Bye

Rynn

So I actually quit playing like several months ago, but I figured I'd officially close the door.

I won't bother mentioning names because I can guarantee I would forget someone important and then I'd end up either spamming edits or just being very discontent that I missed someone. Instead, I'd just like to offer my sincere thanks to anyone who made my, what, seven-eight years or so? of Achaea fun. My deepest apologies to anyone that feels I griefed them or slighted them or otherwise inconvenienced. Now for likely the most interesting part. I was:

Rynn, the racist Xorani Babelonian.

Fiora, the bubbly Arcane Witch of Firethorns.

Nephenee, the stuttering Dawnstrider Assassin.

Vakvyr, the priest that I didn't really RP beyond "rawr ur a enmy smite smite smite".

All characters were really fun because of the people I got to interact with on a regular basis. Quality people across the board. Also, in case anyone remembers that thread a while back where all four of the above were mentioned, I really was the god of mid tier combat. Har har har. Speaking of, I think combat is what ended up turning me off to Achaea for good. It was a love-hate relationship for me. Absolutely adored the complexity of the fighting and the aesthetics (sylvan kill messages so good) but absolutely abhorred the coding and money required to just get into it, let alone be top tier. The rage/bitterness just became too much, and I could never force myself to just not fight. Or bash for that matter. I always ended up in the arena or raiding. It was impossible for me to avoid it.

Still, the good outweighed the bad, and I don't regret my time in Achaea. Last thing: Sorry, Ovid and co. You guys caught me at a very vulnerable time in my life and I let the ganks get to me way more than I should have and I held onto the grudge far longer than I should have.

Will continue to miss you something terrible, but I'm so glad that you're moving on to bigger and better things. It was an honour to have you as my text-daughter. 

Mishgul

Will miss you, but I still hate you for causing drama in my relationships with Malifuus and Deridius >(

Hope you live a good life.

Tanris

Good luck, man. Was fun.

Trilliana

see ya Rynn. Good luck.

Cooper

I'll always remember 'accidentally' letting it slip that Nephenee was a really hot girl on the one or two ooc clans we were in. Fun times.

Zancrow

Sad to see you go, and surprised to hear who you were. You were my first fight outside of the arena and it made me fall in love with combat Take care irl!

Vaehl

Only one I didn't know was Fiora. RIP Rynn.

It was always fun hanging out. Best wishes man.

Amunet

Ryyyyynnnnnnnnn! To whom will I make racist comments about Xorans now? I was just thinking, the other day, about how much I missed you, because Manifest doesn't fight back nearly so well. I'm sad to see you go (officially), but good luck in whatever your future holds. 

Tahquil

Thank you for the alchemist system, I'll figure out how to use it properly one day.

:O) -honk-

You will be back.  They ALWAYS come back.

Knew about Nephenee. Ilu Rynny. c u on LolOloLOLOLOl.

Tarkanian

I remember fighting Nephenee as a requirement for Mats's pre-order, and you stacked 30+ different affs on me, I think. Also had fun mindlocking Nephenee and trying to radiance her(him?) when she(he?) tried to kill Ashtan denizens.

Rynn was always kind to Tark, so thanks.

Good luck, and godspeed!

Sherazad

Nephenee was cute Take care.

Tecton

Take care, Rynn.

Stay safe, and I hope to see you back in the realms one day!

Jurixe

Thought Fiora was fun, didn't unfortunately interact a lot with Rynn, but knew of him.

The chat we had through forum messages was fun, and it was funny when you and I told each other who we were. :P Good luck with real life.

Skye

Bye Rynn We'll miss your Decakick

Beya

See you in two weeks.

Azuhi

You used to hunt me to hell and back, but I still you. Take care and I hope you will one day come back and be more relaxed about everything happening in Achaea, it's a game after all and should cheer you up instead of stress you.

Kafziel

Although short-lived it was great being your text-son, have fun on the other side.

Chord

Thank you for making a character just to play with me, and sticking with me time and time again. I obviously won't miss you since we interact all the time, but I'll always be grateful that we ended up finding one another here.

EDIT: new forums, how do they work?
