Since there's some drama (as per usual) on this site, making a topic, yo.

Have you ever tried to actively quit this lovely place that I call my internet home? And I mean ACTIVELY quit. Not like "oh shit I had to move to London without Internet for 3 months and in that time I got used to not having people sell me their yellow Lenny's". I mean like "Boggart is almost too gay to function and even though his father invented toaster strudel, his burn book is way too mean! He doesn't even go to this school! Mean Girls".

It doesn't necessarily have to be cold turkey, but I mean actively distancing yourself from the site for whatever reason. And a better question: Why did you come back? o.o And you older members lurking without posting, I see you in here! Why do you come by all the time but not post? Or why did you come back and still post?

I actually tried to quit I believe 2 or 3 times. First time was within my first year because I felt no one liked me QQ. Then another time was due to much drama with the staff (and now I'm on staff. Isn't that ironic, don't ya think? IT'S LIKE RAAIAIAIIIIIIIIIiiIiIiiIIIIIIINNNNNNNN ON YOUR WEDDDDDDINNNG DAY).

And if you've never thought of rage quitting: Are you new, or wtf is wrong with you?

never tried/wanted to quit so no point in me discussing any further

For a little while I quit and got interested in other things but I came back once I got back into Neopets and I love the forum now. =) Well I was not active so I do not know if you would call it quitting.

You two are clearly just to agreeable

Or immune to being butthurt. Do you two have butts?

Well I know Strat does...

The people who have really pissed me off didn't stay around long enough for me to rage quit. I'm a passive person though, most of the time.

[Josh]

Yup, did it for like six years. Was an adequate break for me.

How could I ever forget?

And this is why I come back to the site. Strat's ass.

I've actively been trying to quit... guess I really did earn the title Most Addicted Member though, I can't seem to shake this place.

As a result however I have found myself posting less frequently and ironically enough more people seem to like the things I say when I'm not posting 20+ things daily.

The reason for my want to distance myself from Codex was that I'd realized that my immature tendencies that I had fun displaying here grew old. Got tired of arguing over every little thing that I said. Despite the fact that I liked being the person I was projecting I found the fact people were actually starting to like me disconcerting. When I'm not being an ass to everyone people actually like me and I have enough communities around the internet that like and respect me, so I decided to quit.

Still don't know why I stick around, I don't play Neopets anymore, I don't particularly like a good chunk of the people here, and the people I do like here don't like me. So...

So far no one has said "to get away from my addiction so I can get a job" or anything. Which is either good or bad, depending on the legitimacy of the statement

I would never put the internet above my job o_0

I probably could have spent much less time on here and spent it studying in the past o.o

Well I can understand studying Before I took a break I spent a lot more time on Neocodex than doing school work xD However, I have much higher obligations now, like supporting a family.

[Nymh]

Yeah, back in April.

I will be inactive for the indefinite future. I have real life thigs that I have been neglecting and Codex needs to not take my time from those things anymore.

See you on the flippity flip

Then later that same day they offered me the position as Moderator, and I was promoted 4 days later. I thought it was funny that I had literally just said I was leaving indefinitely and they were like NOPE

[Boggart]

Yeah, back in April.

Boggart, I'm pretty sure you have ADHD.

[Boggart]

Boggart, I'm pretty sure you have ADHD.

I wish. I self-diagnosed myself with that as a way to get into medicine. didn't work.

[Mishelle]

I stopped coming around when I went on hiatus from neo. I didn't try to I just kind of forgot about it. But I came back to neo so I came back here

[redlion]

Yeah, back in April.

That was my doing. I told SL to promote you or face a face rape session with noit.

I've taken a few breaks over the years, but usually not for more than a few months. If I weren't lazy I'd check my posts for gaps, but that's quite a few pages of posts

[Random]

I took a few breaks but never planned on leaving permanently.
I've come to terms with the fact that as long as this forum exists, I will be a part of it.
