V8 Reduced Activity Notices

#1

Post by Deamon »

This is a thread to informally note that you'll have lower activity for a span of time. There are no templates or rules here, and nothing posted in this thread will grant you extra time to make posts (use the official Away thread for that). The splitting of these functions is to allow staff to better track who is Away, for bookkeeping purposes as well as keep other handlers in the loop.

My internet connection is down at home for now. So the only way I can be on here is in a different location, but I won't be able to use discord or be on the board at the weekends. I don't know when my connection will be back. But I will be able to get posts out if I have to.

I'm gonna be posting less often. I don't wanna get into why. People who know me can probably guess.

This may lead to an Away eventually.

Didn’t think this was worth a full away because we aren’t keeping activity, but I’ll be in Florida from the 25 to the 29th.

Probably won’t be able to post during this time as I’m not bringing laptop. Won’t be a good choice to send your staff inquiries to during that time.

My grandmother passed this afternoon. I’m already pretty slow due to the pause but taking a personal pause as well. Appreciate all understanding and apologize for any inconvenience caused on my end. I’ll be available and around just mostly on my phone and treating online stuff with lower priority.

So, hey, taking the time to apologize for my slow post speed and lower quality. I've been feeling weird emotionally a lot lately, and I just feel out of it and not as interested in things as I would normally. I'm hoping I perk up soon, but just letting everyone know what's going on.

Forgot to mention as I was sorting out everything for holiday but my laptops charging port is broken and no longer works, so even after I return from holiday I’m going to be posting on my phone while I get that repaired, so I’m going to be slower after I get back anyway

hello frendos

i will be in the Philippines from March 8 to March 22 for a family reunion. I will not have my laptop with me so any posts I make during this time will be phone posts and will generally be slower. I have an Away notice for part of this time, but if access to Internet proves spottier than expected, I'll post a second Away notice stating such.

I will likely post specific dates where my activity will be distant in the official away thread, but this is notice that starting May 20th - June 23rd that I will be abroad in Europe for school. My activity will be limited and even if I am around I will be looking to not be spending so much time in my phone or online throughout.

I’ll be a lot less available from now until the 5th due to being in Los Angeles for Anime Expo. I may still be able to get a post out but my availability will be significantly reduced and I won’t be able to do staff work. If I find I can’t post at all, I’ll switch this to away and post there. Starting the 5th I will be flat out not available for a few days but I will post in the away thread when that’s upon us.
