I'm requesting a temp ban. Can I please be banned until February? When console wars invade my personal life and interfere with friendships, it's time I back away from game news and discussion, and that's about 95% of what I do on here.

So you might not see me for many months, lol. The school I'm going to tends to not let me get access to CAA for some reason. D:

I can't believe my profile is still here!

Anyway, I randomly stumbled upon CAA and decided to post here again. I first registered years ago to defend a friend of mine.

I don't know if anyone will remember me because I haven't really posted much, but meh, I'm back anyway. :p

Well, I left, and I'm back...

I really wasn't around much to begin with, but I "left" around the time of the first 2 or 3 Podcasts coming out.

I hope to get to know you all a bit better this time around... Oh right! The chatroom! (THAT'S where I spent most of my time last time... lol...)

Anyways, lookin' forward to growing with you all!

Back. My problems haven't stopped, though. Of course, It's a bit deeper than "console wars" obviously... It's more one person is trying to keep me from outshining someone else, and the games just play into that. Yeah, that may not make sense to anyone here, but it's a serious problem and I don't really have any way of changing things. All I can really do is try to avoid the topic around them, but I know it can spread out to other things besides the games, so there will be new problems in the future if I manage to do anything to outdo this person or draw attention away from him... Not talking about games... Well, that's darned near impossible considering what I do in school.

Leaving CAA

Postby Anna Mae » Sun Feb 03, 2008 4:11 pm

God is calling me to mission work in Paraguay. I won't be able to count on having internet access in my location, so I must take my leave of CAA. I'll be around for a month or two yet, but after that I'll be gone from CAA for... years, perhaps. We'll see.

I shall miss all of you.

Will be leaving for quite some time due to get more spiritual and work on my first book for God and studies. Might be weeks, might be months.
Some of my favorite scriptures.

Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.



James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.



Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Won't get too into it... I know I just came back, but for now... Well, I'm going, not asking to be banned this time, don't know when I'll be back, not putting a time limit on it, but I can't handle being here right now. Guess I really haven't for a long time. Meh... This message is too vague, don't even bother asking me on IM. If you want to talk to me in REAL LIFE, you can do that, I may answer you then. I may be back at any time, I may never be back... Chances are I will be, I'm addicted to conversation and when I don't have access to it in the normal ways, I'll look for it in others. Hopefully I'll figure out how to deal with certain things by that point...

Oh, and just a thought: I said this way back when I first came here, if you have a problem with me, ok so you may talk to a mod about it, that's understandable, but at least come to me TOO... Not just other people. I can understand the need to vent, but don't vent and let me hear it second hand. Come to me. When people tell me things like "Other people have problems with you, and won't listen to anything you have to say on the forums" that's just a bit much. That's beyond rude (both the people who didn't come to me and the person saying that to me) and it's just plain not biblical. In any case, this may be a moot point. That's about it. Goodbye.

Postby Alexander » Sat Feb 09, 2008 11:01 pm

I suppose with the recent events in my life this post was inevitable. I absolutely despise these messages as they mean a lot of heart break from me and the few who know me well here.

I'm going to be leaving here. I don't have any plans to move to another site after this.

The reason why? Mainly the fact that the wired, a place I've been obsessed with and was at one time almost completely dependent on, is coming to an end. Whether it is by my will or against it I can't be sure. I've suffered many critical blows in this world and have been able to re-build them, but I can't fight the most silent threat of all: growth and loss of interest.

Yes, I have been loosing my obsession in the social aspect of the internet, but that's only a small part of the whole picture. The real truth is my true ambition with the internet could never be met, and to make things worse, I put all my eggs in that basket hoping I could make a difference. After enough disappointments, I was proven wrong. After that, my self-will to go on this path has quickly gone out like a wilting flower.

Which leads me here, to face once again, the very thing I despise most of all. The end of all good things. When one of my obsessions starts to disappear it feels like loosing a child. And that feeling only increases when it came from a community that did me no harm.

To those who are still on my IM and have my E-mail, I'll continue to contact you as long as you continue to contact me. If anyone wants to talk to me through these services, you're more then welcome to use the information in my profile page.

Thank you very much for everything you've given me. I can't possibly repay you all enough.

God bless you all.

Glad to hear it. I'm hoping our latest test solves the problem for most of our users. If not, the rest of the options available to us are not fun. ;)

After much reconsideration, I've decided to return. Probably threw out the figurative baby with the figurative bathwater when I left. Ah well. I'm willing to forget about it if y'all are. :) Not sure how much I'll be around, though; CAA and my GPA aren't always good companions. ^_~ (Neither is WoW, and I might be picking that up again, too. :sweat:)

I'll probably be heading out for a while. I'm spending WAY too much time online and CAA is one of several distractions from my schoolwork and my time with God. So I am taking a break from CAA, Facebook, Dogster, etc. for a while. I'll only check my school email and hotmail for school-related things.

I don't know when I'll be back. I just feel like I'm neglecting my walk with God lately and also neglecting my duty to keep up with my classes. With tests coming soon, I need to get at it. Which means I need to cut out what distracts me.

I have a really hard time being disciplined. I know I will be tempted to come back and post around instead of doing what I need to. So I ask that, for say...the next 3 weeks...if anyone catches me on here, please PM me and tell me to get off and get to work!:bootout:
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
