Off into the sunset.

Off into the sunset.
There comes a time for everything I suppose. Now is the time for me to hang up my hat and say adieu to my hobby that I loved for so many years. High school is a bitch, I don't really have time for this anymore. If I could I would. All of my freetime is either spend studying or sports. I haven't been active much this year. It hasn't been official yet, so I'll say it, I'm retiring from micronations. Micronationalism has changed, and I haven't changed much with it. Certain people want me to leave, mentioning no names, so I guess it's time for me to leave. I might come back sometime in the future, at least a few months or so. Amokolia will always be my home. I have one last song,
O ye'll tak' the high road and I'll take the low road,
An' I'll be in Amokolia afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' River Vaten.
O ye'll tak' the high road and I'll take the low road,
An' I'll be in Amokolia afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' River Vaten.

Re: Off into the sunset.
A pity to see you go, Jess. While I haven't always agreed with what you've done, I have seen you grow over the years and you were on your way to becoming a fine micronationalist. I hope high school goes well for you.

Well, I don't think anybody wants you to go, Jess, but if you feel you have to, then I wish you all the best, and that you had some great contributions. Best of luck!

Re: Off into the sunset.
As with all micronational "retirements", it's sad to see you go, Jess. It's been an interesting past few years
Hope everything goes well out in the "real world" and maybe even see you back soon

He did something stupid in Victoria - I don't know what - so he's run away.
He'll be back to piss us all of in a few months, don't you worry.

Good to see you've learnt to spell before your departure! See you round Jessie boy.

Yes, everyone, let's make sure we get in line to give the whipping boy one last smack.
Maybe in a year or two, Jess? Remember, you can never escape the hobby, especially if you announce your departure.

Re: Off into the sunset.
What you want do, if you are set on leaving is do what Jeremy did. A sort of 'school massacre' where he just went berserk with his mouse and deleted each and every last trace of his Micronational existence...
