Hello everyone,
Yes, I am leaving Warriors United. It was a hard decision for me. Let me explain.
I remember at the very beginning, after I went to warriorcats.com for the first time, I thought, 'Well, that's cool, but I wonder if there are other sites better?' So I went to google and searched Warriors Related Sites and Cats of Midnight came up. So I looked around there, and although I didn't know what to do there, I was stunned by the magnificent skin, so I joined and made a bio.
Days went by with no response to my bio. One day I finally called out in the cbox for an admin to accept it, and someone told me about Dessie's new site, Warriors United. It was a lot of fun and way more active, they said. So I went there.
And it was active, and it was fun! I joined and after a week or so, learned the ropes and started to make new friends! It was really fun, but started taking up more and more of my time. I started wondering, why had I let it be this way? Had I let it take over my life? I found myself downstairs every day, avidly RPing in a world that I knew didn't exist.
I always thought, well, I could stop if I wanted to. It's no big deal. I carefully avoided thoughts of quitting. But things were getting worse. My grades were not as good as they should be because I was down here instead of studying adequately. I found myself making excuses not to go outside with my friends. My mom's trust in me started to fail.
And when I would edit my profile lately, I have found that I was wondering more and more whether I should press delete instead of modify.
Finally, last night, I came to a decision. I can't keep this up anymore, I just can't. It's taking away from my real-world life. And my real-world life is what matters most. Not RPing. So I will delete my account tomorrow, sometime in the morning, after you can say your good-byes. If it makes you feel better, I have little doubt that I will come back, but there will be no talking me out of it.
I joined August 28, 2005. I've been a member for about 10 months.
Now I have some things to say to particular members:
Kash: KASHYYYYYYYYY I'm gonna miss you so much, but we still have IM! So I won't lose contact with you or anything! (and if I do, heads will roll!!!!) *huggles until you die*
Goldy: *sobs* I'm gonna miss you too!!!!!!!!!!!!! But as with Kash, there's always IM! I luv ya girl, and don't forget me! *huggles even harder* I wish Leopardpaw could've become a warrior, because then she could've had kits w/ Firestorm!!!!! If and when she does, name one Sunsetkit for me! (well you don't have to but I always wanted one of their kits to be named Sunsetkit!)
Dessie: Dessie! Awwwwwwwww........ *cries some more* *huggles tightly* Thanks for being the most awesomest admin in the entire world! I LUFFLES YOU TO DEATH (stole Froggy's word... aw...)
Sunny: Oh Sunny, I'm gonna miss you too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But you have my e-mail now! And I expect you to e-mail me. *huggles, AGAIN*
Cindy: Awwwww I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're the coolest, and I'm gonna miss you forever and ever!!!!!!!!!!! I PMed my e-mail addresses to you, though, so I fully expect an e-mail within the week! ;D
Cookie: You are the coolest person ever! I'm gonna miss Bearfrost, and so is Spiritpaw, I hope he doesn't go into a state of even deeper depression after he finds out Spiritpaw has been flattened on the Thunderpath.... *superhuggietackleglomps* You're better at sarcasm then me... =*( Anyway, you have my e-mail so USE IT!
Marly-kins: Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Marlyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frostflower will miss Oakheart, and I will miss you. FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER!!!!...... But you have my e-mail now, so use it! I fully expect an e-mail right after you read this.
Mysti: I looooooooooooooove you!......... YOU ARE THE BEST RPer EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEVER!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll miss you soooooo much, but I'll e-mail you, and tell you MY other e-mails, so don't you worry! I'll miss Amberleaf, one of Firestorm's best friends!
Silver: You've got my e-mail, I'll talk to you on MSN! <3333333333333333333333 you forever!
Froggy: I'll take your word, just once more: I LUFFLES YOU TO DEATH, YOU LITTLE STINKER! *supertacklehuggieglomps*
Seasle: heyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! I'm gonna miss you too!!!!! And your characters, especially Seacross, the little minx! *huggles tightly*
Midnight: You are so cool, and I love you and all your characters! I'll miss you forever and ever, but don't worry, I'll be on occasionally, just checking in and whatnot... *hugglesqueeze*
Streamy: Well I guess Leopardpaw's all yours... erm... Lunarpelt's!... But remember, Firestorm's in StarClan... WATCHING....
Thornie: I didn't get to know you very well, but I'll miss you all the same, you were nice and you are a great RPer!
Crescenty: Like Thornie, I didn't get to know you very well, but I luv your character and I'll miss you lots!!
Swifty: I'll miss you dearly just like I'll miss everyone else, but this is for the best! xD *huggles tight*
Venomyy: Look! I spelled your name with two 'y's! I'll miss you, luv, don't you forget me!
If you didn't get my e-mail address, I'm not planning to give it to you and/or you already have it. Here's what I want with my characters:
Firestorm and Frostflower have been flattened on the Thunderpath. Dessie and Sunny, if you want, you can announce it to the your Clans. Oh yeah, Spiritpaw was flattened as well, and Goldy you can tell WindClan about it or at least Bearfrost.
Icewind has simply left the forest, as had Jade. Goldy, make Adorito do whatever he wants, and Thornie, please don't announce it to ShadowClan. He'll simply go unnoticed, that's the way he'd've wanted to go.
I'll be posting all this, probably in one post.
And as I've said in good-byes, I'll be stopping by every once in a while to check in, see how everyone's doing and whatnot. If I've missed anyone in good-byes, then sorry, but I'll miss you all! There is absolutely no one here who I wouldn't miss!
Love you and miss you forever,
Stormy
