Hey there old timer, don't forget to take a spare moment to stop by and say 'hi' when the opportunity strikes. You'll be missed.

Good luck out there, it sounds like you've got good things coming your way. :)

Never really got the chance to meet you (I spent the first 12 months of my time in this game thinking you were a female), but I suppose thats because we're on opposite sites of the raider/defender divide. Good luck in the real world ;)

I knew about your incoming super-busy schedule but... I really didn't realize it would have brought you SO far with your plans about lowering your involvement with NS.

I am... speechless, really. With you, I'm losing one of the best NS friends I've ever had. I HONESTLY wish I had the strenght to go on writing something else, but I really miss the ability to detect my keyb through the tears in my eyes. And you probably know I'm not a guy showing his feelings so blatantly over the net.

I will miss you, my friend.

Kandarin,

Thank you for everything that you have done for Nationstates. The game would not have gotten as far as it is today without you. Even myself as an Invader at one point in time I had greatly respected you. I never attempted to take over the Rejected Realms because it would have been disrespectful. It was an honor to play with you throughout the years, and I will always remember the Rejected Realms as "Kandy's Place".

I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors, and I do hope you will come on every once in a while just to say hi.

I find it really hard to imagine the RR without you as its leader, but if this is how it has to be...

I know we've exchanged far too few words during my time on NS (6 years?), but if it hadn't been for you, I probably would not still be playing. I remember being angry after being banjected and deciding to throw in the towel, but got a message from you asking me to join the Rejected Realms Army. I've always been thankful you did that - it got me back into the game with a great group of people. You have always had my utmost respect.

Very sad to see you go, and I wish you all the best in the Real World...

I reckon we should hold an NS wide annual memorial BBQ for Kandy (On top of TRR's usual BBQ's) to remember him by.


Kandy, thanks for everything, and good luck with your future endeavors. :)

Another great player who quits.

Ah, Kandy. You will be missed. :( You've stuck up for so long and surely, The Rejected Realms and all of NS would never be the same without you.

Take care and be a good good boy. :)

Thank you, everyone, for your wishes, your advice and your kindness. :) I'll miss you all too.

For those with an interest in the weirdness factor of not seeing me in the RR...I suppose the easiest and safest way to make the transition would be to just give Nai my main nation. There'd be some confusion initially, but we'd get to keep the same name over the door and she has a sterling track record with these things.
I wish I remember who wrote:Games like Nationstates are like a big cardboard box, and there are two kinds of people in the world. The kind who look at the empty void inside the box and ask "Where the hell is it?" and the kind who jump into the box with their friends and make it into a fort, or a spaceship.

The best of luck in whatever you do in the future, Kandy. Nationstates and TRR will definitely be different without your presence..... and your superb BBQ. :P

Won't that clash with that nation being an Issue Editor, or is that a separate log-on?

The admins would probably remove the nation's Editor status (and give it to NoQ, if they agree to do that).

Kandy, you've always been one of the "touchstones" in the NS world, and most certainly in MY NS world. I'm not good at "good-byes" so as far as I'm concerned, this isn't one. We'll keep in touch other ways.

*hugs*
