to hide behind locked posts, but, bowing to conformity, I have at least shoved it behind a cut text.
I am sorry to report, and I know that many of you will be devastated also, that I can no longer work with or wait around for
mike__shinoda to come back from this extended hiatus of his. God knows how long it is since we sat down and had a proper conversation, although I did catch him for a few minutes that night LP were in Paris, but I don't remember when that was and it's not important enough for me to look up. It's nearly 1 month. Which must make it... 2, at least, since he was around full time.
Mike and Joe are in a deep relationship. You may have noticed that, for the past two months, I have been pulling updates out of my ass, waffling and rambling about nothing. And it gets old. I emailed Mona on this subject, asking how we would go about replacing Mike. Basically, I was told that since he hasn't technically broken any rules and since it's not her call, she can't do anything. But it would be for us, as the other members of LP (
chaz_bennington,
brad_delson, and, potentially,
robertbourdon being the active ones, along with, obviously, myself, to replace him the hard way. Pretty much, it comes down to whoever we are RPing with being the active Mike.
So, please take this as official notification that the new Mike Shinoda will be
mike_k_shinoda, here's hoping that he can do the role justice. Because the role deserves someone who will take it seriously. God knows how
mike__shinoda can even begin to claim to when he does this.
Thanks for your time.
[[If you didn't read that, folks, the gist is that
mike_k_shinoda is the NEW LiveJournal Mike Shinoda. If those of you who care would be so kind as to add him over the old Mike (once more, for the record, that is
mike__shinoda), I would be eternally grateful.
Heartfelt thanks, in advance.
"Joe".]]
