I Live!
Like, OMFG (or something...)

Yeah so I decided to login tonight. I'm sitting in a coffee house with a bunch of roommates and I'm very bored. Got to chatting with some people and this forum came up. How's Graal going these days?

<edit (seconds later)>
Ok, so I guess you all deserve an exlpanation as to why I suddenly vanished last August. I got as reather heafty promotion back around then. I've spent much of my time at work and after I get home every night I'm in no mood to be on the computer. I feel really bad about leaving people like that. I had just started getting some gears grinding and then *poof* I vanish. bad galen! BAD BAD no cookie for you

<edit (1 min later)>
I really shuould hold off hitting that 'submit' button. ugh. um ok now I forgot what I was going to say. bah. never mind.

So. You going to be posting more or just keep the same lazy activity as you've had for the last couple of years? Also, I remember when we were on Classic and you were in your truck using your computer.

It wasn't always like that. Within 6mos of Zeldo Online's inception to Graal's creation and for years beyond I was very active. I only really started to drift away after Cyberjoueurs couldn't afford to keep me on their payroll.

Wanting to move up, and being worthy of moving up, are two totally seperate issues.

The game isn't good enough for him to stick around unless someones paying him ? People pay to play the game, and he won't even stick around unless he is payed. Kind of sad.

When you have other demands in life like a job and school, Graal has to take a back seat to all that. Unless Graal was your job, in which case it would be up front.

I've been juggling finals and working weekends as well as doing PWA stuff during the week, it's quite a busy lifestyle.

You can quit your Graal job then, with no real loss. That's the advantage to not being paid.

Hello Galen, good to have news from you.

A few weeks ago Angel were telling me she could come back and then no more news.

We will perhaps have yearly news from Angel and Galen

Wait, wait, waaaaait. Let me just see if I caught this correctly.

It is good to not be paid for a job, so that when you quit you can say you lost nothing by doing so?

That would be your opinion, however, I have learned alot working on Graal, I wouldn't say it would be no loss....some people work for Graal, because they love it...paid or not.

It is still not a real loss. Many people have to quit activities they enjoy in favor of activites they need to do to advance in life.

If Graal was making it more difficult to attend to your school work or your job, you would be able to quit without any impact on your lifestyle, except more free time.
