I'm leaving guys.

[Gman Russell]

Dearest Shireroth,

I've been doing alot of thinking about my past with Shireroth, my present, and my future with this beautifull nation. I find myself posting only in random spurts, going days without posting, and then demangoeing like a crazed weasel to try and understand and update on whats been going on. The truth is, Shireroth is not holding my attention like it used to. I've never been much on the international scene either, so when people come from other nations, I feel like I should know them, but I dont, and while they are definitely not unfriendly, they bring with them different cultures and ideas to Shireroth that make me feel like i'm the (american) republican party; outdated, outspoken, and basicly angry that things aren't like they used to be.

When i've come full circle like that, it's time for me to amscray.

Where once I was vibrant and connected to people, I increasingly feel like the angry, crazy old man on the hill who yells at kids to get off his lawn. I need to leave, clear the way for the new blood to make this nation great. My time has come, and I feel like it has gone.

I hearby relinquish my noble post, and wish to make known that MASS is open and ready for a new count. Take what I have made, and make it better. I wish to retain my citizenship, if possible, but I guess this would count as a permanent LOA. I will answer should Shireroth need me, but for all the reasons I stated before, I need to distance myself, and center myself. Maybe one day i'll return, but not for awhile.

I love you all, I love this nation, and I wish nothing but the best for all of you. Even those of you who want to bring change to Shireroth.


Cheers and regards,

Greg Russell

Well that's not happy...

[Andreas the Wise]

I sincerely hope you change your mind soon. But by all means, take a break for a while ....

[Jonas]

Not happy at all.

[Ari Rahikkala]

This is EXCELLENT NEWS! FOR HILLARYUS!!! Now that the first law of micronationalism is on our side, perhaps we can actually expect him to post more regularly.

[Kaiser Loki III]

Grumble.

Greg, when you are my age you can be the grumbly old man. Shireroth IS alot of work to keep up on. But so is any community over say 12 or so......

Come when you can, do what you like. I'd love to see some stories of the Olden Days in the wiki, for instance.

Your citizenship is safe.

HUGS!

Love you Greg.

When I first got here, you were never here. It was a pleasant surprise every time you dropped by. So since I've never been here with you fully active and here all the time, this isn't much of a change to the status quo. I wish you all the best in your time off.

[Prodigy Almighty]

I realize I am very late with this, I apologize for not having been around a lot... but this makes me sad. Gman has always been and will always be the quintessential Yardistani, and I was very much looking forward to his rebellion against Baron Jess.

[Scott of Hyperborea]

You've been here for almost ten years now, and I expect to keep seeing you around many years hence. Shut up and get back to Yardistan

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

316 words in his speech... that's 316/7... 45 weeks maximum to return

[Erik Mortis]

Stay, or I'll feed you to rabid weasels...

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Why don't we pull a Babkha and make his inactivity illegal?
Or at least make the YAC annex his soul or something

[Oroigawa Koreyasu]

Well, the MiniImNat hasn't approved his emigration yet...

(Pssst! Harald! Don't do it!)

[Malliki]

Why don't we pull a Babkha and make his inactivity illegal?
Or at least make the YAC annex his soul or something

With the County of Z in mind, why don't you just turn him into a county?

[Kaiser Loki III]

They come back. They always come back!

Don't they, fishies?

Yes........

[Kaiser Loki III]

See my office.

[Gman Russell]

Damnit! Why did you have to be all noble and give me an award?! Argh!


Ok, thanks for making me feel loved and welcome everyone, it means alot to me.

[Kaiser Reynardine I]

HA! We knew he'd be back!

Stay a while, why dontcha!

[b3n|<3r|\|]

[Prodigy Almighty]

I've had a seat warmer on your county throne for you. Why not come back for a while, keep it warm yourself? It would certainly make Yardistan more lively.

[Erik Mortis]

But we do love you! Even if you still talk to my ex.

[Gman Russell]

Well... I tried to leave.



For about a month and a half, I did.


And then... Bill pulled me back in.


So, hell, if i'm going to actually try and be a part of a micronation again, why not not dive all the way back in and be active here too. Yardistan, here I come!

[Erik Mortis]

YAY!

[Kaiser Reynardine I]

WOOHOO!

[Gman Russell]

Cheers!

[Jacobus Loki]

Viva!

[Prodigy Almighty]

YAAAHOOOOO!
