players too, but mostly imms.

cf is a great game, and in my opinion is generally improving. It is definitely one I would choose over any of the pc games you can buy in the shops. Certainly I believe newer areas to be of higher quality than old, and seeing supposedly "elite" players on the way out because they got caught perma-ing etc doesn't do the mud any harm either imho. Sadly, I don't think that cheating will ever disappear from the game, but at least it should remain at a somewhat subdued level relative to years gone by.

The reason I'm leaving is that basically cf is too time consuming and too addictive (for me), and if I do go into partnership with an old colleague, as looks increasingly likely, I can't afford to let myself be distracted.

Personally, I think the standard of rp has improved quite a lot over the last few years too.

Anyway, to friends and foes alike, thank you (even those that ganked me etc -- it's part of the game and is part of what makes it challenging). To the imms, thanks, and keep up the good work.
