Enough is enough. I quit.
 
I am sick and tired of playing this internet persona. I came here to play Diablo II, but just to keep up with the evolution and maturation of this forum I've had to adopt a pseudo-intellectual demeanor. I've had to learn about science, I've had to curtail my grammatical mistakes, I've had to argue against people I don't necessarily disagree with in the first place just to maintain my persona. Due to the pseudo-intellectual persona I undertook, I've had to espouse atheistic beliefs which I don't adhere to. Playing this persona has caused many ethical dilemmas for me. I am sick of this stress. The only way I can think of to get rid of that stress is to get away from this place.

That said, I quit. Good riddance.

Chruser 2008-04-01 12:32 AM

That's unfortunate; I enjoy reading your threads. What is it about socities and communities that prevents us from suddenly taking a change on stances? Trepidation from variability?

If you change your mind, we'll still be around.

Vault Dweller 2008-04-01 01:51 AM

That's a damn shame. Undoubtedly one of my favorite posters here.

Willkillforfood 2008-04-01 04:32 AM

I'm hoping you just adopt a more genuine stance reflecting your true feelings and stick around.

Titusfied 2008-04-01 06:28 AM

I can't imagine he's serious? I mean, who tries to conform to an internet community, then has this drastic of an effect in real life? There are definitely deeper seeded problems if you posting here over the years has caused you stress...

Hopefully it's just a joke, because MJ was a good, long-term poster here at Teh Zeloran.

This really hit home for me. Undoubtedly, you're right. The internet facade is certainly tiring, and I don't even have the time to spend on it anymore. Playing a "character" was fun when I was 15, but now it seems trite... I'm out.

lolwut

WetWired 2008-04-01 07:17 AM

Heh, that's why I gave it up after about a year.
Unless you're really D3V behind that mask, I doubt anyone cares; there's no reason to leave over it.

:rolleyes:

HandOfHeaven 2008-04-01 12:18 PM

Hmmm...

Thanatos 2008-04-01 12:23 PM

Yay for my post getting deleted!

KagomJack 2008-04-01 12:46 PM

-Sigh-

I guess the jig is up, isn't it? I too am tired of pretending. It's time you all knew the truth...the real truth. I too have been playing a character. I have been feigning this gay furry bit in hopes of entertaining people I don't even know, just to boost my confidence. In reality I am thirty-three years of age and I have been happily married to my wife, Stacy, for seven years. I now must make my leave.

By the way, MJ, your April Fool's is better 'n any I could do. :(

Sovereign 2008-04-01 02:00 PM

I'm very sorry to hear that. I'll pray that nothing happens to you in light of these recent events.

Chruser 2008-04-01 02:51 PM

Don't worry, we'll just clone them and insert the appropriate mental information with MemLink. Mjordan2nd posted the solution last year.

kyeruu 2008-04-01 05:18 PM

you're leaving? well, i can't say goodridance in any case, regardless how bad you bashed me, i still find it sad you're leaving :P

Demosthenes 2008-04-01 05:32 PM

Well, for those that haven't got it yet, April Fools! :)

Raziel 2008-04-01 05:37 PM

Yeah, that was a pretty entertaining April Fool's circle-jerk you guys had going there.

Sovereign 2008-04-01 05:52 PM

You mean you lied about leaving?

:angry:

Asamin 2008-04-01 06:08 PM

I must admit, it was really funny to read all the things about how you guys were so sad. It was just way out there. April 1. Someone who loves it here says they are going to leave. I can't believe you guys fell for that!

KagomJack 2008-04-01 06:09 PM

You racist bastard.

Asamin 2008-04-01 06:14 PM

Who me? I didn't say anything racist. did I?

KagomJack 2008-04-01 07:26 PM

Look at who that was in response to, Asamin. :)

HandOfHeaven 2008-04-01 09:45 PM

Wow, that is severely racist. April Fool's?

KagomJack 2008-04-01 10:04 PM

Fool's of the April it was not :|

Sovereign 2008-04-01 10:14 PM

Perhaps I shoud have picked a firing squad or gas chamber as a means of execution.

Tyrannicide 2008-04-01 11:17 PM

lol what?

So, he serious or what?

Whatever...*yawn*

Vault Dweller 2008-04-01 11:29 PM

I didn't realize what day it was until I got to work. Now I feel like some kind of sentimental ass. Thanks MJ.

KagomJack 2008-04-02 12:47 AM

Much better =)

Mantralord 2008-04-02 11:37 AM

That was just the convenient button to click. I don't always just mean it that way. I was more just wondering why no one else picked up on the joke.

KagomJack 2008-04-02 03:54 PM

Oh, then.

It is too late. Pandora's box has been opened.

HandOfHeaven 2008-04-02 05:53 PM

Uh oh. Run for your life!

Asamin 2008-04-02 05:55 PM

This could end up really bad.....

KagomJack 2008-04-02 06:07 PM

OMG bees!

Chruser 2008-04-20 09:07 AM

Note that GravitonSurge's last post was in this thread.

Well whatever, you sounded too exaggerated to be leaving, and that speech was so boring I just skipped to the part where u said u were quitting.

HandOfHeaven 2008-04-20 10:18 AM

Interesting. He was dead serious.

Wait what? Are u talking about MJ or Kajomjack? 'Cause they both were kiddng...

HandOfHeaven 2008-04-20 12:02 PM

I was referring to Chruser's post about GravitonSurge. He was serious about leaving, or at least leaving for awhile.

In the future, pay attention to which posts people reply to. That would've stopped you from looking like a fool.
