It is with sadness that I announce my leaving.

I no longer feel any affinity to the game and a large majority of it's players.

Thanks to all those people I would call my friends : The DREADMASTER CLAN and Elmarko.

I have had many happy hours playing with you guys and I will keep in touch with you.

Apolgies to those I have not mentioned but I cant name them all and I dont want to name the ones who repulse me.

Thanks for the many great battles and memorable moments.

The league can run itself i think, but unfortunately I cannot continue.
There are many reasons for my leaving but I do apologise for messing up the league.

Bye to all and may you continue to prosper in all your different ways.

With great regret I must depart. Swiftfully but not painlessly.

I will keep an eye on goings on though on this forum.

Goodbye

Boromir...

I was very rude not to thank the guys at .org for all their great work. Without them This community would have dwindled away long ago..

Thanks Guys...

Boro -- you've been very polite in all my dealings with you, so I have a lot of respect for you. You have obviously put a lot of your time and effort into the league and that is/was VERY appreciated. You did it for free and your work was most admirable.

But I must say that it's upsetting that the league was formed and expected to run for 10 weeks or so and then 3-4 weeks the towel is thrown in. People have gotten excited about the league and some of us have spent several hours playing battles. Its disappointing that you won't stick out the season.

I do think a better explanation of your frustrations and reasons for dropping things would be fair to those of us who have tried to make the league fun and successful.

MAGY TOLD ME THIS WOULD FAIL I HAD 4 OF MY MEMBERS IN IT TAKING THERE "FREE" TIME AND MAKING THE LEAGUE A FUN PLACE.

THEN SOMETHING HAPPENS SOMEONE GETS MAD AND IT GOES AWAY JUST LIKE ALL THE REST. FOR NOW ON MY TRUST IS LAID ONLY WITH THE VETS. THEY AT LEAST WON'T QUIT AT A DROP OF A HAT.

UHHH
"PWP" (POSTING WHILE PISSED) NOT A GOOD THING.

well guys i have an idea maybe if any of u would be up 2 it we could start running the league it would be better if we didnt let the league fall and i for one have the time 2 run the league so if boromir says its ok what do u guys say we could keep the league running 2 gether.

The fate of the league is inmaterial at best here.

I am much more saddened by Boro's decision to leave.

BTW, Boro, if this has anything to do with that certain player who waas harassing Aphrodite, I got a reply from EA and they will probably ban the CD key number that that bastard uses.

I will miss you Boro, but what is to become of Dreadmaster clan?

Good luck in your future endeavors mate

As an orlok of the Grey Wolves, and as a gratefull player I would like to thank you for your work on this game, and everything around it. Although the timing is not the best, time will tell the result of your sudden leave, and the destiny of the league.
You will be missed.

Shame.

Have you arranged with any of your friends who were helping you with the league whether they are willing to keep it going? It would be nice to have a legacy that kept on.

In any group of people, especially those as anonymous as on-line communities, you're always going to get w*nk*rs, who for whatever reason, feel it neccesary to be unpleasant. But my view is, let them, it matters not to me, as I don't know them and I can be content in the knowledge that they're worms, and I'm not. That's what my 'ignore' command is for, after all....

Oh my......this is happening isn't it? Boro....you've been a good rival m8 http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif Will miss ya.

Got to express my concern over the league. I'll help if I may. I'll put that at the league.
Boro, the league is a great undertaking m8, even if you can't continue it, you've set the first steps. It's too good to just let it disappear, I hope the other Dreads can keep it running.

I hope to see you around m8.

Boromir,

I just got back after being away for 2 weeks. I visited Shai Hulud while I was in Hawaii, and he told me you were leaving. I'm sorry to hear this. I know running the league was a big undertaking, and I appreciate your efforts even though I was not able to join due to time limiations. I really enjoyed playing in the 2v2 tourney as your ally a few months ago.

If you're leaving because of harassment online, I hope that the Honor Society can in time create a better playing environment, and that you might then consider playing online again.

Good luck,

Dark Phoenix,

A trip to Perth isn't out of the question for me. I might be able to pay you a visit sometime. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif ShaiHulud is the lucky one. He lives in Hawaii with an incredible overview of Pearl Harbor from his lanai, and the cool trade winds passing through his home continuously. Almost every day is perfect weather.

Shiro,

Shai and I could have talked all night. We really hit it off. We didn't even talk about Shogun for the first two hours. After about five hours, my family was wondering what had happened to me. So, we reluctantly called it a night at about midnight.

It has been sometime.
May I just say thanks for all the good luck messages.

I dont like people to think that I just ran away when the going got tough so this really is the reason for the post. ( the first time I have been able to come back).

I do not wish to go into the reasons still but lets just say that I am sure you wouldn't disclose your private life to a public forum. Believe me I was tempted and I am sure it would have caused a stir, but It would be forgotten about. Now it is time to forget.
Oh and by the way Satake... you still pretending to be a wolf in sheeps clothing???

Look out for my return all..or.. have I already returned??

what was it that Arnie used to say?................ ahh that's it....................HASTA LA VISTA.......

Take it easy people....

I am sure people think this is childish and they may well be right. But do they know the whole story?

Let Me think of some more phrases to suit this discussion. Umm.. Sour Grapes... Hard Cheese... Tough Luck... sound familiar Mr. Kenchi Satake?

I may not be funny, but you sure make me laugh.
