Fishpond has left the building

So the best news for many of you is now coming.

But im taking a very long Vacation as i just am not interested in this game anymore. Its boring, the fun has gone, its dead and all the old school players dont really play it anymore so its lost sooo many characters.

I have been lazy last few weeks because i have no interest and now its time to get on with my work which has really overtaken everything i have done.

I found the team work and my alliance mates the most fun part and this is the only thing that kept me going, but thats gone now so i just see no point.

Despite my obvious dislike for RJ and the fact i know he bends every rule he can i still dont dislike the guy and in fact i dont dislike any of you. You are all great guys because you made this game so fun, My nemesis's, Spy, Im-a-farm, Zorton, Gale, Kron you made and make the game fun with your banter and come backs and i like that, its what makes the game fun, its why i loved annoying Slash so much and Istalris and SOC all the way back then, but do i dislike any of you NO. I dont hate anyone but im very truthful and if i have an opinion im not shy to say it which is what makes me, me and i cant change that.

Togard the fun playing with you is too good for words, If you want to know about how to play with fun and as a team this guy is your man, He is a great guy to play and with him not around its been boring and the same goes with Kuddz although his ESP's are never much help.

Gozar is also one of my closest friends IG and i share many great phone calls with him discussing the world and global domination and its been good playing alongside him.

PK also one of my closest friends although in time its drifted as he is now in another alliance and has all my nemesis's in tow in that alliance ;-)

Defiant also, who is my fellow big rugby fan although we are both not in the bloody final!!!

Contruga, Mrcleanx, DrLot, Aqua, redrod **** funny guys, make a CIRC a pleasure to come in and read in the mornings.

**** me soo many other names to try and remember but will edit and rename at some stage.

Sorry Sloth forgot to mention your name and as much as we have had our feuds, your a top lad and you have inspired me into some great new music.

Also a mention for Reject, my little angel always had me going and always love her random approach to life

i will pop in to chat occasionally so you will see me around but my playing time has come to and end.

players always gets replaced, yes the best of the games have ever seen has left from here but hey we always find another prickly character spawning around somewhere in game. i can see a few names have the potential already.

you have my sympathy that R/L caught up to you ... we all know who have at least experienced it, that R/L is the biggest mean a$$ biatch in game and all. when that happens you gotta run for good. so no arguing there. have a good one at your work. do great at what ever you do, get laid alot that might change your bitter side :P

now yes i know you all have been waiting for it... there is a "BUT"

two hits, one got you slammed on speed and another got you shaken up in extreme. you said the game is not fun any more and your comrades were not doing much to keep you interested in game. i wondered what that meant.

obviously you dont share the same dictionary as most of the "other us". when you get hit you go on rebuild spree.

that hit that you were making on zorton just got messed up due to bad timing ofc but still it happened. and that means there are still players who can stand up against you/you lot. if i say nothing lasts forever then this would be a good point to start believing it. i hope you will manage to find time for ze along side your work cause most of your mentors that you named did so. and did well while doing it. if they can so can you. no need to just use that as an excuse. not going to say you are fretting out (nope you were right i dont think like you ;) ) just going to say good luck on your way coming back.

about talking about dislikes or hating each other... for me hate or dislike is all good its a personal choice, but respect is something you should always practice. for some that is more important. if you do not respect others you dont get respected. i wont say any farther in that regard.

well good bye for now. i know you will get back in game like anyone else gets back. there is never a true signing offs until you clear out your empire and force yourself to restart. or you get hit by my 2/4 hahahahha

Played back when was only Xtreme. About only friend I had was Ikickyouassnow, I credit to him why my time in this game has been Minimal in terms of fleet losses ( which is very very Minimal for what I got flying today). Many long nights staying up late talking strategies to even just annoying tactics to piss people off.

This is just a game to me I dont care too much for friends. at least not too many of them. Blast from the past who then played other games more.....Never spent too much effort on game accounts I was small in the past learning from Kick, restarted new account years later ranking up towards the top and here I sit as the Dark Horse.

The biggest change I notice from the past to now...is that in the past...I could raid like hell to grow way more faster. Today....raiding isnt nearly as fat. With my new xtreme account I was able to get in like 30k raids to get this size today.

When changes started happening to the inactives of the game the Average of what each raid slot brought in cut in half...then cut in half again. New players coming in today have it harder than most of us around when the gettin was good.

IMO the raider died, I personally noticed alot of the games most active players quit or became alot less active when it got to the point it wasnt worth to play the game as a raider anymore. What I see today is whats left of the raider are just scavengers now
