After a lot of thought and contemplation I am pulling my alts out of SWP. I am keeping Snap in, as she will always be a part of SWP. My account runs out on the 16th and I won't be resub'ing. Will I come back? i don't know, I might when they put the BG changes in. As it is now i just no longer feel comfortable with all the emphasis on raiding, and focus on nothing but getting epix. This isn't what this guild was about, ever!! I just can no longer be a part of it.

First of all and most importantly i want to say I'm very, very sorry about my behavior over the last several months. I have been under a huge amount of stress in RL and I've let it show though in game and hurt my friends. I came to that conclusion about 2 weeks ago and thats what peeps mean when they say its gotten better. I cant change what has happened in the past but all i can say it wont happen ever, ever again. Simply because i do care about my friends and taken a long hard look at myself and haven't liked what Ive seen. The way Ive behave is no where near my normal behavior.
All i can say is Laileb you are right and i am wrong.
So sorry Ive hurt you.
Sincerely Doric

Btw, the last post was not an attempt to bring you back. It truly is a sincere and hearth felt apology. The self examination I have been going thru did not come from you leaving the guild and the game. In fact, it started long before I knew you was even having problems. To tell the truth, you didn't say anything that could be considered worse than what I've seen in myself. I truly cant believe that I've been acting out the way I have. All I know I looked in a mirror and didn't recognize myself and did not like what I saw. Thats why I've made some personal decisions about myself and making the appropriate changes to get back to being the man I was a couple years ago and you can ask anyone from the old star wars how I was before all this.
Anyway, I do hope that perhaps you and I can talk this out some time in the very near future. It isn't healthy to keep this bottled up and sometimes talking it out can lift a huge burden. I have always considered you a friend and hopfully you thought of me as a friend and if so it would be far better to clear the air than to let it end this way. Well at least for me it would.
Respecfully Doric

To elaborate on some things as far as I am concerned and to give those that don't really know me all that well a tidbit of info.
I don't hold anyone responsible for me wanting to leave the game. Did the drama over the last few weeks excelerate it, yeah it did but it's not a path I haven't been down before.
I have come and gone from this game depending on my excitement factor. More or less if the changes in game held my interest, I stayed.
Let me start with a history lesson. I started playing this game day 1, that is to say I went out and bought the game on it's relase day. I did not know that the day I bought it was actually it's release, I went to gamestop with the intention of just buying unreal tourney, and picked this up as a side note. Regardless I have been playing longer than most in guild.
For 3 years I enjoyed this game, and set foot in MC 1 time. Was a guild leader and also disbanded that guild due to inner turmoil. I re-rolled on staghelm as mage, and then a druid. The mage is gone but the druid was there for the birth of SWP on staghem. I leveled her to 60 and tanked everything I could. During this time most of SWP came over from star wars and UO. It was great time to be in the guild, however I was growing bored.... I went back to my horde server, joined a raid guild and raided end game on my newly 60 hunter. I stayed there a yearish. Problems I wont go into caused me to want to quit the game, I went back to Staghelm and started playing Snap again. 2 weeks later i was no longer playing WoW, and was playing Star Wars. I played about a year.
I came back to WoW and more or less was talked into giving it a good try n BC. I was lv 63 whn I came back and Doric ran me through shit left and right, let me tank and relearn the game. And to this day i am greatful for that. I stayedwith Wow for quite a while til I got bored again. Once again I left and went to SWG (star wars galaxies).
So what does this have to do with anything you all are wondering?
My current situation is not a matter of hearbreak, or being pissed off at someone. It's a matter of "the gameplay".
When I started this game , on release day, being attacked my more than 2 npc's was certain death, today it's a joke if you die to 5, let alone the 8-12 that can be easily killed by a DK or warlock (yes I do know and have had no problem levling killing that many on a contant basis). What once was a great game has become ez-mode no matter what class, or competance is there. I don't mind dying to a skilled player, really I don't but when the skill is not there and it's just a matter of his gear is better than mine and that's why I died...I do have a problem with it.
I could add up the total pvp kills i have on all my toons, alliance, horde, pre honor wipe, pre BG,......it doesn't matter. I know whats balanced, i know whats not I have played enough toons over the last 5 years to tell you if I'm overpowered or not. But in pve, i can honestly say this game has become ez, and for me.... no longer fun, or even worth my time. Did I decide this when Doric was being hounded? No. But I picked that time to announce my frustrations.
My problems are not with Doric, he did what he thought was best for the guild. He may have gotten carried away a bit, but regardless he never intentionally meant anyone harm. No my problems run much deeper. They go into a system designed to make people greedy, designed to make people lust after this or that item. My problem is with Blizzard.
Blizzard has totally and utterly ruined this game that I once loved. There is no unachievable goal. There is nothing to look forward to, to dream about. All there is is a system setup to make anyone off the street able to get the best gear with no effort whatsoever, with no skill at all. This game has become a joke. The joke is....let's see how many people we can get to run old content and feel like they have accomplished something.
I love you all, you all are family to me. I just can not deal with blizzards bullshit anymore.

E&B, SWG, Lineage2, when ever a game gets a lot of people playing you can also count on a lot of changes being made to appease people complaining, then the devs usual over do it and ruin everything. If you know of a game that is still being played and is popular today that has not ruined its self please list it, as i would some day like to play it.
