<br><br>I can say this pretty much surmises what VP has become to me. I used to love this site, there was so much potential and happiness. Its gone"It is like a fruit.<br>It became a blossom, attracting bees and butterflies.<br>Then the fruit began to grow, beautiful and bright bursting with enjoyment and life.<br>Then it was picked and brought to the store.<br>As it was going to be put on the shelves, fell.<br>It rolled behind some storage and shelves and no one cared.<br>It began to rot.<br>It slowly went old and soon it will be nothing but forgotten dust."

I won't miss how oppressive this place has become, how certain people who should be mature are not. How it seems like where there was a small but growing art community with lots of help and support isn't. I never needed what ever fame I got on here for being an artist, I didn't really care. I will never appreciate that some obvious rip offs got worshiped and new artist were bashed. I'll never understand the reasoning behind some things that were said and done. But most of all I think I'll never forgive the things that were not done.<br><br>If my post is deleted, well it just goes to show how corrupt some parts are. Don't get me wrong its not a vent or it would be over in the vent board, I just have to state my reasons because I know lots of people will ask. I'm only keeping my gifties and 3 lines of dogs. I'll log in enough to keep those. Not that I need them, I'm just greedy like that. The forums however I'm leaving for good. I look out over this place that I have some fond memories off and it is saddening. I did mean to leave you with some great philosophical bit of art, but alas I can not gather the will to do so for a place that doesn't really deserve it. <br><br>To my friends:<br>You made this the best of places! Though a lot of you have gone before me where I can not follow. To those still here you have my love and respect, you know how to contact me.<br><br>To those I never got along with:<br>I never set out to make this distance between us, but I am not a forgiving person. I guess we will never work it out and see eye to eye, and soon I'll forget you I hope you do the same.<br><br>To those I never met:<br>I'm sorry we never got to chat or share ideas for what ever reason. I hope you find VP as great as I did once, even though it's like a sinking ship.<br><br>To the people I owe art:<br>If you have a prize or prepaid art due from me please send a note to my kennel (Evlon) I'll get on and check at some point. I'll finish those through e-mail. If you don't have a paid one, sorry but I can not in good faith hold to it.<br><br><br>Now to clarify this has not been a spur of the moment decision for me. I've been thinking it over for many months now, and finally decided I would basically quit. I've been handing out the dogs I no longer need to my closest friends. Next time I'm on chat I think I'll give the rest of whats left away or trade them for gifties I don't own it doesn't matter much any more. <br><br>So long, fair thee well, I won't be back. 
Due to lack of interest tomorrow is canceled. Let the clocks be reset and the pendulums held.
