The "I quit / pause / return / change / etc." thread

I pause being a member of this forum. It might be a week, it might be a month, it might be forever. Goodbye forum peoples.
 
Everytime I see this thread bumped, I click in anticipation, hoping that a nublet will leave. :d

More often than not, I'm left in disappointment.
 
I quit buying useless amounts of cubes and I'm following thrawsts philosophy that you should only buy cubes if you really need them, not because you can.

I quit being wasteful with stickers, food, and items I take for granted everyday. Only replace items when necessary, not because you can.

I quit being a slacker in school. My grades and B's and A's but I know that I can do better. My goal by the end of 8th grade is an all A-'s or above in all by classes.

I quit drinking soda and junk food.

It's time for change for me.
 
Some of you may remember me from the twisty puzzle forums. I'm back to cubing after a break for about a year. I'm down to a sub-30 average with Fridrich, around 35 with petrus, and I'm starting to practice Roux (sub 50).
 
I pause my forum/cubing addiction for a month. I broke my average of 5 and 12 record today, and now I think it's time to take a break.

brb.
 
I start learning full OLL
i start complaining to C4Y for the crappy quality in puzzles i've gotten, 2 broken puzzles in 1 month, and non-sticky stickers! WTF?

i stop trying to learn bld, i just can't do it

i stop practicing 7x7, it isn't that important to me.

i start advanced edge pairing in 4x4, NEED IT.

i stop this post. it's pretty long.
 
I return to this forum and speedcubing in general. Unfortunately I still suck with a best RA today of 21.90. The WRs certainly have improved, and now there are 89348 different kinds of DIY it seems. Looks like not that much else has changed, though.
 
I quit the forums. For a long time. I'll cube a little bit, maybe in the summer, but I won't be around here too often.

I stop cubing after tomorrow. I really haven't touched a cube more than twice in a month, and it has been one of the best months since I first learned how to solve a cube exactly one year ago. Tomorrow, I'll do a forum competition, Sunday contest, and hang it up until spring break. If I'm not really feeling the bug then, I may quit forever. I still will keep my cubes as my FB profile, but that's just a baller picture.
 
I pause touching any twistypuzzles or doing anything related to them until I sleep from the hours of 11pm to 7am for seven days in a row.
 
I quit doing every event in the weekly competition every week. I know I promised to do my best every week this year, but in the past few weeks cubing lost its priority to me. The spare time I do want to spend on cubing, I would like to spend on practising whatever event I like, not whatever event I haven't done for this week's weekly yet.

I wish Simon and Mats the best of luck to finish what I had as my goal at the start of this year: getting over 12500 points, although I'm pretty sure Simon will get over 15000.
