Announcements of leave and return

[NHWestoN]

But ... you are getting help, right?

[Amazee Dayzee]

I genuinely am sorry that you are going through this and you have these opinions on everybody. But I do hope that you are continuing to try to get assistance with your issues as they can really help a lot in the long-run and make you feel less hopeless.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

I have this strange feeling that I'm not welcome here, and after reading some of the things about some current events, maybe it would be best that I would leave since I'm not getting into any specifics as to why except that my creative works are apolitical but there are some here who would become my enemies when they find that I am a center-right kind of guy on the political isle.

I apologize for having to leave because of something as vulgar as politics but for now I'm starting to pack it up.

K believe we have a quazi-military attitude here of 'Don't ask, don't tell' when it comes to politics. You have a right to your political views and we have a right not to hear them(!) Simply put, most of us here do not care for politics and this isn't the place to raise the issue.

On the other hand, I can't say I've read any of your posts as skewing to a political side in any way, Hira. And, if you think you're being bullied by anyone, tell the moderators. No-one has the right to bully.

Thanks. It wasn't in regard to anyone bullying (as I feel that there's nothing of the sort here) but I'm glad that I was able to maintain neutrality, especially in regards to the creative works as a whole. It's just a feeling I had regarding the internet.

So I guess I can stick around after all. Thank you.

[NHWestoN]

Good! Glad you feel reassured. While an occasional grousing in general or certain policies may surface, people here are usually tongue-in-cheek in their comments rather than cruel, combative, and acidous as you find in other venues. The mods are very militant about dealing with partisan intrusions ... or so thinks I.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Its awesome that you have decided not to leave after all because of what is going on in the world Hiraoka and you aren't gonna hideaway from people who don't want you here! For your information, I don't see any politics in any of your stories or posts so if there are people that are bothering you and using that as an excuse then they are terrible people.

[NHWestoN]

Now, while I agree with Amazz's wise observations (as just abot always), there's nothing wrong with a little "self-insulation". I grew up with the conviction that as an adult, I must become a militantly "informed citizen" to participate in a democratic society. Over the last few years, however, I have instead sought to not become a "disinformed citizen" and limit my consumption of exposure to the antics of certain "duly elected life forms (thank you for that characterization, Uncle Fred). That's just healthy, especially now. That's not coping out, that's recuperation.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

Going to go away from writing until my birthday next year. I have life to worry about at the moment and I don't think I'd be able to crunch out writing as a whole.

Maybe when I'm able to, I would come up with something to celebrate Gokaiger's anniversary when it comes to writing the likes of Sentai. Of course there may be off the cuff stuff every so often but for now I just want to focus on the work I have to do to begin with.

Especially when coming up with my own cast of characters that I could have as my own. Even if it involves help from a AI when it comes to my own creations being brainstormed. as I'm not above that, but I actually put in the actual work of applying the suggestions so I can have my own cast should I do my own thing.

And I just want to save up some money so I can get the possible material made as I write my own stuff.

...Nobody did anything wrong. I just wanted to see what I can make possible as I have other haunts aside from here.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Hope that you can get the money that you need to publish your own works in that case! I am sure that when you do it will be awesome and very much worth the wait!

[NHWestoN]

Agreed!

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

I don't know if I could possibly return since I have so many problems in regards to my personal life. Possibly to the point where it would take me years to actually get my life sorted out because I still live with my family and know that I have no future because I am marked as a dependent ever since I was young.

I don't know how or why but I don't think I have much time because of my addictive nature and the entire world burning around me. Mainly the wicked burning all around but I am feeling rather fine if not demoralized outright to the point where I have no future in any way.

Edit: Don't take this the wrong way, I'm still trying to hold on, but I don't know how long I can last before things goes to the point of no return. But I will still support Rick Griffin's Housepets. Just not in any sort of visible manner.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Joy: Had a long-awaited get together with my family that I was looking forward to for the past few weeks today!

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

Back again. I would need to try and work on something as I need to do something constructive here. Sorry if I wound up demoralized but I'll have to keep on fighting somehow.

[Amazee Dayzee]

That really is all anybody can do these days now is it? If you don't try to move on from everything you just get consumed in the past until it smothers you.

[NHWestoN]

True. Wallowing never works well.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Even though admittedly it does feel really good to do so when you are that upset about something. You just need to take what life gives you and make the most of it.

[IsraeliDisneyFan]

hey guys, just want to tell you I'm alive and well, cancer is almost gone (I hope it does completely by now) and I hope to be more active on the forum once again, plus I have been studying Japanese a lot and I feel like I'm one step closer to become fluent

[Amazee Dayzee]

Glad to hear that you are doing much better than you have been doing last time and that you have nearly beaten your cancer! That disease is so insidious and unfair and I hope in my lifetime we do find a full cure for it because nobody should be dying of it in this day an age of it.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

I am going to take a long break until I'm able to save up enough cash for some new tech I'd like to use. Windows 10 is going to stop getting support soon and I'd like to save up for that Raspberry Pi 5 with the 16 Gigabytes of ram and everything else I will be able to get upon saving throughout my time here.

That, and I need some time offline in a sense. But don't panic. I'll figure something out as I work within my means... At least I'd like to figure out what to write but right now is when I'd like to save up and figure out what I want to write.

[NHWestoN]

... aaaaaand, I gathering you're back. Yay.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

Don't know how long I am able to access the emails tied to my accounts so I decided to cut my losses and focused on a offline life where I have some accounts where I can share with my family all the toys I will be able to earn. Everything that I deserve with money I actually earned.

Although I may have hangups with my biological family, ever since I made a Microsoft account in a car trip, I realized with some help from a Microsoft AI that I can actually share my accounts and subscriptions provided I'm taking precautions to keep the accounts in question with family sharing and all.

I will return eventually... In a new account and although it may take a while, I would ring in my return with some possible stuff like commissions I've paid for with money I've earned and experince regarding this user and his Microsoft Account that is for the whole family.

GAME OVER
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE, FARETHEE WELL

[Amazee Dayzee]

I will be setting the clock to count down the time until you come back and are ready to begin writing again! It shouldn't be too long so I will set it for 4 days.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

Well, here I am Dayzee. Thanks to there being a slew of cads that I'm fed up with both online and off, I had to go to my 'stomping grounds of sanity' just so I don't lose my stonking mind.

[SeanWolf]

Slowly returning to the forums!

So, what happened? Well, after I did the last HousepetZ chapter...I kinda got burned out and needed a break...which evolved into me just not being there mentally for the past few years. Thankfully, thanks to my family, I was able to get out of that slump AND, thanks to an awakening I had last month, I feel all that energy coming back!

Why hello there! I kinda took over your position as King of Fics. Gonna have to fight me for it now, I'm afraid.

[NHWestoN]

Be well, Hira. Thanks for it all.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

I'm just letting everyone know I'm still around. Just AWOL for the time being.

[Amazee Dayzee]

I am sure that we will see you back soon and will be ready for it. Hope that everything is slowing down and not stressing you out a lot!

[NHWestoN]

Going up north for the day and spend a few hours with my brother's widow. The missus and I like to pay a call on her once a month or so, and she has a golden retriever who love to frolic with the skipperkees. Had he lived, my brother would have turned 70 on March the 15th; he's been gone two years and a couple months now. Life's a fragile thing, iddn't it?

Nothing like walking two high-energy dogs on black ice pavement to remind you of that ...

[Amazee Dayzee]

Hope that your sister-in-law is doing alright and adjusting to widowhood as well as can be expected. Also be careful with all of that ice because if you fall and break a hip that is when things start to go downhill if you are older.

[NHWestoN]

She is doing pretty well, Amazz, thanks.

I glanced at a recent article warning that many seniors are injured walking dogs that are too strong and aggressive for them. As you observed also, hip breaks, fractures, and injuries are often accelerants to life departures. The damage reverberates throughout much of the neck, legs, and torso, not just bone but nerve, circulatory, and other organic systems.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Tomorrow on April 3rd I am going away to North Carolina for my sister's wedding and during that time I won't be online.I will be back the the 7th in four days if my flights on the planes in both directions don't end up crashing or falling out of the sky and dying in a fiery inferno. My flight number to North Carolina is MX754 and my return flight is MX755. Hope that you will be praying for me! Not sure if I will have a safe flight with everything that has happened in aviation or the past few months.

[Amazee Dayzee]

I am back and the Xanax that I popped kept me from freaking out about the flight for the most part on the way up there. On the way back we got hit with a lot of turbulence so it didn't help as much but I live!

[NHWestoN]

Between turbulence in the airports, turbulence in inflight aircraft, and turbulence in the national economy, the missus and i are strating to think seriously about "stay-cations".

"But I don't want to go among mad people," said Alice.
"Oh, you can't help it," replied the Cheshire Cat. "Everyone's mad here."

[Amazee Dayzee]

I know that airplane travel is the most safest way to travel from one place to another but in the back of my mind however I just can't help but freak out a bit when we go into a part of the sky that has turbulence. I think I bruised my mother's hand when she gave me it to hold during that time and I squeezed it too hard.

[HiraokaNettoMichio]

...And i'm back again. I realized that all I need is that of a web browser and a desktop operating system that can run the web browser as well and I am currently golden more or less. I'll get to writing again soon. Starting with Tum Master trying to put up with some April Fools type problems where everyone is having issues with a reluctant monster of sorts that isn't fully committed with being a monster and would rather have fun at others expense than cause intentional destruction.

The fact that that monster is spared just to give tum something to work with would prove to be a good choice overall. A much more benevolent force that has the shape-shifting powers of one Mimic Milton.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Glad to see that you have come back and will be writing again for your fanfiction soon after the break! I am sure putting the story aside for a little bit must have helped you to come up with all sorts of new ideas to put in the next chapter! I hope many people take pies to the face though in the April Fools part you will put in and that includes Tum.

Well, that and setting the confusions straight since that reluctant monster would shapeshift to cause mass confusion across the land since the scenario is inspired by the April Fools event in Animal Crossing New Leaf, where you have to figure out whose the real deal and whose the imposter played by the April Fools Event's character that it revolves around.

And that aspect is why Tum is not looking forward to April Fools day since he has to go on patrol and sort out numerous instances of that more benevolent take of Mimic Milton.

In case you don't know. Mimic Milton is my take on Breel's infernal counterpart which I modified her very dark side instance so he can be far more than 'Recolor The Character' as with making him a Male to differ with the Female Breel he's based off of.

[Amazee Dayzee]

Breel was a male already in the actual comic and so was his Infernal counterpart that was turned into the Dino Demon though so not sure why you changed Breel's gender from a male to female. Neither him or Nega Breel were ever females unless you meant to say you turned Nega Breel into a female.
