Mightyputty here.

I know some of you already know this, but I'll say it just to make sure ALL my SK friends who haven't contacted me on Steam know.

I left Spiral Knights 2 months ago. Basically, it's just my formal goodbye to all the people I know. I already asked people to send me Steam friend invites should they wish to contact me outside SK. I'd like to make this formal post just for everyone else who hasn't had the chance to friend me yet or didn't know about this.

I had a very nagging feeling attached to me when I left, and it was that I haven't really thanked all my friends and guildmates, whether current or former, for the good times I had with you during the first 3 months of my time in Spiral Knights. It was a lot of fun playing with (and against) you all, whether in Clockworks, or in pvp. It was fun chatting with you and playing a lot of trivia that was hosted by Xairathan and me. It was a lot of fun when I could just stand at the guildhall and take random screenshots of AFK.

So yeah, this is OFFICIALLY my last post for SK. I just had to let this out because I realize that I left really abruptly on that night in January.

If you want to friend me on Steam (people on my SK list. I remember who you are.), it's [Formely AFK] Mightyputty.

NOW I say, farewell Spiral Knights. It was fun before the Steam promotions and the noob surge.

Farewell to thee, o arbiter of many disputed questions and whatnot....

May I still ask you for trivia ideas?

I don't particularly know you, but I vaguely recall some people holding you in high regard.

Goodbye, and good luck with what you now do.

I remember seeing you once in haven. You looked like a cool guy. And thanks. I'l stay on the forums to check on the game's state.

Two reasons I quit:
1. Too much schoolwork: I'm doing a Biology BSC with a Music minor for goodness sakes :o
2. Gameplay: I saw it degenerate after I played it for so long. Too many noobs, and too few mature players.

My question,

Will you ever play again?

if not, good luck outside ''The Grid''!

I'm not cool. I'd like to think my costume looks pretty cool for a simple design, but cool is one thing I am not.

I am me, and me is all I shall ever be.

Guardianknight cries pitifully

You've never been on my friends list but I've seen you around haven and in LD I think.
I'm sorry we never really got the chance to meet.....you seem like a really nice person.
I hope you stop in once in a while to say hi.
I wish you the best in life and good luck with school:)

The one and only, Guardianknight.

P.S. Psycho is cool:)

Farewell

Putty,
I always admired how much dedication you put into AFK. The way you included everyone and made sure you knew all the happenings and going-ons shows what a kind and great person you are! I wish you luck with your degree, and maybe even musical pursuits? :)
May you find success in life with your leadership skills and caring nature!

Farewell, my friend.

It was back in the old days where the fun was. I am also losing interest in the game but my friends or guildmates encourage me to stay. I can't add people on Steam at the moment because I haven't got any games on it. I forgot my old Steam account.

But anyways, it was fun til it lasted. Remember how it all began? Many things have changed since then but I hope you the best.

Sooner or later you'll

Sooner or later you'll probably come back. SK, in my eyes, is only getting stronger over time. 000, while they have long development cycles (which is regrettable), seems to be getting better with each new major content release.

Jamoo

Psycho? Cool? Bwahahaha

Putty!
Oh AFK was probably the best guild I've ever been in. I remember chatting to you in guild and/or officer chat about random hoo-ha. So fun.
And the noob surge during the Steam promotion? Tier 1 lockdown has never been so interesting.
And I agree with Khamsin on this one. With the game getting stronger,more people will come back. With boredom leavers however, there's not many ways to get them to come back. But in the holidays, with no school to worry about for some, that is when I bet, some of the old leavers will return, that's when I'll log on regularly just to chat.

You should log in sometime

You should log in sometime whenever your boredom wears off or you get the chance, like Jamoo said. If only to say hi and visit. And if you ever had any doubts about whether or not you were well-respected or will be missed, I hope this thread serves to remove them. Good luck with your classes and career choice in the mean time!

Another name from the old days disappears. I seem to remember a few great LD games with you, and that random trivia of yours. I stopped for a while because of school myself, but with any luck you won't be AFK from the home of AFK forever... it's nice to see a familiar face in haven now and then. Best of luck.

I don't think this has been made clear yet.

Please don't confuse me with the ragequitters against the DLC expansion. I already quit the game 2 months prior. I'm just saying it now to tell people who I'm sure haven't known yet. It wasn't the content (or lack of) that made me quit, although that was part of it. It was mostly real life stuff and annoying player base because of the surge in beggars and trolls. It really made me tired you know? Even if I did come back, it'll be short-lived because I've got 7 Biology related courses to take over the next two semesters in 2012-2013 school year.

EDIT: Don't you dare ask ANYTHING about me giving away stuff. If I could, I'd give it to Lowric because he actually helped fund some of it. Other than that, I'd like to keep it as a montage. There is a chance I can pop up to visit, but let's say it's currently less than possible right now.

And yes keep your gear, you can always pop in on a rainy day over a break and chat for a few, kill a jelly, play a round of blast network, and move on without any resposibilities.

I didn't get enough attention the first time I said goodbye so I came back to do it again.

If that's what you think, it's fine.

Me? I actually left without much of a trace because I didn't really tell anyone. I felt bad about it, so I told. Anything wrong with it?

@Debianlinux

Please to be making yourself quiet. Thanks you.

You obviously don't know Mightyputty, so I'm willing to let it slide this time. But if nothing else, you should learn one thing about him: he's a good guy and most definitely not an attention-seeking child. This is for your education so you don't make the same mistake again. If you decide to so much as attempt to soil his good name again, there is no telling the storm of fury you will unleash from his friends. You have been adequately warned.
