Well, I've contemplated it for a bit and I've come to a decision. Effective immediately, I am retiring for the moment from W*I*G*, WHOA, DU, and any other feds I've been apart of as of lately. It's not because I hate them mind you, more that I hate half assing and I don't want to be apart of them unless I can give my fully commitment. Sadly, as of late I seem to have lost my zest for e-feddery. That's why today, or technically tonight over here, I am officially announcing my retirement as an e-fed writer. Now granted, that does not mean I will never write a match again or that I won't pull a Terry Funk at some point, but lately I've found it increasingly hard to sit down and put promos and matches from keyboard to computer.
Now, as for whether this means that I'll also be retiring from this board or any others I belong to, well that's another story. I have no intention of leaving any of them and I'll still be around to least offer assistance with creative such as coming up with new match ideas, new PPV ideas, and stuff like that. It just means I more than likely won't be writing any of them, not because I'm lazy, but because I don't want to have to throw something together that I'm not completely happy with.
I know that in the past few months, many others have retired/left W*I*G* as well, Andy Duke, Synthy Eris, possibly Hardcore Hensley... but I assure you that just because I'm stepping down does not mean W*I*G* will be going bottom up. Khali AKA Reynaldo Fernandez will still be around to run things and if necessary, we might just ask someone else to help run things if need be. And of course I'll be more than happy to help out with things like posting PPVs or anything like that if necessary.
I've just been feeling extremely burnt out as of late and though this probably isn't the first time I've done this, I think this one might be my swan song. Though I do plan on one more match before I head off into the sunset, though I won't spoil the details on that here. Not only that, but I also won't be abandoning certain other projects, one of you knows what I mean.
I'm sorry if I dropped the ball with anybody feud wise, as if I could manage it, I would be more than happy to finish my previous commitments. Right now though, I think I'd have to force myself in order to do so and more often than not when I force myself to write, it usually suffers. So regarding all of my current characters, two of them are now controlled by another writer, who wishes to remain anonymous, and the rest will probably just vanish for now.
Sorry if this is coming off a little long winded by the way. I've been e-fedding probably more than alot of you and I figure it's probably time anyway to let the new blood here take the torch, for as much at that's worth. I won't spit out another melodramatic farewell speech, the fact I'm stickying this is attention whorish enough I suppose
So that's it. Thanks for the memories everybody, all the great feuds I've had the privilege to be apart of and all the great writers I've gotten to work with. This is Mr B/Vert/Forth the e-fed writer... signing off.
