Some people who were special to me have decided to leave this world of YCM, and I commemorate this page to those wonderful people. I mourn their loss, but I celebrate their life here as well. I miss them sorely though, and I wish I would see them again... maybe one day....

*sits in the middle of YCM with a microphone in hand, arms resting on my knees and staring around with a slightly heavy expression*
....My name is Matt Bahamut. And I have something to say, that some of you may have suspected has been coming for a while now.... (You might want to make yourselves comfortable at this point, because as usual with me, this is quite long.)
...I’ve been here for a long time. I joined nearly three years ago - initially as most people do - for the card-maker, and first posted here on the forum to display a frankly terrible fusion based archetype based on Dante and the seven sins. (Wow, feels like forever ago now.) Since then I have drifted from section to section; realistic cards, contests, clubs and organizations, multimedia, and settling largely for written cards near the end. And every so often I’ve made a contribution to those sections. Maybe.
Then we come to the Creative Writing section *wry smile*. This is where I’ve felt most at home here. This is where I discovered some stories that captivated me, and because of them that one day I decided on a complete whim that it might be fun to try and write one of my own. It’s where I discovered I could do something that I had never done before. This whim of an idea - the story and the characters that would play it out - suddenly exploded in my head and into life, and a piece of fun fiction that I honestly didn’t really expect to last five minutes suddenly turned into a full scale fantasy adventure. And people liked it. And they followed it and wanted more. And I wanted more. The lives of these characters I’d created were now suddenly captivating and important to me, moving me forward to find out for myself where they would be at the end I had never even thought about, and I felt everything they went through as I imagined they did. And so did the people reading it. The lives of those characters: Juruo, Hikari, Dravir, Sabin, Yuma, Melanc... and Erin..., they made people smile and gasp and cry. The connection and the impact those characters made was just... I can only say it was incredible, and I achieved something that apparently not many people here have ever done; in that the story I’d dreamed up, on a half-cooked whim, actually reached a proper ending. And then unbelievably, I did it again with another story. The heavily planned Yu-Gi-Oh! 24; a totally different approach to the ‘made up as it went along’ of Armageddon, came out. That planning made it less of a personal adventure, without the same feel of discovery, but it did have its plus points of creating a complex plot with many characters. Overly complex, but never mind. It was still for the large part enjoyable and was liked by lots more people; and the lives and trials of the guys in that story hopefully also touched a few people and gave them a good story. It was a lot harder that time, as people are aware, but again the story did, eventually, reach the completion that I had set out for and met the goals I’d set. But it was very, very strenuous to do.
Which brings me onto the dark side of me, my persona, and my time here. All those things I’ve done on this site, they were in the early stages. More recently, over the last 8-12 months, the main thing I’ve been doing here is spamming the forum status bar with hysterical, maniacal rage and depression. Which has quite rightly got on a lot of people’s nerves, and upset others. A lot of people have tried to help, and I appreciate the efforts they made, but I can’t honestly say I’ve helped myself. Every set back in my life has sent me scurrying back into a ball in the corner into a shaking, screaming wreck, and now the first thing I do when I get into this state of despair... is come on YCM to vent and lash out. And... Well I’ve been doing this for so long now that now it feels like... well I can only describe it as that when I come on YCM, because of the misery and anger I’ve associated with it, I have created a toxic environment in my head that is connected to this place. This is where I have come to rage and cry and scream and nothing else, so when I docome on feeling good and just to read or talk to people, I immediately feel down just by being here. I have done a lot of stupid things wrong here, I have nothing more positive to contribute to this site, and I’ve created this dark place in my head... So now, for my own sanity, I have to leave.
I need to go away to try and break this cycle I’ve got myself stuck in by continually coming here to indulge in this selfish and crippling depression, and focus on other things in my life. I want to go away and dedicate more to my martial arts training and getting fit again. To focus more on family and friends around me, and also the relationship I hope to develop with a remarkable person I’ve met which, unless I can sort myself out, is not going to happen. And to try and break out of this plaguing depression. Again.
I’m not saying that I’m never going to come back here. I would love, absolutely love, to come back here one day in a clear state of mind and in a happy and stable place in my life again. Maybe for just a flying visit over Christmas to see how everyone is doing or something like that. But it would only be a visit. I’ll never be a major member of this place long term again, and as long as I’m still vulnerable to the demons in my head, I’m not coming back. I don’t know what will happen after this. I might pop back in a few months, a year, or I might never be seen here again if I don’t recover. If that’s the way it will be, that’s unfortunately how it will be. I hope I come back, as it will mean I have got better...
Either way, I just want to say that.... despite all that I’ve turned this place in my head into in the end, I am glad I found this place. Here I have had a lot of fun at times, and been involved in some good things. Here I’ve discovered new parts of myself, as well as some amazing people who I have met. People who have guided me when I needed help, looked after me or kept me company when I was down, or have made me smile and laugh when I was up. There have been a lot of people I’ve met here who have been amazing, and some of them have become very special to me and will stay with me forever. I want to pay tributes to those people, and let them know how important they are and how much they mean:
Well, I think that covers everything, in what has taken me hours to write and is probably the longest post in this section ever. But I felt I needed it because I wanted to do this and myself justice by getting everything out, because this place has been a major part of my life. I know that probably sounds silly, but it has. The experiences gone through here and the people I’ve met, good and bad, they’ve been pretty incredible. Writing this leaving speech as it’s suddenly turned out as I read it back has made me feel so emotional because I’ve not going to have these good feelings anymore that I’ve had here. Yeah I could have rant and highlight the bad things about this place because there’s a bloody ton of things I could and have ranted about, but I don’t really want to do that. It wouldn’t be right, since really, most of things here have been more than I could have expected when I started. In the same way it doesn’t feel completely right to make my last post here. I will do that in the place I’ve felt most bipolicly low and high, in my home section in Creative Writing. To respond to all the nice comments that I’ve received since I first announced to readers of my fiction that I was leaving, and close the thread - and my time here off. I just wanted this to show my feelings for all of you, and show how I really feel. To apologise for all the awful crap I’ve spouted and that I’ve done. To let everyone know that I have enjoyed being here, and hope for the most part that I’ve done alright as a proud and humble member of this forum.
I love you all. And I’m sorry. But everything must pass in the end, and my time has long since passed. Now I need to go.
Goodbye.

Sad to see you go, my friend.[/quote][quote name="Jord200" post="6163674" timestamp="1363562605"]
You will be missed. Best of wishes. Hope you feel better. Good luck with that potential relationship. If we don't hear from you again, great knowing you.[/quote][quote name="Overlord Barty" post="6163679" timestamp="1363563175"]
Firstly thank ye. Twas my pleasure knowing you after all, even through the bad and the good, it's kinda been a leveler on both our parts methinks.
Secondly. You should know you won't get forgotten. Partially because of all the good you've done for the site (I mean you pracitcally kept a section alive), partially because of all the friends you've made. And partially because I intend to steal your avatars as things go along. Mostly the first two. In fact definitely the first two.
Thirdly, I'm kinda bad at goodbyes. Particularly to people that have mattered to me. I can say that you are probably the reason I've actually stuck around here, and that it'll be weird without you here. But I understand how important sorting out your life is right now, and I can only wish you the best of luck, and hope for your happiness and success. Because I know that you deserve a great life. And that one day you'll manage to find one. And I think everyone here shares that feeling.
If we see you again, we'll see ya. And if not well... It was a pleasure knowing you. And no being to much of an idiot now.[/quote][quote name="~Renegade~" post="6163697" timestamp="1363565425"]
Matt, I don't think I really have the right to call you a friend, and even though you'll probably never read this, there is something I want to say to you...actually a few things I want to say to you.
The first, is that I am sorry. I honestly didn't realize that you were in such a bad way, and there were many times that I teased you in your status bars. This has made me realize that sometimes it isn't a joking matter and that I don't know everything about anyone. I know I probably caused you a little bit of grief, but I hope that you know my points were made all in fun and I am sorry if what I said upset you.
The second, is a moment of recognization. I want you to know that even if I didn't ever comment on what you wrote, I would always pop in and read a few chapters. I want you to know that you are an amazing artist...because that's what we writers are...we're artists. And your pieces are amazing. I want ever forget the first thing of yours that I read. A short story taking place in a cafe. It was fantastic and it was my inspiration to start writing again. So while you have had those that tutored and inspired you, know that you have been and are a light of inspiration.
The last thing I want to say, is that I am happy for you. I am glad that you are taking a step to change your life because quite recently I've learned how that feels. That moment when you realize you have to a stand and not wait for someone to make it for you is quite possibly the most freeing moment a person can have and I am glad that you can experience that. While I am glad that you are trying to change your life, I am sad to see you go. I am sad for this community and I know yourabsencewill be felt.
So while I don't know if I can call you a friend, I know I can call you a good person. So whatever you are going through I wish you the best of luck and I know that you will be able to conquer any demon that dares plague and that you will be able to overcome any obstacle in your way. Farewell.[/quote][quote name="Neph" post="6163700" timestamp="1363565883"]
Matt..... You were one of the best people here.... I'll miss you sorely...... Hope you will come back one day......

Not to be rude, but this is a thread for everyone. Anyone can use it, not just Matt and friends.
Matt, I'm not going to make a long post since I don't know you as well as everyone else. You know you're an awesome member and you'll always have a place to come back to.[/quote][quote name="Alestaire" post="6163824" timestamp="1363574824"]
Though I'm sad I didn't get a mention, gonna miss you dude.
You were my inspiration to get back into writing & it's helped me tremendously.
Good luck with everything dude, I know what depression is like as I'm still struggling with my own but I'm sure you'll get through it better than ever.[/quote]

There have been a lot of people I’ve met here who have been amazing, and some of them have become very special to me and will stay with me forever. I want to pay tributes to those people, and let them know how important they are and how much they mean:
- Dion. When I first went into Creative Writing, I was a bit overwhelmed by everything I looked at. Even the rubbish stuff looked great to me. But then I found a story that was so gripping, and so exciting, well it just blew me away. It was your story. And it inspired me to try writing myself, and we all know what happened then. But it happened because I asked for your help, and you guided me with great feedback and advice with both Armageddon as a reader and as my beta for 24. I know I’ve been a right mule sometimes, but I respect you so much. You are my idol, and you are such an amazing person otherwise. I wish I’d been better help for you than I have been, and I hope things work out for you and we keep in touch. And finish Dead Zone for god’s sake!
- Cinnabon. I was going to only do people here I know the real names of, but you mean a lot and I respect it if you don’t want to tell me just for this. But I’m still gonna mention you here. You’ve been lovely and kind and patient with me. Your bubbly and chirpy personality is so infectious. Even when I’ve been a moron and a pain, you’ve been nice to me. And got me to come out and tried to involve me in things and events to get me to cheer up. And you’ve helped me with events. And your clubs are awesome. And you’re very sweet. You’re just the loveliest, most charming lady I’ve met here.
- Tom. I’ve not known you for as long as the others mentioned here, but you’ve been pretty incredible talking to. You’ve sat me down and talked to me when I’ve needed help, even though what I’m going through is nothing compared to you. You’ve been a great supporter and helper with writing YGO24, and you’ve been such a supportive friend. I liked your story as well. I hope things settle down for you and you can achieve happiness too.
- Rodrigo. Yeah, yeah, we all know that Rodrigo is still going to read this forum as an unregistered guest no matter how many times you ban him, so I can say this. Not that I really need to since he knows, but anyway, Rodrigo. You are so special to me, more than I could ever describe. I have been a total jerk to you sometimes, because I got in this state and didn’t know what to think, but you never let me go. You never abandoned me no matter what. You have protected me and made me feel genuinely loved, in a way that no-one else has ever made me feel. I was so happy. I’ll always have a place in my heart for you. Genuinely.
- Masha. Ah, my lovely Masha. Glomp!
I’ve left you til last because I’ve know you the longest, and because you’re the best friend I’ve made here. Really. We’ve talked so much, sometimes about serious things, sometimes about random funny nothings at all. It was all fun, and it all meant a lot. And you’ve looked after me in my darkest, most desperate states of despair when I needed help, and you’ve dragged me, kicking and screaming sometimes but still you stuck to it, and made me calm down or see sense. I’ve burdened you with a lot of crap, but you just took it all regardless and stuck with me. Thank you so much for that. But it’s not been all bad either. We’ve had some great talks too. I think we’d have been great friends if we grew up together, maybe. You’re a thoroughly brilliant person. Thank you for being and continuing to be my great friend. I promise I’ll try to talk to you more in future.
Well, I think that covers everything, in what has taken me hours to write and is probably the longest post in this section ever.

Well, it's probably pretty hollow compared to Matt's honestly, but I'm leaving too. Looking at how f***ing horrible today was made me realize I have zero reason to stay on YCM.
I don't do anything here. I don't make an impact, good or bad. To me, that's just a good signal I should leave. Due to this, I will be cutting contact out from all people I met one YCM with one exception, and I'm sure it's fairly obvious who that exception is.
I do want to mention some people, not as indepth as how Matt did, again comparing this to his, but I figure I might as well, considering there were some people I could stand on YCM.
Neo, I didn't really know you well. I mean, I kinda only met you during that failed CC Mod election thing. But for the short time I talked to you, I'm glad I did. You're a great guy.
DL, you were kinda my original friend not counting Black. I only had a few people I could have considered close to me, but you were one of them. You certainly had your problems with Black, but I still consider you a close friend.
Lily, I remember the few weeks you spent trying to ruin my life. Considering how close you came, I'm surprised I ever talked to you after that. But, I'm glad I did. You really did change, and some of the times I talked to you after that really helped me get my head on straight.
Dem, this is weird. I'm not really sure what to say, but I know I have to mention you. We're so alike in so many ways, and I just want you to know I'll always be cheering you on. What you said on your profile about me really means a lot, and I hope and pray that everything turns out well for you, cause you need it just as much as I do.
Agro, this is kinda strange for me, but I could tolerate you. Sure, you were on Chris's level when it came to ego sometimes, but overall you were a nice guy. Aggro format still sucks btw.
Chris, even though you're out of the loop of the game now, I learned a lot by watching you play against Lily, Byakk and others during older formats. It might seem silly, but I learn a lot better from watching then I do from playing. I guess this doesn't mean as much as the others, but I would have liked to think I was at least decent at theory compared to most of the other players on YCM.
Striker, I just felt as though I should apologize to you. I wasn't exactly nice to you in the past, and even though you weren't always the most tolerable person, you have attempted to make it up in past year or so.
Armz, you are hilarious. We never really talked outside of Powerforce while it was around, and even then we didn't much, but the fact that you are a Drifblim, the evolution of one of my favorite pokemon makes it to where you deserve a mention.
I feel like I'm forgetting someone, and if I am I'll try to contact you in the future to apologize for it, but for now I want to get out.
I could do more, but they would be a whole lot more negative then they would be positive. I could write one for Sora, Chance, Zazubat, Ragnarok, and a couple others, but I won't. Instead, I'll put this here.
I was known for all of /two/ things here on YCM. My relationship with Black, who is easily the best person in my life, and one post I made. I want to put that post here, simply because it embodied both of those two things.
Maybe it is silly of me to put this here, but... I feel as though if I can help even one person with this post, then my time on YCM was worth it.
I never achieved anything here. I never won any major events, I never stood a chance at becoming a mod, and even then I don't know if I could have even been a good one, and I certainly didn't make many friends or make a good impression.
But maybe this one post was all I needed to make.[/quote][quote name="Volcanism" post="6163854" timestamp="1363578168"]

HEY KAEDA. YOU KNOW. It is extremely disappointing that you don't say goodbye properly. Goodbye means so much. Like it means that your stay and everything meant something to you and the rest of us. Bye is the farewell that shapes everything to how much you are going to be hurt leaving this place.
Please, just type out Goodbye so we know how much you care. If you care about us at all. I promise I won't hit on Black while you're gone. (Even though he is too innocent on this site) I do say that you were awesome in our affairs. We had times where it was completely silent but not awkward and you were at lease very helpful in the most minor ways that showed how kind you were. Your kindness on one of your best traits.
So as I say goodbye to you, I have to say. Stay the way you are and stay with Black because you two are wonderful together.[/quote][quote name="Black Kitsune" post="6163861" timestamp="1363579408"]

This is my song for Matt and Caeda, I hope you like it, cause it almost made me tear up as I wrote this post:
Agro format for me will always be remembered as the joke format that I got everyone to take seriously~
Also, I feel happy by that comment, and you should know that every time I get a compliment, the ego shrinks, not vice-versa. Yes, it doesn't make sense and it's totally weird, but it works. Somehow.
Anyway, you were great. You and Black are forever and always my favorite internet couple and I hope I'll get to hear about you two meeting up sometime in the future. While you did get heated on me and put me down once in a while, you were always generally kind to me, and I really did appreciate that. I wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors and I'll definitely miss you around here.
As for Matt, well, it's really a shame that I didn't get to know you better than I did, or that I've never had enough patience to sit down and read a story on an internet site. I must say that I did enjoy reading what of yours I managed to get to. You're a great writer and the Creative Writing section will surely not be the same without you around. Hey, if you ever write a book, come on back just once just to let us in on it. I'm a lot better reading stuff when it's physically in my hands.
And if you have a skype, you better as hell add me as well.[/quote][quote name="Kanade Otonashi" post="6163878" timestamp="1363581951"]
Well, I have to say thank you to everyone for the warm response. I'll admit, I was never too fond of being on YCM from how I felt I never made an impact. I felt like I was just here, taking up space.
But, while I was thinking about why I was having trouble leaving, I realized what the problem was thanks to Daemon. I was doing it all wrong. There is only one way I can leave YCM and be content with it.

I thought I heard it
I even thought I felt it
Now it starts to shake within my chest
I thought it would come soon
The new day passes through thousands of mornings
I thought it was waiting
I even thought it was calling out
My soul is shaking
I thought I found it
Like millions of dreams the day can vanish
I watched it fade
I waved it good-bye
“Thank you”
I'm not just leaving, I'm fading. Whatever I did, whomever I helped, it was enough.
Thank you YCM. I met my husband here. I met some wonderful people, and less than wonderful. My life isn't perfect, but I can leave contently.
Goodbye.

Well, it's probably pretty hollow compared to Matt's honestly, but I'm leaving too. Looking at how f***ing horrible today was made me realize I have zero reason to stay on YCM.
I don't do anything here. I don't make an impact, good or bad. To me, that's just a good signal I should leave. Due to this, I will be cutting contact out from all people I met one YCM with one exception, and I'm sure it's fairly obvious who that exception is.
I do want to mention some people, not as indepth as how Matt did, again comparing this to his, but I figure I might as well, considering there were some people I could stand on YCM.
Neo, I didn't really know you well. I mean, I kinda only met you during that failed CC Mod election thing. But for the short time I talked to you, I'm glad I did. You're a great guy.
DL, you were kinda my original friend not counting Black. I only had a few people I could have considered close to me, but you were one of them. You certainly had your problems with Black, but I still consider you a close friend.

Deep breaths. Deep breaths.
So this is the end. I'm about 85% sure I've alienated the majority of the YCM population by now, so for the minority of you that remain-and for the even smaller minority that actually care enough to read this-I'd like to say thank you.
I've only spent about one and half years here and it feels like forever. Why? Well, frankly, it was because of the people I spent it with. I'm not gonna mention EVERYONE I've met on here in this monologue, but I honestly can't think of a single person I hate on YCM that's been here for long enough for me to talk with consistently… which is a feat, as I'm sure Desu would tell me.
I may have not been the best, the kindest, the coolest, or the brightest member here (each of which, I'm sure some of you will be responding to with "you bet you weren't"), but even with all that I truly felt accepted here. Which is something I've had trouble finding in other places. I felt like I've learned a lot from coming here in that regard as well. There's a lot of people in my life now, irl, that I feel like I can call friends, and I'm not sure if that would be the case if I hadn't spent so much time interacting with the members here. And even though this site has drained the majority of my productivity and free time in the year and a half I've been here, I'm truly happy that I was able to spend it here.
And now, as I leave, as I break all ties with YCM… well, I can't say it's been easy. There are certainly people who are and will be angry with me over things I've done or leaving on such short notice now. I can't say I haven't thought about that a lot, and I apologize if I've been inconsiderate at times. I hate leaving things on a sour note.
For those of you who DO hate me, either through my rather abrupt departure or from something I've said in any of the ridiculous amounts of posts I've made in the time I've been here, I'm sorry for whatever I did. I don't try to hurt anyone or get on anyone's bad side, but one way or another, it happens. However you feel about me, know that I don't harbor any ill-will towards any of you (that are not named PooperTrooper) and I hope one day, you'll reconcile your feelings of discontent and anger towards me. Optimistically, I'd even hope you'd realize there were probably a lot of good times we've spent together.
I think I'm gonna pull a Matt here and just walk through everything that's happened to me since I started here at YCM. So sit back and relax folks, cause this may take a while… or just skip to the part where I talk about people. Either or, I know you guys don't like reading stuff.
I don't know what happened first, but somehow I ended up on the Cardmaker Wikia. It was there that I stumbled onto some cards that were made by a guy who was writing a fic on YCM. Finding that cool, and being an avid writer, I decided to try my hand. Enter, my first fix, The Wanderer. I spent about a month writing 10 chapters for that fic before actually posting on YCM… which sounds pretty cool until you realize that I spent another year writing the next two. This is where I met a lot of the members that I've grown an affinity towards, even if I don't talk to any of you that often. It's where I came in and it's a section I still feel attached to.
Of course, I didn't stay there. I ended up moving to Realistic Cards… and eventually to Written Cards when I realized that I hated making the actual cards. Written is SOOOOOOO much easier. Safe to say what's become of that, no? I was named best cardmaker at the last YCM Awards, so I'd say that's one hell of an accomplishment considering what site we're on. …okay, so it's a pretty insignificant title, but I felt like I'd accomplished something, so let me have this one!
Alongside that, I quickly started posting a hells-ton in the TCG section. I've been told I'm considered one of the top players there, though even then, I don't consider myself that good at the game… many would then input that this is because the playerbase on YCM is crap… I disagree. You guys are great. Maybe not the best competitively, but better people to play against than half the people at my locals, so that's pretty swell.
With that out of the way, let me just talk about some members that I really owe a lot to. I'll go alphabetically:
Aisu: …wait, I'll think of something to say. GODDAMMIT BRAIN, WORK. Well… I'm assuming that your placement here will alert you to what I think of you. GOOD NEWS! It involves two thumbs up.
Armz: You're the coolest cat on the block. Bar none. It's a shame I never really got to know you personally, because in every other way, I kinda felt like we were buds. …I was kinda hoping I'd have more to say about you, but I think I've probably summed up all the awesome experiences I've had with you with those few sentences. By the way, if you were actually gonna go through with those Transformers things you were planning on making, I'd still love to help out if I can. Send me a PM about that before I leave and we'll talk a bit on it.
Black: I will absolutely never completely understand how you feel about me. It's not possible, I suppose, no matter how many times you tell me. xD Well, you've been great, I must say. There are times we didn't see eye to eye, of course, and whatever you may call our relations was anything but smooth, but overall, I can really only think of you in a positive light. You were a real mentor and friend while I was here and I thank you for that. I hope you and Caeda live happily ever after, cause you two deserve it.
Caeda: I felt like I had to include you in here since I talked about you in Black's thing. But don't let that make you think I don't like you! You were great, I must say! You gave me a self-esteem boost on more than one occasion, and considering how low it normally is, that's an accomplishment that I really must thank you for. We may not talk much or whatever, but it was nice knowing you and like I said before, I hope you and Black have a happy life together.
Canadian: It may have been sporadically, and almost nonexistent, but every once in a blue moon, you'd catch me when I was in the dumps and pick me back up. There's not really much I can say about you, but I really felt like I should include you 'cause you were a real bro. Thanks man.
Ciaossunic: Boss, besides Mako, you're probably the most likable person on the entire site. I can't think of a single time I've gotten either angry or whatever negative emotion you can think of with you. The way you tend to play everything off with a laugh is truly admirable and I wish I could be as mature as you are in those situations. Plus you've probably given me the majority of my reps, and in a world where my ego gets ripped apart faster than a jumbo present on Christmas morn', that really means a lot.
Demmy: We may be on bad terms at the moment, but on-and-off for the majority of the time I've been here, I've felt that you're one of the closest people I've been to on this site. Even if you don't think it anymore, I have, and do still consider you a good friend. And while we'll most likely never talk to each other again, I just want to thank you for all the time we spent together. It meant a lot.
Desu: You'll probably respond to this in the same unimpressed-or-negative response you normally give everything, but I still don't think poorly of you, no matter what I've said. Sure, you may have your quirks, but we all do, and when it comes down to it, I seriously can't actually say that my overall view of you is a negative one. I'd hate to have the last thing I said to you be on a negative note, so I do hope you'll take this to heart, no matter how sarcastic your response will probably be.
Kyng: Uhhhhh… not sure what you think of me anymore, but I always liked you. Sad that we haven't talked in a while, but whatever. I'm glad to have known you. Plain and simple fact.
Larry: Whatever happened to you, good luck. You were the UX in CRUX. Oh, you don't know what that means? Me neither. Good luck to you man, even though I may never know why you cut everyone from your contacts.
Lunar: God, there's so many things I could say about you, mostly positive things. We've been friends for so long, it feels weird not having much I feel I should say. We don't talk much anymore. You send me a text once in a while, but they're always for the same reason. I dunno if you're ever gonna read this, but I enjoyed the time we spent together. At some point I'll probably cut ties in the other ways I have to contact you as well, but I just want you to know that I'm happy I was able to know you, that I was able to help you through rough times, and I hope for the best for you in all of your future endeavors.
Mako: You are far and away my best friend on here. Ignoring politics, which we've managed to do quite well, I might add, I can't say I've noticed a single interest that we've differed too greatly on. I said it once, and I'm pretty sure you still have me quoted in your sig, you're basically the most generic protagonist of any story of all time, except you don't have any actual flaws. I'm happy to call you a friend and I know you still have me on PSN, Skype, and whatever billion other things that you have to contact me with. I'll see you 'round, buddy.
Matt: Oh, wait, you're not here anymore… WHELP! In case anyone still has him on something, just let him know I posted about him. He may not have cared much for me, as most don't, but I really liked Matt. I really must have some natural affinity towards the mainstays of the creative writing section, since that's where I started out, and really everyone there has been great.
Opal: Somehow, it's a real shame I'll never get to talk to you again. Who else is going to fill my ears with K-Pop that I don't really feel like listening to? I kid, of course, but for some reason or another-and I'm sure I'm not the only person who felt this on YCM-I've enjoyed having you around, whether on Skype or YCM. It's weird, and I'm not even sure why I thought it was enough to put you on here, but here you are, and YCM Weekly was a thing… (best incoherent and random transition ever)
Phantom Roxas: I… well, I wasn't going to mention you until I got to Matt and realized that you've been a great guy throughout the time I've been here. I'm including you here specifically to give special mention to your Phantom Divinations because they were both enjoyable and really helped me as a writer. Thanks a lot.
.Rai: You've won every hipster-off in my book (sorry everyone else). For some ungodly reason, I feel like I can relate to you about a lot of artsy things, and of the few people on here I could ever talk to about something like that, I always liked to hear what you had to say. It's a shame I never got to talk to you at length outside the simple posts on YCM, and it'd be cool if I could get in contact with you outside of YCM even now, since, honestly, I'll probably need a guy who's really good with Graphic Design in the future. Send me a PM at some point before I leave.
Raine: No idea what I'm gonna say here. Frankly, there's probably too much to say here. You are by and far the most random person on the face of the planet, and maybe one of these days we'll meet up at a con or something and I'll be able to hang out with you in person… wait, that's not allowed, isn't it?
Rapidfire: Hi there. I don't think there's much I need to say to you, especially considering you have me as a contact. Even if we don't talk much at all, let me know if you need any help critiquing something of your writing or something like that. Anything else that I think about you, I'm about 99% sure you already know without me saying a thing.
Rinne: I don't know why, but I still think you're the coolest mod on the site. Don't ask questions, just accept the compliment. Creative Writing Section FTW.
Star (Zero/Neo/Accel/Alistair): Not sure how many more people even call you by Star anymore, but that's what I met you as and that's the only name I really feel like calling you now that I'm heading off. You were the first person who I ever really talked much too on YCM, and you can't begin to understand how much that means to me. I'm serious. I don't know what you think of me, but I mean that. Oh, and sorry about not being a good reader, reviewer, and failing to ever finish writing anything I started. I hope you enjoyed what I did. Thanks for everything.
Zextra: I made you a nickname and you're really cool about it. I don't think I have to say much else to explain what that entails (even though you're hardly on half the time) It's really been a treat to talk with you when I could. Keep it up, SZ.
Oh, god, that's a lot more than I was expecting to write. WOW. I'm about 80% sure I probably forgot someone that I wanted to mention, so if you even barely interacted with me, thanks for that, everything about YCM has influenced me one way or another, and I'm really happy and thankful for every second of it.
And as I wrap this up, I should probably talk about WHY I'm leaving.
Well, there are a few reasons, though a select few of you may not exactly accept them as more important than whatever relations I've made with you guys. Let me just start this by saying that I'm sorry if I hurt anyone by exiting stage-left so suddenly, but I feel that this is in my best interests. YCM is just time draining. I'll sit down, ready to look at YCM for five minutes before I have to get going in the morning, and twenty minutes later, I'll finally be off. It's a sad fact, but it's true. As for why I've been cutting off connections with so many people… it's partly because I don't want a straight path to coming back, but also because, well… unless it has to do with something I'm doing in the future, I'd prefer to keep my relationships with people I've met irl. I know a few people don't like that, and I'm sorry about that, but it's just something I have to do. People come into and go out of our lives, and I'm really thankful with how much I've learned about relationships and interacting with people from you guys. I wish you all the best, and I hope that whatever space I leave behind (if any) gets filled by someone good. You guys deserve it.
(Insert allegorical bullshit here aaaaaaaand…)
As my boat sails off into the distance, I hope people are satisfied with their time with me and that whatever ending people may be experiencing in my chapter here, they remember it fondly.
On good terms.
It's all I've ever really wanted.
I'm making this post 24 hours before I leave to clear everything up and get some last words in with people here. Also, cause I'm a real selfish bastard who loves seeing if people will say anything good about him.
Oh, and two last requests.
1. Getting enough likes to get over 1000 reps would be a cool way to go out.
2. If someone would give supertrooper enough negative reps to make no one listen to him, that'd be cool.
Anyway, thank you all for being here,
I'll see ya'll round the block.

See you around on Skype and on PSN (once I set up my PS3 somewhere ._.)
I can't get really emotional or anything about this since we'll still be in contact, but it's still sad to see you leave this dump, bro.
If you ever come back on the forums, I'll still be around without a doubt. So there's that.

Sad to see you go man, but I suppose we've all got to get to doing that at some point. For the record, I always thought you were a pretty cool dude too. I still remember both of us entering that writing contest Rinne hosted ages ago and I got a kick out of yours. But then DL took the win and the prize which he has yet to cash in...
But yeah, that and Vongola/Status/Whatever shenanigans were fun. And I don't really pick up much from whenever I lurk TCG, but whenever I do, I feel like it's from your posts a good amount of the time. So thanks for that.
Good luck with life amigo, you'll be missed.[/quote][quote name="如月 新太郎" post="6198187" timestamp="1368235903"]
Pretty funny honorable mentions...
I mean, well, you were always pretty cool too. For the longest time, I haven't seen you post too bad stuff, even after Desu declined your app the first time, but that always changes at some point[\s].
Where am I going with this... Desu is Desu? Desu Desu Desu? Also, I was naive(Read: more stupid than that). It seems just becoming an adult makes me aware of a lot more things. But don't worry, cause I still fooled around with you, and still would. ;D

Aggro...no this isn't a succession message, but the OST fit the mood for me to do this.
My friend we've been through a lot, and you've helped the Vongola HQ grow quite a bit, even had to appoint you as my 8th Guardian: Night. Out of all my Guardians in the Vongola, you were always one to put a smile on my face. Sure the others did the same, but you started quite a bit of the jokes we had going. Not only that, you also were supportive with a lot of the stuff we had going on, in or out of the Vongola! Aggro, my Night Guardian....my friend....those reps I gave you, you deserved every one of those! As the Vongola HQ's Sky Boss and your friend...I wish the best for you in the life out of YCM.
Make some waves wherever you go! And always know this...
The members of the Vongola will always support you, no matter what (even if they don't feel like it)!!
Never give up! Keep your Resolve strong!

I still love you very much, Aggro.[/quote][quote name="Aversa" post="6198223" timestamp="1368239076"]
Half the reason I'm going to like your post is because you mentioned Burnpsy, who possesses the superlatives of all positive attributions on this site. That makes him the best.
In terms of you...
I don't think I disliked you. I didn't, but it was always fun that you never wanted to talk to me because I was always too persistent in proving a point. Or other reasons, but those don't matter. Actually, I'd usually ignore these goodbye posts and talk to the person in private to say farewell, but I'm actually having nothing to do as I type this, since I'm waiting for Crunchyroll to update.
You were nice, too. You didn't really put a smile on my face like others would say, but thank you for being an entity unto which I could entertain myself. Seriously. Any sort of reaction works for me, including ignoring me. I also thought you were just a bit smart, but so were a lot of people. It was a bit more apparent with you, given your intellectual prose. I mean you manipulate it to sound intellectual, but an idiot cannot do that as often as somebody competent.
I would still love to know what you learned from me.
In terms of what our relationship was, I never thought we had one of any sort. It wasn't a weird relationship as much as two people (one of questionable humanity and the other of questionable sanity) present in an appropriate proximity to cause any sort of interaction. If you understood us differently, please elaborate.[/quote][quote name="Lunar Origins" post="6198255" timestamp="1368242454"]
In lieu of Aggro leaving, I may as well take my leave, too.[/quote][quote name="Agro" post="6198295" timestamp="1368244813"]
You're different than most of the people I've ever met. Talking to you was new and interesting, albeit sometimes frustrating.
The main thing I learned from you was how you think- though it's doubtful that I can fully understand that completely- which is important for me since I'm a writer.[/quote][quote name="Aversa" post="6198298" timestamp="1368245293"]
Now you've engaged me in such a terribly engaging topic. You have twenty-four hours, you said. I still have time to ask for more elaboration on specific parts that interest me the most.[/quote][quote name="Striker." post="6198311" timestamp="1368247762"]
I saw that Lu*shot*
Anyway, thank you for the honorable mention (short, sweet, and to the point) Agro. May life be a blessing for you and not a curse. May your dreams be fulfilled and not become regrets. It's been nice knowing you even though we never really talked much (hey, we tried at least). Just know that we are here if you ever need us, though I understand that irl always has priority.
Luna, the same goes to you too. I hope your life is what you want it to be, and I hope you find true happiness. May you be successful in all of your futureendeavors. ^^[/quote][quote name="Kyng" post="6198907" timestamp="1368309978"]
This is overdue, but I felt I might as well say this, since the guy left and made mention to me without my knowledge.
There's only one word that sums up Agro for me, and that is my Slushy.[/quote]
Deep breaths. Deep breaths.
So this is the end. I'm about 85% sure I've alienated the majority of the YCM population by now, so for the minority of you that remain-and for the even smaller minority that actually care enough to read this-I'd like to say thank you.
I've only spent about one and half years here and it feels like forever. Why? Well, frankly, it was because of the people I spent it with. I'm not gonna mention EVERYONE I've met on here in this monologue, but I honestly can't think of a single person I hate on YCM that's been here for long enough for me to talk with consistently… which is a feat, as I'm sure Desu would tell me.
I may have not been the best, the kindest, the coolest, or the brightest member here (each of which, I'm sure some of you will be responding to with "you bet you weren't"), but even with all that I truly felt accepted here. Which is something I've had trouble finding in other places. I felt like I've learned a lot from coming here in that regard as well. There's a lot of people in my life now, irl, that I feel like I can call friends, and I'm not sure if that would be the case if I hadn't spent so much time interacting with the members here. And even though this site has drained the majority of my productivity and free time in the year and a half I've been here, I'm truly happy that I was able to spend it here.
And now, as I leave, as I break all ties with YCM… well, I can't say it's been easy. There are certainly people who are and will be angry with me over things I've done or leaving on such short notice now. I can't say I haven't thought about that a lot, and I apologize if I've been inconsiderate at times. I hate leaving things on a sour note.
For those of you who DO hate me, either through my rather abrupt departure or from something I've said in any of the ridiculous amounts of posts I've made in the time I've been here, I'm sorry for whatever I did. I don't try to hurt anyone or get on anyone's bad side, but one way or another, it happens. However you feel about me, know that I don't harbor any ill-will towards any of you (that are not named PooperTrooper) and I hope one day, you'll reconcile your feelings of discontent and anger towards me. Optimistically, I'd even hope you'd realize there were probably a lot of good times we've spent together.
I think I'm gonna pull a Matt here and just walk through everything that's happened to me since I started here at YCM. So sit back and relax folks, cause this may take a while… or just skip to the part where I talk about people. Either or, I know you guys don't like reading stuff.
I don't know what happened first, but somehow I ended up on the Cardmaker Wikia. It was there that I stumbled onto some cards that were made by a guy who was writing a fic on YCM. Finding that cool, and being an avid writer, I decided to try my hand. Enter, my first fix, The Wanderer. I spent about a month writing 10 chapters for that fic before actually posting on YCM… which sounds pretty cool until you realize that I spent another year writing the next two. This is where I met a lot of the members that I've grown an affinity towards, even if I don't talk to any of you that often. It's where I came in and it's a section I still feel attached to.
Of course, I didn't stay there. I ended up moving to Realistic Cards… and eventually to Written Cards when I realized that I hated making the actual cards. Written is SOOOOOOO much easier. Safe to say what's become of that, no? I was named best cardmaker at the last YCM Awards, so I'd say that's one hell of an accomplishment considering what site we're on. …okay, so it's a pretty insignificant title, but I felt like I'd accomplished something, so let me have this one!
Alongside that, I quickly started posting a hells-ton in the TCG section. I've been told I'm considered one of the top players there, though even then, I don't consider myself that good at the game… many would then input that this is because the playerbase on YCM is crap… I disagree. You guys are great. Maybe not the best competitively, but better people to play against than half the people at my locals, so that's pretty swell.
With that out of the way, let me just talk about some members that I really owe a lot to. I'll go alphabetically:
Aisu: …wait, I'll think of something to say. GODDAMMIT BRAIN, WORK. Well… I'm assuming that your placement here will alert you to what I think of you. GOOD NEWS! It involves two thumbs up.
Armz: You're the coolest cat on the block. Bar none. It's a shame I never really got to know you personally, because in every other way, I kinda felt like we were buds. …I was kinda hoping I'd have more to say about you, but I think I've probably summed up all the awesome experiences I've had with you with those few sentences. By the way, if you were actually gonna go through with those Transformers things you were planning on making, I'd still love to help out if I can. Send me a PM about that before I leave and we'll talk a bit on it.
Black: I will absolutely never completely understand how you feel about me. It's not possible, I suppose, no matter how many times you tell me. xD Well, you've been great, I must say. There are times we didn't see eye to eye, of course, and whatever you may call our relations was anything but smooth, but overall, I can really only think of you in a positive light. You were a real mentor and friend while I was here and I thank you for that. I hope you and Caeda live happily ever after, cause you two deserve it.
Caeda: I felt like I had to include you in here since I talked about you in Black's thing. But don't let that make you think I don't like you! You were great, I must say! You gave me a self-esteem boost on more than one occasion, and considering how low it normally is, that's an accomplishment that I really must thank you for. We may not talk much or whatever, but it was nice knowing you and like I said before, I hope you and Black have a happy life together.
Canadian: It may have been sporadically, and almost nonexistent, but every once in a blue moon, you'd catch me when I was in the dumps and pick me back up. There's not really much I can say about you, but I really felt like I should include you 'cause you were a real bro. Thanks man.
Ciaossunic: Boss, besides Mako, you're probably the most likable person on the entire site. I can't think of a single time I've gotten either angry or whatever negative emotion you can think of with you. The way you tend to play everything off with a laugh is truly admirable and I wish I could be as mature as you are in those situations. Plus you've probably given me the majority of my reps, and in a world where my ego gets ripped apart faster than a jumbo present on Christmas morn', that really means a lot.
Demmy: We may be on bad terms at the moment, but on-and-off for the majority of the time I've been here, I've felt that you're one of the closest people I've been to on this site. Even if you don't think it anymore, I have, and do still consider you a good friend. And while we'll most likely never talk to each other again, I just want to thank you for all the time we spent together. It meant a lot.
Desu: You'll probably respond to this in the same unimpressed-or-negative response you normally give everything, but I still don't think poorly of you, no matter what I've said. Sure, you may have your quirks, but we all do, and when it comes down to it, I seriously can't actually say that my overall view of you is a negative one. I'd hate to have the last thing I said to you be on a negative note, so I do hope you'll take this to heart, no matter how sarcastic your response will probably be.
Kyng: Uhhhhh… not sure what you think of me anymore, but I always liked you. Sad that we haven't talked in a while, but whatever. I'm glad to have known you. Plain and simple fact.
Larry: Whatever happened to you, good luck. You were the UX in CRUX. Oh, you don't know what that means? Me neither. Good luck to you man, even though I may never know why you cut everyone from your contacts.

I really must have some natural affinity towards the mainstays of the creative writing section, since that's where I started out, and really everyone there has been great.

You were the first person who I ever really talked much too on YCM, and you can't begin to understand how much that means to me. I'm serious. I don't know what you think of me, but I mean that. Oh, and sorry about not being a good reader, reviewer, and failing to ever finish writing anything I started. I hope you enjoyed what I did. Thanks for everything.

Oh, god, that's a lot more than I was expecting to write. WOW. I'm about 80% sure I probably forgot someone that I wanted to mention, so if you even barely interacted with me, thanks for that, everything about YCM has influenced me one way or another, and I'm really happy and thankful for every second of it.
And as I wrap this up, I should probably talk about WHY I'm leaving.
Well, there are a few reasons, though a select few of you may not exactly accept them as more important than whatever relations I've made with you guys. Let me just start this by saying that I'm sorry if I hurt anyone by exiting stage-left so suddenly, but I feel that this is in my best interests. YCM is just time draining. I'll sit down, ready to look at YCM for five minutes before I have to get going in the morning, and twenty minutes later, I'll finally be off. It's a sad fact, but it's true. As for why I've been cutting off connections with so many people… it's partly because I don't want a straight path to coming back, but also because, well… unless it has to do with something I'm doing in the future, I'd prefer to keep my relationships with people I've met irl. I know a few people don't like that, and I'm sorry about that, but it's just something I have to do. People come into and go out of our lives, and I'm really thankful with how much I've learned about relationships and interacting with people from you guys. I wish you all the best, and I hope that whatever space I leave behind (if any) gets filled by someone good. You guys deserve it.
(Insert allegorical bullshit here aaaaaaaand…)
As my boat sails off into the distance, I hope people are satisfied with their time with me and that whatever ending people may be experiencing in my chapter here, they remember it fondly.
On good terms.
It's all I've ever really wanted.
I'm making this post 24 hours before I leave to clear everything up and get some last words in with people here. Also, cause I'm a real selfish bastard who loves seeing if people will say anything good about him.
Oh, and two last requests.
1. Getting enough likes to get over 1000 reps would be a cool way to go out.
2. If someone would give supertrooper enough negative reps to make no one listen to him, that'd be cool.
Anyway, thank you all for being here,
I'll see ya'll round the block.

I can't get really emotional or anything about this since we'll still be in contact, but it's still sad to see you leave this dump, bro.
If you ever come back on the forums, I'll still be around without a doubt. So there's that.

Sad to see you go man, but I suppose we've all got to get to doing that at some point. For the record, I always thought you were a pretty cool dude too. I still remember both of us entering that writing contest Rinne hosted ages ago and I got a kick out of yours. But then DL took the win and the prize which he has yet to cash in...
But yeah, that and Vongola/Status/Whatever shenanigans were fun. And I don't really pick up much from whenever I lurk TCG, but whenever I do, I feel like it's from your posts a good amount of the time. So thanks for that.

I mean, well, you were always pretty cool too. For the longest time, I haven't seen you post too bad stuff, even after Desu declined your app the first time, but that always changes at some point[\s].
Where am I going with this... Desu is Desu? Desu Desu Desu? Also, I was naive(Read: more stupid than that). It seems just becoming an adult makes me aware of a lot more things. But don't worry, cause I still fooled around with you, and still would. ;D

Aggro...no this isn't a succession message, but the OST fit the mood for me to do this.
My friend we've been through a lot, and you've helped the Vongola HQ grow quite a bit, even had to appoint you as my 8th Guardian: Night. Out of all my Guardians in the Vongola, you were always one to put a smile on my face. Sure the others did the same, but you started quite a bit of the jokes we had going. Not only that, you also were supportive with a lot of the stuff we had going on, in or out of the Vongola! Aggro, my Night Guardian....my friend....those reps I gave you, you deserved every one of those! As the Vongola HQ's Sky Boss and your friend...I wish the best for you in the life out of YCM.
Make some waves wherever you go! And always know this...
The members of the Vongola will always support you, no matter what (even if they don't feel like it)!!
Never give up! Keep your Resolve strong!

I still love you very much, Aggro.[/quote][quote name="Aversa" post="6198223" timestamp="1368239076"]
Half the reason I'm going to like your post is because you mentioned Burnpsy, who possesses the superlatives of all positive attributions on this site. That makes him the best.
In terms of you...
I don't think I disliked you. I didn't, but it was always fun that you never wanted to talk to me because I was always too persistent in proving a point. Or other reasons, but those don't matter. Actually, I'd usually ignore these goodbye posts and talk to the person in private to say farewell, but I'm actually having nothing to do as I type this, since I'm waiting for Crunchyroll to update.
You were nice, too. You didn't really put a smile on my face like others would say, but thank you for being an entity unto which I could entertain myself. Seriously. Any sort of reaction works for me, including ignoring me. I also thought you were just a bit smart, but so were a lot of people. It was a bit more apparent with you, given your intellectual prose. I mean you manipulate it to sound intellectual, but an idiot cannot do that as often as somebody competent.
I would still love to know what you learned from me.
In terms of what our relationship was, I never thought we had one of any sort. It wasn't a weird relationship as much as two people (one of questionable humanity and the other of questionable sanity) present in an appropriate proximity to cause any sort of interaction. If you understood us differently, please elaborate.[/quote][quote name="Lunar Origins" post="6198255" timestamp="1368242454"]

You're different than most of the people I've ever met. Talking to you was new and interesting, albeit sometimes frustrating.
The main thing I learned from you was how you think- though it's doubtful that I can fully understand that completely- which is important for me since I'm a writer.[/quote][quote name="Aversa" post="6198298" timestamp="1368245293"]
Now you've engaged me in such a terribly engaging topic. You have twenty-four hours, you said. I still have time to ask for more elaboration on specific parts that interest me the most.[/quote][quote name="Striker." post="6198311" timestamp="1368247762"]
I saw that Lu*shot*
Anyway, thank you for the honorable mention (short, sweet, and to the point) Agro. May life be a blessing for you and not a curse. May your dreams be fulfilled and not become regrets. It's been nice knowing you even though we never really talked much (hey, we tried at least). Just know that we are here if you ever need us, though I understand that irl always has priority.
Luna, the same goes to you too. I hope your life is what you want it to be, and I hope you find true happiness. May you be successful in all of your futureendeavors. ^^[/quote][quote name="Kyng" post="6198907" timestamp="1368309978"]

I'd never actually leave you guys so suddenly...
That is to say, if I leave it wouldn't be a night-and-day, suddenly flipping the switch kind of deal. You wouldn't be able to open up a calendar and point to a date. "Yep, that's the date Billie left YCM." If I left it'd be something a bit more gradual. Something like spending less time on the board, posting less, warning people less, setting up an election for a new TCG mod, revealing the secret of how to become an admin to the rest of the staff, un-modding myself, and so-on-and-so-forth.

Well, sh*t. YCM was never that active to begin with, but with all these long-time members leaving, it'll be completely dead.
I'm not exactly a social person, so I didn't get to know any of you, but, nevertheless: Goodbye. Good luck in whatever you do in the future and hope you guys pop back in sometime in the future.
I swear, another bunch ofyou will also leave because these people left (TT_TT)[/quote][quote name="Striker." post="6199449" timestamp="1368377276"]

I'm going to just state that I came back and everyone i looked up to is either banned, gone, or is leaving :'( Striker and Zazu, if either of you leave I will die. So just... no. Don't even think of it. Kay. Good.
And Toot... Don't go D:[/quote][quote name="Neph" post="6199538" timestamp="1368385549"]
Holyfuckinghell.
There's like a f***ing domino thing going on. Hoot now too? Aaaggghhh!

great balls of fire
I go to sleep and suddenly EVERYONE IS GONE
Well, good bye to those who are leaving. I mean, this place is my internet home, so having so many cool bros and sisters leave just doesn't feel good.
But it's understandable. This place is about as dead as it can get (not as dead as MCM, though), so hanging out here is really fruitless.[/quote][quote name="Aversa" post="6199550" timestamp="1368387772"]

People if you actually try it will be fruitful. its green where you water it. So actually try and do it teach people bring you IRL talk to them talk on here instead of an different website
I think this would go better if I had better grammar -.-
Force yourself on more quick complaining it's dying New people joining everyday get those Guys out of their shells, quick saying it's inactive, your part of it's inactive

Nobody has said they are leaving YCM for another site. They are leaving YCM because it doesn't interest them anymore. This site does not need or want to force members to stay, many left when the forum switched to IPB yet YCM survived.
I agree with that the mentality of "the site is dying" is incorrect, but it does seem that way to those who lose their friends.
However, your attitude towards people who want to move on with their lives is horrid and I suggest you change it. Its highly idiotic to make a post with negative views towards people who leave, yet don't care at all if you get banned.[/quote][quote name="КΛЯΜΛ" post="6199623" timestamp="1368394683"]

To all the members who made convincing enough real leaving posts: I say good bye. Most of you I did interact with a decent amount, and I did make interactions with all of you, the only one I haven'tinteracted with much at all was Spike, but you seem like a really decent person.[/quote]
I'd never actually leave you guys so suddenly...
That is to say, if I leave it wouldn't be a night-and-day, suddenly flipping the switch kind of deal. You wouldn't be able to open up a calendar and point to a date. "Yep, that's the date Billie left YCM." If I left it'd be something a bit more gradual. Something like spending less time on the board, posting less, warning people less, setting up an election for a new TCG mod, revealing the secret of how to become an admin to the rest of the staff, un-modding myself, and so-on-and-so-forth.
I wouldn't want to go out with a bang. I'd prefer to just quietly fade away.
