Dedication

Yay! I decided to be active in Maple again!

I'm going to dedicate my playing time to Mapling and managing the guild. (:

Because, I realised that I am actually very, very lucky to have a guild like this.

Many guilds cannot survive inactivity, but I am lucky in the sense that my members are LOYAL and FAITHFUL.

No one that I recognised left, and I am...deeply touched, let me put it that way. (;

As in, I realised that I am truly lucky to have people like you all (yes, you! :D) in MSNoobSterZ.

Because while many guilds crumble when people are inactive/less active over a span of several months, we are lucky.

Because of you all - my guildmembers, the guild has survived.

I realised then, that I should cherish this guild, and that I should not take you all for granted.

Because you all are capable of many things - other guilds would WANT you, would NEED you, to join them.

But yet you have chosen to stick with MSNoobSterZ.

For that, I am deeply grateful for your dedication and patience.

I have witnessed other guilds crumble, rot and die.

I have witnessed other guildmasters walk away from their guilds when their guildmembers needed them the most.

I have witnessed guildmembers, dejected and disappointed when their guildmaster fails to login.

I know I have let you all down in many ways.

But I am going to be active in Maple, to login when I am allowed to play, to serve all and do good.

I do not wish to be any of the above guildmasters. Neither do I wish to let go of my guild, because I simply can't. I really cannot bear to see this guild - OUR guild - crumble, rot and then slowly die.

I realised that this guild is really important; not just to me, but to many of us reading this right now.

I am certain that there would be people out there calling me superficial and hypocritical, but I will not care about those people.

Because there are other people that need me more, other people who are nice and loyal to their guilds, other people who just wish to find people to talk too.

So I have made this resolution, and I plan to stick to it. (I'm sorry Pet Society, there will be no more stadium races for Cheesophilic anymore.)

Our guild may go through ups and downs, tough times and good times, but no matter what, we will definitely emerge stronger and more bonded from these experiences.

I really really do not wish for the guild to die.

And I have realised that I have not contributed enough, nor fulfilled my part that I am required - obliged - to play.

I realised I have to take action.

I am supposed to set a good example for the rest.

So far, not doing so well on the 'good example' bit.

While my fellow guildmembers were playing Maple, I was doing other stuff.

When my fellow guildmembers were calling for me to come in, I was doing other stuff.

Whilst they were contributing in whatever way they could to keep the guild alive, I was doing other stuff.

I am really sorry.

From now on, I promise to be a better guildmaster.

1. To be active more often.

2. To lead and set a good example. (BWAHAHA. *evil laugh*)

3. To be nicer.

4. To earn more mesos, so I can donate to guild funds and satisfy my need to see lots of money together in one place. (7 digits again, please?)

I am going to change.

Because change is what I need.

And so, after typing for about 30 minutes, I have made up my mind.

June 13, 2009 - Lv 79 Priest.

December 31, 2009 - Lv 1xx.

It sounds crazy, but I am going to try anyway.

I know I cannot afford to buy Mong slots or leech slots.

I know I probably cannot find a training area in the nearly crowded channels.

I know.

But I am going to try anyway.

I'm going to take lvl 100 as a birthday present for myself.

By end of this year, I hope to achieve lvl 100.

And I also hope that the guild will prosper.

That we will all be one big, happy family (:

It is all hopes, yes?

But...


So I am going to try anyway.

Even if I fail, it is better trying than giving up straight away, yes?

On this note, I end my post.

Cheers! [:
