I Guess This is Goodbye...
Sorry if this posted twice, i forgot it got really long and i was meant to edit it.
The start of February will mark my 8th year playing this game. This game will forever be one of if not the most magical thing I will ever experience. This community will always be the most supportive and caring bunch of people I will ever meet. You guys are truly some of the most kind-hearted and caring people I know and I am fortunate to know that I can call a lot of you friends (if not family).
Real-life has finally caught up to me and I no longer have the time nor desire to enter Alterra anymore – I think it’s finally lost its charm for me. I do not think the game is headed in a good direction right now (my reasons for that can be seen here,) and I no longer feel a desire to log in the way that I once used to.
I do not regret any of the time I spent in Alterra, it truly felt more like time spent with friends and family than a videogame. That is truly something magical and something that I have never seen recreated in any other community.
I wouldn’t have stuck around for 8 years without my amazing friends. I cannot thank you all enough for everything you’ve done for me over the years. It’s been an absolute pleasure getting to know all of you and I do hope we can keep in contact with Skype or Discord (if you don’t already have it, PM me).
There are hundreds of you I could mention, but I’d just like to give an extra thanks to those of you who made my time spent in Alterra truly worth it (this got a little long):
Zac:
I still find it funny that someone I met in a video-game when I was 11 can turn into one of my best friends in real life. Thanks for everything <3
Darth:
I know you may never see this, but to this day you are truly one of the best friends I will ever have and I am glad to say that we crossed paths. We had countless fun adventures and I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for you. If you ever see this, please open skype, I miss you!

Dolloway:
Ever since I was a forum lurk back in the day I always admired your hardwork and dedication to this community – I am glad to now call you a friend. It’s unfortunate we only got to know each other recently. I’ve loved every minute that we have stayed up talking or playing games. I know we’ll keep in contact and I am looking forward to hearing about how you go in law school ;) thank you for everything you’ve done both for me and this community. Please never stop being you.
Rose:
You’re such a genuine and kind-hearted person. I’m glad we’re now friends. It’s unfortunate we got to know each other so late in the piece. Thank you for constantly letting me rant, you helped me through some rough times and I cannot thank you enough.

I don’t know you all too well, but your humour both in game and on the forums has always been one of the best parts of my day. Thanks for being you.

You’re the best, truly. Thanks for always being there for me when I pm’d you, the offer is obviously there for you also. I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for you, I owe you the world. Pm me some time, we have lots to catch up on :)

Your presence both on forums and in game was the best. You’ve always been there for me, and for that I cannot thank you enough. Thanks for getting me lowkey hooked on brawl stars ;)

You’re perhaps the kindest and sweetest person I have ever met. I’ve loved the few times we have spoken in-game and it’s unfortunate I never really got to know you much better than that. I hope life post-PL is treating you as well as you deserve!
Sunny:
Your dedication to this community is admirable. Thanks for the confidence boosts leading up to my exams, I couldn’t have done it without you!]
This community is the best and I have made many memories that I know I’ll cherish forever thanks to my time spent here.
