Completely Unrelated / Leaving Qhimm.com
« on: 2006-10-26 15:05:36 »
Hey all,
I'm leaving Qhimm.com. My reasons for this are many, but among them are:
1. Certain people on the boards, one in particular.
2. The overall deteriorated state of the boards.
3. Too busy with everything other than being online, reading and posting. Think University, friends and so on.
I do not know if anyone cares about this at all, I just thought I'd let everyone know. I haven't been posting for over 2 months now, so I had practically left already.
This is just the official announcement, I think.
Let me add a little more explanation to the first two points.
Ad1:
I've become more and more annoyed by certain members here, which I will not name, because I am not out to turn this thread into yet another fight between people.
Let's just say these people seem to be able to somehow continue creating shitty-threads or making shitty-posts.
I'm very disappointed with one particular member, and his ways of treating me. I believe them to be unfair. I will not add anymore to this either. It comes down to the fact that the entire situation does not improve my enjoyment of Qhimm.com.
Ad2:
I'm just going to say this the way it is. The boards have deteriorated badly.
Qhimm.com isn't near what it used to be and nowadays even far away from the good things going on when the situation was already slightly "bad".
Stupid people keep creating stupid threads, fighting over stupid arguments and finding more and more ways to make fun of, attack or insult other members.
Besides this, the forums have become somewhat of a helpdesk for new people to just post one message, get an answer and get the fuck out of here.
New, fun threads aren't created anymore, and when they are spammed full of silly posts, using grammar that isn't even near Engrish.
I know all too well, that I myself have also been a part of this and contributed to the above mentioned things. I "understand" that and, though it was fun at the time itself, now I am not proud of some of my posts. It was, and still is, unnecessary and I hope that in whatever the future may hold for the forums it will not happen anymore. I fear it will though.
Basically it means I do not feel the need to post anymore. I have noticed I'm not the only one in this, more "older" members have been around a lot less and some have even left as well.
I'm not saying the boards have completely lost their touch or right to exist, because Q-Gears is still going strong and there are good threads in both TR and GT.
The heart of the forums is still beating, the body however has started to die slowly, but surely.
There are many things these boards need, but I am not going to summarize them here, because they are well known.
Last, but certainly not least, I would like to thank Qhimm for granting me the possibility to be here, for 3 years of my life, and with that the time I was able to spend with many great people.
(And hope to continue to do with some of them.)
It's been fun, it really has. Too bad it has to end like this.
For those of you that care: I will miss you and this place. See you someday, somewhere.
