It's been a pretty decent ride. To be honest though it was never really my scene. It was just all I had. I made literally no accomplishments while playing starcraft, just finding something to do with my time.

I was really bad at this game and noone will be sad to see me go. I brought zero currency to the scene, and I was too awkward in the chat.

Started Brood in grade seven when I got out first family DSL with an LCD monitor. had great mutalisk skills. Played a lot of temple. went like 90-300 type of stuff. Watched Jaedong and Flash's era of Broodwar, I liked Hwasin but he was a cheater. I relate to that. It just didn't work, I never hacked or anything you know but I looked at the sites and tried everything to be better than I was. That's why it's over. I'm not that competitive,

I will be switching over into Metal Gear Solid which is a very good game. I will be requesting a ban from this website.

sounds like a ragequit to me.

i mean there's nothing wrong with leaving the scene if you dont enjoy it anymore but you don't need to get yourself banned and make a rant-like-blog about how u accomplished nothing and contributed nothing. it's untrue and unnecessary.

good luck in your future endeavours . we'll be waiting patiently here to proxy gate you when u come back ; )

its immature, i used to do this back in the day on a different site, now i realize how dumb i was.

if you can sucessfully leave esports like that, you never really loved it. I for my part will probably play more or less competetive games for the rest of my life. its simply in my nature.

Sounds about the same as how i talked about osu before my break a few months ago.
I returned with more motivation than ever to improve.

And this happened with all things i'm passionate about. After a while, just the thought of playing excites me. I'm hoping this'll be the case here.

Requesting a ban after 29 posts is like breaking up with someone before the first date.

According to his story, he has been watching since Broodwar, which must mean that he's been a lurker for very long.

Conclusion: OP registered his account just so he could request a ban.
