Well I haven't exactly been "gone" but the reason(s) I haven't been on Black Ops are as follows:
Got several new games (Homefront, Crysis 2, Dragon Age 2 and Fable 3. Along with some Kinect games for my girlfriend but those don't count ) and when I'm on I've been more interested in playing those than Black Ops.
Got really tired of all the bullshit happening in matches. Not necessarily from anyone in the clan, but people in general.
And most importantly...My Dad went to the hospital after having his 2nd stroke in a span of 3 days (it was his 4th this year) and is currently in rehab because the entire right side of his body is almost completely dead.
Sooo...yeah. I'm planning on getting on Black Ops a lot more now, and I apologize for leaving you guys hanging like that.
