You owe none of us an explanation, and most won't ask. I will always watch on as a supporting friend, no matter the content. You have to enjoy as much of the time you have here in the real world as you get.

And to not only get it from familiar friends from years of blogging, but from readers I have never heard from before. I don't know what to say other than I'm not going away or anything, you're just going to get less fill and more thrill out of me. I have a lot of stuff I have been working on and I am excited to show you. I have a big trip this weekend to a GT at my favorite FLGS and I actually plan to sit in one spot and paint and chat all day this Friday ... Followed by two days of tournament play. Wish me luck and hopefully I get some more WIP posts up!TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-83954984938621827822013-03-19T22:09:47.860-04:002013-03-19T22:09:47.860-04:00Sorry SoT, some of the flair for drama must of clu...Sorry SoT, some of the flair for drama must of clung to me!

As long as you continue to write excellent posts whenever you feel like it, people will still come. So do whatever you like! It is your blog, and if you don't want to write a post you don't have to. Look at my blog, I haven't posted for 4 weeks and I am yet to wake up to an angry mob of disappointed readers. (But then, 18 or so people isn't a very intimidating mob.

It is an individual thing with social interactions and connotations. <br /><br />Blog about what you want...it is your blog. When it stops being fun, time to re-evaluate.<br /><br />This is why my blog is about 40k and weightlifting. Two seemingly unrelated activities. But, it is my blog about what I like to do...you either dig it or you don't. I don't write for others, I write for myself...kinda thing.<br /><br />I get a kick out of high view counts or more followers...but I will still do what I am interested in.<br /><br />So, go for it.

There have always been some great articles on here, and in an effort to be more I understood the news articles, but I always felt DFG was closer to FTW than a BoLS type site and can appreciate it returning to those roots.<br /><br />Good luck to you and I hope to be here for the next iteration of DFG.<br />Xzandratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727954909325918136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-35438102762181349532013-03-19T13:19:35.630-04:002013-03-19T13:19:35.630-04:00But, I liked the OST handle. :p
Really, thought, ...But, I liked the OST handle. :p<br /><br />Really, thought, if this is the move that needs to happen for you to get your fire back, and hopefully continue posting your own painting/conversion stuff, then I'm all for it. I would much rather have one excellent post a month than the same old regurgitated news and rumors (no offense intended) that I get EVERYWHERE else with a few "Oh, that reminds me, I've been painting/converting..." posts sprinkled in. I didn't start reading this blog for the news and rumors, I came here for the excellent hobby posts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561492840225139638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-14040317729792789182013-03-19T13:03:19.845-04:002013-03-19T13:03:19.845-04:00In more than five years of blogging (to include mi...In more than five years of blogging (to include military stuff back in the day) that is the best said advice I think new bloggers could get.

So do the hobby related activities that you enjoy when you enjoy and, on your schedule, post about what matters to you.<br /><br />I can't stress this enough to individuals. Don't post things to draw in readers or to be on the cutting edge of new developments. Post things that matter to you.<br /><br />The hobby needs more hobbyists.Chronowraithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16305059671158364198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-32667515432198242512013-03-19T12:32:18.555-04:002013-03-19T12:32:18.555-04:00What is it with all the pseudonym hatred of late? ...What is it with all the pseudonym hatred of late?

With FTW having gone on hiatus (at least that's what I still hope it is...) quite a while ago , I'd hate to see another of my favourite wargaming watering holes close down, so do whatever you must to keep this up and running -- and fun!<br /><br />It goes without saying that being allowed to contribute a couple of posts to DFG has been one of the high-points of my blogging "career" so far, and in case you need help with anything, just give me a holler.<br /><br />In any case, I will continue to come here every day, and I hope the blog will be as much fun for you again as it has always been for the rest of us.<br /><br />Oh, and post more of your conversions, dammit ;-)Krautscientisthttp://eternalhunt.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-52548004413342725222013-03-19T11:23:13.576-04:002013-03-19T11:23:13.576-04:00No idea how you held up that pace for this long.
