Dear Steamgifts,

We've had some fun, you and I. But it's just not doing it for me any more, you know? The giveaway wins, they're more common, less special. I still love them, sure, but they just don't hold the same BANG that they used to (except that thing you do with your mouth. Yeeeah, that's the stuff). We've talked for over 11,000 comments and I've been sarcastic from puzzle giveaways to Support. It's been a good run.

But it's over now. I'm leaving you, Steamgifts. No, it's not about your sister, Playblink. We both know she could never hope to be like you. She's too much of a golddigger. No, there's no other site in my life. It's always just been about you and me, baby. But I'm feeling trapped, like I don't get enough free time. So this is it... goodbye. I'll never forget you. The hope as a giveaway closed, the tears when I lost a 3 entry, 2 copy giveaway, the smiles when I leeched another game from people more deserving, the people trading away my own giveaways. We've had some good times, you and I. But this is it. The end... goodbye, Steamgifts.

All my love,
thejadefalcon

P.S. I'm not really leaving, but my activity is going to sharply drop from September 12th onwards for six months. My very beautiful American girlfriend is finally coming back to England after nearly a year apart (six months together in a three year long relationship really sucks, by the way), so I'm going to be spending almost all of my time with her. I'll be back to annoying you all in six months, but I'll visit when I can throughout my "vacation." Love to you all, Jade. <3

P.P.S. Being back in Support has not changed this at all. I'm still going. I can just help the site before I do.

P.P.P.S. Is the SG equivalent of a Dear John letter a Dear xarabas?

September 12th. Have four hours before I head off to Heathrow to collect her. I've had fun knowing you all and I'll pop my ugly face back in as often as I can, but you can consider me officially buggered off at this point. <3 See you in six months!

But you've got all our souls!!

Sad to hear that jade, hopefully we'll see another topic like this that will be titled "I'm back", when you feel to be more active again. Thanks a lot, for everything :)

I think I'll just sum it up by saying: what everyone else said. It's a beautiful letter, and if Steam Gift's heart was broken by you leaving, it will be doubly so after reading this.

Just remember not to trade your American girlfriend for a Russian wife or gift her away by mistake. Some habits are hard to break.

So I guess Jade Falcons are the kind of birds that force other birds to migrate around the world while they sit in a nest chillin'? :>
Damn royalists :P
Good luck, have fun and beware of stalkers ;)

It's been fun having you around, reading your comments kinda made this site much more entertaining. Have a good time, now that you're going to have more of it! :-)

(And... I hate to ask... but... the April's creative contest? Do you think you could just post the submissions somewhere? No judging or announcing any kind of results, just allowing us to see one another's work?)
