That's poop. Don't laugh like that.
The explanation for this video is not as hilarious as any speculation as to why my 2 year old son is so infuriated by a pile of dog poop, or to the video's real world application- to make any situation better in 20 seconds. But... On 2/18/13 I took my son
New job = chillest. Job. Ever.
So apparently Shadowraze is coming to an end. It is a sad day, indeed. I wasn't there from the start, and I won't be there in the end, but I was there in between for a great majority of it. If anything, the passing of Shadowraze will be bittersweet. Do not mourn for Shadowraze, but look back upon it with fondness and cherish those memories, and remember that those wonderful experiences helped make you into the person you are today. When you think of Shadowraze, think of your first time on the server, the first time you saw the spawn, be it the castle or the desert theme, and how it filled you with wonderment and awe and stole your breath away; remember how inspired you were by the beauty of it all. Remember how you thought "Wow, the owners and the staff of this server put so much work into all of this, they must really care." That is what Shadowraze strove to bring you; an experience you'd never forget.
I've made friends on Shadowraze, and I've made enemies on Shadowraze, and I'm sure you have, too. But who cares about those enemies? Remember the friends you've made here, and remember those enemies, too, but forgive those enemies, because soon you'll forget why they even were. You'll look back upon your memories and think of all the fun times you had, and they'll stay strong. Those negative moments you had, be it you were griefed, camped, or someone just said something that rubbed you the wrong way, you won't even remember that stuff down the road, because it didn't matter then, it doesn't matter now, and it won't matter later. Sure, most everyone from Shadowraze will never meet each other, will never know each other "in real life," but it doesn't make those friendships any less real; it's still another human being on the other side of that screen, behind that skin - Another human being with hopes and dreams and feelings, hobbies and interests, and most importantly a heart; a heart that they allowed themselves to open up to you, and that's pretty fucking awesome.
To those that remember me, and to those who never knew me, I have but one thing to say to you: Fight for your friendships. You have phones, you have Skype, you have Mumble and Ventrilo and Team Speak and Raid Call, and you have Enjin. Seriously, I mean it - FIGHT FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIPS. Don't throw them away. Don't let them become meaningless. Don't drift apart. I foolishly threw all of mine away, and every day of my life since, I've regretted it. Friends are friends, regardless of how far apart physically are, regardless of how many times you've hung out together and grabbed pizza. They still care about your day, how you're doing, they want your shoulder to lean on when they need someone, and they want your shoulder to lean on when they need someone. These people have let you into their lives, and that takes a lot of courage and trust and love. Show them that same courage, that same trust, and that same love they've shown you. Make it worth it for each other. It's special; cherish it.
Shadowraze may be ending, and it may make you sad, but at the same time you should be glad that it makes you sad, because that means you were able to experience something so amazing and so awesome, that you were able to feel this way in the first place. I still think of Shadowraze from time to time, I don't think it's anything I'll ever forget. And I think of all those that I've hurt and all of those that I'll never get to meet. I know, it sounds weird, right? How can you think of someone you've never met? But I do. Each person I didn't get to meet is a missed opportunity to forge a new friendship. Scarlet, Natalie, Cheeze, Iron, Raz, Bobby and Bob, Nav and Lila and Luth, and everybody else as there are far too many to name, I still think about all of you from time to time. To those of you that I've hurt: I truly am deepy, everly sorry for everything, and every day I regret my stupidity and I regret my actions and humbly ask for your forgiveness. To those of you that I never knew: Don't do what I did. Don't be an idiot. Don't throw your friendships away.
To those of you I once called friends, if you ever want to reconnect and start anew, you know where to find me.
Your picture is horrifying. And to answer your question - because I do not play there anymore.
I think you're great. And I think you're well rounded.
