A Final Goodbye

Wyrmrest Accord
1

This is the last time I will be posting on the forums, and the last time I will be subscribed to WoW.

This decision has not come easy. I’ve wrestled with this for weeks now, but it came to a head after certain events involving Blizzard as an entity and the future of WoW pushed me over the edge.

I’ve been playing this game since I was eight years old. I’ve seen its ups and downs, stuck through it while millions quit and always found something to keep me active in its community. I had gameplay, lore, RP and the forums to enjoy, and if one wasn’t enough, I had the others. This is no longer the case.

I’ve realized that WoW no longer makes me happy. I have no drive to play any aspect of BfA. I am disappointed and heartbroken over the direction the story has taken, to the point that I can’t enjoy talking about it anymore. My desire to remain consistent in my characters has forced me into positions that result in very little RP, and the RP that I’ve been getting has been lackluster and apathetic from my end. I no longer feel welcome on the forums and, I’d go into detail about my relationship with the forum moderation team, but I don’t wish to have this thread removed.

I want to thank this community and those within it that I can call friends. WoW has been an integral part of my life from a very young age and a huge portion of that is thanks to you people. I’ve made memories here that I will carry with me the rest of my life, learned lessons that will affect every decision I’ll make moving forward, and made friendships that I hope to carry on outside of WoW. I’ll be moving on to greener pastures and funneling my time and energy into building my career, a new passion I’ve discovered for myself. If you don’t already have it, please feel free to add my discord so we can keep in touch: Cannibeans#3192

This isn’t a necessarily happy departure, but one I feel is necessary. I see where the game is headed and want to depart as soon as possible so I can preserve the positive memories, instead of replacing them with ones of disgust at what this game has turned into.

Thank you, everyone.

You’ll be missed, man. The Wyrmrest community is definitely lesser without you around, damn whatever the moderators have to say about you. Hopefully one day WoW’ll be a game that is worth returning to for you, as opposed to how you find it now.

Wow, this actually… really made me sad.

You’re going to be missed, more than you may know, my friend. You’ve been an asset to the community that I aspire to be, and you’ll be fondly remembered. I do hope someday you’ll find Azeroth a place worth returning to. Until then, Jade Serpent watch over you, buddy.

You’ve always been one of the best of us, Cannibal. It’s a shame to see you go, but that’s our loss, not yours. I’m not at the point of leaving yet, but I’m at the point where I entirely understand your decision.

Be safe out there.

I sure hate to see you go, Cannibal, however, there are times when you just have to walk away for a while. I do wish you luck in your future endeavors and sincerely hope that you will be returning to Azeroth one of these days.

It’s gonna be weird not having you as a source, or a person to debate lore with.

Lol, just kidding. Take care man, thanks for all the lore factoids and questions answered. Until next time. Aka’magosh.

When I was first getting into wow, I would browse the forums when I wasn’t home. Specifically, RP and Lore guides. Yours more often than not, Canni. Even if we didn’t talk as much as I’d have liked, you were a huge influence on how I viewed/learned the ins and outs of wow RP. So, thanks, dude. For everything.

Hope to see you in Azeroth one day again,
Targai

(also i have you on discord so hmu if you ever wanna play something)

You’ve been a close friend to me ever since we decided to come together and talk personally, I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge with me, for helping educate other people on whatever subject was at hand and overall, being a shining pillar in our community.

I’m glad I’ll still be able to talk to you on discord, and I can only hope that you go on to enjoy your life to the fullest.

Should you ever change your mind, if WoW ever gets back on track and you miss it, Azeroth will still be here.

Farewell Cannibal, may your blades never dull.

I’ve been contemplating retirement from WoW, myself. Best of luck to you in your future gaming endeavors and, more importantly, in that thing called “real life.”

/salute.
