Hello everybody, dear friends,


I had hoped that I wouldn't have to write this forum post, for the message it carries isn't a light one and is neither a fun one.


I'm currently in my last year of school and I've got a lot of work, in the form of both tests as well as my thesis which eat up a lot of time. My traineeship also takes up a lot of work.

Combining that with the bad public transport in Belgium (specially the trains - yesterday 1h of delays, today about 45mins), my days get quite short. But it's still doable to do other stuff - were it not for another problem which I have no other option for.


In the last few months my relationship with my girlfriend has really gone bad and I have no other option, as I live with her, to do some water in my wine. That also means that I'll need to go to bed earlier for her (hard to explain). As I wake up already at 5.45 AM, and now go to bed at about 10PM - 10.30 PM (and I live my house at 6.30 AM and get back at 6.00 PM) means that my days are really short.

My girlfriend, as both Cow and Dude know, isn't an easy person to live with.


In the few hours that make up my days, I have to do all of my schoolwork and all of my hobbies. I have tried to combine all of that, but it has been impossible to do all of it. The first thing that got "on hold" was Amane's Journey, something I really enjoy writing, but lack of time ruins it all.


Unfortunately, my other hobbies have been decreasing as well - it started with me gaming less and less, and then putting my webdesign hobbies back. Now, I have no other option than to put a step back here, on my own child, the Spellborn Fan Hub.

That doesn't mean however that nothing will happen here. I'm putting both Cow and Dude in charge, two dear friends of me that have proven before that they are to be trusted and they both have a big heart for this game. So I think I can't find better people to trust my own child with than Cow and Dude.


I won't be gone though - I'll still be around, but not as much as before. For hotfixes or some new functions coding I'll still be available, but Cow will inform me if I'm needed for that. He'll also inform me if somebody has a question for me - I'll still be here.


I love you all guys and putting a step back does hurt, but I fear I've got no other option at the moment. I've even stopped playing Guild Wars (well, almost... but it's only about 2 hours a week anymore compared to several hours previously..).
