I'd like to keep playing. But playing isn't a once a month extravaganza. That's more like a "Man, I'm bored. I guess I can write something since I don't have anything better to do."

It doesn't matter your real life issues, you can fit in a page of writing even in a hectic life (Heck, people can do it in the middle of combat! I can do it with a 70 hour work week interrupted all night by a new baby. Somehow time magically landed in my lap.) I mean, you've written more in the OOC than it would require to write a post. This isn't some sort of huge commitment I'm asking for here.

As I said, I don't mind that people have real problems, but RL issues are not some sort of trump card. Think about it this way... if you went to a restaurant and ordered, but found out that your chef couldn't get you your food because of some personal life problem, you would probably be annoyed but pretty forgiving. Now, if you have been doing this for years and EVERY chef at at every restaurant you go to fails to deliver your food because of "personal life issues", I'm sure you would call BS. That is where I am at this point, and I'm particularly annoyed because I really like this game and DON'T want to move on.
