Never thought I'll see the day I post this...

[RAMChYLD]

Ok. Now, I have stated clearly before this. I do not want to hear that P word ever again.

Not only did it come up again, I am being "forced" to accept the show for what they're going to do with it.

I'm sorry, but this is unacceptable. Seeing that word again and seeing how much people are out to ruin the things I love and how many of you are supporting it...

Things aren't going well for me in real life either. Everything is going down the s#!tter for me in real life and doesn't looks like it'll ever improve.

This is it. I'm sorry to say this, but I'm leaving. Maybe permanently, maybe not. Things has degraded to the point where I get depression fits so often now, but I guess it has to end this way. I'm forever alone, like that troll image. Nothing lasts forever, like that stupid song says. I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then, just like that song an idiot who actually tried to kill me behind my back posted to an Arthur forum a long time ago.

I need time to recuperate my thoughts. Until then, this will be my last post to the forums, and most likely IRC. Again, this may be forever, and maybe not.

Thank you for all your hospitality. But as I said, I've had too much problems now, and I need to pull out. Before I go insane again.

RAMChYLD out.

How can I reply without starting any sort of argument here?

Hmm...

We, as a forum, are not forcing you into enjoying MLPFIM. We aren't supporting people who are out to "ruin" the show for you. We did not say "Go watch MLPFIM even though you don't like the way the series is going". We were just trying to explain why such changes aren't a bad thing. We know you don't like certain kinds of villains, like Discord. And when we laid out our explanations to you, we never told you to go watch the show. We never required you to watch the show. The reason? It's all up to you. The choice is yours. It really puzzles me on why you only watch certain shows the way that you do, and why you avoid certain shows that go up against requirements that you have set up. Me, by explaining in the most direct sense why such changes are occurring in the show and why it's not that bad, I was hoping that you would start going beyond those requirements that you have set up, and start liking any TV show that you come across as interesting, or continuing to watch a show that is going through changes. I never demanded that you go watch MLPFIM. I never would do such a thing. Neither have any of us.

And even though I have told you several times that you have to learn how to accept changes like this, that is different from commanding you to continue watching the show. It doesn't apply to TV shows...it applies to real life. You can't let every single negative event in life depress you. Life doesn't always work the way we want it to. Nothing is ever perfect. I am having some difficulties in my life right now, regarding finding a job, filling out a whole bunch of paperwork for various things, resuming school...it feels like a burden to me. I do get depressed at times, but I never stay depressed. After some rest and deep thought, I get over my depression and Im ready to continue working on making my own life work the way I want to.

There are always going to be people against you. It's unavoidable. That is another fact of life that you have to get used to. Once you find people who actually care about you, you can forget all about the people who have had a negative impact on your life. As for the past....well, sometimes it's hard to forget the bad things that happened in the past. Once in awhile, bad memories haunt me too. They never stay long though. As for you, I know it's very hard to forget the past...and if you were to just find a professional psychiatrist and get some much needed help, you probably won't be haunted by those memories that much.

Oh wait....you do have people who care about you! You have us...me, Grapes, Evalana, Angel, Blake. We only communicate with each other via this forum, IRC, or Facebook, but we are around whenever we can. You are never alone...even if you feel that way in real life.

I just wish that for one moment...you would simply forget all those conspiracy theories that you came up with....forget about all the incidents in the past....forget about why you think certain things are happening....and just read my explanations to you. Then read it again. Then think about it hard. For several hours. Think about that without bringing in your conspiracies and beliefs. Perhaps then you will realize that you get depressed over very trivial issues in life and beyond.

If you really want to leave the forums for awhile, then go on ahead. I'm not stopping you in doing so.

I am however, saddened. Leaving isn't necessary. Just follow my example above and listen to us for once. It's your choice if you want to though.

If you do leave, just please come back. Don't stay away forever.

Wade has pretty much covered everything I want to say.

I won't stop you, David. But your decision is a pity for us because you have been the one keeping this place alive the most. Without you things won't be the same.

Anyway, take your time and be sure to return again someday.

David, I hope I haven't seemed heartless to you. My patience is not the greatest in the world. I do, however, care about you and I have tried my darnest to avoid hurting you. I am sorry if I failed, or if you misread me. It's perfectly all right to like different things. No one's point of view of subjective material should overrule your own (for you, personally).

You're a valuable person, a backbone of this place, and undeserving of depression. I am so sorry for all the rough times in your past, and I do think, as I said before, that therapy could help you if you are willing to be helped. We all need to be happy to fully live in the world! I have had times where I've been too depressed by bad memories and/or feelings of worthlessness to do anything, even basic essential things like eat and drink and sit up. It is so hard to be good to yourself when depressed, but you have to have more trust in yourself and the world to come out of it. I wish I could hug you in person and make your favorite warm drink to make you feel better. Feeling loved is the best medicine.

Well, I've decided to return early. But please bear with me, my heart is still aching from what happened. I will get over it in time, but for now, well...

I'll get over it. Maybe 9,999,999 tears later, but I'll get over it. Eventually.
