From the heart

~All fled--all done, so lift me on the pyre; The feast is over, and the lamps expire.
(Robert E. Howard) ~

My dear Age of Conan Community,

I never made it to level 80 in a blue bikini, the forums kept me very busy...told you I was a nOOb :p . Now I have all the time in the world and my thoughts are with you, my fantastic horde of Barbarians that I was so proud to care for. For all the drama and all the problem we faced I will miss every single one of you and I will always remember you with a smile. I did try to be as fair as possible and if I failed, please forgive me for that. Looking after the AoC Community was the best job I ever had and you did teach me so much without even knowing. I am sure you will keep playing Age of Conan and support Craig and the game as you have done this far and take pride in the fact that you are one of the best online gaming communities in the world. I shall treasure the memories and I shall always look back to my three years on the forums with a smile and a bit of sadness. Sometimes in life we must do things that we would prefer not to do, sometimes our destiny have other plans for us. Take care and I wish you all the best in your Hyborian Adventures.

~Know, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars.
(Robert. E. Howard)~

I wish you could return as Amorey. Play the game without worrying about any forums, or any drama. Forget about that, be a regular member and enjoy the game.

While you deserve a (long) break, I hope you once could return in the future.

Best wishes. :)

You will be missed Tahi. The forums seem somehow empty without you :)

Whatever the reasons, you are now free of pressures and obligations. It must be a huge weight off your shoulders.

I wish you all the best for now and in the future.

Fondest regards

Tarka (dahl) :)

Thank you for the kind words guys...you know you are not working any more when you fall asleep on the sofa in the afternoon O.o hehe had a good nap though. Missing Chris spamming General Discussion with 357 threads a day all with good suggestions, missing Tommy, and the daily drama on the Aquilonia Forum and the trolling on Fury. Missing all my colleagues on our private forums, the French, the German, the Spanish, and Polish and Russian mods...they are all fantastic guys working hard for AoC, many of them are volunteers so remember to show them always the respect they deserve. Be good and feel free to drop by here to see how I am doing...lol...when I am not napping on the sofa of course :p

Hello!
Im a tiny pebble that fell inside your shoe once. On your long walk i kept on hurting your feet occasionally, yet you didn't throw me out. Im not sure why this is, if it was because there were hardships far worse or because there were rocks way sharper than me around, but i must say it was very comfy there and that i am glad i got my own place to be. That journey is now at end though, but who knows maybe i will get the opportunity to exchange words with you in another setting.

Thank you, love and the best of wishes.

Missing your kitties already :(
After the server merges in January my postings on the forum effectively stopped thereby reducing my chances of incurring your "wrath", however, that didn't stop me following both Tahi and Amorey's posts. Hope you get some time to unwind and relax for a while. I am sure that our paths will cross in some way in the future, it's a small MMO world out there.

@Meos : If only all pebbles were like you ;) as someone once said (it could been me but maybe was a penguin :p )...."give me the perfect pebble and I will be yours forever"

@Livia : Thanks for the kind words, it is very strange to be *one* again after so many years jumping between Amorey and Tahi, will take me a a while to get used to.:)

If I had you as my role model before I moderated fansites I would have done a far better job at it, I loved your style as moderator.

Amorey there was a post in which you stated you passed liverpool street station, after that I used to look at people and wonder if that could be her....

Both your personas will be missed immensely.
