Default Gone for good.

I feel that I need some sort of explanation as to why I'm leaving, not that many of the jackasses in the Gbin care, and I feel like this is a good time for closure on this site. I'm leaving simply because the site has changed so much, and I'm tired of seeing tens of tokens that I'll never be able to obtain. It's frustrating, and it does keep an edge to the game, but it's almost like threading a needle with no eye.

Also, The Gbin is now completely corrupt, and I'm somewhat upset that there's very little humor left there. If you take a look, it's just chock full of new users who think they can be better than anyone who registered 2, 3, or 4 years ago. The attitude there's changed too much, and It's just not suiting me. Numerous bans, warnings, and slaps on the wrists have made me change my attitude towards my posting so much, that I've looked at some of my posts and asked, "What the ****"? So, for those that I've upset, been a pain in the ass to, and disrespected, I would like to say, I'm sorry. Even though it's the internet, I now realise that people are people, and no matter how dense some may be, I can't just call them noobs.

So long, and thanks for all the cookies,
Linkisdoomed

Synthlight should start to do something about this. We have let too many members leave because the attitude of the site has changed.

wow. I just started posting like 3 days ago though I've been playing for 7months , I guess I'm clueless. But yeah, I spent my time yesterday reading some really interesting legendary threads :/ that probably shows poor attitudes for sure .

It's really quite a shame, what with all the vets leaaving. I agree, some things should definitely change.

Are you kidding me? Look at the most prolific posters. But I see your point, not too many vets are leaving right now.

*Sigh*, it seems like the more FFR adds on, the more people keep leaving. TGB is makes about is fun for about 20 people, but it pisses the rest of the users off. Unfortunately, most of the mods don't realise this because they're part of those 20 people.

What was once the most prolific posters in FFR left because of the same reasons as above.

We all think roughly the same thing Linkisdoomed is thinking about the posters, so don't think it hasn't been brought up before.

getting rid of TGB seems plausible but it would create catastrophy. this is one puzzling conundrum, by link i never knew you.
uhm, who are the most prolific posters.

Name 7 members that have left that actually matter.

And all the greatest members were banned.

Sorry to hear that you are leaving Link. I've seen a lot of regulars come and go, it happens. FFR has changed, it's userbase is a lot larger than it was in the past. The forums have gone through lame times, and also good times. So, yeah, check back in a couple of months.
