Greetings, members of the Roblox Assault Team! As you can tell by the title of this forum post, I have decided to resign from my position as Great Admiral of RAT, Head of the External Affairs Department, Overseer of Sparrow Corp, and Overseer of Immortals. For the past few weeks, I’ve been fighting the urge to quit this clan, however today is the day I must take my leave.

The primary reason that I have decided to quit is due to the fact that RAT is no longer, how you say, “fun” anymore. All that happens these days is an occasional training is hosted, followed by a raid in which we usually lose, another training, etc. I used to think these were the most fun experiences I could have ever enjoyed on Roblox, however after joining other clans and seeing what they had to offer in terms of fun events, multiple training sessions, and a wide variety of events, I started to fade away from RAT quite a bit.

Some of the other reasons I quit are quite simple: The high-ranks are independant of themselves. I’ve tried hosting many “fun” events to keep activity up, as well as a few trainings just to give people a chance to earn prestige. I thought of it as a way to spend my time in a more enjoyable way in RAT, and to distract me from my urge to leave this clan and search for other possible oppurtunities. After realizing I was one of the only ones making substantial progress in the clan, I started hosting these events less regularly to give my co-workers a chance at showing the clan world just how active and able they are at their job. The results that I found, especially from some of our Marshals and Admirals, turned out to be quite horrendous, making my decision of leaving the clan much easier.

Another small reason is probably because of self-esteem related problems that I deal with in the clan. To put it simply, I feel as though a lot of RAT members think of my position as a Great Admiral in RAT as a joke, and that someone more deserving should be replacing me. I continue to get remarks from some people stating that I can’t fix this clan, or that I shouldn’t even try, and comments like these do tend to pile up within someone. I just can’t bother to serve people that despise me and my rank (This doesn’t apply to everyone, just some specific people).

Lastly but not least, probably the most reasonable explanation as to why I’m leaving is because of all the current problems in the clan that just can’t be fixed with the current leadership RAT faces. The biggest of these problems, as Piede has probably mentioned before he was exiled, has got to be bias itself. Sure, bias can’t be stopped, however RAT has somehow managed to allow it to escalate it to the point where people who are deserving of a rank are often overlooked or are just simply ignored altogether. Quite too often I found many of my peers to be apart of social groups (don’t worry, I won’t list your names, seeing as everyone knows who you are), and as we all know, social groups never work in a clan environment.

One of the largest and most noticeable social groupings we all know about belong to cj and nuke. This clan just can’t function properly with these two in power. For those who think it’s cj with help from the Inperium calling all the shots as to what should be implemented into the clan, you’re wrong. The only person who controls everything in this clan is Nuke; no one else. Sure it’s cj who owns the clan, but with nuke sitting by his side, threatening to break up with him if he doesn’t do whatever he wants on a kid’s game, RAT will never get any better.

To be honest, I first considered quitting about a month after the New Frostarian Union was introduced. At the time I thought of it as a rebellion trying to overthrow cj10127, in which I was completely against from the start. About a few weeks later, noticeable people such as Estceque came back as he actually enlightened me as well as the Inperium about the problems RAT faces. If it hadn’t been for him, I would have never thought anything was wrong with RAT.

The time I first considered quitting was when I marshalled one of my greatest friends on this game, BlackHawk100. He had the same story as me; he was completely anti-ColourTheory and wanted nothing to do with him. However once his options swayed into his head, he realized that RAT was indeed destined for failure. The day he told me he was leaving RAT was the day I felt most enlightened on RAT’s current situation, and from then on I’ve been considering leaving this clan.

The real moment of frustration that probably pushed me to the extreme of actually hitting the “Leave Group” button has got to be Nuke himself. Over the past few days, I as well as pretty much everyone else in the Inperium has tried to get cj to understand just how lazy and undeserving Nuke is of his job. When we posted on the Inperium wall stating just how inactive Internal Affairs is, cj decided to defend Nuke, threatening that 8G would no longer be released in 2013 but instead in late March 2014 due to my actions. I often post a few posts on the Inperium from time to time, just to escape Nuke’s wrath and all the drama that takes place from within, and Nuke just seems to find a way around things to start arguments and ultimately make me look like a huge idiot. Well, look who’s the idiot now.

Before I take my leave, I’d like to put the spotlight on some incredible people that helped me through my journey through the clan world, as well as some not-so-great people.

cjsaurusrex/cj10127: When I first realized ColourTheory was going to give up the clan, I instantly routed for you, and I still am rooting for you to this day. I guess the reason I wanted you to claim ownership so badly was probably because of the way you handled the Immortals admin attack, and how you actually gave me a chance to prove myself in RAT. I remember the day you came up to me in the middle of a Gladiator Match to get into Immortals, as you stated “Shiny, would you like to help manage Immortals with me?” <3. Anyways, as you can see I have made my way up to the Overseer position in immortals, and it’s all thanks to you. The reason I thought you would make a good leader is because you give everyone a chance, no matter their rank. You truly are unique in that aspect.

You’re a great leader that is trying his best to fix this clan and make it what it was 2 years ago, and I applaud you for that. Everyone seems to think that it’s your fault that RAT is failing, but believe me, it’s not. Love is a powerful thing that is very hard to take control of in life, and quite too often it can blind us and render us incapable of reaching our goals. I know your goal is to fix RAT for the better, however you seriously need to make a choice here. You’re either going to have to dump Nuke for a computer game (sarcasm), or quit this game and spend the rest of your life with him. Quite frankly I as well as many other people see it; Nuke is only with you for the rank. Prove us all wrong. Do what *you* think is best, and don’t let anyone tell you what to do. You’re smart enough to do this, cj.

nukeysaurusrex/Nuke009: Where do I begin… Well, for starters, I remember the day cj came to me and Moolego about the decision of making you an Admiral in RAT. At first I thought cj has finally lost it. I looked over to Moolego, knowing he’d vote “no” to making you an Admiral. I was actually quite shocked to hear that both Moo and Mike had agreed due to cj giving them “excellent reasons”. I said no to it, yet you were promoted anyways. I guess you’re good at getting your way, eh?. I also remember when you talked cj into demoting both me and Mike, and promoting you as the sole Great Admiral in RAT during the project that would save us all, Project Connection (sarcasm)!!!

My main message to you is simple; stop telling cj how to run the clan, because obviously it’s not working at all. As soon as he does something you haven’t ‘approved’ of him doing, you get all mad on the Inperium, threatening your relationship with cj, and moments later you beg for forgiveness just to get your precious rank back. This is the most pathetic thing I’ve ever seen on Roblox, and I’m saddened to see that it escalated so badly beyond my or anyone else’s control. You’re the only thing in cj’s life besides this game that makes him happy. Don’t ruin it simply because you don’t get what you want. Often in life we don’t get what we want, yet we manage to move on. Learn this vital lesson, and I hope for the best for you and cj.

Mike82098: You remain really neutral on most subjects, which is why I hesitated to even call you my superior when I was a lower rank. You’d always go with the flow and never made any decisions that benefited the clan. You proved me wrong however when we decided to confront cj, and I finally got to see a side of you in which most people never saw. You truly do care for RAT, and if you weren’t so inactive or soon to be retiring I’d strongly urge you take leadership of RAT, that is, considering Nuke is out of the picture.

Fabiao: I felt that you and I never really had a strong relationship in this clan, and I really didn’t want to work with you from the moment you were promoted due to the fact you had said earlier I make a crap Great Admiral. I guess all I really have to say is, assuming I am as bad as you had claimed for me to be, sorry for letting you and the External Affairs Department down like this. To be honest I never really liked you and probably never will, however I do hope that you continue your marvelous work in RAT and help cj to get his priorities sorted out; something I’ve never been able to do.

Raven98: I honestly don’t see why you’re still an Admiral. LOL LEGIT XD >:3 UBER MADZ!

PointlessChris24: Overall I saw you as an inactive Admiral who never did your job, and after being threatened to be demoted several times you claimed you’d get more active, and never did. It wasn’t until I claimed leadership of RAT’s External Affairs department that I saw just how hard you worked behind the scenes in managing most if not all of our allies single-handedly. Sure you’ve called me a bad Great Admiral the day we actually started working with each other, yet that doesn’t change the fact that you’re the only Admiral really doing anything right now, and if it were up to me I’d have you replace me. That is, assuming you leave your social group behind (yea you know what I’m talking about).

GreatOculus: You’re annoying, in a good way. Let’s leave it at that. I remember when you wanted to become my Marshal, as well as all those times you continued to bug me about what you did wrong or what you needed to do in order to advance to that rank. To be honest, the reason I never promoted you was because I knew Nuke would demote you instantly, yet I never told you that. Let’s just say I wanted you to experience how corrupt he was firsthand, therefore upon promoting you I just stepped aside to let Nuke prove just how much of a nuicance he can be. Anyways, I guess you were one of my last “friends” who were still in RAT, and for that I’d like to say a formal goodbye to you now, however rest assured, I’ll be back in a marvelous way. Even though you have a LOT to learn, you’re still the only mediocre Marshal there is, and for that I applaud you.

shipnoob123/lilipad45: You guys are probably one of the greatest Marshal duos I’ve ever seen. Out of every event I’ve been to, you guys are nearly always at the same place, which I personally find to be truly remarkable. Although it is more than obvious you guys are within a small social group in RAT, you guys are still the coolest marshals in RAT atm. ily <3

Martalex10 + NintendoArtist: You guys have given me an alternative for when I leave this clan behind. I really never saw any other electronic device more fun than this, but thanks to you guys I’m able to move on from this clan and work towards gaining many more achievements. Thanks to you, I now am able to have alternate fun while rekting you on halo 4 <3

Harrods: Nice hat.

killnijas123/stix7: Almost every TDM training someone hosted, we’d always go on the same team. You guys were great comrades in which I was able to put my full trust in at all times.:

iIikeyou: I’d personally like to thank you for helping me making many events in RAT possible. Thanks to you, I have been able to make requests and have many things scripted for the price of nothing. You’re honestly the most helpful RAT member I’ve ever come across, and hopefully in the future I can make more requests…(kidding sir). With this, I’d like to say one last thing: this isn’t the end for me, in fact it’s only the beginning. And with that, let’s bake a potato!

Tenal: If you need any help with running the NFU, please contact me and I’d be happy to do so, as long as it doesn’t include me personally attacking RAT more than I am now. Oh, and: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHDs-DCI96w

SlayerJones: I know how much you hate my guts for me telling Mike not to trust you, and for that I apologize. I guess I just made an incorrect assumption that you leaked information and twisted it into your own words without actually putting in the time to research if it was true or not, and for that I am sincerely sorry. This may or may not be accepted by you, but I do know you can be the bigger person when needed. Most people see you as a troll and a “waste of life” (not my words), however I see you to be someone who works towards getting what is best for others, not just himself. You are one of the most selfless people I’ve ever had the honour in meeting, and for that I truly am proud of what you’ve become. You’re a true hero.

BlackHawk100: I know you’re constantly saying it’s your fault that RAT is like this and the reason why cj barely trusts me, however believe me it’s not. It was my decision to confront cj about his leadership incapabilities, you didn’t force me into anything. All in all, you were a great Marshal and still are a great friend. I really do like our talks and how we are able to always reach a certain point in which both of our ideas collide, something I wish I could have been able to do at all of those redundant Inperium meetings.

Project Immortalis: Thank you guys so much for helping me create a new Immortals Gladiator Arena (Now known as Nebula Matches) within RAT. I honestly could not have provided such a creatively built map as you guys. You all rock. Special shoutout in the team to PositivelyEpic, GreatOculus, and scaredhobo.

Inperium Members: If you guys honestly believe that those meaningless meetings are helping RAT improve, you’re 99.69% wrong. All that happens is people talk about things in which they believe should help the clan benefit, and quite frankly we’re still where we were 6 months ago. You guys need to focus less on spouting off unrealistic ideas and start focusing on actually enforcing these ideas and implementing them into RAT. I’ve seen many great ideas, and would love to actually see people get off their butt and actually do something in terms of implementing the idea. imo you guys need to have a less flawed system in hosting meetings, because right now you’re failing horribly.

All Justicars: No matter how many times the highranks tell you how bad you are at hosting events and trainings (which you are), you need to realize that this isn’t your fault at all. I’m quite shocked and disappointed that the highranks took the approach that they did in terms of outright telling you how “bad” you are. What they neglected to tell you was that it’s their own fault for just promoting you without actually teaching you anything there is to know about being the next highcommand member. If anything it’s their faults that the clan’s training system is so bad, not you. Do not lose hope.

Some people that have stood out in my clan career:;
-Pikaste
-DreamLoss (CODE NAME: D13)
-pepi12
-Fruitbox
-CUBES4LIFE
-Shedletsky
-Darkvboiz12
-kali12321
-ruraltechdeck101
-unbearablepain
-folowerofzaros
-supersmartboy
-LordVledak
-charmander2000
-Other people that I’m forgetting; sorry.

Conclusion; I’ll be joining RAT once again upon the 8th Generation release, and hopefully I’ll be able to find an internal solution to RAT’s problems simply by experiencing the clan from a Lower rank’s perspective. If Cj is willing to have me back any time before then, I’d be happy to do so, that is, as long as he’s willing to work towards the changes necessary. For now anyways, I plan on starting a clan and sooner or later leave this game altogether if RAT doesn’t get any better for me to fall back on, assuming I don’t find another clan I wish to partake my time in. If anyone wants to help me with leading this clan, please don’t hesitate to PM me.

And with that, I’d like to say goodbye to everyone in RAT. You truly made this game enjoyable for me, and I’ll have a hard time clicking the “Leave Group” button.

Sincerely;

Ex-Great Admiral Sparrow Overseer Immortals Overseer shinypikachu1234

Well, Shiny.

You'll be missed, by others, but by me too.

When I was exiled, you extended your hand to someone who didn't seem who earned their position. Because of you, I was able to regain my position as Admiral and continue to work on our allies (which I do to this very day).

See ya another time, shiny.
