@Ralizah tatty-byes have a safe trip

@Ralizah Happy travelling! Be safe, ya hear?

@Ralizah Have a good trip dude

@KratosMD Only just seen your post in here from September. That's rough, hope you're doing okay

@Ralizah Have fun!

@Ralizah Have a nice trip!

@Ralizah have a fun time on your trip

@Ralizah Have fun, I hope a least one portable console is travelling with you!

@KratosMD That’s a bummer - I think your internship will give you a different perspective, which is something we all need from time to time. Take it easy and see you back on here in the future, I hope. You’ve always been a passionate member and it’s been fun reading your posts!

@KratosMD Wow. This is a surprise, my friend. I can respect your wishes and feelings, but I hope we get you back someday. I’ve appreciated all you’ve done with the poll and just contributing thoughts and ideas in general. You’ve personally motivated me and exposed me to different games that I probably would not have ever tried otherwise. And I have personally never felt offended by you and so I can’t speak to that, but I would say every one of us always has room to grow and improve as a human being. You need not feel down and really I hope your new employment is a great experience and you find what you are seeking. Speaking as someone who probably works too much, I would advise you to continue to play video games even when you get busy as a source of stress relief. If you burn out, you won’t do any employer any good. You’ll do great, so don’t worry. Work hard and play hard, mate. Adios.

@KratosMD Sorry to hear you’re leaving! I hope the internship goes well. Sounds like a good opportunity. I also hope you get an even better job soon.
And also, for whatever it’s worth, I’ve always thought you’ve been a great user. I’ve always enjoyed reading your posts and partially particularly enjoyed the time you were playing Persona 5. I’ve never thought of you as a disruption here, but another great addition. I want to say I remember someone getting upset at once, I think it was over something kinda dumb. It’s just a forum and no one was getting directly insulted.
So just know that in my book, you’re always welcome here. And I do hope to see come back one day if life calms down again, but life must take priority. Again, best of luck!

@KratosMD What are yer blabbing about? You've been here longer than most of us. PushSquare needs you. If you're working 8 hours a day, there's still 16 hours left for PushSquare!

@KratosMD Good luck with that internship, hope it works out for you. You're welcome back here if you ever change your mind.

@Ralizah TTFN, have fun on your trip.

@KratosMD Glad you have found some work, good luck and hopefully it works out for you. Sorry to hear you are leaving us, I always find most of your posts a good read, especially the retro games. I find gaming and this place a good form of escapism for 'normal' life stuffs.

@KratosMD
Well, none of us are perfect, but the journey for self improvement and reflection are pretty much always worth it. Best of luck to you in those endeavours, I wish you success! And we'll see you again when and if you're ready, cheers.

I guess @kyleforrester87 is on poll duty from now on. Fair play, buddy!

@Wesker game of the year - Final Fantasy 7. Or 9. Every year. Until the end of time.

@KratosMD Good luck with your internship!

As for PushSquare...the site ain’t going anywhere (I hope!). We’ll still be here, when you’re ready to rejoin- hopefully sooner rather than later.
Take care!

@KratosMD "But I just waltzed in and started ruining the mood for everyone. And I know it's always been my fault because this is a pattern, it's not a one-time thing. This has been going on for a long time now. So until I'm able to behave more maturely and sensibly, I don't want to be here anymore."

Jeez mate. No idea who you have upset but I for one don't feel that way at all. Everyone is different and have different caveats to their personality, we just roll as always. You have a great taste in games and have given me some spot on advice especially with P4G. Thanks for the work on the main polls and helping out on the GOTY polls too.

Since last year Im in a similar situation to you now, where as I literally have no time to post properly like the good old days. I actually wrote a ditty in this thread about 6 months ago. Life can be tough (or some jam packed you barely have time to sleep) but don't for one second think you have commited a cardinal sin which can't be rectified as far as the forums are concerned.

With your own personality and realisation that you are doing something wrong socially. Balls to that man, you are who you are, try not to change due to peer pressure unless it's pushing you into something illegal. I don't think you have isolated yourself in any way here for what it's worth and without disagreements we couldn't have much of a discussion.

Sorry to hear you leaving.

@KratosMD That really did come out of nowhere.

Honestly, I'm surprised you feel that way. Personally, I've never felt offended by you, and if anything I've never taken you as someone who would offend anyone. The only people that I consider toxic to the site are people who trash the writers or users, and fanboys. You haven't done either, so you're obviously gold in my book. I'd say you've HELPED the community, with the poll, always engaging in discussion, it's something I like to see, even if don't always participate.

As someone who tends to beat himself up for the slightest mistake, I understand how you feel. And I can respect your decision, since I kinda did the same thing a while back. If you want to improve your behavior, being social is the best way to go about it. Hopefully, your internship helps you like you want it to. And hopefully you return when you feel you're ready, you know we'll be waiting.

So best of luck to you. Don't be a stranger, send me a message on PSN if you want. Name's under the post, as usual.

And from one Metal Gear fan to another-

You're Pretty Good.

I'm back. Thanks to everyone who wished me well on my trip.

I managed to read the entirety of Heinlein's Starship Troopers and knock-out a huge chunk of an initial playthrough of Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness on the side.

@KratosMD Oh, wow. Well, I always enjoyed our talks. The passion you feel for gaming is plainly evident in your posts, and I appreciated our time spent together in this regard. Good luck in your future endeavors!
