Popular Post Aksel Posted March 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2021 I'm not sure if saying goodbye here is even something people do or respect, but I feel that maybe this is how I obtain the necessary closure needed to finally walk away. Anyway... I am stepping away from Politics & War after years of game time. My time in Politics & War has been filled with tremendous ups and historical downs, but along that ride I've met some pretty awesome people, learned a lot about myself, and made lifelong friends. In fact, if it wasn't for Politics & War and my need to make things look awesome aesthetically and operate off-site pages, I wouldn't have the technical advantage I have today to start my own business or maintain a position/get promoted in my RL career. I've grown tremendously from where I was when I first put feet down on this world. I was an immature !@#$, made emotional decisions, and pissed a lot of people off. I've made my share of alliances (I think publicly the number is 89-100 now? lol) I could write a book on my life here but in reality only created a handful of fun places with some great friends and had a heck of a time doing it. My last project here was creating Atlas Technologies with some of the closer buds. Developing a system that allows for change, growth, and expansion. I stepped down as Chairman months ago, and that community is still thriving. I told people before that Atlas would be where I hang my hat and although I've had urge, offers, and ideas - I must stick by my word. RL is calling. I've just opened up my small business, I've got work going on there. I am migrating to a new career which is somewhat of a dream job and a total life changer. I also want to get into a few other things in multimedia with friends from PW and RL to just have some fun times, kick back, and chill. Devoting time to this game just doesn't fit within that schedule anymore. I guess I'll do some shout outs. There is no fricking way that I'll be able to name everyone, but if I miss someone that I've engaged with on a higher level, I apologize in advance.@Prefontaine the OG. One of the first guys I met when I joined years ago, who would have known that we lived in the same city and interacted through our careers? You've been solid to me throughout the years, I appreciate that.@Alex put a lot of trust in me to do admin/moderation things. From graphic work, forum moderation, SK moderation when that was a thing, and the design team. I know I'm not the most fun to work with especially when I'm passionate about making things better and more efficient, so thanks for dealing with my complaints and bullshit. You've helped me with RL as well as here and I thank you for that. If you're ever looking to get some staff, hit me up. @caanite/thewitchking/idk what name you go by now - (if y'all know who I'm talking about, tag him in this thread). Basically the best friend throughout the years, endless conversations IC/OOC and just a stellar sidekick to have around. If anyone dealt with my bullshit the most it would be you. We have grown apart in the last few years which fricking sucks, but just wanted you to know that I cherish our memories and you're someone I won't forget.@Tali you fit right into the Caanite category. Part of the ancient friend circle AND you're still sliding in my dms and in Atlas with me. We'll stay friends because that is just how we are, but you're awesome. We give each other that solid RL advice all the time and life wouldn't be the same without it.@Charlie Traveler @Kevanovia @Pika y'all are grouped together because I think we all met each other around the same time. Charlie, I miss you, wtf man. Kev, we still talk so I'm not worried about stepping away. Pika - ain't no way you're getting out of my life. Y'all come down to my state of residence and we'll get some beers. Thanks for a great friendship, relationship advice, jokes, and just being the true true.@Jordan we got along really fast, I'd trust you with my puppy and that says a lot. You're genuine, honest, and fun even if you are a little soft haha. I don't think we'll stop talking outside of PW we got that snapchat level of friendship. hah you're the best and I'm proud of how far you have come. I think that is where I'll end the shout outs - I definitely know I'm missing someone or a group of people and like I said no hard feelings. For those of you who clearly don't like me all I can say is, it sucks to suck - but seriously, you probably took this game too seriously for me to actually respect you on any type of level to be cool with you and for that, I'm sorry. Will I be back? I hope not. Everyone gets those itches once in a while though - maybe I'll return under some other name, maybe I'll be one of the lucky ones and stay away forever. I will not be going into VM and will be deleting entirely. If you'd like to keep in contact, I'm down. I'm still in the PW server/AtlasTek server shoot me a dm. Thanks again everyone, y'all be safe and nice to each other. 38 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say I didn't see this coming, I know we chatted about it a few times, and I've always said IRL comes first. I've so appreciated the trust and encouragement you've been in my development as both a player and a person. You've had a huge impact on my life in the short time we've known each other! I can honestly say that I probably wouldn't be playing this game still if it wasn't for you. We'll stay in touch for sure on Snap and I look forward to any trip you make to Canada one day. Best of luck in the post PnW world! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arawra Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Good luck and stay well Max!

Guest Epi Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 You are one of the most decent people I have met playing Politics And War and I'll miss yah. It is unfortunate we were opponents as often as allies but you taught me a thing or two in both cases. Your contributions to the game and the community were and are monumental and I hope people carry them forward. And thanks for helping me out when I was without a friend.

Kurdanak Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 It's been a pleasure playing this game with you for the past 6 years, Max! Shame to see part of the classic Max/Tali/Caanite trio go, all six dozen of your alliances live on forever in my heart. See you around on Discord! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispyGeneral Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Our interactions were very few but I do remember the countless alliances you jumped to and from even though most are just history now they were pretty solid creations/communities so hats off to you lad. Go show the world how creative you are & Goodluck!
