[SAD UPDATE] I may need to wave goodbye... (Patreon)

Ehy there people... I bring sad news...

Lately I haven't been much active around here and there's a reason.
It's extremely hard for me to do so, but I may need to move on from XTENSE (or MMDFun for the real man culture around here) and cease "operations" here...

I like to think about life as many chapters in a movie that is about your own life.
This chapter, for me, is coming to an end after almost 4 years (damn, seems yesterday) starting when the pandemic changed life for all of us around the world.

To explain shortly, I have recieved the chance to move again for work, this time even more distant from my home.
It's still to be decided the exact details, but these past week (and the future ones) I worked really hard to get this chance and it may materialize soon.
I moved already for work and it has only brought good things in my life (apart from the 10000 challenges lol) so I'm willing to do it once again, even because the country in question is one that I always wished I could stay a few years in my life.

It's a very big opportunity for me that I cannot let go, and it comes with a complete new set of responsabilities that will make impossible for me to keep up with Patreon aswell.
Just preparing for this is taking me away from my PC desk more, and I don't want to run a content page fed with your support while ending up with huge delays.
Right now I obviously paused next month billing, and I plan to keep doing it every month until I have a better view on how to deal with my content.
I don't want to get it lost, I worked so many hours to make those little animations that it would be a pity to let die.

I had one animation started for March, maybe in the future it'll be completed, but atm I really can't go forward with any of this.

I mean, at some point in life I knew this was gonna happen.
I never wanted my life to become conditioned too much from keeping up the work here on Patreon, and I think i reached a breaking point.
The work is the main catalyst, but in general it's time I move on for me.

For the 100th time, I also want to thank you for making all this possible.
I started for fun, to mimic what others were doing but in my own scenarios, and from there it just kept rolling.
I learned a lot, and I felt like I made something of my own in life.
Silly maybe. Very weird and specific possibly.
But still, it was my project, and you gave me the chance to play the game, and I really appreciate this like you can't imagine.

I am deeply sorry to go for it like this, with a simple few words...
But the more I would keep delaying, the worse would become for the feeling you may have towards me.

With that said, I hope you don't feel bad about it.
I think I gave my fair share of content for some of the community around BI, and I'm pretty sure newcomers will come and go, bringing even better content that what I was able to put togheter.
I like to think that maybe someone starts because I inspired them, like Imbapovi and others did for me a few years back.

Before I close, I want to also thank SwellReads (aka NameTaken) for all the support he gave me during the years.
I remember him reaching out after I posted 1 clip on a forum offering help on the audio and he was always consistent with it.
He really made a huge difference in my production quality and speed, and can't really thank him enough. Pay him a visit!

Wish the best of luck with everything you got in life.
You'll always be a part of my story, and I hope I'll be for you aswell <3

I'll give further details on what I intend to do with the Discord and the page later on. For now everything will be kept as it is, with the Patreon billing paused.
