Life made me do it!
Hello BG.
After reading YYJ's post I felt inspired to drop some words regarding my own hiatus this last year.
Some of you already know this, but because of YYJ's post I hope I can inspire others to follow in the same footsteps.
For many years I went no where in life, and the easy thing would be to blame BG. But no, BG created a world for me where I didn't have to live and deal with my own problems.. That the character I played the most was seriously messed up and had his own problems.. Yeah, think of that what you will!
I was heading down a road that was leading to an autobiography called.
"Quit drugs and ate himself to death within 15 years."
Little over a year ago I weighed 150KGs(330lbs, for you uncivilized people that don't know the right measurement.), played games for 16 hours a day and didn't in any way take care of myself in any way at all.
Now a year later I've lost 50Kgs(110lbs) I got a full time job working and studying to become a chef, I am dealing with the issues I created for myself, psychologically and financially.
Yes, it's ducking hard, yes I hate it sometimes. But these times are becoming fewer and fewer, and everything is becoming easier.
Do I miss BG? Meeeh, I miss the people. Which is also why I pop in from time to time. Luckily for me I am still in contact with a few from here, some which I even consider among my best friends.
Will I return to BG in the same capacity? No.
TL;dr.
Life is great, don't waste it upsetting over pixels in a stupid videogame, don't waste it being mean to each other. Go smell the flowers, go get laid.. Etc. BTW flowers smell great.. Life also sucks, but it sucks even more when not dealing with it.
"Bro, why you mad.. Is just game!"

I mean.. I am about 320lbs myself (or 1326851 snarfles for people who make up measurements) and what you did makes me feel like perhaps I could get back down to fighting weight? If it were only as easy as the movie montages made it seem.
Cheers
