OK fine, here's what went down:
I was part of the Summer Secret Santa which was fine. In June I landed a new job that required me to move immediately, and I messaged Nubs asking if I could bow out of the SS exchange and he said it was too late. Between the time I was changing cities and working 13 hour days I couldn't sit around waiting for the Comcast guy to hook up my internet for about 2 weeks. During this time I wasn't on GH, hell, I wasn't even on my own website. By the time I got my everything running again and had a chance to get back onto social media (GH included) I saw Nub's had already been spreading lies and vitriol all over without the slightest clue what was really going on. That's when I realized I was happier for the two weeks away from the drama and bull**** then I ever had been recently and made a decision.
Hell, I never even received my Secret Santa package (assume it went to my old address,) and it was never a money issue (especially not now with my new job,) and by the way I did get something pretty cool for Rotaku that I decided not to send all in spite of Nubs acting like a punk. A **** move to be sure but that's how I felt at the time.
I'm just sick of the bull**** and reading through the recent posts in this thread it's clear that uninformed witch hunts and unwarranted bullying is still rampant here, so why would I ever want to stay?
I've met many amazing, intelligent, and interesting people here over the past 3-4 years but lately it's the voices of the *******s that keep drowning them out.
