[Story/Personal History]

I was it going inactive just wasn't going to cut it and that I've lost interest in this site. Don't get me wrong now, I loved this game and was somewhat (quite) addicted to it as most of the players are. So here is my speel on why I've quit and my thanks to everyone:

As you can see from under my name I joined December 5th, 2009. At first it was just a fun game that I played every now and again but around, oh, February '10 I became obsessed with it. I would stay up until one most nights raiding the old RAT Rec with some friends (all of whom I've never met irl). As you can guess my grades suffered drastically. This was 8th grade, I lost computer privileges and so I did better in that last quarter of the school year.

During the summer (Early August) of '10 I joined RAT because my sister, tenniscat, convinced me to. If I remember correctly it was the first RAT v VAK war, also if I remember correctly it was tons of fun.

Around Mid-November I discovered a magical, wonderful place called the 'Forum' also known as 'Clans and Guilds'. I started out as we most of us do, making stupid comments on random threads that just got people angry at me. At this time also in RAT tenniscat became an Admiral and I became her marshal, a position I held until the first time she quit, when I then moved to 3StoneBlue's open Marshal position until the reform (But I'll talk about that bit later). This is also the time that I admitted to being a 'spy' in Splecki's RAGE (I was of the rank Admiral [3rd Highest])

From December of '10 to the Summer of '11 I just gained many good friends and became semi-known in RAT and on C&G. In the summer of '11 the RAT v UAF war went on and while others hated it I loved it, the city that they had was the best fort ever in my opinion.

In early October of '11 (Sophomore year) I wrote my first 'tactic' thread,[http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=55813459], looking back on it it is incredibly terrible but at the time I was proud of it. From then I went on to write seven other threads like that and I was working on one for Borealis but never finished.

(Bored of my history yet?)

I got Executive in Splecki's Valor Legion after re-gaining her trust (she is a great person by the way) and now that brings us to the Summer of '12

Last summer I got into Sparrow Corps and stayed as a Marshal within the reform, I have to say that it Sparrow Corps is a ton of fun and that I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also got the rank of Council in Splecki's Valor Legion during this period.

In July I created, with my former friend spon103, Blind Shot Corporation. It sold everything a group could need and it was doing fantastic until spon admin attacked it in early August.

I have quit once before, that was in September 2012. I rejoined November 3rd, 2012 and had a great time. I have been in many wonderful groups since I rejoined such as Vortex Security, Valor Legion, The Roblox Assault Team, RAGE, H.A.U, Roblox Commando Infantry, and many many others. I would go into a detailed response about them but time is limited my friends.

--------------------
[Personal Instructions for RCI]

Call this my ‘will’ so to speak.

It’s been a great time everyone. We’ve done so much as gained so much, I’ve achieved the rank of [13] General ★★★★ (Four-Star). Not many others can say the same. So here is a small list for my last wishes:

The member I want to replace me when I leave ROBLOX and RCI is [11] General ★★ (Two-Star) FerrariLambo. He is an incredibly intelligent member and is very active. I see him going places, he is your best bet DoctorCooper.

DoctorCooper, can’t really say much. You gave me a chance and I will never forget that, thank you friend.

Roxasrock, I never did like you. You are rude, disrespectful, and lie. I don’t think you’re suitable for any position of power but hey, it’s not my call. My only advice is too calm down, everything will work out in the end there is no need to be so critical all the time.

DeadlyGlance, you deserve to be a [12] General ★★★ (Three-Star) mate, you are active and have some type of reasoning skill. The best of luck to you.

Members of RCI, I wish you the best and please try to stay active and don’t give up on the group! RCI will be the next superclan, I can feel it.

--------------------
[Personal Instructions for Valor Legion Prestige]

God, I had really wished I could have brought this division back but alas it is not the job for me. It has been an honor serving as one of your Overseers. So from here I shall list what I wish to be done:

BADBOiiFADE, Get active mate! I’m counting on you to not let VL:P die like last time.

Squad Leaders, please please please get active. BAD can not revive VL:P on his own, hold trainings and try-outs. Make VL:P big in the Valor Legion Community.

VL:P Members, I’m sorry i have to leave you in this state up I’m worn out and just don’t have the time to run this anymore. Good luck and godspeed to you.

--------------------
[Thank You’s]

Oh god, where do I begin? I guess I’ll copy and paste my list from last time and then edit and add to it.

I would like to thank the following people for their support, amazingness, etc:

-Splecki: You gave me a second chance I will always be grateful, I hope Valor Legion does even better in the future

-yellowdude9209: Thanks for the position in the diplomacy dept. and being an all around good friend.

-BADBOiiFADE: You're just fun to be around, even though we'll most likely never meet irl due to timezone differences but it would be great if we could. Also thanks for teaching me how to build (sorta).

-tenniscat: Sisternoob

-fabiao14: <3. You are like a younger brother to me, stay the way you are and be yourself.

-petalbumper: hi u ok

-Scorch6429: Have a great life buddy.

-Nahte97: You.. how to describe you in a few words.... lets go with: Funny, Serious, Cool, Amazing, Awesome, and Smart. Good luck with life, VL, etc.

-grimy12: You're, in my opinion of course, the best forumer out there and just an all around cool guy.

-connorking88: Good luck with life friend and with Valor Legion.

-shortPinman: Good luck with SN and VL, you’ve been an amazing friend in the recent months.

-DoctorCooper: You gave me a chance, thank you. Good luck with RCI and life my friend.

I have so many more but once again time draws short, if you weren’t mentioned I hope you don’t take offense.

--------------------
[Why I Quit]

I’ve just been busy lately, it’s my Junior year of High School, I’m 17 years old for christ’s sake! I have swimming that fills up my time and homework to fill up the rest, leaving little to no time for ROBLOX. So to neaten this up:

School: School > Swimming > Other things > ROBLOX, I just need to focus more on it and need to rid myself of distractions.

Swimming: I need to focus on this also, I’ve qualified for 3A States in North Carolina (It’s tomorrow, woo) and USY for YMCA swimming. (swim4ymca, get it?)

Personal reasons: Won’t go into detail on these as they are none of your business.
--------------------
[Poem]

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So, boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps.
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now—
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

-Langston Hughes

[Final Goodbye and Links]

Until our paths cross again. I ‘officially’ leave on the 9th of February, 2013 (Saturday), I just wished to get this thread out tonight.

(Note to new C&Gers: It's common practice to act like someone is quitting and to say 'goodbye'.)
