Hey folks,
Sorry if things have been a bit chaotic oocly around here lately but I've got some health issues that I've been trying to get looked at and I'm trying to shift my focus to this board so Rhys can give Brothers Trinity the update he has in mind.
If you have characters there you wish to keep on BT please contact him by this weekend. BT is our sister site and I truely think that we can help make it awesome and get it back on track with a bit of a reboot.
If you decide not to keep all your characters there and delete a few don't worry, most of them are here and remember this is the future so if they disappear from BT it does not mean they are gone for good.
Also as a reminder, I love you guys and no matter how stressed we all are (myself included) we're a family and family talks to one another. If you have a problem with another player please take it to PMs or Private chatango chat, IM or contact one of us Admins to mediate if you feel the need.
The chatbox is for light chat and plotting. We've all lost our tempers on it at one time or another but it is not a place to vent your anger at or about another player. If you're sad, its okay to say that, we're all sad at one time or another but if its a private matter please tell someone you trust via private methods. We respect what you're going through and if you are having a problem please let us know, just remember that the chat box is a bit like walking into the middle of a stadium with a microphone and yelling something to the world. Its fine if you don't mind sharing but if its something you don't want everyone to know pm someone.
Now that being said, I am going to share something that is normally a private matter but needs to be said because it does affect me and I want you guys to know so you understand some of the background of stuff going on with me because I am an admin and may need to scale things like my activity.
Last week I found a skin tag on my under arm, these are normally benign in nature and easily removed. This one however, is either irritated, infected or is abnormal and I'm not sure what is going on with it. I have an appointment to have it removed. Its a quick in and out procedure.
Its also located near my right breast and slightly under my arm near my lymph node area. Now, it may be nothing, but I've noticed some pain lately and I don't know if its from my nerve damage injury on my right arm or if its an indicator of something else.
The doctor is scheduling me for an image scan of my breasts to be sure and a breast exam. It may be that the two feelings are not related at all one does not mean the other necessarily.
That being said Lymphatic cancer and breast cancer run in my family. I haven't even told my mother about my concerns cause she would freak out and I'm barely keeping it together most days. I'm scared myself honestly. I'm in a lot of pain from my arm injury and its made me a bit sensitive to things.
Its not that these things aren't true. Its not that I don't think I do anything wrong. I make mistakes. I hurt people and shoot my mouth off. Its just that right now when I don't know what is going on hearing one more bad thing is just a bit too much for me. I'm in pain so when I know others are in pain it hurts me.
So please, just be gentle with each other and me, okay? Just take it easy. We'll all get through this storm and be better for it but my health issues are the main reason for me pulling back from BT and SF a bit more. There were other issues but they are resolved so please don't bring them up if you think they are a factor. I assure you, they aren't.
Stay healthy, strong and know that the staff on CT think you guys are awesome cause we do. For me personally, I want to thank you all for your words these last few days, you helped me to say things in a gentle manner and I bless you all for that.
Thank you,
Marina
