I've been debating to myself whether this will have the effect I wish it to; but I figure posting is better than not in this case.
If I (of all people) know your name - you're not unknown.
I can't remember when I first saw the alias, but I loved it - it's an intelligent mix of blizzard lore, sc2 and the #1 thing people like TargA hate - PANDERING (as well as for the obvious biased panda reasons)
I've once been down the same road, where the most logical solution to help friends and family was 'the ultimate sin' - but thanks to support of people like those here in SC2 community (and Nick Vanzetti); you sit down and look at yourself and go... Man I'm freakin' awesome. Why would I quit being THIS?!
Remember; you've been a winner since before you were born. You were in a race against literally millions and billions and won the right of birth. You're only 19 - but simply making 19 puts you miles ahead of the competition. Christ, a huge percent of people here are at or under 25 - you're not even at the quarter line in a lifetime that can that could potentially be building up to a point many years later.
Look at some of the most famous and influential people the world has ever seen - so many of them were total pieces of shit (some even suicidal also), then they overcame hurdles, pressure - and I'm sure many suffered as you have; then 10-20 years later they do something ******* amazing - just look at these motherfuckers;
Guy Laliberté - this nerd invented Cirque du Soleil after being homeless
Howard Schultz - this loser made Starbucks after living in his car for years
Leonardo Del Vecchio - abandoned orphan who now owns Ray-Ban and Oakley!
Roman Abramovich - The BATMAN of oil; from dead parents -> crazy billionaire with mega yacht
J.K. Rowling - Harry potter chick was on centrelink living week to week poor as dirt...
That's just 5 that I randomly know of - there's literally millions and who's to say you're not going to be one of them!
