Hello friends,

So it's been a pretty great several months (or so) being back with you folks. So, with sadness, I announce that I'm going to be taking an indefinitely long break from raiding with Raid: ManHug brought upon largely by our full clear of normal SoO.

Oh, the times we had! We laughed, we cried, we hurled.

My DF tag isn't going anywhere, nor is my wow subscription. I'll be around from time to time and i'll pop into green chat to say hello, but I need a break. Like a real break. It's been about 6 years of uninterrupted raiding and I need to not raid for a while. My reasoning is entirely personal. (By which I mean that my personal / professional life needs a bit more from me right now: I have a tenure review coming up in late August where they'll either vote to fire me or give me a job for life, and I need to focus on being ready, professionally, for that.)

This is also to say this: I love you all. You're amazing people and I wish you all the best. And not just in game either. 

I'm making this all sound too final. It's not. I'll be back, but it'll be a while.

Be good, do well, stay happy, and avoid bullshit.  :)

Best,

Brandon (Scaron / Scaronte / Scarite / and various other "Scar-flavored" alts)

PS: One last thing...if you play league of legends you can friend me there: my summoner name is Skaran.
