NOTICE: Expect reduced activity
TappedOut forum
Posted on Jan. 28, 2014, 8:54 p.m. by Epochalyptik
For the first time since I joined this site 3 to 3.5 years ago, my personal schedule has become so busy that I must restrict my online activity. I'm currently juggling, among other responsibilities, an internship opportunity (which, should I get the position, will have been heavily influenced by my work for the TappedOut community), the final stages of an academic research publication, the end of an intense winter semester, and the resumption of my duties as a treasurer/executive for a student organization.
I will still sign in periodically to perform routine maintenance tasks (e.g. thread relocation and deletion, Q&A thread resolution, user support).
I will not be available for many other tasks, including deck help. To all of those who asked me directly for EDH help, I have your decks bookmarked, and I will try to get back to you within the next week. As of this notice, I am not accepting any more DH requests. Additionally, I am temporarily disabling my binder. I'll complete any pending trades and negotiations, but I will not be an active trader for a little while.
Expect this reduction in activity to last until March or further notice.
At least you'll still be around. Thanks for all you do and such.
It's not like you need to hear it from me, but there's no rush to come back to the same level of activity. Real life takes precedence, after all.

Thanks for what you do, bro. Best of luck on your internship. I just recently got picked up for a dream paid internship myself, so I know how awesome that is. Hope for the best in your endeavors, man. See you again in march.
I will try not to take your top spot on the site. Lol.

Good luck Epoch. You deserve it man. Thanks for everything.

Thanks for all the help you've done so far. I hope everything works out for you.

Don't be gone too long, or I'll take your number one spot! But really, take your time. Real life happens sometimes.

Thank you all for the fond wishes.
To clarify, I'm not going away in an absolute sense. I'll still be around, but only to maintain the site and to leave an occasional comment.
Still, it's going to feel pretty strange not being as active as I usually am. I'll be back soon enough, and yet not soon enough.

Just take care of yourself, you have done a lot for this site and everyone here really appreciates you. Best of luck in your internship and your work this semester!

good luck mate, as a fellow Tappedout user that used to be a lot more active I feel your sentiments exactly! Enjoy the internship and generally preparing yourself to dominate the universe

It's great to hear you are doing so well in the real world! We all appreciate your dedication to the site and hope for the best.
I also think you would have a few thousand references if you ever need them!

Good luck with all your tasks. I've got a lot on as well, so I know what it's like!

Just post an arbitrary rules question in the general forum when you miss Epochalyptik guys.
Do your thing poch. Stay on your grind and don't lose your mind.

Maybe now I'll have a decent chance of being the first to comment on a rules correction issue!

We love everything you do Epochalyptik. take your time coming back and happy deckbuilding!
January 29, 2014 9:21 p.m.
Good luck to you Epoch. From personal experience of a 50+ hour weekly work schedule, I've found myself from time to time doing nothing more than logging on to deckcycle. In the meantime I'll try to impart as much of your wisdom as I can to the Q&A.
