SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Hi guys,

I sincerely apologize for my absence of late.  I'm torn here in discussing the why because I don't want to come across as whiny, but my family and I have had some significant difficulties of late that pretty much knocked my dick in the dirt.  I spiraled into a depressive state and pretty much withdrew from everything to insulate and consolidate.

My family is under some significant financial pressure due to medical issues and insurance issues, and this last week our furnace stopped working.  We had to stay out of the house for several days while it was repaired, and the stress of that situation, as well as its financial impact, lowered my resistance and I fell into a depressive state for the last couple of weeks.

I would like to continue the game, but I would completely understand if you didn't want me to continue the game due to my flakiness.  

Sincerely,
Drohem

whatever you decide is fine by me!
I trust all is well with you and yours...:)
Form the group wisely, make sure you share goals and means.
Set norms of table etiquette early on.
Encourage attentive participation and speed of play so the game will stay vibrant!
Allow that the group, milieu and system will from an organic symbiosis.
Most importantly, have fun exploring the possibilities!

Hang there brother, Been there myself. Speaking for myself, really not in a hurry, so as far as I'm concerned, take your time. Let me know if I can do anything for ya.

Sorry to hear that, mate. You're welcome to stick around, even if you're only able to post once in a while. I hope things start getting better for you soon.

Thanks guys. :)

I was swamped for a bit but I'm back in the saddle for the most part.  My wife and kids are awsome and we're working through it together.
