I know you loved me. I know you worshipped my sarcastic remarks and extraordinary wit. Okay, maybe not. If you don’t get the drift of those first two sentences, this will be the last TGS (at least for a long time) and my last article with VGCITY (also, at least for a LONG time). Yes, I have decided, on my own free will, that I can no longer continue my existence as Senior Staff at this website. There are multiple reasons, some of which I don’t feel need to be expressed in this article.

    First off, I have the feeling you have the right to know a few reasons as to why I have decided to lay down this most distinguished position. Right now, I have taken on a part-time job (yes, it isn’t that hard). This summer is my summer before my senior year in high school, meaning I have to be filling out applications for college, and preparing for my senior year. I know this doesn’t sound like a lot, and it isn’t. Frankly, it’s the mental aspect of having yet ANOTHER column due the next week and yet ANOTHER feature coming up, and yet ANOTHER review/preview due.

    Now, I’ve been offered to be “on break” and other things that would “relieve” the workload (which is not that heavy, on its own). I don’t feel that would be fair to the staff. In addition, I really haven’t felt the attitude to be doing this JOB anymore. Maybe that’s it; it’s turned into a JOB and not something FUN anymore. This may be a “depression” for me right now, but it’s also how I feel.

    I regret leaving the staff, for I promised many things to them and you, the member. Actually, as I write this, I wonder if I have decided the right thing. I know that now is very important to my life, and I feel the need to release as much pressure as possible.

    Now, will you be seeing me around? On the forums: sometimes. It all depends on how busy I am in my “real” life. Otherwise, my online life will continue on the same basis, just that you will not see me as “staff” or any articles by me. I know these sounds like I’m quitting on account of laziness… but there are several reasons behind me leaving, and I will not discuss them here… Send all hate mail to nulshock@gmx.net
