VerrKols Retirement
Hi all!
I know many of you don't know me well and if that's the case just move along, but for the few that care why I'll be retiring from maple for good I felt I should write a goodbye message instead of disappearing without a trace.
@ryuushinou @bluebomer24 @bowmushro0m
As some of you know, I've been playing Maple on and off since just after Beta ended. The game has had it's ups and downs, but this time my leaving has nothing to do with the game itself. I didn't expect to have to give this up so suddenly and it's embarrassingly difficult to do.
My mother was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. She won't be dying tomorrow and may even have several years left, but I need to spend all the time I can with her and help her as much as possible. MapleStory just isn't that important anymore.
I think I will miss the Archer community and our periodic "maple math" discussions most of all. I truly hope someone will step up to take my place and update the BM damage range calculator (sorry it's such a mess) and get to know the classes the same way I did to help out the poor newbs with their obvious questions. Oh and someone will have to update the BM/MM guide here, especially for RED. If I need to bequeath ownership or something I'll pop up periodically for a week or so to see if there are any volunteers.
I can't really think of what else to say, so I'll just leave it with goodbye.

Best wishes. Nobody knows who I am, but I know most of the dedicated archers here including bluebomer24 bowmushro0m ryuushinou and airforce1. I always loved the archer community and it is sad to see one go.
I hope your mother gets well soon, do take care.
As a person who also saw his mother wither away from breast cancer when I was 10, I sincerely hope your mother gets well.
Somehow...
Good bye, and i hope your mother gets well
Good Luck in the future! I have no idea how it feels to go through what you're going through, but I hope you and your mom get through it whole and hearty! Best Wishes!
Aww man... Who do I turn to for bowmaster expertise now?
That being said, I think it's a great choice you're making given the circumstances. I wish you guys well~
Best of luck Verr, you're a great person and I wish for the best. I know we haven't talked too much recently, but the times we were guildies were some of the best times I've had.
In regards to your mother, that is really depressing to hear, you have my deepest and sincere condolences. I am praying for her to beat the odds and live a long life.
You are a very intelligent person that has a bright future ahead of you. The Verrkol will be severely missed. I don't say goodbyes as I refuse to believe in them. So instead I hope you have a great journey to wherever life takes you.
You should stay with your mother, family comes before a game.
My deepest and sincerest condolences on such troubling news.
Really sorry to hear that about your mom.
My girlfriend's mom died of breast cancer.
I'll hope and pray for your mom to not face the same destiny.
And good luck to you, with your life without ms.
I'm sorry and good luck.
Not sure if u remember me, but I wish u all the best!
I always find your guides quite helpful, its a shame if people do not realize how much you have contributed for the archer community and you WILL be missed. I wish you and your family well... Though it may not mean much coming from me, but please accept my sincere condolences as well.
Goodbye and good luck with everything you do.
But don't be too sad that it's over, be glad that it happened. - Suess
best of luck mate
I don't know you, and I rarely bother to even log into basil.
However, I always saw your posts in the archer forms, and they were always very informative.
Thanks for all of the help you offered (to everybody), and best of luck.
Bye bye, VerrKol.
Best of luck to your mother. I hope she gets well.
Goodbye guy who taught me everything I need to know about archers.
good bye fellow mapler
take care and enjoy your time with your mom~
Peace, man. Thank you for the immense contributions to the Archer forums and community. Your input will be missed. May your mother see better days, and your family as well.
Thank you for your contributions on Archers community.
Best wishes out there buddy.
Hope you enjoy your time with your Mom.
byee person i dont know
Goodbye fellow mapler.
See you around, hopefully.
I'll miss you.
It's nice to see you care.
By the way, do you mean @bluebomber24 ?
I don't know you but I'll send my prayers to you and your family, especially your mother.
You'll be back someday dude. Even if it's years down the road. I can't speak for the others, but i'll still be here to talk. It's been a blast.
Good bye, even tho i never knew you and hope your mother gets well
.... Please accept my sincere condolences. I'm guessing there's nothing that can be done so I'll just say I hope you, your mother and family enjoy the limited time left. o.o
We'll all miss you and your services you have provided to the basil Archer community, notably the Archer guide. I say, slap Rujin's name on the guide so that he takes on the burden of updating it! and no I will definitely not volunteer.
(Btw you tagged me incorrectly -rage-)
For now, good bye and I won't expect a quick return but maybe just maybe in the distant future we'll see you on the forums (if we're still playing or still commenting on this forum that is).
