There is no tl;dr version. This isn't an I quit this game thread. You want to know more read. I have reached a point in my life. I no longer want or need to play games. I have quit TERA, SWTOR, and stopped playing even my favorite game kotor 2. I have meditated on the matter and wish to improve myself with worldly things. I reached a turning point last night. I can't continue this way. I have my chance... I am saying it here because this is the only forum on the internet I am part of and some people that I like here. That may not like me perhaps, but I like them. I am a person who is very honorable. Honor, courage, commitment, sacrifice and respect with overall general well being of the human race is my life's code for myself and is how everybody should live. Stop bickering over pointless things that does nothing but cause drama and stress. I have decided to remove myself from gaming all together. All my games are now deleted, as much as I love them. An opportunity has risen for me to move to Colorado. There I will be far away in the mountains and foothills for me to start what I have always dreamed of doing my whole life since I was a small boy so I can help people. Make a real life Master's Retreat. Within this Retreat there will be people, just like you. Have help guiding yourselves down a path that leads to only righteousness and overall common good and well being for yourself and others. Then, in time YOU will be a master over yourself. Hence "Master's Retreat". I will find those who think honor also and are committed to make this a reality so we can take people in who are either mad, confused, depressed, just need help or don't get it and make them see they are more than what they think they are. I will be somewhere in Colorado and if you want to find me in some years time, because it will take me a while to set this up, you will know how to find me. Follow the flames This is 100 percent no bull. I am dedicated to this. I have just not done it yet because I'm stuck in suburbs of Chicago and have not had the necessities to start my dream. Well, the time has come for me to finally do it. It will take a long time but with hard work, determination and courage, I will build a Master's Retreat for people to release their inner self and overall be a better human being to work in unison with the universe so you feel better about yourself. This will be about strengthening yourself as well as others around you as a whole and making us work together better. In time you will see your mind. And when that mind opens, you will be one with yourself. I just thought I would say this to give hope. Know that there are still good people in this world who put others before himself. Know there are people who live not just for money. Know there are people who do nothing but go by honor and sacrifice. There was once a time when even YOU reading this now, even if you have become bitter, knew there would good people. It is time you know it again. I, along with I'm sure many others are here for you. Do not worry about what we are going through now. The world is in an identity crisis and we have lost who WE are. We must work together as a human species to live on this planet. Do not let others that are bitter and selfish change who you are. Be one with yourself and in time one with the universe to open yourself up to others, those in need. Our age right now is all driven by what society thinks of us. Do not care what society thinks of you. Do not be a sheep. Be your OWN PERSON. Know yourself and better things will come. Do not fear the future also. Do not turn away from yourself. I leave you with this. Always follow your dreams. I almost gave up on my dream and thought I was going to be stuck here forever. When an opportunity arises you to either move from your past and start anew so you can be a better person, or if it arises for you to start that dream. TAKE IT. GRASP IT and let any good energy come of it. Because when you are old and sitting in a home somewhere you WILL regret that you did not do that thing to make your dream come true. Yes the force is real and this is not a roleplaying post. This is me, this is 100 percent real and I believe that if you harness enough energy within your mind and turn it towards, honor, courage, commitment, sacrifice, respect and overall general well being of you and those around you.....YOU will be a better person and in sync with your feelings and the universe. Goodbye everyone. May The Force Be With You All! P.S. - This will be my last post ever in my life on these forums regardless of replies or what not. I already said goodbye to the game and to you all in my last post. I am never coming back. I have made up my mind. My dream WILL happen!

You are absolutely right. I am awful at pvp and have no intention of making myself better in the future. Cause you know what I don't care

ok NOW it's a bickering match that is going nowhere. It's the same what it looks 4 or 5 people over and over "I SAID THAT!!" "NO YOU DIDNT!!" GGRRRRRAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn who cares

Good. This isn't a pvp game. Sorry, it's a main pve game with little bits of pvp thrown in afterwards.

Ok for all the people saying they are making more money off the CM than subscriptions you are probably right. Then, why would you need a subscription plan if are making money of the CM more? Wouldn't you be completely f2p and have the Cartel Market decide where and when you are going to release content so people can get their kicks while not doing much for subscribers and completely giving f2p people what they want? They should just make the whole game f2p, lift some of the restrictions and say "SWTOR goes completely f2p" like AION did. Because ya know...like...they make all their money from the CM, who cares about subscribers. If that's true, what a damn pity and shame

Me me me!! I was. Hopefully they do something soon to attract me back

Well I'll be in the forums till my time comes to leave Reminiscing about the game and all and just having happy good times I love you SWTOR. That's why it's so hard

It was a figure of speech to signify the best way I can describe who I am. I know what you mean though. In helping people and caring about them I still need to care about myself so I CAN help them while I'm healthy I hope that makes sense more. If you knew me irl I would elaborate more .

Alright let's not let this become another bickering match here. And to the ones who said I had my expectations high: Kotor 2 is my favorite game of all time Star Wars is my favorite thing in the world BioWare are my favorite devs kotor/kotor 2 soundtracks are my favorite osts Choice/Decision the way they are in kotor together with the atmosphere I LONG for in any game I LOVE mmorpgs I LOVE The Old Republic Era LOVE voice acting! So when I heard they were coming out with a Star Wars MMORPG set in The Old Republic era, decision making in real time regardless of end outcomes or not, voice acting, you get your own ship and it is going to have ALL the kotor/kotor 2 themes that match up with what you are talking about in a certain mood and it had everything I love.....wouldn't you be a little excited? cmon now, wouldn't you? I think so. Be truthful to yourself now.

I am. I can guarantee that. I would rather sleep under a rock in a cave and have a person living on the streets and give up my bed so they can have a warm place to live instead of having it to myself. Really, I would. That's me.

Well thanks TUXs. You were the other one that was RIGHT on the tip of my tongue. As soon as I saw that helmet and name I go "OOO it was TUXs!" But thanks. It will be hard. Especially because I like you guys so much And I really love this game as you guys all know, and I hope they add some things that are worthy of me to come back. But yeah, like I said right now...not happening. I will continue to stay optimistic as always though!

I don't Andryah. I fear maybe not for a LONG time this time unless something goes in the game that is great. Seriously now. I'll miss ya though

THAT IS EXACTLY HOW EVERY BUSINESS SHOULD THINK! Just as you said "If you create a good model, to provide a good service, AND you do an excellent job the money just happens and is a REWARD for that GREAT MODEL you have successful put into form and make it work" BINGO you got it

You don't have to be such an inconsiderate, ignorant person about it. I feel I needed to make a post leaving because I care deeply about the game and it's hard to leave. Some people makes posts because they want either comfort, people agreeing with them or some type of thing like their playing mattered. BTW, I don't play mmos like I used to. WoW sucks, rift sucks, and I played SWTOR for my rp kick and TERA for my combat pvp kick. So don't be so quick to judge (as most people do) and think just because somebody is typing something on the computer that means they don't go outside. What if you are actually the one that doesn't go outside and are trying to put it onto somebody else they are actually the way YOU are and you are telling them they are THAT WAY so you don't feel guilty about what you are doing. Like I said, if things change I'll be back. But if it continues to go this direction. I will not be. No need to get all defensive and start with the accusations of throwing crap around designed to start things and get people in an uproar because if you want somebody to tell you off in a nice, mature way I will be happy to be the person that does.

That is what is wrong with most business owners. You should be in it to provide a service and make people happy and overall a good satisfaction THEN your reward is the money. More of the societal BS drilled in most people's heads that think "it's all about the money". That is what is dooming us in the first place.
