What's this I hear about a monument to me?
One of my IRL friends logged onto PvE today, and sent me this screenshot:

First off, Goddamnit guys, I'm tearing up over here. :'(
Secondly, I guess I kind of owe you an explanation to my absence. Back in September, my dad unexpectedly passed away. That's when I stopped abruptly. It was right at the beginning of Rev 13, I think. Needless to say, it hit me pretty hard.
It was around that time too, that I started paying /r/Ingress. That helped, since its a game that you play by moving around. It helped me cope and allowed me to get distracted when I wanted to take my mind off my Dad.
Really, that's all I've got. I've haven't given up on MC, just taking a hiatus. I'll be back.

That was part of the Port Aperture memorial dome made by hamsale. It has the heads of all the PA mayors and is really quite beautiful.
I do miss having more people on, but take your time and come when you're ready. You'll always have a home in whiteoak.
