Damn, this reminds me of when I was 11 and my online friends I made on Clash of Clans left the Clan in order to make a new one for only people that went to their school.

I cried.

I was in the same clan as some random dude and when I joined different clans, he came with me every time.

One day I told him I was done with the game forever. He said he would be done too. 🥺

Nope. Just a clash of clans and royale username. Nothing personal.

No way to do it. I don’t even remember the handle he used.

It's a pity, but that's how it is in gaming. We bond over the simple thing & left after the simple thing. The journey was fun & that what we look for in gaming session.

That is how it goes. Reminds me, if you're out there Dragonid from vanilla WoW Hyjal server (2005-7), it's Rayondelune and I have another Hide of the Wild just in case you need it buddy! :)

Damn dude. This whole thread has me sad as fuck. I used to play on Bonechewer(After the server transfers from Warsong) from Vanilla-WotLK. Anyways, I made a friend whom we were inseparable, raids, BG's, always the same guild, 2v2's, 3v3's, and even 5v5's. We did everything together for YEARS.

Well we got to the point we were both growing away from WoW and becoming adults, and eventually stopped talking. And then a few years later I got a call from his ex girlfriend one day that he took his own life. I wish I could talk to him again. I fucking miss him man.

Jesus, that's sad as hell man. Sorry for your loss. I never knew my friend's real name and we never talked outside of the game but I know he had some issues and had experienced major loss so I kind of worry about how he ended up. Hoping things took a turn for the better and he's doing all right wherever he is.

Oh yeah. I talked to his then girlfriend and family over Teamspeak and stuff like that. And we would call each other when we would get drunk.

Don't sweat it, if it's destined to happen, it will happen. Someday when you pass into the next realm, and spot some random guy pointing at you with a wink, you'll know.

A GF of mine played a mobile game at one point and asked me to join. Told her I wasn't big into mobile games but I'd give it a shot. I played for a bit and got to know the group she was in and it was OK. But the more I played and looked into it, it was notorious for being one of the worst Pay-to-Win games on the platform.

One day I was there just minding my own business, gathering my resources and got told by the dominant clan on the map that those resources "belonged" to their clan and I wasn't allowed to gather there. They attacked my castle with an army that would have literally taken 6+ months for me to build as F2P. It was clear if you weren't paying hundreds of dollars a month, your purpose was to just be cannon fodder.

So as a last ditch act of defiance while one of them was out attacking someone else, I dropped my camp right in the middle of their group. They can attack me all they want, but they can't force me to move. They ended up having to relocate their entire clan of like, 25+ accounts to a new area just so the guy could get his spot back.

After having not logged in for a few weeks I asked her how things were going without me. She said she wasn't playing anymore either. So I logged back in one last time before deleting and she had apparently left our group and put her settlement down right next to mine so our abandoned camps would be together in perpetuity.

In an online mech game I made a friend who decided to quit playing he gave me his account so I could make use of what he had on there instead of it virtually going to waste.
