Farewell, and to all a good night

I just looked at my profile, and found that I've just now hit my second year on this website. Woo. Now, I know a lot of you have been on here for five times that, but for me it feels like forever since I signed up in order to make a Tezzeret, Artifice Master brawl deck based around getting Omniscience into play (that's where my username comes from lol).
I'm turning 16 this year--I was 13 when I joined TappedOut, wow--and even though I love magic, and this lovely community... my life's speeding up and I really don't have the time for either anymore.
It's been fun while it lasted. Infinite thanks to those who've been kind, I feel lucky to have had this space for so long.
Shout-outs! To yeaGO, for making and maintaining this website; Caerwyn, being a great moderator (though I know your don't like that word, sorry friend) and generally being a menace to try and argue with; Polaris, Rhadamanthus, and Gidgetimer for teaching me--mostly indirectly, but still--so much about the finer points of this great game we play; wallisface and Balaam__ for consistently giving great advice to players, both new and old; legendofa, Epicurus, and TypicalTimmy for being generally enjoyable people to exist around (a far underrated role in any community); and so many more.
I might return eventually. I might not. We'll see, won't we? Adieu.
It has really been awesome having you around! Of course i hope you'll be back at it some day soon, and we'll be here for ya, and check in any time you like :)

It's been a good ride. If you get a chance, come on back and say hi and catch us up; we'll keep a seat open for you. If not, best of luck and all success to you going forward!

Best of luck. Magic is like an mmo you never really quit you just take a break and come back fresh.

Ah, I’ll be sorry to see you go. I enjoyed looking at many of your decks; more than once I gleaned some new ideas or interesting interactions from them. Perhaps one day you’ll grace us with another. Until then, farewell.

Hey bud, sorry to see you go. Hopefully you can find a place for magic in the future when stuff slows down (assuming you want to).
Take care.

All the best, absolutely : ) I haven't been here too long, but you've always seemed to have great insight and a positive attitude, and those two things will carry you far in whatever you pursue. Hope that your time treats you well!

I was 12 when I started playing Magic, but that was in 1993, hahaha. I've only been on this website for about 2 years myself, so it's good to know that I've made an impression. And from an old man, believe me, you'll never stop playing. I've taken breaks from the game that have sometimes lasted years. But there's always a set or two that get me excited about the game again.
Then I had children, and eventually they were old enough to teach how to play as well, and I got so excited to see them being excited about the game that I jumped both feet back into it, and (amongst other things) joined this site.
In other words, you'll be back. We'll be waiting. Take care.
Cheers!

That's kinda sad, but thanks for being a part here. There are many decks of yours I really enjoyed, and your time definitely seemed longer than only three years.
Good luck for the future, go get what you wish for!
