Why After Over 10 Years I Quit

Well… that was definitely something.

He probably is counting from his previous accounts that he previously quit forever on as well.

I felt the same when my grandma died too, I feel like i could’ve spent way more time with her, I see her regularly in my dreams, but I know she was more than happy to see me twice a week and talk for hours.
Do not feel so bad for things you can’t change now, be a better person in the future, learn from everything you think you did wrong.

And regarding the main issue of your post, you should’ve started streaming just for fun, chatting with viewers even if its only one random guy. Don’t chase streamers, don’t kiss anyone foot, do it for fun and don’t let your real life to fall apart while you chase a dream which lies on a probability, a non reliable bussiness.
I have a big youtube music channel (900k subs) and for 4 years I couldn’t get past 10k, but I didn’t care, I just kept uploading bs without getting any money.

If you read the entire post you actually get an achieve

Very mature and poignant self-reflection. I hope I can be as introspective.

while we all will lose someone, it’s sad to read about your mom passing amidst the frustration.

I think you’re new-found appreciation for time made and enjoyed on your own “time” is an amazingly liberating feeling.

just like you so many people quit, people who used to say “can I has your gold”? like you, at the end everyone is quitting there is no denying on it.

Ok, I didn’t read it at first, and I’m sorry about the lose of your mom. I lost mine in 2016, so I feel for you, and I certainly understand how the negativity around here can be draining.

Be well in your life. :heart:

Sorry man, but honestly laughed at that.

It’s the internet. You can have all your reasons, but this game and this company are just… plain old people. Whatever you have here you will find anywhere else. In the end, you have to play for yourself and ask YOURSELF if you enjoy what you’re doing. The people who find the most success are the ones who already enjoy what they are doing and are willing to put in the time and get past the failure… but also it’s realizing when its time to move on. I have no idea who you are and most streamers I do know are the absolute top of the top players skill wise. I mean, even the best players in this game still only pull in a couple 100 viewers at best.

I completely understand the loss of a loved one, especially a mother. My mom died 1 year ago as of Feb 12th. I spent 5 days by her and it crushed reality as I knew it. I wish I had done 1000 things different leading up to her death. Even now, I feel like I still play wow just to help cope and get my thoughts off the… everything.

It’s frustrating that I to will likely quit wow on a low note. My only take away from years of game played time are the few friends I have. To have all that time add up to nothing sucks. But, I can take solace in the fact that that is true of most things in life.

Anywho, I wouldn’t put any blame on the community, or even yourself. It seems, in the end, you haven’t been enjoying yourself and that’s really all it comes down to.

I am sorry for your loss, however you have taken your negative experiences and directed them to the WoW community rather than to the people that have wronged you.

There are plenty of WoW streamers and WoW youtubers out there who have channels that aren’t filled with hatred. The majority of the comments I’ve seen are actually quite positive.

I think it’s understandable why people having a hard time taking you seriously when you were trying to legally change your name. I hope you’re able to learn from your experiences and come back to streaming WoW and if not, all the best.

Sometimes I forget that these days people want Twitter levels of simplicity sorry

Zinrockin… You quit everything every other week then immediately come back to it and announce it to the world, not to mention you constantly play the victim card instead of taking accountability for your actions.

You say things like–

Which I guarantee is exaggerated and most likely them trying to tell you “Don’t change your name to that, its a bad choice you will probably regret.” and instead you try to warp it to be more grandiose as well as making you to be the victim. Which also leads to the fact that you actively lie and exaggerate such as with your post in the CS forums not to long ago where you were even called out on your lying.

You do this all the time, in fact the last time you did this you stated you were leaving for a “better” community then specifically said you were going to play “League of Legends” of all places. Then there is when you left the MVP program because it didn’t further your streaming career and you thought you deserved more as you posted on your own twitter.

You seek attention but never stop to think about how you come off, you would do well to maybe stop blaming everyone else for where you are/the experience you have and stop to think “Maybe its me?”

The only one keeping you from that position is yourself. You have an ego and come off as someone acting like a big shot all the time and when you don’t get the praise and attention you seek, when people are not falling down at your feet or call you out for your actions you IMMEDIATELY play the victim.

Pretty sure you mean unfathomable though ironically this statement is accurate. Guess what? EVERY COMMUNITY IS LIKE THIS! It’s not a WoW exclusive thing, every community when you actually get involved has a negative side dude. Good golly man.

Its not. Not even close.

Bologna, you are probably watching this thread like a hawk because unlike your twitters you are actually getting attention here. This is the third time, at least, since I have come to know you that you have “quit” WoW let alone anything else.

Dude, honestly, I hope you do quit WoW and the internet for a while and maybe focus on working on yourself. There is no shame in getting help for yourself either because honestly its not healthy.

Well on the bright side, you quitting removes one toxic individual from said community.

Stream because it makes you happy and you enjoy it, not because it could make you famous or become your career. Once you get past that hurdle, streaming becomes fun again.

I stream to a whopping single digit count of people. And you know what? Three years and I’m still not tired of it because I do it for the fun of it. I interact with folks but if no one is talking, I just jam out singing to tunes.

I don’t know who you are, but the attitude you displayed in this post gives me a reason to expect your stream to not be a pleasant place to be. You aren’t owed a thing.

Sorry about your mom, however.

Low. Energy. The GD community expects a modicum of effort to be put into trolling posts. Do better.

I am getting a feeling that all of this has to do with someone who though they could manipulate their way to Twitch stardom and is now angry that they never could get it off the ground.

This guy has mental health issues going on and really needs to seek out professional help. You guys should have responded more along those lines, instead of fulfilling his prophecy that this community is ‘unsupportive’ and ‘negative.’ I mean, imagine how you’d feel if he did something stupid after this topic.

Don’t really care when people quit. However, why do people always ask for the person account or gold. Are they just trying to troll or do they seriously think they would actually be given anything from the person leaving.
