Alkavian 2,214 Posted July 4 Well, I think I’ve reached the end of this road. Been away on vacation (not a Bears style vacay, but a real one) and came back to see the forums in a pretty sad state. Lots of desperation, frustration, and beating a horse that has become more of a rug than a corpse. Already seen some good folks leave and some get banned. At this stage, moving on to other things seems best. I no longer have a drive to keep investing time here at this juncture. That being said, I must say I’m humbled by amount of folks who took an interest in The Playbook thread, helped contribute to it, and made it a place people could go for some help getting a bit better at the game. I can hardly believe the number of views it has received and the amount of positive feedback it has garnered. Thank you all for taking an interest and providing input. @Kodiak thanks for putting it as a sticky in the General Discussion Forum for people to find. Just letting you know at this point I will no longer be updating it unless some unforeseen and unbelievable development occurs allowing new content to be added to the game. You can unhitch the boat from the dock and let is sink if you so choose. Thank you to all the good folks I’ve had the pleasure of chatting with over last year and then some. Glad to have made some new friends. Thanks for all the great laughs and games. @bewareofbears, @lHeartBreakerl, @AldermachXI, @Brigadius, @TheHansonGoons, @Tattooey, @Ghostboy20, @BrokenFattHardy, @Riot_Dame, @Risinggrave, and a slew of others that I'm sure I'm forgetting (unintentionally). I'll still be playing F13 on Xbox on occasion, but I don't think the forums have much left to hold my attention. Many of you know how to reach me so it's not goodbye, but rather change of venue. I also play quite a bit of Deep Rock Galactic on Xbone. Great indie-game with many new updates and an awesome Dev team. I'd highly recommend it if you want a change of pace. This meme reminds me of the forums and the game at the moment. Frankly, I don't want to hang around for the slow death of both. So I bid you all adieu and good luck. ~Alk 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StarringRole 39 Posted July 4 I never really had the chance to hang around a lot on the forums but seeing what I've heard as of late i may have been better that way, Pity I never managed to talk with people a lot on here, but I'll take this as an opportunity to just see last few things going on, I'm probably on my way too, probably from the game as well I don't even trust them to keep the game up, especially on Xbox which I mainly use.

TheHansonGoons 1,161 Posted July 4 Dude, this is sad, but not surprising. You have bestowed much wisdom on everyone here. You showed me how to be more tactful in my arguments. Glad to hear you are no longer wasting your time here though. I remember when the forums used to be fun and and now all of the prominent members are being chased off. Its digusting. I will see you on the Xbox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Risinggrave 1,477 Posted July 4 @Alkavian I can dig it. I'll see you around on other avenues, man. If there has been one bright spot to everything, It's been a blast to meet and befriend so many top notch individuals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jameson87 519 Posted July 4 Damn, late to this one. Always enjoyed our conversations, and your wisdom. Hate to see you go, but I completely understand it. You will be missed around here, I am a PS4 guy, but I am sure we will cross paths again. And if it got missed in all the chaos of the forums and my life, my wife and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your contribution in our time of need. Godspeed brother.
