I must be a nerd if I come back and read this every couple of years! I do miss CF. Maybe I'll even make a comeback one day! Leaving staff was rather disappointing and I think that was a straw that saw me take a very long break.

The fact that I am here reading this shows that CF is STILL on my mind! Go figure!
99946, I'm so confused at the lack of IMM input here.

1205 hours of badassery from this guy... arguably the most looked forward to IMM for years, and he's asked to step down and not even thank you for anything?

This just seems so weird.

Either way, I loved you Borky. Thanks for the comments on Cagubrak and I'm happy in some way, my characters always find you. I hope that never stops! Take care.
99949, Here is the reason

You hire a guy, he is a great guy, the customers love him. He can't do the job that is required however. What do you do? If rp was his only strong point, he would be better off in the player base adding to the game than be somewhere that another player might excell at. It probably was a hard choice to make but cf has been around for ever and they
try to keep things fair and stick to company policy.

"Heh, we just had to let go a great guy go before his tenure was up."
"He put in alot of hard work, but those are the beats" Who's going
to break the ice and stop skipping church because we all go to the same church? Not me.

We are having fun right? Lets have fun, others need to have fun, lets make it fun for them so we can have fun. This is a game, we play it to have fun.

Dungeons and Dragons, ever play it? Lord of the rings? Read it?
This game is not based on mortal combat friends. Its based on
creative books, not soap operas.

Does it matter what the reason really is? In the end, no.
We are all good people, some of us are just confused people.
Everyones different.

This is pretty retarded. This reasoning would work if he was costing them money, as an employee at a company who cannot do what is expected of him. But, this is CF. A game. A game based on interaction. Bork was great at interactions. The player base loves and longs for immteraction. There was an Imm who was great at it and was doing it regularly. This makes CF what it is. Just because he couldn't code or something doesn't mean they should have had him leave. That's just dumb.

I may be retarded but I have not kept a game like this going
for a successful 15+ years. How long have you been an imm for?
Don't judge when you have not seen through their eyes.

I can only speak for myself, but I've already spoken to Borkahd about
things, and didn't really feel a need to air it out here.

99959, Completely understandable.
Posted by TripHitNdip on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I just really was fond of him in every single way. I understand we all have our flaws, but I just wanted him to feel more appreciated because I just feel like he deserves it.

At least we have him now. I hope I find him Mort! MUHAHAHAH!

Thanks. Again, I'm really sorry to let you guys down. You were part of a cult following I seemed to have and the support you guys gave me was amazing. I'm super greatful.

Posted by Borkahd on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Thanks for all the kind words, guys. Deleting was a sad, sad day for me. However, I lack a needed skill so was asked to step down. It wasn't by choice, but I understand their decision and harbor no hard feelings. RP just isn't enough. The rest of the details I will keep to myself but feel as if you guys deserve at least some sort of explanation.

I put a lot of time and effort into everything I did and I did it all for you guys. I love the player base. I loved to jump down and RP with you guys or conduct interviews and was -really- looking forward to pushing out a religion (which was approved but will never bare fruit). What saddens me the most is letting you guys down. I had a little cult following and I can never return to you guys the love that you showed me. Sorry for that.

I IMMed back in March of 2009 and grew very fond of most of the people I worked with and I'll take this time to list a few specifics.

Z: You are a fricken beast. Most people have no idea how much time and effort you put into CF but it is vast. Thank you so much for what you do for us. A very cool guy but pretty anti-social, which I didn't mind since I'm generally the same way.

Baer: You are a shining light. You are always there for the lower imms and seemed to advocate for us. Thanks and I'll miss ya even if we never did get all buddy-buddy.

Nep: Since the baby was born you seem to have faded back a bit, which we all understand. Congrats, btw. This guy is also a coding guru, thanks for all you do!

Thror: Cool guy, really. I may hit you up sometime for some work ;)

Lyr: Another cool guy. Hope your time frees up more soon.

Scar: I always enjoyed our short talks, especially when we discussed magic, religion, etc. You are the driving force behind a lot of really cool things and the new stuff you have planned sounds pretty awesome. Rock on, dude. Rock on.

Iunna: Drinks? <3 ya and thanks for everything! I enjoyed our long talks when our times matched up better.

Nae: You were my best friend up there and I'll miss you the most. Good luck with everything and I see CF in good hands with you as our next generation of imms.

Ade and Malk: You both were really cool as well. I loved hanging out with you guys. Mal, thanks for the advice and I still may shoot you over the email if its still cool. ;)

I know I am leaving a -lot- of people out but I'm getting tired, sorry! Post and I will try to get a reply out there.

I'll still be around. As a matter of fact, I am playing a mort now and have been tossing around an idea for another. I do go to school, work, and am trying to get a computer repair business going so my time isn't what it used to be...but I will always find time for CF.

Feel free to look me up on FB, I've posted numerous times on CF's page so you can find me there!

See ya in the fields!

Who were your prior mortals?
99917, RE: Time for you to make some more outstanding chars, We need players like you.
Posted by Borkahd on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Lets see...

Farzelkep (Lyr tat gnome druid when Outlander first opened)
Cyruil (Corr tat elf pally Marshall)
Gahtho (Svirf Drillmaster)
Bork (Commander, Yean Tat, hero-imm, rapist, evil-dude)
A old-Beroxxus healer in Scion...cant remember the name.

I've had plenty of titled characters but I'm horrible with names. These are just a few off the top of my head.

Bummer. Always enjoyed not only your RP itself, but your willingness to do so almost all the time. You were certainly a boon to the game. I guess I'll never know about that certain someone's pet now! Good luck with whatever comes next, and I'll see you in the fields!
99747, Thanks. I'll miss you guys! nt

99710, This is awful
Posted by TJHuron on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I hope that you toss out an explanation to us because I thought you were a fantastic character and imm for battle. From all the posts I had read of yours a deletion was the last thing I would have predicted. You seem very into the RP aspect and creating a fun experience for all those around. This just doesn't make any sense, unless of course you are taking on a new form and shedding this one. Pretty awesome though.

I think you inducted a couple of my Villagers. Thanks for that. If you really did delete this is a bad loss for CF.
99746, Explanation up. Sorry! nt

99703, That sucks
Posted by Nevaelle on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I hope it doesn't have anything to do with our RP or anything and that it's just a remorting kind of situation or at worst you as a player needing a break. You seem like a great kind of imm to have around.
99739, RE: That sucks
Posted by Borkahd on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Nope. Nothing to do with our RP. Anything that effects mortals the way that it did you guys I always had cleared. Thats why it took awhile to respond and such...I was getting the OK and advice from the higher ups!
99685, I hope this is so you can play more mortals!
Posted by TMNS on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Or because they made you remort yourself into a different IMM persona.

I loved your RP. I did not love fighting mortal Borkahd with my one and only hero invoker, mostly because you beat my ass 9 times out of 10 (though I did have you convulsing once!).

I tried and tried to include this log on officials, but it's being weird to me. I thought you might like this.

You made this game better.

Thanks! I love seeing Bork logs. I loved Borky-poo and will miss him tons.

I seem to always enjoy your characters. Thanks for being a cool player!
99682, Say it ain't so, Bork.
Posted by Homard on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
If this is anything other than you moving on to bigger and better
things within CF, I'm very sorry to see it.

Borkahd has been a constant presence in the Village for the past few
years and not having him around will leave a tremendous void.
99741, RE: Say it ain't so, Bork.

Sorry bud :(
99679, Terrible loss
Posted by Gaplemo on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Fantastic hero imm. One of the best, if not the best prospects for a new religion and rp came from you imo. Hope you're just moving up the pantheon, but with the arrival of Reksah and the history of such things, I lean towards believing this is an actual delete, and not him remorting :(


What happened big guy? You will be missed.
99742, Thanks for the kind words! nt

One of the MOST influencial and well played hero imm's. I hope this delete is only coming around now because you are moving on up the pantheon!

If not, this is sadly disappointing.

This is devastating to see. I never knew how to approach you after the whole duel thing, but you were an excellent presence in terms of roleplay.

Posted by Borkahd on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I slapped myself in the head after that second challenge. Me, as a person, didn't want you to do it. But I know you were staing IC which I admired and had fun. Even though the IC actions might hurt your character, you stayed true. Kudos!

IC Bork loved every moment of it. He was pretty much the embodiment of evil, imo.

Posted by Gurzgred on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
No worries, I sighed as a player even as I committed to it. I'll always wonder the "What if's" though. I think with a bit more prepping I might have taken you the first time! I can hardly imagine Gurzgred if he would have won though.
99675, Sorry to see this....
