What's up? Looks like the dust is starting to settle a little bit over at all the forums. It's been an interesting time of soul searching for me in the past several weeks. I had a week at the beach and I feel like a million bucks.

I'm going through some major transitions and life style change. I don't think I will be able to keep up with all the collections that are coming out in the next month. On top of that I had this weekend where I felt like the real Star Wars community is out in the real world, not bickering in cyber space. So I was in a weird place. And then on top of that Nothing was going on of interest in the forums, except these fights and GOWK arguments that I couldn't seem to keep up with.I felt like the GOWK issue for one was becoming a black hole where all threads and discussions were getting sucked into.

I think (again) I said a lot of stuff, that didn't need to be said, and I don’t know why I was so upset about what was going on. For me I think a lot of my passion comes from some sort of need for harmony. I felt like there were a lot of hot issues that we're quite frankly destroying this community and ultimately the core community of the game.

Again I regret getting on my high horse, and criticizing anyone, or either side involved. I still am entitled to feel the way I do, but honestly it's not my place and it's not my business. I fully accept that "Star Wars miniatures will go on without me". Although I feel I still have too much to offer and too much to learn to move on just yet.

So I'd like to reinstate myself on a part time basis. I still have too much to learn about the game from everyone, and I still have too many commitments to this community to just sulk.

Again sorry to both sides, It wasn't my place to make any kind of statement.

JC,

IMO I don't think an apology is required. You said a lot of things that were on a lot of people's minds.

I'm also glad things have "gotten back to normal" myself and sometimes it is nice to take a step back to take a leap forward.

Glad to see you back!!! :D

Taking time is often good anyways. And this is just a game after all. It's suppose to make us feel better not worse.

Glad you're back so that someone will be around to show WOTC how to do maps the right way.
