Stepping down as raid member

[saori]

Hello all,
 
After thinking on it for a while it has come clear to me that my current personal situation prevents me to keep-up with the level required to raid the current end game content. Last year I made a big effort to improve and to catch-up, thing that I think I had accomplished and which brought me up to a similar level of my same class raid members, but now, after the xmas period, I saw that all our dps classes had been quite active during this holiday time (which is great for the progress of the raid group and objectives of the guild as a whole) and now I'm again way behind the raiders from my same class, as well as other dps classes.
 
I honestly don't think that I have the energy to catch-up and keep-up with the same level anymore.
 
I think it's the moment to stepback on raiding and go for social member, as my raid spot can be filled by someone that will provide more consistent results than me, as well as distribute evenly the DKP's that I would get otherwise in raid among everybody else and help the guild to progress better in the instances.
 
It has been great raiding for the last half a year with DMR, a really nice experience. It's a pitty that due to my working hours as well as my live location in the other part of the world prevent me of continuing.
 
I will stay in guild as social member and play from time to time during my day time (for a change! and I wish you all the best killing Arthas.
 
Cheers,

Sao
