Hello all... and goodbye...
I have decided to put the farms to bed once and for all (well probably anyway) as of this Friday, 21st February. At level 94, I haven't done it all but I've done a lot of it and I have no regrets in having played the game on the Australian server (that's the level 94 one) and lately on the English one (at level 30 after 3 weeks without buying or using any gold). I've been thinking about leaving the game for some months now, not because I don't enjoy the game; in fact, the exact opposite is true. I enjoy it too much and it is taking too much time out of my life that I really should be devoting to other things.
Having Obsessive Compulsive habits, I don't like to leave things half done, so this means that I often end up online for 8 or more hours per day because there is just one more harvest only 3 minutes away much of the time. Having two farms on different servers (of course), this only compounds the problem for me. Basically, this game is like an addiction for me and I have worked out that the only way for me to get back some time is for me to go "cold turkey" and quit it altogether. I just couldn't bear to see heaps of people go streaking past me in the XP rankings (currently I'm at 22nd on the Oz server) if I was to slow down and spend less time playing.
The other thing that takes up quite a bit of my time is this Forum. When I see something introduced into the game that I feel is unfair or biased towards gold users (of which I am one) to the detriment of non-gold users, such as the Blue Barns of Sell Mission Death, I feel the urge to go into print to voice my distaste for it. Of course, then I also have to come back to see what replies have been made to my posts. Most of my posts have been made in the last 3 months or so and you will see from the number of posts I've made that I've been busy here.
I've met many wonderful people through this game and I have the greatest admiration for them, including the unpaid, overworked Moderators of this forum, Kat Nip and Farmer Tess. This admiration extends to those people who have had opposing views to mine but have still been able to explain their views logically to me. The people in my Oz co-op have been very tolerant towards me, especially when I have blitzed the Chat from time to time and they have also very kindly laughed at the appropriate time at my jokes when I've told them there.
Oops, speaking of wonderful people, I'm in Olle Cooperativ on the Eng 1 server. if anyone is on that server and looking for a good co-op to join, they could do a lot worse than to apply to Olle Cooperativ, currently ranked 4th on the server. That's the one I am in until I finish up on Friday... have been with them for only a short time but they make you feel like family and they are very helpful, especially for newbies.
Incidentally, if anyone on the Aus 1 server wants to join a really great co-op, there is a vacancy in Mouse House from Friday evening after I leave the game. I won't say that I'm leaving forever because you just never know... but it's highly unlikely that I'll return. I am going to just leave my two farms to lie fallow though... I'm not bulldozing them "just in case". My gold and farm$, however, will be donated to the two co-ops as compensation "for pain and suffering".
Good luck and good farming to all.

bye ;(
Goodluck in your life and i'm sure lots of us forum readers will be checking for your return! ^_^
As someone who is lucky in being able to call you a friend...I shall miss you terribly. I can not imagine this game, or forum, without you...and your warm and wonderful sense of humor! However, as your friend I must support what you have stated is the right thing to do for you and your personal life. I wish you and yours the very best that life has to offer.
I wish you all the best with whatever path your life takes from this day forward and if it includes us once again, that's a real bonus for us all. Take care and all the best for the future.
Kat.
Your ability to think fairly with regard to the game and its players was always documented in the forums in a manner that was well received and understood.
Selfishly, we at Misfits, do hope one day you return but if not, fairwell good friend, have a wonderful and happy life... you will be missed and remembered.
Cheers

How will the farming community survive, without our Crusader to write (hehe) the wrongs?
Who will beat their manly chest in indignation? (oohh I might swoon at the thought)
And tell it straight?
Will we survive without our daily dose of whit, charm, talent, vocab, expertise, and sheer cheek!!!
Hmmm already I have someone new behind me on the leader board....it just isn't the same sigh.
So my fellow queenslander, enjoy the great outdoors (watch that sun tho) and if ever Anne gets sick of you hanging around too much....you know we are waiting with open arms and smiles on our faces!
I've enjoyed reading your posts and appreciate the contribution you have made to the game. Good luck, farewell and don't look back!
Non
You have made me moan 'not again please no" and made me laugh with your posts. Your arguments were always constructive and most of your posts were funny. You will be missed by many.
Take care of you UT, and one day I hope to see you in the forums again.
Take Care of yourself and I am sure everyone is hoping that you will come back.
I think most readers can see where I could go with this? You really shouldn't provide me with so much ammunition.... but I will constrain myself and merely say "Wow! I really must be a lady killer!"
Good luch and take care!
I am used to you spamming my inbox daily, it just doesn’t feel right, now that you’ve decided to leave :P
I was fortunate enough to be in the same co-op as you for quite a while and I really enjoyed our almost daily banter whilst inevitably clogging up the co-op chat box. But what I will miss most is your somewhat sly sense of humour that brightens an otherwise boring forum (for me personally).
I wish you all the best as you start the next chapter of your life.
Take care!

As for "sly", sometimes maybe but at other times "subtle" might be used? a.k.a. "like a sledgehammer".
I've just got onto the UK server and have applied for your co-op there BTW.
All the best Sir.
I have now sold off all my produce and donated all farm$ and gold to the co-ops on the two servers I was playing on. I did, however, set all the production buildings on a production run, "just in case". Good luck to everyone and I hope you all continue to enjoy playing the game... and remember: it's only a game but play hard anyway!!
