Long story short, I started this RP on New Year's Eve of, 2012-2013, and it just ended today August 5 of 2014. I really put my best effort into it, but all things come to an end. I couldn't lead it anymore, and no one else was able to do it either, so there was no choice.
But I just feel guilty about it, I mean, I started a RP and it was my responsibility, and yet it ended so abruptly. After so long, it's just gone. One of the members told me that the RP still had a lot of potential, but is that really true? I could tell we were all getting a bit bored...So, when do you know when to end something like that? Is there ever really supposed to be an end? When do you know when it's time? I wish I knew these things.
I don't know how many of you can sympathize with this. It's not like everyone has run a RP. I was really dedicated, and so were the members. We RPed a lot. We had a lot of fun. But I don't know if anyone ever knows when it's time to truly end something, it's like you just want to keep it going and going, no matter what it takes, even if the RP gets dragged into the ground. You just don't know when to stop.
In this case I guess I was lucky. We were all kind of done with it. I could tell we were all less enthusiastic when we RPed. My mom told me to knock it off, she doesn't want me in my room all night anymore. No one else seemed capable of leading the RP. The only answer was obvious.
Yet I feel guilty. I feel sad. I feel an emptiness.
We had fun. We made memories. We made friends.
So I guess this is the end. Good bye, my RP. Even though I'm still not sure that it was the right decision to end it so abruptly, I know that it wasn't for nothing. All of our efforts were not in vain.
All fun things must come to an end.
