Please don't give me a " TL;DR " As this is very important.
I have to say, I am sincerely sorry for my inactivity in this guild, as a moderator it's unacceptable.
Many things have died down in my life with school passing into the summer, yet I've still been reluctant to post here, due to my inactivity on Gaia. But that is not all.
With Dra's hospitalization ( out now ) and multiple other causes, I've been unable to play Dungeons and Dragons for a while now, and the last game we've had has been an utter wreck. I believe this has helped put me off of the game. I should have been willing to give it another go, but I, sadly abandoned my games on here, and offline. I sincerely Apologize for that.
I have also jumped ship, with the last DnD game I've had, being the utter wreck that it was. To a older, what I find ' More enjoyable ', less well known Pen and Paper RPG known as Paranoia. ( Look it up if you'd like, you won't be disappointed)
With the coming of the fourth edition, which I do not have. I've also come concerned of not knowing the rules, as it is alien to me. I would not like to drag down 4th edition campaigns with lack of knowledge for the rules ( In Paranoia it's against the rules to know the rules!).
I would like to say I'll try to be active, but who would I be trying to convince? You? Or myself?... I've never been one of self discipline, and am only ever tenetively attached to a campaign. Truth be told, nothing yet has really " wowed " me, like Paranoia has.
If I make an attempt to come back, how long can I hold it up?... How long would I be able to come on every day and roleplay? Can I do it when schools is on more then when it's not? Maybe because of the structure school presents. ( Wakeup > School>Videogames>Supper>DnD>VideoGames>Homework>TV>Bed)
Maybe I should say I'll try when Schools in a few weeks? But will I still be able to keep it up with the ho hums and stresses of it all? I did it fine before, but am I still interested that much?
None of these are a reason for me to have quit, it's unfair for the other players, and for the other Guild Members, and unfair for Bigfoot. As he placed his trust on me, even offered me Vice Captain, except... I quit, and let everyone down.
I can honestly say, I will make an attempt to play. I will join one game, and go from there. If I can keep it up, I will continue to be more active. I will keep playing, and post when I can. I do not know what brought this on, but I sincerely swear to that. And I sincerely Apologize for the people I've let down.
This is not when I said I'll make an attempt to post more, I am saying I WILL. I cannot promise much, but I will be active in one campaign, is what I do promise. I repeat, ( I'm doing a lot of repeating here!) I may join more if I get into the rut once more, but that is not promised.
DnD is no Paranoia, but Paranoia is no DnD.
This guild had something different then all of the others I've been in, a close community, interaction, good staff, and something else... I do not know, but I commend Bigfoot, The Signature Reaper, all of the staff, and all of the guild members then and now.
I must sincerely THANK Darth Durza for making me think of the guild again.
And I sincerely apologize to you all, I will do all I can to follow through on my promises, and the guild.
(I've noticed my character sheet design being used, ( by Bigfoot) and that brought back Nostalgia of such good times I've had here, and Dungeons and Dragons in general. )

*Steals Biggie's option*
Its good to know that you are still alive and well Turi! I know Biggie and I have missed you for sure. We've revamped somethings around the guild, and we haven't gone 4.0...actually, many of us don't really like it much. But we still will play it if someone runs it. (If you'd like some quick rules, under my shadowkeep ooc thread I have the quick-start rules from a written campaign.)
I've actually heard of Paranoia. I haven't actually given it a go yet, being that my irl friends basically suck because they are too busy playing crappy White Wolf games. (no offense, I do enjoy White Wolf...sometimes)
Hey, no worries about the inactivity...I went inactive for a while as well. (for which I also apologize) It's good to have a life outside of the internet. Sure, we miss you, but I'd rather you be taking care of things where you are than wasting your time like a bum in front of a glowing screen. Life comes at us like a sneaking gang of 20 kobolds. We all understand that. So don't sweat it, k?

Thanks, that's good to hear. I havn't heard that great of things of 4.0 either, and I'm focusing on game collecting, now. I'm not spending money on Rule books for something that already works fine. ( Except for the Paranoia one, but that's because for everything it's 20 bucks, and I love it.)
Yeah, not many have. It's a really easy, pick up and play game. Easy to learn, hard to master. Instead of lucky die rolls, it relies on being a sly liar and being the most entertaining. I've never played White Wolf games, it's just been DnD, Warhammer, and Paranoia for me. ( And a homebrew boardgame a friend of mine made. )
The sad thing is I was still kind've wasting my time in front of a screen...
Thanks, by the way, if you havn't noticed I'm going to be running a campaign instead of joining one.
