Retiring from core and leaving Tamriel Rebuilt

Post by Vegor »

Yes, this time it is final and not just a short burst of agression. You probably all noticed that I haven't been active over the last couple of weeks. The main reason behind this is the new university year which is taking up most of my time. Another reason is that my HD recently crashed and all my Tamriel Rebuilt files were lost. Altogether I have lost joy in modding and prefer to spend the little free time that I have on other things than modding for the project. I might pick up on modding for the project in the near or distant future, but I feel I can no longer be an administrator because of all the duties tied to that position.

I surely had fun modding for this project. From the start I've been interior modding, later I picked on reviewing and heading the review department and finally I attempted to be an administrator of this behemoth of a project. All you guys have formed the finest group I've ever worked with on the internet and the dedication to the project and modding quality many of you have shown is mindstaggering. I surely believe this is the most ambitious mod for any game ever and the amount of quantity and quality shown so far surpasses any third party game modification I have ever seen.

I feel bad for leaving you while the project is in such a rocky time, with the recent shift in the core and the coming Oblivion causing a stir in the entire Morrowind modding community, but staying would only end up in me being a dead weight slowing down the progress of this project.

I really hope you'll be able to finish Morrowind province and perhaps even more, so all work from me and all modders before and after me has not been in vain. Yes, I have modded for the fun of it, as have many others, but I still would like to see a final result.

Following in my footsteps, the next admin will be Vernon. I have great faith in his abilities and think he will do a great job. He's already proven his skills in a great variety of fields, from texturing to exterior creation, and I'm sure he'll do at least as well as I did.

Finally, I'd like to thank a few people with whom I've had something special here at the project.
First of all zephyr. I have great respect for you and surely enjoyed talking to you on all those occassions.
Starcrunch, you're a great modder and a good guy. Good luck heading the review department.
Majra, though you've already left as well, I've had a great time working with you on Dun Akafell and always had great respect for you.
And all current core members: Stalker, Dexter, Lady Nerevar, hermit, Vernon, kingfish, Theo and Morden. You're all great modders and great people.
Finally all other members at the project. I encourage you to stick around this project for as long as possible and to have fun while you're at it. It's the greatest modding project out there and you'll never find such a concentration of talented, dedicated modders anywhere else.

I'll be dropping in from time to time to see how you guys are doing. I wish you all well. Good luck, and farewell.

It's been a pleasure working with you Beg, you're a great modder and more importantly, a great guy. I have great respect for your achievements here at the project; you've pulled off some pretty incredible stuff. It is sad to see you go, but I know you have thought this decision through. I hope everything goes well for you in college, with your band and all of that other crazy real life stuff.

Namarie, Vegor. It's practically needless to say, you've had a huge impact on the project. Even when I first joined, long before you were in the Core, you were a figure to look up to. Hate to see you go, but, well, I suppose shit happens.

Take care of yourself,

I couldn't resist this...
Yes, this time it is final n not jizzay a shiznort bizzurst of agression so i can get mah pimp on. You probably all noticed that I haven't been active over tha last couple of weeks paper'd up. The mizzy reason behind this is tha new university year which is clockin' up most of mah time. Motherfucka reason is that mah HD recently crashed n all mah Tamriel Rebuilt files wizzle lost from tha streets of tha L-B-C. Altogetha I hizzle lost joy in modd'n n hustla ta spend tha shawty free tizzle tizzy I hizzy on otha th'n thizzay mobbin' fo` tha project. I might pizzle up on blunt-rollin' fo` tha project in tha near or distant future, but I feel I can no longa be an adminizzles coz of all tha duties tied ta that position.

I surely had fun modd'n fo` this project. Frizzay tha stiznart I've been interior modd'n, lata I picked on review'n n heezeeing tha review department n finally I attempted ta be an adminizzles of this behemoth of a project. All you guys hizzle formed tha finest group I've ever worked wit on tha internet n tha dedicizzles ta tha project n modd'n quality many of you have shown is mindstagger'n . Im a bad boy wit a lotta hos. I surely believe this is tha mizzay ambitious mod fo` any gizzy ever n tha amount of quantity n quality shown so far surpasses any third party game modificizzles I have ever seen.

I feel bad fo` blunt-rollin' you while tha project is in sizzuch a rocky time, wit tha recent shift in tha core n tha com'n Oblivion ballin' a S-T-to-tha-izzir in tha entire Morrowind ho-slappin' communizzles but ballin' would only end up in me being a dead weight slow'n D-to-tha-izzown tha progress of this project.

I really hope you'll be able ta finish Morrowind province n perhaps even more, so all W-to-tha-izzork fizzy me n all playa before n afta me has not bizzy in vain. Yes, I hizzle modded fo` tha fun of it, as have many otha, but I stizzill would like ta see a final result.

Chillin' in mah footsteps, tha next admin will be Vernon. I have bootylicious faith in his abilities n think he wizzy do a bootylicious job. He's already proven his skills in a bootylicious variety of fields, friznom textur'n ta exterior creation, n I'm sure he'll do at least as wizzay as I did . Boo-Yaa!.

Finally, I'd like ta thizzank a few thugz wit whom I've had sum-m sum-m special hizzle at tha project aww nah.
Fiznirst of all zephyr . Keep'n it gangsta dogg. I have bootylicious respect fo` you n surely enjoyed rapping ta you on all those occassions.
Starcrunch, you're a bootylicious poser n a good guy . Aint no killin' everybodys chillin'. Good luck heezeeing tha review department aww nah.
Majra, though you've already left as wiznell, I've had a bootylicious time mobbin' wit you on Dun Akafell n always had bootylicious respect fo` you.
And all current core gangsta . Hollaz to the East Side: Stalka, Dexta, Lady Nerevar, hermit, Vernon, kingfish, Theo n Morden . Put ya mutha fuckin choppers up if ya feel this.. You're all bootylicious modda n bootylicious people.
Finally all otha memba at tha project. I encourage you ta stick around this project fo` as long as possible n ta have fun while you're at it so you betta run and grab yo glock. It's tha greatest blingin' project out there n you'll nigga find sizzuch a concentrizzles of talented, dedicated modda anywhere else.

I'll be dropp'n in from time ta time ta see how you guys is do'n with my hoes on my side, and my strap on my back. I wizzle you all W-to-tha-izzell in all flavas. Good luck, n farewell fo' sheezy.

It's sad to see TR's oldest still-active member go.(I think)

On a brighter note; congratulations to Vernon!

Ack! All the people who joined around when I did are up and leaving. Makes me feel old. Anyway, I can understand where your coming from, my university classes take up no small amount of my time--but luckily my computer hasn't yet exploded. Well, anyway, fare thee well, and good luck to you, too.

I never talked to you personally, but many parts of TR show how much you loved this project. I wish you well in the only way I know how:

Well, this is certainly a major loss to the project, we're gonna need to find someone new to be an evil pesimistic dictator. ;)

Seriously though, good luck with life Vegor, you've done a hell of a lot for TR, far more than most, and dispite the fact that we could never seem to agree about my interiors, I salute you for that!

Er, and this post does not mean I'm back, I just had to give my own little farewell to Vegor :p
