I'm sure some of you saw this coming. I'm sure many of you are glad, and i'm sure that many of you are not. Either way, every story has an end. This is mine.

Seeing as the general population of C&G simply don't have the time or effort to read everything in long threads, I have provided you with a clear headings for each section.


-=[ Introduction ]=-

Although it may not seem the case, leaving VAK is one of the hardest choices that i've ever had to follow through with. Over the course of two and a half years of serving such a serious clan; you become attached to its morals, rules and make friends that you believe you can trust with almost anything.

You see people who are inspired by your work, you see people who are proud to be apart of such an active, skillful and diverse clan, and you see people who have progressed from un-skilled Robloxian, to a true warrior.

I still believe in the clan itself, and its potential, however for later explained reasons, I feel that it can still fail.


-=[ History ]=-

[You may like to refer to these albums on imgbomb (imgur gave errors): /a/519, /a/521, /a/522, /a/523, /a/524]

Back in September of 2010, I had a fairly famous game on the front page. Although compared to my current standards the game is terrible, people enjoyed it for its authentic, highly-detailed Star Wars vehicles. Around this time, a player named lil2mario got in contact with me, after playing the game himself. He joined my server of the game and began to explain a proposition. At the time, he was Vaktus' right-hand-man in VAK. He was interested in bringing me into the group to develop technology and bases for the clan. I told him that i'd think about the offer, in regards to the upkeep of my game. After a couple of weeks, the popularity of my game shrank until it was no-longer on the front page. At this point, I accepted his offer and was immediately accepted into VAK and promoted to the rank of Lieutenant.

For the next 3 months I began teaching myself how to make basic weapons (using other peoples scripts), and practiced constructing my own designs for vehicles and tech. By the time it came to January, I had put together the first version of Vaktovian weaponry. At the time, the Swampy Moon was owned by VAKWarrior (DevilishPyro's alt) and contained no teams, had gear for weapons, and was very simplistic. After speaking with Devilish about updates, he agreed to add my weaponry to the place, which shortly after began to make me recognised.

After a couple of months, Vaktus himself realised my potential, after I constructed several places, more weapons, and vehicles, as well as making update packages for the Swampy Moon, I was eventually promoted to the rank of Captain for my hard work.

Shortly after, the Swampy Moon was moved to Vaktus' account and I started working directly under Vaktus' command. Over the next few months he constructed Kaznan.

As I worked on newer, more interesting projects I became more and more dedicated to the group, until late 2011, when Vaktus took several months of leave. When this started, things started going downhill. With no Vaktus around, I had no new projects to work on, and updating the Swampy Moon was an impossibility. I therefore became inactive myself, and eventually felt close to leaving. When Vaktus returned however, I held on, and continued as previously; developing newer weapons, improving scripts, and eventually writing my own gun scripts from scratch (a great achievement of mine at the time).

This continued until around Halloween 2012, when Vaktus released the halloween update for the Swampy Moon. Shortly after, his activity reduced once more, until it was starting to become too much to put up with (At the time exploiters were unstoppable and without updates, the only way to stop them was through basic admin commands, which often failed to do the job).

December came around, and Vaktus still had not returned. I became more and more weary of what was to become of me in the group. To make matters worse, my parents had recently replaced our router with one that had higher security, and parental restrictions. The router caused Roblox to essentially cut out completely when trying to join games due to blocked packets of data (not explaining). This therefore prevented me from being active in other areas of the group. Not long before Christmas, Vaktus came back online again and released a Christmas update for the Swampy Moon. Eventually my router problem was resolved, but something had to be done about updates whilst Vaktus was offline. Therefore he came up with a solution; a shared account.

And thus the account ImperialVaktovia was created, to allow for updates to be made during Vaktus' inactivity. I was entrusted with access, as well as the Generals. After this point, updates became far less laborious due to a lack of wasted time. I was also able to make design changes and renovations to bring the Swampy Moon into the modern clan age. After this, Vaktus' activity dwindled once more, on and off for the next couple of months. Plans for SMO 2.0, and a secret project known as Project BSt were made, and development began.


-=[ Reasoning for Leaving ]=-

And so we come to the main part of this thread. As I have previously explained, every time Vaktus goes inactive, apart of me gets lost inside. A little less motivation, a little less willing. I managed to put up with it for the past couple of months whilst Vaktus has been inactive once more, but I can handle it no more. I will likely be tarnished as a traitor after saying the following, however if speaking the truth is a "traitorous act" then the accusers truely are lost. A few days ago, I was invited into a group chat with Dologan. Unaware of the reasoning, I entered to find out what was required of me. The next couple of minutes saw me have my rights of working on the SMO torn away from me, with the following from Dologan:

Supreme General D.Madrek: You see, since a month now, I placed an OO to follow your work on SMO.
Supreme General D.Madrek: You are a good scripter and all, but you lack of motivation to fix problems when it's needed.
Stroudie: Like?
Stroudie: And incase nobody has noticed here
Stroudie: I'm in the midst of my exams
Supreme General D.Madrek: Understandable, stroudie.
Supreme General D.Madrek: And I'm not raging at you.
Supreme General D.Madrek: I just wants things to be done.
Stroudie: I have stated in several places that I will be fairly inactive for the next couple of weeks
Supreme General D.Madrek: Like it should be done.
Supreme General D.Madrek: What I wanted to tell you.
Supreme General D.Madrek: Is that since like you said, you are in exam periode and all. I'm taking the commandemant of the construction/modification/planification of SMO and all it's updates.
Supreme General D.Madrek: Vaktus will inform you of your new work for the new weaponary.
Supreme General D.Madrek: I changed the pw of IV, and for now, Only Generals will have access to the accounts. If you wants to do updates at SMO, you'll need to have our approbation and you'll work via extern files.

After this, I was lectured by a General who does not build, nor script, about what makes the SMO laggy, and how he knows it all. The next day I was informed about several Generals (Dologan, Gh, Bektor and Pro) creating an officers meeting behind my back, conspiring to seize development of the Swampy Moon and have things their way. If they were merely taking over development from me whilst my exams were ocurring, then why would there be a need to change the pw for Imperial? And couldn't I just be asked nicely to inform them of changes made, rather than having a supposed "spy" following my edits?

Obviously this had been planned for some time, as HUGE updates to the SMO were made shortly after, which must have been planned a fair while in advance. Changes of both mine and Vaktus have been reversed and undone, leaving the map looking bland, taking out a significant area for the raiders (the raiders base, designed to spread out Vaktovians so that a single raiders spawn is not spawn-camped) and removing single parts from areas, in an attempt to "reduce lag".

From this, I have seen that I am no longer working alongside allies. I am instead working with people who merely want a piece of the pie. For that reason, I am leaving VAK.


-=[ Where Will I Go Next? ]=-

Unlike most people who leave VAK, I do not propose to join another war clan. I instead will be working on personal projects, perhaps maybe something as a submission for EBR (as my detail on assets has been hindered whilst in VAK).


-=[ Recommendations ]=-

As it is custom to do so, I wish to mention a few names of people that deserve promotions:

. Domeboybeene - An active, skillful, artistic soldier, impressive in combat, building and artwork
. Look01 - Another active Lieutenant, who excells in combat and training soldiers


-=[ Special Thanks ]=-

There are far too many people from over the years for me to possibly remember all of. Chances are though, if you're reading this far, you're one of them.


-=[ To VAK As A Whole ]=-

This group is still amongst the great clans of Roblox. Although we have been faced with dark times, we have always prevailed. I wish all members of the VAC and VAK good luck.


-=[ Personal Note ]=-

For if Vaktus gets around to reading this; I would like to thank you for offering me so much within this clan. Although we have had our difficulties, you have been one great leader, no-matter our arguments, I still respect you. My one complaint is your lack of activity. Chances are, I would feel less inclined to leave if you were more active. Seeing as it is not under your control however, it is understandable.

So bloody Liam, who comes on once a month, posts a few things on the wall and then buggers off again keeps his access, whereas you get it taken off you after two years of making tech for the group? I'm done, man, I'm not coming back.
