Retiring from TMSNG...

[SLJ]

Dear crew and all members,

I'm sorry to say that I will be retiring from The Mahou Sensei Negima Guild.

I actually first came to Gaia in search of places to RP, since I was a very avid RPer and loved anime. I and a few friends started up a Final Fantasy guild, and had a lot of fun there until the activity dwindled and the RPs died. At that point I handed over ownership to a friend. A few months later, I had become engrossed with Negima thanks to a few friends. I looked around on Gaia for a guild to join, but realized there was none! o_o So I took the liberty to get one up and running myself. ^_^ I recruited a few gaians, and had soon acquired an awesome crew. (I actually had in mind of starting a Negima RP... But then after I started TMSNG, I guess that even then I didn't have time to do so whee )

I never imagined that this guild of ours would have grown so much so quickly since that time - Members, subforums and posts. I'm truly lucky to have been able to be the Captain of such a great guild. However, I no longer have the time to tend to any RP, favourite thread or guild on Gaia frequently. (Can you believe that we get about 5 new members each week? Reading through each application and sending a welcome PM to each new member is exciting but time-consuming... Not to mention having to skim through threads to make sure people are adhering to the rules... And then dealing with any problems that should arise by PM... And then planning with other crew members about future events... And... I think you get the point. sweatdrop )

I've entered my final year of high school, and must achieve high marks to get into U of T xd (the University of Toronto, not Tokyo I'm afraid ^^ wink . Unlike Keitaro Urashima (for those familiar with Love Hina), I plan on getting in the first time around. Therefore, I must put my complete focus into my studies and can't have me finding myself clicking on a link to Gaia when I feel lazy. gonk I have a habit of procrastinating, so any temptation to do something else and get carried away must go. crying I've decided to put away my Playstation, rid my computers of online games and retire from Gaia, among other sites. I hope you all can understand, and wish me luck for the new year. I request that no one tries to persuade me otherwise, nor PM me for gold/items. Thank you.

Even though I am gone, I hope that you will all welcome Fuka Narutaki to the new Captain position and continue to frequent this guild.

I will be donating 50 000 gold to the guild by giving 25 000 to Fuka and 25 000 to Setsuna, so expect a lot of events and good prizes to come from them!

Thanks for all the fun.
Farewell.
