I'm a little bit busy so I can't really talk much now. With that said and done, I would like to say a few words here... as if I'm leaving for good, but I actually am not. I am just busy, that's all! :P

Anyway, I would like to thank each and every one of you here for the kind words, and for encouraging me throughout, and also for giving NSG a Beacon of Hope when politics have been really harsh.

-----

Some shoutouts, though don't worry if you're not here. I still like you as a friend across the internet.

Farnhamia for making this place lovely, and also for bringing me here every time things get... crazy!

Dres for being supportive, and hey, I really hope that things will go smoothly for your family, especially for your dad! Wishing him well! ^^

Heloin for being a great friend as well, and being an excellent person despite the constant heat from NSG.

Hurdergaryp for also being a nice and understanding dude. I'm sorry I sort of lashed out at you after a misunderstanding.

Blaat for being the Master of Puns, and also for trying to steal my title. Seriously though, you're a cool man. :D

Pax Nerdvana for making a nation based on Transformers, and also a great dude to talk to. Thanks for staying in TET and never going into the wilderness of NSG.

And plenty more people, of course! Thank you once again, and you are all awesome!

You yourself have been very positive.

Yes. Nsg can be toxic at times. I left for a month back in March before coming back earlier this month. I have a love hate relationship with NSG, but I do appreciate it for intellectual discussions

Ahh, yes! You as well! Sorry, I didn't forget, just rushed through that. :P

Jothig, you yourself as well for being positive and helping me out here in TET when I nearly lost it in some other parts of NSG.

Oh yeah.. don't get me wrong, there can be good discussions, but in the case of "Conservative Speaker Attacked at UMKC"... yeah, I avoided that even if the news were tragic. You know that it's going to escalate faster than a rocket-propelled escalator.

And I got into a fight with a person in the last IDT early March which triggered me into leaving for a month which was why I went on a rant in my resignation post last month about how much NSG is an echo chamber, but then, of course, I ended up getting sucked back in, and calmed down.

Plus, reflecting on my actions during my absence helped, and I found a better way to deal with sarcasm.

Yeah, that'll happen on NSG. People will mock. But there are good ways to handle sarcasm. I just try to be a good example and show my disapproval of sarcasm.

Exactly. Also the fact that NSG encourages good faith posting. That, and I put on the teachings of my faith, I try to be a really good example and try to observe this philosophy to the utmost of my abilities.

Sarcasm is an honest man trying to make a living in a dark world. You are the violence inherent in the system.
