a sad day

[saharial]

i closed my shinhwa fandom today. it has a week to run on the current server before it goes and tomorrow i will archive it on my other server.
it will be down a month before a quiet reopen to see what the traffic is like. I can't afford to have my blogs disrupted by a spike of visitors so we shall see what happens.

its sad, but in the end i will never get to writing like i used to if it don't stop now. I want to create the RPG for me and the twins and maddy and get back to being the old me before i was in charge of that.

besides, my job is going well and i wanna be the best i can be at that, i have a right to that!

I feel sad to hear you will close the Shinhwa fandom, since I know how much you loved it and how hard you worked for it... =( But at the same time, if it's something you feel will only be a benefit for you in the future, then it's probably worth it! As they say in Japan, お疲れ様でした！m(_ _)m

I would love to roleplay with you, Marysa, and Kay! That would be so exciting!! =D Do you know anything about The Infernal Devices? I've started up a roleplay for it with a friend, and Marysa and I will be thrusting ourselves headlong into it! If you think you might be interested (it's a Steampunk sort of fantasy/science fiction), definitely let us know! ^^ This is what the RP site looks like now, although we're not done yet:

And sorry this is such a wonky message...I really ought to get to bed soon...>_<

Also glad to hear your job is going so well! =D You're absolutely right--it's more important anyway that you do well at that and are happy about it than other extra tasks! ^_^

thanks, its making me weepy reading people's comments on the site, but i know its the right thing to do.

I haven't heard of infernal devices. It sounds good, but i have a reading list a mile long - am on 3 books at once right now *brain spins*

I will be setting up a forum for the RPG i was creating, its a futuristic one and all original so we can indulge in some world building. its like and RPG for busy people like us :)

XDDD I just reread my comment and saw I said "You, Marysa, and Kay." Poor Maddy and poor you--sorry about that failure! (I must be more tired than I thought...><;;)

About the site...it's nice to know so many people cared for your hard work, that's for sure! <3 I don't doubt they'll miss it!

^^ That's okay! Well, if you ever have time, I recommend that series! It's like watching a movie, it's so vivid!

Well that sounds like a lot of fun!!! =D Definitely let me know when you've set it up! I look forward to it!

I don't blame you one bit...Especially since we're doing something of the same. :( It's a bit of a good feeling, isn't it? Of course it's like you will miss doing some of the things you used to do on there, but to be able to focus more on real life and not have the concerns of the comm certainly will help matters. And of course there are other things, too. I wish you the best with that choice! You know what is best for you there!

In fact, you said this:

I want to...get back to being the old me before i was in charge of that.

*nods* That is exactly it, isn't it? Sometimes I think it's better to enjoy a fandom on your own time than run one...

Let's make the most of things! I want to close AAA@DW immediately, but we have promised the special, and Maddy has already made the banner, so we just need to figure out how to get the promo video done and just get it started with and over with. Once it's started, we don't have much to do. Especially since we already have the challenges. Then when it's done, we'll give comm members a week or so to get what they want from the comm...then it's gone. (I might start that soon and just have an archive place somewhere in my journal or something... ><)

Besides, I still plan to celebrate AAA--I'll just do that on my own time with you and Maddy and the other friends in my journal who like them. I only plan on sharing the fan party stuff with you guys...And I want to share them with just you guys.

But I'm very VERY much looking forward to the roleplay idea! ^^ Let's enjoy writing together!! <3
