I still can't believe I actually have posts, like at all. Seriously. Nearly a thousand even. It kinda scares me sometimes when I really think about it. I feel like that's too many posts.
Sometimes I wonder why I'm still here. It's like, I never really did any SMW Hacking aside from random levels here and there. I mean, I do have an idea for a hack I want to do (it's a pretty short one and a pretty funny/silly idea at that) but the most important factors to its conclusion are:
A. lack of time (college + work + other projects);
B. lack of interest (see above); and
C. lack of skill (specially compared to everyone else here).
Doing better levels or a hack would require me building up skill, and that would require either free time and/or more interest. So...yeah.
Originally posted by Sixcorbyi don't understand why people try to convince themselves that they're "quitting"/"retiring" from a simple hobby (like smw hacking) or a video game they've put a lot of hours into. it's not like it's some big serious decision that you can't easily undo. not sure why it needs to be more complicated than just doing it when you feel like doing it, and not doing it when you don't feel like doing it.
I mean, interests shift and sometimes people will need to manage their free time in different ways than before. It's not as much of a heavy decision but I guess it's important to tell yourself "hey you know this thing that you used to do? well, strike it out of your to-do list indefinitely because you ain't doing it anymore". Sometimes it's difficult to tell yourself that.
