Hardly worth mentioning but I'll be on a trip this weekend. I might be a bit more absent on the boards, but I'll still be in chat every night and of course I'll be available on Skype around the clock.
Also I'm going on a trip sometime in October, and I'll be online just as often as I regularily am.
Last but not least.....Thanksgiving trip. It's freaking me out but where I'm going to be I will häve no wifi for all of Thankgiving week. RIP Peachy

Hey guys.
I know we've had a long string of users leaving / retiring, and I hate to add to the stack, but I think it's time. Life is just a little crazy. School is tough, I've got two theatre productions going on, and college apps are an ever looming shadow above me. I need to focus my priorities. And for the foreseeable future, this site is not a priority.
I've been visiting this forum pretty consistantly for six years. I've certainly had some rough patches, but for the most part my time here has been enjoyable. I'd like to thank the community for being as kind and welcoming as it has, despite what I may have done in the past.
I'm sorry I won't be around to post the latest Pokemon, Marvel, or other news that I often do. Sorry I won't be around to bombard the Entertainment and Media board with a bunch of topics regarding what my current obssesion is.
I might pop in on IRC every once and awhile. This won't be the last you see of me, I can assure you, but I can't say how often I'll be back here.
So once again, thank you.

There goes GalacticPetey.
Let's all just die, OR we could just bring in a huge shipment of new users. :p
I want MarioWiki to last many years. I think we can keep it going
Best of luck, man.

What's it with all these quality users disappearing
So I would like to take a moment just to explain some things I've been dealing with, and why I basically have not been around for over a month now.
Just a bit over a month ago, I went to the hospital for some things, which turned out fine. But since then I had anxiety attacks at least once a day, sometimes up to three to four times. It was really rough dealing with it, and had one of the worse anxiety attacks I've ever had, lasting for about 3 hours before I was calm enough to go to sleep. I have generalized anxiety disorder, which means that my triggers can literally be from anything. It could be my stomach, it could be a feeling of being trapped (I also have claustrophobia), it could be me stressed out, or feeling sick, or really just anything. I went to my doctors a few times because of it in the past month, and I almost never go there, so it was really bad.
As a result of all of this, I have decided that I needed to go back to being on medication; something I haven't done since high school. I really didn't want to be on meds again, but it was just getting really bad. I didn't want this relapse to get worse, especially since school and stuff. So I've been coping with that. However, one of the biggest reasons I have not really returned was because I think the stress of everything I had to do was what made me unable to control my anxiety levels like I've been able to do regularly for the past 4 years now. School was coming up, and last fall killed me, so I was really worried about this fall (and I'm taking 19 credits, which is about 10 classes, so it's understandable to be stressed). I also had auditions to deal with, and marching band, especially now that I'm on a leadership position that requires me to be more active with that. And yes, I was stressed about the marioboards and making sure that all the things I wanted done here (mostly in the Mafia board), were done.
In order for me to mentally recover a bit and not stress myself out, I took some time to myself. Unfortunately that meant distancing myself from the marioboards, and sacrificing a lot of things I wanted to do, such as finish my mafia game. I was overloaded with everything on my plate and I pretended that I could handle everything, and I could not. I'm really sorry for my time of absence and with my sudden disappearance. This note is to let you all know what I've been dealing with, and why I am continuing to be putting this site on the backburner. I was still do what I can to make sure things are all good in the Mafia board, and now that everything has calmed down a lot with my anxiety and school schedule, I will probably check this site a bit more than I have the past month.
I hope everyone is doing well, I hope school is not killing anyone and everyone is surviving classes, and please make to take care of yourself physically and mentally.
