Um.
Wall of text.
Taylor just resigned from being admin.
And sent me a PM saying "goodbye"...
...
Things look too serious...
I hope you'll come back to being an admin when you're feeling better, Taylor.
And I've prayed for your father.
You probably already found out that I resigned. This is permanent. I won't be returning.
Please don't be mad, but... I can't take it anymore.
So please... disable my account. I have no more use of it anymore.
Goodbye, Shane.
Tell the others that I'm sorry... okay?
Um.
This just worries me even more.
I really hope I truly hope Taylor's father'll be 100% okay...
Taylor's absence and her tragedy doesn't put me in a good mood to post here.
...oh, goodness...
Taylor's absence and her tragedy doesn't put me in a good mood to post here.

Well, we just have to go on, in any case.
If these forums die... then it would be a betrayal of what she did.
Yes, I back-read the entire thread, so I know that she revived the forums at around 4 April this year. (I think. I might have gotten confused with the months.)
And if the forums die this time... then it would be a betrayal of that action.
Let's just continue to have fun... and also not forget about thinking of her.
Who knows...
Maybe one day... when things go well for her again... she'll return.
And when she does... we had better be ready.
Besides, I'm not disabling her account because... I don't know how to do that.
And deleting it would make all posts made by her disappear, including threads she started.
(Taylor said she made an alt once to test that.)
...
Right!
I'm not sure what to do regarding the RPGs and The Battle... but maybe I should just control all Taylor's characters until then.
...
...
...
I think I'm actually crying...
...I can't believe I didn't know of this till now...
....
I don't feel like typing.
I hope she'll return some day. Soon.
Don't worry...
Your hope has come true.
Shane... told me something important.
I'll be posting it in some "quotes" thread.
Shane... you deserve a medal.
Not only for cheering me up, but also for wanting to keep these forums alive...
Thank you.
No problem... I think?
And everyone, sorry for... all the chaos and angst and worry I put you guys through.
I promise to try and not let anything get me down...
"Never give up no matter what", right?
Yeah...
... Apparently, someone's logic is flawed... -_-"
Someone thinks that I am Shane because the word "she" and the name "Shane" both starts with an "S".
What.
.....
That's the same logic as banning someone because they have a similar avatar.....
And it gets worse...
Someone else thinks I'm Shane because he thinks "Taylor" has 5 letters... And my name has 6 letters.
How stupid can some people get?
Apparently... some people just
want to believe that you are me to the point of making contradictory statements?
Hi. I'm back.
I see that these forums are just falling down, down, straight to hell. We lost Shane "TED", we lost Taylor... So we lost the administration, really. There's nobody important left, except KarjamP. He is the one who should guide the forums. He is the only person that is capable of doing that.
I'm actually a bit worried that Richard'll abuse that power...
But I'm back... right?
It's up to Shane if he wants to promote me back to admin or not.
(Knowing him, though, he'll probably do it...)
Already done.
Taylor was the one who has been a longer admin than I, after all.
The new Shane... Just doesn't seem to fit in that place. He should just practise his spriting, because that's what he's good at.
He is pretty good with spriting, I must admit... far better than me, that's for sure.
He just has to prove that he's better with spriting than TED, in my opinion...
... I think I'll try to do those sprites that you asked TED to do... although just one question.
WHY in blazes are they mostly Fate/Stay Night characters?
Isn't it an NSFW visual novel?
In my opinion, the forums should have:
KarjamP + Shane as admins (Shane should stay, because he is TED's "descendant"),
Polaris and GalanDun as Global Moderators,
Kushagra and Dr. Time as people related to the Battle in some way.
Not to mention that the account Shane is using is the Forum Founder's account, which can't be removed from Admin status... I think?
Oh really, Taylor?
I just removed myself from Admin rank.
Temporarily, of course, but still. It proves that the forum founder can un-Admin himself.
Where is my place then, you may ask? Nowhere. I don't deserve the right to have any special traits on these forums, and therefore I don't want to have the MotM title. Give it to Taylor, TED, or whoever else. But don't keep it on me; it hurts.
That is where you're wrong: you are (to my knowledge) the best ASM hacker of all the members of these forums.
You even made a shoot-em-up mod.
That... is what my opinion is, anyway.
Um. A shoot-em-up mod.
I think I ought to play it after I study the mods TED made.
You are all talking about not letting these forums die. What about SCS Forums, then? You threw them into dust, letting everyone forget about them.
You have me to blame for that, Wayne.
I did revive these forums, after all...
She's right on that; I try to access the SCS Forums as often as possible.
Just made two posts there.
I am apparently the only person that still visits SCS. And it's even a better place than DRPF. Oh, and I still dislike the Dragon Riders name. Shane's Cave Story was ten thousand times better. Think about changing it back, maybe? I don't try to change your mind, but it's not a good name for just a CS Edit.
I agree, at least regarding the mod's name. The fanfic version could have "Shane's Cave Story" as a title or episode name or something like that.
I can't access the SCS Forums anymore, unfortunately...
Somehow I lost it a few days before my breakdown... (is that the right word? )
I think so, Taylor.
Anyway, I visit the SCS Forums, just rarely.
As for The Battle Forums... it's extremely inactive.
In any case, I'll consider it.
Mods. Are you even trying to learn how to mod? Will you continue TED's mods? If not, you are betraying my work. I spent days and hours doing hacks for TED, and if you abandon your mods with those... You shall be punished. I don't like working for nothing.
I'm... fairly certain that he's studying the mods that TED made and that he plans on working on them again. If he isn't... well... Shane already knows what I'll do to him.
Nobody likes working for nothing, after all.
Yeah, I'm studying the mods. And regretting it. TED really likes those death-traps...
In any case, I may as well keep the mods as they are, and add on to those.
At the moment, I'm waiting for Taylor to post the dialogue of Hope of Shané... but I probably should work on the other mods too, right?
...
Say, Wayne?
Do you remember what hacks you did for TED?
What else can I say? I am not used to write walls of Flesh text, but this was the time to do that.
May you all live in peace.
~Wayne
And you spoke your mind, your opinions...
And then Taylor and I make even larger walls of text.
