I personally dislike making announcements out of leaving.
I get the feeling that doing this sort of thing makes others who are uncertain get that bit of courage they need to gather to go right along with the person making it. Nonetheless, this time I feel like I should, for once, make one of my own.
Going back in time to about 2 years ago...VSB was basically the place I came to when I was concerned about scaling and cosmology for whatever series I dream of making. Yes, I know how hard and time consuming this is, but I aspire to be a writer someday. I came here interested in how cosmologies and such could be used as tools for a history, rather than a problem.
I did find some of that during my time.
But I also kind of found the things I expected the least to find. A lot of friends. No, I have no one around who I'm particularly in bad therms with (and if you, who are reading this, thinks the contrary, may this be my personal apology for whatever problem we may have had in the past. It's not much, but it's the most I can do in this case.)
I had friends in... Both sides of the "matters" that happened around here. Or thought I had. I hope the ones I actually did consider that way, thought the same or somewhere close to that. If they didn't... I guess I can take solace that at least we still laughed together about a lot of things. If by chance they laughed at me, too, hey that's fine. I happened to be laughed at for a lot of things and I'm carefree enough to end up laughing together with others before I even notice it.
...But back to VSB. I came to know a *lot* of people around here to one extent or another. Some are still here, some aren't anymore. Either way, I'm glad and thankful I met them. Not just the ones I got along with. I'm glad for the crazy discussions, I'm glad for the moments I was triggered.
I'm even glad for my endless bickering with Weekly in the days past, in hindsight. *Maybe.*
VSB gave me a lot of memories I'll be treasuring, that's for sure.
I won't make a list out of people I met and I won't say I'm leaving because of whatever it is that happened, is happening or will happen.
I hope I can remember everyone I met here for the good things they had to show, rather than the bad. I know I had bad things to show. My opinions aren't truth, nor will I ever think of them as such. I'm not perfect (sadly! ovo), just human. I have mistakes of my own so what I can do is my best to try and learn with them. Therefore, I believe others can and will do the same.
Whatever reasons you may have had, or whatever was the way we talked to each other...
For you, who are reading this, I have nothing to say but
"Thank you. It was a lot of fun!"
Now if you think otherwise, consider this announcement as my parting gift to you, who would consider me an "enemy"! I do not judge you. I thank you nonetheless and wish you the best, the same way I do to all of my friends!

So let me part by saying this:
"Fate can and will bring people together, but only bonds will keep them that way."
My bond with you all is much more important to me than any sense of negativity. So that bond is what I'm keeping as I leave.
Godspeed, to all.
