I need to quit (or at least scale back) this game so I can concentrate on other stuff (like other games). I would like to say thanks to Trey9 and Dead Alliance for giving me a first shot in a 20men alliance. Thanks to Pucco and A-Force for growing my game and getting #6 in the first ever season. (and char siew, never forget char siew). And of course, my SHIELDBros (and sis) for bringing me into the top alliance in the game. Sure was fun terrorising the LRs with you all. To the forum in general, thanks too. It was mostly good, some bad, but sure is getting uglier. In my 221 days in the game, I still remained completely F2P, not a single cent was spent. And I have achieved two #1 out of the three seasons, plenty of LR, NHB, PVP, PVE wins. 9 maxed characters. Made plenty of friends and no foe (i hope). I am laoahpeh. And I am a MPQ addict. You will be missed and you have been nothing but classy. Also, grats on rocking our bracket. It was an honor to finish a not so close second to you, haha.

Its a sad day.. You are a student of this game and we need more of your kind here.. I hope you ll enjoy your time outside of mpq and secretly i will brace for your come-back.. As for myself as i see more and more valuable players quitting in droves and see more and more punks getting on board.. I will see how season 4 unfolds and at the end deeply reflects upon my leaving the game.. I feel this time is coming quick for me..

Neuromancer wrote: Laoahpeh was a perfect example of the original free-to-playability of this game. That ability has diminished, but it's still achievable (just a longer grind now). We're rapidly approaching a year of MPQ, and the lack of endgame content is seeing the old-guard drop off. D3 needs to make more non-competitive PvE storylines beyond the prologue, as both the grind & lack of stimulating rewards seems to have caused a hemorrhage of players. It's unfortunate that all the devs can think to inject is new characters. It appears they're backing the wrong horse.
