Hey SK. Just stopped in like all of us older players tend to do from time to time and took a look around. I got to say I was in shock at the fact that there was hardly anyone signed up for the next round. Not even a Multi Bot script. I suppose that this game is finally taking that last nail in the coffin we all have talked about for years.
I started playing this game shortly after the Original Betas of version 1 (13 years ago?). And back when Galaxies Expanded out to Sector 40:40. And I can honestly say that there were (and still a couple ) people that I could truly call friends. This game provided an outlet for me as a Teenager, and I was very grateful for it. Over the years I played less and less as I grew up, Got married, had kids of my own, divorced, and really just lived life. But still every now and then there was something that always brought me back to this game, although many of the faces had changed, there was something Nostalgic about typing www.starkingdoms.com . I suppose this is a goodbye to a game, a place, that I am not sure I will get another chance to see. And even a goodbye to a piece of my childhood.
For any of you still left, who knew me when I played, I just want to say thanks for the memories, the chats, and the genuine fun I had playing this game with you guys. It was one hell of a trip.

Buddy, your priorities are right being with your family. Keep it that way.
Not hard to rule the Universe with an Iron fist when your the only one in it.
The sad part is, this game didn't have to sputter out this way. But I am not going to bash @BCartfall for it. As I stated in my Original post, this game gave me 13 years of enjoyment and friendship. And honestly, I have Brian to thank for that. He did create this game, and he did leave it running all this time (whatever problems the game has had aside). I am grateful that I got to meet and grow up with a lot of people around this game.
It would be cool if we could revive this place somehow
The system is down. The system is down.
I've come back so many times just to find out everyone is multis. I am reluctant to sign up someone tell me it is ok to play!
