I'm Quitting VP
*You can ignore the purple section if you would like. The red section will mention my things.<br><span style="font-size:85"><br><span style="color:#BF00BF"><br>I've played VP since 2004 and I think it's time for me to just be done. I've accomplished all I've wanted to accomplish except one thing. I've made guides with a few that were stickied and I hope the ones that weren't stickied will be remembered and bumped. I have given to the community with ideas, suggestions, hosting the Halloween event, giving away 300mil, gave away numerous gifties and tried to be a good player and answer peoples' questions. I also was the one that started using 'oak' first and encouraged others to use it. I bet not many of you knew I was the one that started that since I didn't go around stating it.<br><br>Some of my friends know that I have been aspiring to be a moderator on the game. That was the one thing I never accomplished and it was one of my first goals when I joined the game seriously. I've tried my hardest to give back and be improving on here. I realize that this goal will most likely never be fulfilled and without that, I have nothing left to strive for on the game. If I felt an inkling that this would happen, I'd probably remain here but I don't. <br><br>Some of my other goals on here was to reach on all the lines I have started on, and I have. There's only one line I haven't gotten of mine and I decided that I'm just done trying on it. Another goal was to be able to submit numerous guides and have some sticked. Having a large collection of gifties was another along with having a huge kennel with amazing dogs.<br><br>I've just found that I'm done with VP. I spend too much time on it than I need to. Some things on this game even upset me and yet I still come back all the time. One of the threads on here keeps getting pushed up and talked on and whenever I see theres a new post on there, I cringe. I hate what the topic is on and it makes my mood plummet every time. I've always wanted to post on there with how disheartening it made me feel but I kept it in. Also the vent board has always bothered me to no end. We all have problems. I have mine and at home, I never get to really talk about them because my mom complains to me about hers and I feel like I need to cheer her up. Coming on here and seeing all the vents just makes me frustrated on how much complaining there is. Sure, they are simple little things like "omg my brother stole my hairbrush." I just never saw the need to post such things. I've always thought that you need to -change- what is upsetting you or do something about it. What difference does it make typing it all out if you don't fix it or at least attempt to make it better on yourself? <br><br>Redirecting to something else, I always seem to get an attitude from certain players. I do nothing but stat a simple little fact or point something out and I get rudeness. I never showed annoyance or anger towards them but yet that's what I get back. I'm tired of being treated like that by those few players who also expect me to give them things or do them favors.<br><br>Switching topics again, the economy on the game is bad. Gifties aren't seeming to sell and that is my main income of cash. There is no fun in this for me if I can't sell what I have and buy new dogs. Before it was fun because 5oaks could get 7mil-10mil but now it's hard to even sell them for 5mil. Things are just not fun for me anymore. What is the point of me getting gifties when I am not able to know I can turn around and sell them?<br><br>10x4s also aren't selling for what they used to and it seems like so many people are collecting them. It makes it nearly impossible for me to be able to even collect them or that there's no point to it. I like a little competition and that's what makes it fun but off of the top of my head I can think of about a whole bunch of people that want them. I know someone could argue that's what gifties are like but with gifties there are way more colors available and majority of the people that collect them don't want every single one; people pick out colors they like. I don't know, I'm just not liking it anymore.</span><br><br><br><span style="color:#BF4040"><br>As for my things that I have accumulated over the course of the game, some things are reserved for certain people. Friends can go <a href="http://virtualpups.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=71970"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">HERE</a> to see what is available.<br><br>If anyone would like to still keep in touch with me, I will still check forum pms once in awhile or you may message me for my msn messenger. I will still lurk on forums but I will not be posting or doing anything in the game.<br><br>I will be active in the game until December. I'm allowing myself until the end of November to settle the last trainoff I'm in, finish olympics, bid on things I may have won from auctions, give friends things, and overall wrap it up.<br><br>VP has been an interesting experience. I'm grateful for the few friends I've made on here. Thank you. <br><br><br></span><br></span>
