Love you, Bill. I’m deeply saddened to hear this news. You and your family will be in my thoughts and my heart.
my Condolences mister Bill
Hello Bill,
I’m sorry to hear the news. You and your loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers.
My deepest condolences, Bill.
Thanks so much to all of you for thinking of me and providing me with this overwhelming love and kindness! I really do love y’all - ALL of you too many to mention, but you know who you are.
I spent all this day digging out pictures and uploading them for the “Celebration Of Life”, and as I looked at them through swimming eyes, I thought to myself - “She sure was pretty. I hope I told her that enough, as well as telling her how much I love her.”
But now, to take my mind off my sorrow a little, I want to see if I can find my pal Jonãs and see what we can do to catch him up a bit in the game. If you see us, please take time to say hello.
Thanks again for everything!
Bill
we are comming up on 20 years of wow!
and it amazes me what a journey it’s been and the amazing folks and friends i got to know i started back in jan 2007 after i fixed an old broken pc for my self i was rocking 11fps lol.
and my first guild (the Whiskey Rebellion) i will never forget thoses guys as well as hanging with icons like totalbiscuit and big red kitty just alot of good times
It’s been great to know you too, Nori! And you as well, Phara! And Nightsong, Zykera, Channyn and Vyanta. Y’all don’t know how much it means to me to be able to tell you that.
I know what you mean @Norinila
This year we re-joined a guild where we made some real life friends as they came back and started playing again. It’s been so good to reconnect with them, and we even started raiding again! So that’s been…good, I think.
20 years of WoW…and Cer and I were here since the beginning. It’s when we really solidified our relationship, and two years later, we’d be “together” together. And we’re still going strong. smiles
It’s been amazing making new friends here, too–all thanks to @Jonãs of course. I’m so glad that through him I’ve met so many more of you wonderful people–even if it’s just online. Your continued presences here are a wonderful thing, and I’m glad to be a part of this community.
So thanks, you guys! Here’s to 20 more years–or at least to us keeping in touch for many years to come.
the little bits i have shared with some of you of whats been going on with me i have a condition Meniere’s disease its been sumthing i could deal with up in tell now and these days it has me very wrecked and drained don’t have the energy to do much of anything
i even hade to give up wow and go to other games i can make progress on with the short time i manege it
so yeah i do miss my wow comrades a lot
and there is a nether hafe to this story. one i don’t want to get to it much i never wanted the info about me to be out there was something i wanted to keep private and i share this with someone i thought was my frind at the time only for them to tern around and post about it in a mocking and humiliating way they have sence deleted there old account and are now on a new one to hide what they hide done
so just please be careful who who let in your circle around here
@Norinila
I’m so sorry that someone did that to you. People can be real jerks sometimes, but not everyone is like that–thankfully. Taking someone else’s pain and making fun of it is pretty much the lowest of the low in my book. It shows a lack of self-worth in the other person (i.e. they don’t think very highly of themselves; so, they have to put others down in order to make themselves feel better) if they’re willing to do that, too. So don’t trouble yourself on that person’s account. Hopefully they’ll grow up and learn some humility, and I expect they are probably sorry for what they did–even if they will never admit it.
I imagine you’re doing your best to manage it with medications and the like, but it can’t be easy, and I’m sorry for that. We’ll still be here for you, though, and I’m glad you’ve stuck around just to chat with us.
What other games are you playing in the mean time? What are you finding enjoyable?
gw2 and Diablo 4 more single player frindly and can get alot done in a short time in those
Hey, everyone.
Just an update from @Jonãs and Bill.
Bill has recently had to move out of the apartment where he used to live as it was too much space for just one person. And while Bill is working on getting a new apartment, he’s moved in with some family for the time being. It will take him a bit to get himself situated and his computer set up; so, please be patient with him. He’ll get back to us as soon as he can.
In the meantime, please send him good wishes on his new living arrangements and luck on finding a good apartment of his own soon!
Thanks, all! Talk again soon. I hope you all had a wonderful, fun, and sacred Halloween and Dia de Los Muertos/All Sant’s.
~~ Channyn
Wishing him the best in this new phase in life, and I hope he finds a great apartment.
Thanks for keeping us posted.
Hey everyone, and thanks for the good wishes. Unfortunately, apartments (affordable ones, that is) are hard to come by in Carrollton, GA. at the moment, so I am still staying with family.
There’s a saying about fish going bad which I hope doesn’t apply with them in my case
They knew how much I would miss y’all, so I at least have internet here, as well as some premium channels, so I can watch television and keep myself occupied.
I have been catching up with “Ol’ Jonãs” and one of my alts Waldteufel is in the same guild as my friend Channyn, so I have been working on getting him levelled up from 70.
One thing I have noticed (and if you’re near my age, I am wondering if you have noticed it as well), is that the longer one is away from WoW the harder it is to remember all the “moves” and “strategy” when one does comes back. I’m about to hit 75 years of age, so that might have a little something to do with it.
Anyway, just checking in – letting y’all know that I still love everyone very much, and to ask ,if you have time, for a note or two. Being suddenly single hasn’t been a picnic, so I consider every little note as precious as gold. I know if we lived closer together, that there are many of you whom I would like to meet for coffee and some nice conversation, but this is all I have right now, so it will have to do.
Thank you for reading and more importantly, for caring. It means the world to me to have y’all on the other side of this screen.
I send my love
Bill
It’s good to hear from you, Jonas. I know life can’t be very easy for you right now, but I’m glad to hear that even though you are staying with family, you have a few comforts like like your characters in WoW and some—hopefully good—tv entertainment.
I’ve been “fair to middling” though sometimes worse and occasionally better. I just keep trying to keep one foot in front of the other and keep my head above water. I’m just treading water mostly, but surviving and at least being okay enough, well, that’s not the worst.
We love you Bill and Jonas.
Phara! Right back atcha, dear friend! It’s good to hear from you too, and my thoughts are that your feet will soon find “solid ground” where you won’t have to tread water too much longer.
Right now, I think the best any of us can do is going to have to suffice. When one steps back and looks at the “whole picture”, it’s not hard to see why we need our friends to be close - even if it’s just a few words of encouragement. Those too have a “warmth” of their own. Sending you warm hugs and love, my friend.
Bill and "Ol’ Jonãs"
Hey, Jonas
Nice to hear you are able to be more active and are engaging again with your in-game people as well as on the forums.
I’m doing alright, though I’m playing Elder Scrolls Online, ESO, these days. Due to the way my brain is some days are better, or worse, than others. Overall though I’d say I’m doing well.
May your days be many and filled with the happiness you need.
Nightsong
Nightsong, thanks for writing. I tried Elder Scrolls a couple of years ago, but I must not have liked playing it, because if I had, I would have added it to my game collection (of which WoW heads the list).
Glad to know you’re doing well, my friend, and I hope your holidays will be happy ones.
Thanks again for the note!
Bill
