GD Lounge # Reforged Shadowlands (Part 1)

Hi all,

I didn’t want to disappear without saying “Goodbye!”

After Mackie’s passing at the end of November, I just have zero interest in WoW anymore. The eternal grind was something that once kept me occupied; the suddenness of Mac’s final sleep has left me shaken and overcome with grief.

My life is short, and I want to do things other than play WoW. It feels like a compulsion these days, instead of something I do for enjoyment. Fear Of Missing Out is coded into every aspect of this game, and it’s high time I decided to miss out.

I wish you all the best in life, and may the adventures of Azeroth ever bring you joy. Remember that there is no such thing as time wasted if you enjoyed yourself.

Farewell!

Farewell!

Just wanna say you’re awesome and you’ll be missed!

I hope for the very best for you cause you’re so nice and great! Without a doubt I can say Mac had the very best life with you as his caretaker! Be safe, stay awesome.

Farewell for now :woman_mage:

We will miss you Wiccan best of luck to you. Have some shaman luck :sweat_drops:

riptide :ocean:

Your an awesome person, Azeroth will be here when you return if you get bored. Taking a break from WoW is good, game burn out happens. If you get really good at any kind of craft or art, you can sell it at good price.

I totally understand, my friend. It has been a true privilege and honor to get to know you. I wish you all the best in life and, if circumstances ever permit, just know the light is always on for you. Your kindness and presence will be sorely missed, indeed.

And most importantly, PLEASE take care of yourself and be safe.

May the roads rise up to meet you,
May the winds be always at your back.
And when life finds you hungry,
May you find a :bear::sandwich: close to hand.

hands Wiccan a big sack of :bear::sandwich: to get him on his journey

If you are looking for something to pour alot of energy try spray paint art.

It’s something I always wanted to do myself when I get into the position to do it. This kind of art can sell at very good price. I would also do it within a closed room with a window since you have pets.

Anyone else suspect that Ansem Seeker of Darkness is Ansem the Wise’s Heartless that dove out of him(leaving behind the lingering shadow to become DiZ) and into Xehanort the same way the Queen of Hearts’ Heartless dove out of her(leaving behind a lingering shadow to become her new Heartless) to fight Xehanort and his friends in Kingdom Hearts Dark Road?

spray painting inside is a terrible idea.
aside from it being very dangerous to use in an enclosed space, it stinks, and the overspray settles on everything.
i’ve got a booth with extraction fan, and still choose to spray outdoors.

now that i’ve accomplished my PSA for the day, let’s get on to the important stuff! :smiley:

I needed to drop this one here, because it’s the bestest christmas show ever.

launches himself at Cyndi to give her a big but very careful hug

It’ll be okay. He needs this time away from WoW to get better. When he comes back, he’ll be as awesome (if not more so) than ever.

gives Cyndi a 'specially made :bear::sandwich: to help her feel better

hugs you carefully

I know. I hate to see Wiccan go too. But this isn’t about us. This is about him and he needs time to heal. I’m sure, at some point, he’ll be back (who can resist your :cookie: or my :bear::sandwich:, after all) and when he does return, it’ll be better than ever.

I’m not sure where I heard it and I know I’m most likely paraphrasing but this isn’t “goodbye”. This is “I’ll see you all soon!” or at least that’s how I’m looking at it. Maybe it came from Frosty the Snowman, now that I think of it?

“He said he is leaving, not just taking a break. He quit Discord too. I can’t even contact him THERE either.”

“It’s okay, it hurts, but that’s life.”

thats what they all say :stuck_out_tongue:

we will hug them so tite it will squeeze the life out!

Let it snow Star trek version, lol.

I melted it down and turned it into some lovely jewelry.

I still need to look into it more, because they use a blow torch of some kind to dry the paint to add other detail so the paint colors don’t blend into each other. I know you would need to wear a special mask while painting, and gloves.

Whatever you do, DON’T delete your account, or you will lose all progress and have to start over from scratch. Be well and stay safe. We’ll miss you. :heart:
