There will always be a place in the ABL Caihead. Can't offer my services for Chinese BW I'm afraid, but gl with your break.

4000 to 5000 has probably taken me as long as 0 - 4000.
Lately I've been posting more but spending less and less time here, I guess I've honed my shitpost/oneliner sniping ability to its ultimate form.

yeah im actually at a wall myself. i used to be posting like at least 15 times a day. now i can barely reach 5. i guess making LR threads during hybrid league helped with the 200+ per week when i still did that lol.

gl with your break! plz continue to run abl

You may not think you're a famous member of the community but I did notice that you haven't been posting in the BW section as much as you did before. Some of your stuff has been pretty useful and a good contribution to the community, but if you need to take a break or quit then so be it.

My burn out: June 2012 to January 2013. Thought I wouldn't have the time to come back. Thought the people from way back then wouldn't be there anymore. Thought I wouldn't be able to connect anymore. Thought it wouldn't be the same. Thought it would be useless to come back.

Made a hesitant first post after months a few days ago and BOOOM -> TL hit me in the face.

Yeah, you'll be back!

You don't need LR to have conversations.


I'm not a big name community figure or even a great contributor to TL, to where I'm not sure if my presence will even be missed. But I would definitely miss TL if I made the choice to leave it once and for all. It's quite sobering to think of all the hours that I've also invested on this site, seeing old faces either go inactive, get banned, or request perms, In any case I would appreciate it if anybody would like to specifically help take over making BW threads related to the Chinese community since that position seems largely unfilled right now and there is still some great community and tournaments going on.


Just do what you want man. we've all invested a lot of time in being where we want to be. If you less in touch than before, just do what you want to do.

I've hit my peak end of 2011 and now I'm just sailing til the end of university before I bow out.

I think you need staff access to get to that information. If you ask a mod nicely they might do it for you.

I don't post as much as I used to, but that's fine. Without professional BW, TL's just a different site than it was before, and so I logically spend less time on it. However, I post in other sections of the site, and there's always cool people to talk about and interesting subjects to discuss, so there's no real reason to leave. Just post when you feel like it, and whenever something really piques your interest, like TLS or SOSPA, then you get back into it!

Also, I do really appreciate your contributions to the Brood War section, and I've read every one of your reminiscence threads. Also, you beat my team 4-0 in the Fantasy StarCraft game! Don't leave the community before I get a chance at revenge!
