So I would like to take a couple of minutes to thank you all for an enjoyable almost 5 years. First, Steve for making such a great game. Second, you guys, the community. For making it (for the most part) such a friendly place to be and for being so helpful to players with questions, whether they be new or veterans. The game isn't chasing me away, I just don't feel it anymore. I lost my wife to a heart attack in November. I lost my mother in mid-May. I've been furloughed from my job at a Class I Railroad for almost three months. They'd have us believe the drop in business is due to The Rona but a good portion of it is self-inflicted due to new operating practices to line shareholders pockets and f*ck employees at every chance possible but that's another story. Anyway, I know I'm not the first to go through tough times or lose loved ones and I'm not looking for sympathy or anything. Just giving some insight as to why I'm stepping away. I just don't have it in me anymore to check on and fiddle with my team as much as I would like to get it where I want it to be. So thank you, Steve, for the game, and thank you all for the help and fierce competition for the last 5 years. It was a blast. Good luck and may the Force be with you. Dan

More sorry to hear about your loss, and all the other crap life seems to be liberally handing out these days, Dan. Sometimes, this game can help with that, and sometimes the frustration makes it worse. All the best. I hope to see you here again someday. Take care.

I'll PayPal you cash to cover a few sessions. Sounds like you have a lot to talk out... Otherwise, peace be with you.

I wish you the best and hope you find peace and calm in your mind and heart. We'll be here and will welcome you back with open arms, should you decide a little fake baseball is a good idea again. But please do take care of yourself. Life's a fecking ahole sometimes, I understand. Hugs from afar.
