I'm sure we all saw this coming

I'm officially closing st_xi_kink.

Not due to any recent problems, arguments, discussions or wank, may I add. Pure and simple: I'm back at school, and this year is one hell of a tough one. It's just... after one month, I simply cannot keep up with this comm. Many of you have probably noticed that, I'm sure. And I will, regrettably, not be taking

I'm so sad. I'd just found this site and I've only made it through 280 pages of the 300 and some. I'm glad that it will remain open so I can finish reading though.

Could you not perhaps ask someone to take over? I'm sure you could find a volunteer

[eternalwings]

Didn't see that and I'm sorry you feel that way but doesn't the comm also have people who tag and so forth? I've had a community like this myself and I had to leave, but I wouldn't have closed it because so many people enjoyed it so I passed it on.

I'm sad that it's closing, but I totally understand where you're coming from.

I hope that someone else can open up their own version, so you won't have to be responsible for choosing someone to take over this site. I know what that can be like.

Oh no!

I totally understand that you've got a real life, and you're overwhelmed, and I respect that (and hope that everything you're doing is as awesome as you are).

That said... I am going to MISS this shit! You provided me (and all of us, I think) with an amazing place to make friends and share some great fic of all flavors.

Thank you so much for this wonderful meme.

Oh. :(

This has been the absolute greatest initiation into any fandom ever. I have loved the staggering amounts of creativity I've seen here and I'm so incredibly sad that it's coming to an end, though I certainly understand how overwhelming it's been. Good luck with everything at school and thank you SO much for creating this meme in the first place.

I think you pretty much said exactly how I'm feeling, but way more eloquently that I would have managed.

Word.

[steamcry]

This.

This is everything that I feel and I want to say in a nutshell. I'm fairly heartbroken over this, but I'm glad the comm did exist in the first place. I'd rather feel sad about it closing than not have experienced it at all.
