Hi All
First of all sorry... I have been absent for way too long. I would like to explain myself:
As you may know I was on a holiday and had no internet. Well it didn't last this long. When I got home I was in a minor accident where I got a concusion which left me unable to do anything on the computer for quite a while. I was not able to read or do anything and when I finally got better work had piled up and it was a pretty busy time for me.
I sort of left this site in the background and the longer I waited the harder it was for me to come back, not only to the site but also to the game. I have spent so much time on this site for the last 3 and a half years and I think I had burnt out a bit. This is no excuse... I should have at least told you what was happening and for this I am sorry and want to apologize. I guess I left you all hanging in a bad way.
I know there are tons of stuff to get done and I will try to do as much as possible in the comming days and weeks and see if I can get the site back to what it was.
I hope you will all forgive me. I know that this is not the way to repay you all for being a part of the site.
Also thanks to all the people who have supported and kept the site running while I have been away. You know who you are. |

Yikes! I know how that returning stuff goes, I nearly quit for good back in 1.0 when we had that forced break due to the Earthquake/Tsunami shutdown. I hope you're back to 100% after that accident (referring to your RL health, not game stuff). Edited by user Wednesday, April 30, 2014 7:55:44 AM(UTC)

Well first I'm glad you're ok man.. I guess you are. I've had a concussion and it was not pleasant at all and can be very serious. Yeah some of figured something might of happened. I thought either you were taking a multi month long vacation or you got into an accident or worse and I'm glad it was just this.. not making light of it but you know what I mean.
Yeah that's the problem with running a gaming site is if you get burned out you still have the site to maintain lol. Yeah new content came out even for dol and the spammers have been unrelenting especially not being able to ban the ip's.
Sorry for all the pm's but a lot of them were over a span of a few days way back before I knew you were on vacation and then I started worrying about you and if the site was a goner or gonna get shut down lol and random people were pm'ing me, tweeting, etc wondering where you were. I guess you have a lot of twitter followers too so they see that.. like February was last one eh.
Well don't burn yourself out but yeah I guess if the site is going to stay up there is some updating to be done now. Hope you at least had a good vacation. I'm actually happy for you the internet was bad there. Everyone needs a break from the online world for sure.
..lmao I was starting to get pissed cause I thought you just bailed on the site.. then I was like nah man he wouldn't do that.. would he? lol. Well hope your head is doing better. Mine slammed into the concrete long time ago and they had to keep me up.. don't fall asleep if you get one but I had no idea who I was or what was going on for a few days and the headaches lasted.
Glad you're back. You should probably.. even if you aren't going to play right now.. jump on the game to see about your FC and gil and dl the updates.
There really hasn't been much to do here for the mods except post and delete bots.
Welcome back and stay healthy man |

I'm just glad you are ok Kida, that was my #1 concern. Welcome back, Arcanum does have a FC House now as land on Excalibur for Limsa and Grid is extremely limited now. My alt Rand runs it as it is just much more casual now. Methos is with a FC of old friends from XI times. Whenever you have free time go ahead and check it out. I had you in mind deciding the location in Grid next to a waterfall and obviously water :P.
