Reply with quote

Attention all, I have an announcement that most of you are probably glad to hear:

I may be leaving smallball. There are several reasons as to why.

1 I just dont have the time anymore to train my teams and I dont
want to trust anyone with at'img them.

2 After 10 seasons of bouncing between pl8, and Pljr, it kinda lost
excitement.

3 With a 9* team, and a 9.9 Honor that just wont rise anymore, That
too lost its flavor.

So, as soon as I can get a retirement ticket, I'll keep training/playing. Just felt like I should announce this so you all can throw a "smallball party." I'll keep checking up on my team from time to time, and I'll almost definately will be in the fourms, but as far as smallball goes, I think that this is it.

Thanks for listening to my sob story Boo hoo!

see you later, brother medric. That is what I said a while ago but soon you'll find that SB has truly become a way of life and that you can't turn from it.

Don't worry kid, this is a moment every SmallBaller deals with. You'll be back, or in most cases, you'll keep playing anyway Wink

If you really do make it 'cold-turkey', than.. congrats on that, and see ya.

Despite what you might think, I hate to see you go. Don't be so hard on yourself. I can relate for your need for some time off. My team has taken time off without me leaving because I needed to do some research on them to find who plays where. Go ahead, take a break, but try not to leave us for good.

I can imagine his problem. If you can't get up, it's very frustrating. But in 'real' teams have the same problem. It's hard to get a champion! Smile

You know what I hate, when people ask you for your teams, and they dont even know you. I just got a pm from breakboyforever asking for my teams because he couldn't afford his own. Well, I got news for you buddy, the ST is free! So do us all a favor you beggers, go cry to mom/Dad for $20, or get a job!

We should make a template for post's like these.(Leaving) Rolling Eyes

I don't think you should publicly bash Breakboy for his aggressive Pm request.
He read your sob story....he shared his.

You could have at least PM'd back to him to AT for you.


"So, as soon as I can get a retirement ticket, I'll keep training/playing. "

This statement has a slight smell of begging too.

Wow, Medric. On second thought, why don't you go ahead and take a break, and come back when you can be more "chill".

Well, comon man. It takes a small person to bring PRIVATE messages into the public. No one wants to know who PMs you, or about what. Grow up a little and you may just be able to enjoy life (and this game) a little more.

Don't take things so personaly

that's why there's a 'delete' button on the PM. just use it and stop making a big deal out of something so insignificant.

also, whats the point of making a post about "I may be leaving...."? Either stick around, or leave. Nobody cares if someone is contemplating the possibility of leaving the forums.
