Recent events in real life have got me questioning as to why I have bothered spending so much time, money and effort onto a text based game that actually does nothing for me any more. The game play is stagnant, updates are few and far between. Though in all fairness, my interest has dwindled since dropping my dirty bomb.
Honestly, my main concern and what I've come to realise is how many endless hours I've spent playing poker, arguing in global, just being a general bellend. I've made some great friends over the years on torn, (shoutout to stretch, georgecostanza, dark, wayne, clansy, hydro, nic, deft, tiller, paddyboy) also made some enemies (shoutout to Ali, dicklauren, pimptresswhale, dickpulse)
Thanks to NOVA, JFA & IBB for accommodating me over the last few years. Shout out to MightyGoober for keeping my spot on hold, should I return!
Every hour I've spent on this could've been spent with relatives no longer with me, out with friends, or just doing something productive. Loosing someone and having a kid actually puts that into perspective. I've found the time I want to play torn dwindling, to find me not even logging in for days on end.
Why am I sitting playing a text based online game talking to strangers when I've got this smiling thing looking at me - taken years to realise that I'd rather spend torn time with family and friends

Honestly, I've just made this thread to thank Chedburn for providing me with hours of entertainment over the last ten years and to apologise to anyone that I've offended / pissed off the time I've been here, honestly, I'm not that much of a bellend in real life.
I'll be dropping back in from time to time, however, as it stands, mans done.

PS,
Ali, it would never have worked between us.
