So long Vendetta. =(

Dec 16, 2006 Spellcast link
Well, i've had to cancel my vendetta account. I put off doing it for as long as i could but with a baby on the way (our first, due in march) i've been far too busy to log on more than once or twice a month for quite some time now and can no longer afford to pay for the subscription.

Thank you very much to incarnate, raybondo, a1k0n, (the departed Waylon), and Momerath for a lot of entertainment and I wish you the very best of luck with VO. I am confident that you will manage to turn the game into everything it has the potential to be and more, I simply don't have the resources availible to continue to subscribe.

I'll probably continue to lurk in the forums for some time just to keep in touch, and hopefully things will eventually settle down on a more even keel at some point in the future and i'll be able to re-subscribe.

Peace to all, and happy holidays as well.

Probably wise - you'll be extra busy once the baby comes. Even if you aren't, it's wise not to be seen playing games when there are mouths to be fed, diapers to be changed, laundry to be folded, etc..

Enjoy (really!)

i think you need to ask yourself, where are your priorities?

too many kids get too much attention these days. it spoils them. first thing you know, they are on welfare, living in a tent at the edge of the railroad tracks, grabbing scraps of banana peels from the dumpster at the back of the nearby strip mall.

studies prove that an inattentive, absentee parent promotes strong bones, a healthy body, a winning smile, and a good career. do you want to deprive your children of the american dream by spending time with them? sure, it might make -you- feel good to play 'hide and seek' and 'peek a boo', but what about whats best for them?

Congratz!

I hope everything goes well for you, and I hope the new baby doesn't give you -too- much trouble. Looking forward to seeing you return, maybe with a wingman by your side ;)

spell, it's still possible.

my son is now turning 1yrs, and yes i have slowed down on the "playing" but there is still time to hop online.

for the first three months, TBO, the father is prettty useless anyhow... play without headphones so you can hear her ask for you to run errands, and you'll be set.

That wasn't the case for me. I kept busy doing household chores. I also needed more sleep, having been awakened throughout the night when they got up for feedings.

Long since I was active myself, but you're remembered fondly.

Don't forget to get some sleep, ;)

Will all due respect to the devs, a kid is much more fun than VO :D

Spellcast, you've got a difficult task ahead but also the most rewarding one!
