I've recently been getting some free time to come back to BYOND and checkout what's going on and what's happened since I've had a leave of absence.
I knowticed one particular thread that caught my eyes, and reading it I came to see that Stimulus mentioned me in one of his replies, as to which I will quote:
The study of myself, as well as others I met using BYOND, that I still keep in contact with. NeoHaxor, Branks, Sariat, SSJ Radditz, and Mellifluous are a few that I speak with every know and then that have expressed to me that they simply grew tired of BYOND. And yes I do realize that some people enjoy it so much that they may never get tired of BYOND, but the vast majority of the community will. By the time most of the younger, immature acting kids make it to high school and become a great deal more mature, they will probally have stopped using BYOND.
The post id is as follows; Post [link]
I've italised the paragraph that Stimulus wrote, and bolded out the sentence that caught my eyes. Just so people know, or should I say, just for those who care, I haven't disliked, grew tired of, or even got bored with BYOND. That's definitely not happened yet, and I'll say with honesty, that it wont be happening.
I'm in favour of BYOND and I love almost every aspect about it, and more so, I absolutely adore and look up to a lot of people here. My point being is this; I'm only away for the majority of my time because I'm working, I have a girlfriend I've been with for 7months tomorrow and I love her to pieces. I have basically hardly anytime at all. For those who know me, will have knowticed my Instant Message downtime. As I've hardly ever been on, and when I have had time to get on, I've not been on longer than 20-30minutes if that.
I'll continue to use BYOND for the rest of my life, it's apart of me and has been since I grew up and matured within this community. If it wasn't for part of this community, I'd be a stupid immature little git, so I'd like to thank BYOND for my maturity and I'd like to say I may seem quite and obsolete, but I assure you all I'm neither! I'm just rather busy ;)

|
You're alive! Welcome back!
| |
Hehe, cheers both of you :)
Glad to be welcomed back and I'll try my best to get back up and running within the development area of BYOND. Hopefully I'll finish one of my old projects. Either EoE (Evolution of Eternity) or TA (Tiny's Adventure) hehe! Hope you two are doing good and see you both around sometime! --Lee | |
Welcome back <s>Meloulifiuos</s> Lee!
| |
Good to see you again, Lee!
| |
Heh, just goes to show people exagerrate to make their points at times.
But I am also glad you are back! | |
Yeah! I'm not bored with BYOND. I just got alot of stuff to do. College Apps, Working, Paying for my car, Partying, chicks, Xbox. I will always be with BYOND though. Always.
BYOND 'til I die! | |
Cheers everyone and glad to see all are doing well and ok.
Not seen you in a very long time Nadrew, how's things and how are you coping? Care to drop me an e-mail sometime to debrief me on a fews things if you can be bothered? =) Anyway, time to dash... Take care all and see you all soon! --Lee | |
Well Lee, glad to hear from ya again, but let me clarify this for you. I was naming you and Sariat along with the others not specifically as people who got bored of BYOND, put as people who left because they had more important things to do. Read over the previous post one more time and you'll get it.
Oh and Jmurph, I didn't exaggerate at all to make a point. I guess it was a bit misworded. But if you read the previous post I stated that people leave because they have other things to do, or they just get bored. If you read Sariat's comment, he even said it himself: "I just got alot of stuff to do. College Apps, Working, Paying for my car, Partying, chicks, Xbox." Edit: Oh, and by the way. Sariat I do recall you telling me you were sick of BYOND a while back when we were talking about SHB over AIM. | |

I realized that, and I appalogize (wow, I have never used that word so I don't know if I spelled it correctly) for that, but as I said if you read over the previous post I you would see what I meant. "They are probally not around cause they actually moved on with their life. Some went to college, some got full time jobs, some are raising families or doing what needs to be done in order to raise a family, and some just got bored of BYOND like I did. I really don't think that they left or rarely post because of people acting immature." Post [link] | |
Hehe, at least it is all cleared up now and I hope you know this was not in hostility towards anyone, just something I needed to make sure of, so that people wouldn't think I was bored of BYOND for that matter :)
I'm quite honoured that you named me as one of the people you named, and for that matter, I'm surprised you really bothered to remember me too hehe! So that you have taken my respect well within your terms, even though you had it beforehand ;) As for you Jermman, you cheeky little raskal ;) -- I oughta smack you and your rear for being cheeky hehe! Nicely quoted comment though! --Lee | |
