Unfortunately, all great things must come to an end - or, at the least, a hiatus.
It's time I take a break from MyVMK and its' community. Being here has taken a toll on my mental health that I most definitely did not expect. The acidity of some people's attitudes, combined with an influx of personal issues and a waning desire to stay, has made me decide to take a few weeks - perhaps even months - off. I haven't a clue when I'll return to this site, if I will. In light of recent events I've found it more important to focus on my mental status rather than the rarity of virtual pixels.
The vast majority of people on here I most certainly will not forget. I was overwhelmed by being welcomed here when I first joined, even though I never played the original. The friends I've made on here - you guys know who you are - I love and cherish dearly, and they have my Skype if they so wish to continue talking to me.
However, there was a small number of people - you people know who you are, too - that made me feel utterly awful about myself. Those who know me well know of my history with unstable mental health, and the negativity of some people have left me feeling akin to the depression I once wallowed in daily. It's awful, and feeling this way because of a virtual community is awful, and unfortunately I can't allow myself to stay in such an environment for such long periods of time.
So, until I feel like I'm emotionally ready to rejoin, I'll be having to say my farewell to MyVMK. Hopefully, it will only be a week or two or three before I'm back. If not, well...it was fun while it lasted.
If you still want to contact me, you're welcome to PM me for my Skype or my Tumblr. Otherwise, goodbye for now, players - both lovely and not so lovely - of MyVMK. It's my hopes that I'll only need a brief break from this site in order to feel refreshed and ready to play.
@Frinklebumper I am so, so sorry I'm unable to get you all of July's items. This was partially why I've been staying the majority of July, but I feel like my own health has to take precedence over this. I'll be giving you the items I have managed to acquire over the month once I return, however.
