Title: The Absence Topic
Post by: Tenaar Feiri on June 21, 2012, 04:31:45 am
I figure that instead of cluttering the forums with topics informing us of when y'all are gonna be gone for a while, why don't we instead just collate it all to one place?

This topic is my initiative for this. Basically, if you're gonna be absent for a while, for any reason, post it here!



I'll start =P

I'm going to be absent from Friday 22nd to Sunday 24th this week. Going camping! I'll see y'all late on Sunday or early Monday!


*edit June 22nd* Apparently I'm not going after all. Constipation + feeling like shit D:

Title: Moving!
Post by: Drubunneh on July 23, 2012, 08:12:17 am
I'm moving house on the 28th of July and internet in the new place doesn't go in until the following tuesday/wednesday so i will be absent a few days.

Can still IM me though it goes to my email on my mobile

Xela, due to circumstances, may not be online for the next two days.

Back now, the issue was that Sky decided to cut my services. I was told by their online support it would take 3 days. Phoned them, and they got it all sorted.

Due to a fuck up with my internet provider I won't be around for about 4 days, suffice to say, I am upset and pissed off. I hope to be back sooner

My computer has decided that it doesn't want to run secondlife. On any viewers. So, after two days of trying to fix this I've given up for the moment.  I should be moving in a  few days as well. I know this topic is for the more important people in lismore (:P nova *cough* *cough*)  but figured I'd say it here anyways. Make me think I'm special right? haha. Anyways, I probably won't be able to be back on until perhaps next monday.

This topic is for anyone who's not going to be around for whatever reason and feels like leaving a message here where all players and staff can see and know what's going on in case they wonder.

Ok, so what happened is that they accidentally cancelled my subscription in thought of that I had taken a business one, which was not true naturally. They needed to have all my information again (address, phone number, etc) so that they could register me again, registration will take several days sadly so I won't have Internet around saturday, I hope sooner naturally but that's all I can do, hope.

So hopefully I'll be back sooner but we'll see.

Due to stress and ongoing depression, I am hereby officially taking a break from Lismore for an undetermined time. Those who know me on Skype and other messengers may still contact me, and I will be selectively around from time to time when the need calls for it. Other then that I wont be available on Valencia Hydraconis in Lismore, nor on my other account Novaku Sirnah.

Take care all, I will be back in due time.
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Jannisia on September 19, 2012, 09:42:41 am
I'll be away indefinitely. One of my friends just decided to basically tell me that he was only close to my mate and that he hates me. So yeah, not going to be around. I don't feel like talking to anyone after that.

Post by: Caex on September 19, 2012, 04:28:55 pm
aloah all, due to a mix up with my isp and some construction work, i dont have internet. i'm at work typing this at the moment.

i should have internet by the 26th of this month.

My time online will be erratic this week at best. My love and I are celebrating 8 years together, I've just returned to martial arts and I have a trip to London on Saturday. So a packed week in RL! yay!
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Drubunneh on October 08, 2012, 01:18:40 pm
I'm going to be offline for a few days it seems. Something has gone wrong that my ISP are trying to fix. Some connections don't work and they have confirmed it's nothing to do with my equipment or my PC.
Essentially only some webpages load at a decent speed and also only some online games. SL sadly happens to be one that doesn't work at the moment.

I really hope they fix it soon. If I'm needed PM me on the forums or drop me an IM as it goes to my email I will respond when I can
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Drubunneh on October 09, 2012, 12:51:15 pm
Okay seems my issues were down to a double whammy of bad DNS and the sim not running quite as it should. Course with my issues I felt it worse. Back now!
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: firefoxinc on October 13, 2012, 06:01:26 am
Just so everyone knows.

I am at Camp Shelby currently. I will be here for the next 2 months.My internet is restricted to a cellphone on 3G CDMA. I do not know when or if I will be able to get on SL.
Title: HURRICANE SANDY (or whatever it's called)! GAAHH! DOOM! GAAHH!
Post by: Ashtyn on October 27, 2012, 11:15:13 pm
So they are predicting doom here for the East Coast because of some hurricane coming up the coast.
They are talking about it like it's going to be the Apocalypse or something, warning people to stock up and prepare for 7 or more days without electricity!

Well, the storm is supposed to hit here in Richmond within a few hours, so if I disappear, it's because I lost electricity/internet/life/something.

I'll try to get online from wherever I can leech internet from (usually the Barnes & Noble), but it's all still to be seen. So, if I disappear, it's because of the hurricane! If I don't disappear, it's because another doomsday failed us!  ;)

Love you all!

-Ash

Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Jannisia on November 14, 2012, 06:39:54 pm
I'll probably not be on for a good long time, as I'm very sick and can barely be coherent without spellcheck and a good 15 minutes to read over every post. I'll try to go online, but don't really expect much from me, as I'm quite literally unable to get out of bed unless I take painkillers.

Firefox. While it's nice to be able to tell others you may or may not be around in this thread this is not the place to moan about Lismore (again) without any suggestions for improvement (again)

Well that was fun. Infection lasted a good week, and my computer died a few days in. Just got it running again today. Will be on shortly, but not for long. Party.

I regret to inform that I will most likely be highly unavailable for the next couple of weeks, and will most likely not engage in RP in the time that I am online.

The reason for this is that I have just learned that my grandmother (on my mom's side, who happens to be very ill these days) is being subjected to physical and mental abuse by my grandfather, which at this point has served to make my grandma near deathly ill. She's currently unable to hold things without help, has no feeling in her hands & feet whatsoever, and is struggling quite badly with performing every day tasks. She's become unable to do even the most basic things, and she's not getting the help she needs because of her abusive husband & the family has therefore decided to intervene.

We're not 100% sure what's going on yet or who's going to take her away from that man, but it's most likely going to be my folks and I. It'll be decided later today, and tomorrow we'll probably be driving down to her city to fetch her.
Caring for grandma is going to be a full-time job & I have to prioritize her, and we'll need to anticipate that grandpa is going to come after her so we'll be having our hands full for a while.

I'm sorry if anyone feels shafted that I am having to cut down my RP presence. Here's to hoping it all goes well.

So it turns out that grandma most likely won't make the long trip up to our house (she can barely cope with past Oslo, which is still a few hundred miles away), so I'll still be present here after all, if a little reduced.

I really should have said this a few days ago, but I'm leaving Lismore indefinitely. I don't know if I'll be able to come back. This has nothing to do with anything online, and is more related to recent issues IRL.

I may be more absent this month as I am preparing to relocate to a new home <3 I'll try to have IT and everything else I need ready when I move in there, but I may poof for a little while. I'll post pictures of the apartment once I'm all settled in!
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Tenaar Feiri on March 20, 2013, 04:11:40 pm
I've relocated to my new apartment & I'm Internet-less for 3-4 weeks. Glorious! </sarcasm>

But seriously though, there's a lot of work left to be done here but I'm already enjoying myself. Atm using the mobile IT for my computer, but right now it doesn't look stable enough for SL. I'll keep you posted, though I will probably not be able to get online with y'all for a while. I've got some pictures I can share with you (once I'm allowed to copy the hyperlinks).

This has already been going on for a while, but it may be quite a while before I become active in RP again. Since the last moving event i haven't had much desire or opportunity to do any rp, so it's just kind of eluding me for now.

My router appears to be broken, allowing me on and kicking me off for random amounts of time. Until I can get it fixed or replaced, my presence on SL will be pretty fleeting. ): I'll have to communicate widely through Gtalk on my phone and PMs here on the forums for now - so if you need my attention, please use one of the two!

Dad's injured himself & is going to have surgery in the foot so I'll be staying at their place for a few days. May not be active on SL at all during that time, we'll see.

My sister is coming later today so I'm gonna fill in for her when she goes back home this weekend. That means I won't be gone yet. Soon but not yet.

Also, stickying this topic.

My desktop monitor failed today. Unfortunately, I can't currently afford to replace it and won't be able to access SL until I have a new one.


Edit: It looks like I was able to get it back on, but i'm fairly certain this will keep happening until it eventually won't turn on anymore.
Title: Re: The Absence Topic
Post by: Tenaar Feiri on June 09, 2015, 06:44:27 pm
My presence in Lismore may be more limited for the next few days, due to the threat of maybe getting visits from a convicted felon after I had to deny his girlfriend access to my drugs.

Starting tomorrow I have a new job. I probably won't be able to make it home during the weekdays until 4 PM SLT at the earliest. And I'll probably be dog tired for the next few weeks while I adjust to having a full time job.

I have moved out of the shelter where I was staying at for the past month, and have moved in with a friend who is housing me until my HUD comes through. Once that comes through and I have my Lease signed, I'll be working on getting internet at the new place, but until such time, I will be unable to be on at any scheduled time. I will make time to be on as much as possible.

I don't know if this will be actual absence, but my computer just died.
I have a backup but it's barely enough to handle SL on the low settings, so, I might not be as active as usual for a while until I can figure out how to get a new computer.

I have just recently returned from an extended break. Had alot of RL sorting out to do. However, I am back for a short while. Thats the good news, bad news I have until September 20th. After that I will be gone until roughly January. I've always hated that I can only pop in for a few months at a time but I intend to make the most of it this time.

ICly, Amelia left shortly before everything started happening. She went back to Egypt to visit her daughter and check on their nation and has now returned.

Feel free to ping me to rp. Like to do as much as I can before I have to leave again. Cheers.
