This Is The End

[TheOneSurvivor]

So I just got voted out of the last game I'll ever play (don't worry it was Open ID), and I have a few things I want to say‬. To my fellow ORGers, please read:


Let me begin by saying that in no way do I regret ever participating in ORGs. I have been blessed with the opportunity to self-evaluate, compete, form relationships, and the list goes on and on. However, as my last adventure finished up last night, I realized something that is extremely important for me to share with whoever is willing to understand. Just like anyone else, I have people in games who are my favorites and the villains I despise, however, as a participant in these said games, I have come to realize that these characters are just that, characters. These one-dimensional portrayals of personality do not begin to elucidate the brilliance, truth and dynamicity of the person behind the personality. Now, this is not to say that everyone is at heart a great person with positive intention, however, stripped from the pressures of this public forum, the people you see, the stuff you read, these are not the people that I have come to know at the core of their true selves, nor the representations that I will choose to remember as defining our relationship. Despite the level of confidence I have reached in my professional, academic and personal life, there is something to be said for the debilitating insecurity, hypersensitivity and defensiveness that is brought upon by participating in such an invasive and unrealistic setting, like ORGs.

My fellow ORGers, whether consciously or not, are forced into a position of constantly trying to prove themselves to one another and to the unspoken audience in order to uphold a certain sense of character. We spend so much time defending our personhood, that we lose sense of our true personalities. We become hypersensitive to interpersonal criticisms and so much so that we become misconstrued representations of our own selves. So to my fellow ‪ORGers‬, despite any relationship we may have had in the past, I want to wish you all well and successes. I hope that we can all come to shed the insecurities associated with this experiment, and come to realize that we still have so much in our young lives. Please stop working so incredibly hard to defend this caricature of who you are, and recognize how truly unprecedented you are.

So, without further ado, this is TheOneSurvivor, signing off for good. It's been fun.

holy shit -14 points wtf

[TheOneSurvivor]

I'm not surprised tbh. This place is filled with a bunch of cunts.

Once I become an Admin, 50% of these members are getting banned. That's how infected this place is.

[nationpower]

Can't wait to get banned <3

[trojansoldier]

You're sticking around though, right? Don't disappear until I get the chance to talk to you once that thing you were involved in wraps up. If you're buggering off I at least want to say a proper farewell, y'know?

[Vocal Fry]

lol just saw this

are you still here or no?

[TheOneSurvivor]

I leave for Europe in the middle of May for the entire Summer. The day I leave will be the day I stop posting here for good. I may pop him once a month or so when I return in September, but for the most part I will be done with this place. I probably won't be posting on ORGY anymore either.

I will still be at Sucks though.
