As much as I would like to give a sob story and go into things happening in my life along the lines of failing three (out of four) classes, forgetting to eat, and getting depressed. I'd rather not disclose the deeper details of my life other than saying those are the general reasons why I cannot see myself as a fit admin for this forum. But I can tell you all that I am absolutely sorry and although I feel somewhat numb right now, I'll probably mope or cry about this later. Yes I failed in my job as an admin but do not be mistaken, I really like/love TSS as much as anyone else if not more. I've grown to like and care for my members, that being the reason of why it is so immensely hard to do this.

I know this might upset a few of you, some who have been around since the beginning and others who haven't but weren't even given the chance to get into the plots or create their own. But I feel I've failed and let down the site and it will eventually sink because I see no sign of me doing anything about it. Bottom line, I've lost my drive and while I hate... absolutely hate to close TSS, I feel it would be an even bigger mistake to let it continue down the road I brought it to.

These thoughts have been swimming in my mind since just before exams(at least two weeks ago) and I'm sure my lack of drive was painfully visible to you all. I was stupid enough to use exams as an excuse when I should have let everyone know that I was having issues. Not because I needed help, but because my members had a right to know what was going on because my actions effected the forum.

Today I'm saying that TSS is closed. You may contact me at choa15@charter.net (email and msn) and I will be saving all the character applications and moving them to another site where they will temporarily be stored for you to save. Again it is very disheartening for me to do this, I am very sorry.

Does TSS have any hope of reopening? I cannot say for sure at this moment and please don't ask me to reconsider.
