Resignation
Posted June 12th, 2009 at 7:00 AM by bgt
Well guys, its been fun. But I think my time has come. I'll still probably be around. Might get into competitive battling and trading more. For the most part I'm just going to stick around my old group for now. More than likely it's going into full effect at 9PM. Gotta enjoy my last day, XD
[b]Abercrombie:[/b] Nick, I've barely gotten to know you. Always sending me those random cheerful IMs. Hope you get your iPhone man, ;3. Keep doing what you do.
[b]Aegis: [/b]Jeef. Remember when we were going to go to AN '08? Oh well, XD. Your randomness inspires me to no bounds. Still wouldn't mind going to AN '10.
[b]Alter Ego: [/b] I actually don't know you that well, but as a fellow touhou fan, keep rocking out.
[b]Amachi:[/b] Ray, one of my favorite aussies. I don't know what to say really, just that I hope to see you as an Smod soon. It's been long enough.
[b]Anti: [/b] The awesome Shoddy Battler. Hey, I need you to train me up on competitive battling one day, kay?
[b]Ausaudriel: [/b] Wow, I don't know what to say Shawn/Aidan. Kinda silly you fed us that fake name for a while but oh well. At one point in our friendship I suppose, I probably talked to you more than everyone else combined, online and off. Oh well, we grew apart somewhere. Probably around when you started reading that Harry Potter Slash, XD. Still, wouldn't mind rocking out the WoW sometime man.
[b]bobandbill:[/b] I don't have a lot to say since your a new member and we haven't talked at all but, what I do have to say is. I hope I get to meet your better half one day, i.e. Bill, XD
[b]Chibi-chan:[/b] Maker of my 3 themes and always an awesome profile maker. You'll always be my favorite loli.
[b]Color Me Evil: [/b] I want to be colored evil alright. You've made me laugh plenty of times and it's pretty priceless.
[b]Dark_Azelf:[/b] Twas a blast running Shoddy with you. Well, I'll still run it with you, XD. Might get into serious competitive battling soon so I might need you to show me the ropes, ;3
[b]digi-kun:[/b] Why so anti-social? Maybe we could have paired up or something. Wouldn't that have been grand, ;3
[b]Drew: [/b] Why can I never guess your gender correctly? Oh well, you change your themes more than Andy changes his underwear
[b]Francheschi: [/b] We never talked but I sure do love the name Fi, XD
[b]Glaceon_: [/b] One of my favorite pokes, baby.
[b]Karen Smith: [/b] Still my favorite Mean Girl, ;3
[b]Lightning: [/b] You struck over Toronto, there's not much more to say. Wouldn't mind rocking AN 10 out with you, without a doubt.
[b]Signomi: [/b] My favorite brit chick hands down. I'm planning on visiting the UK next year. Maybe we can have some tea together, ;3
[b]Unown_:[/b] Uh yea, your unown, XD
[b]Zet: [/b] Oooh, tons of stuff to say. Your so random at times and make me laugh. Before you were even modded, I was rooting for you. ;3
[b]PPN:[/b] Good ol PPN, the man I've known for 7 years. First encountered you in #pokemon_encodes with the rat, XD. Good times
[b]Morkula:[/b] Your still the most intimidating. I still remember questioning myself what I would even say if you went to AN 08 or how to even approach you. You were like my worst nightmare. XD
[b]Sana:[/b] Good ol' Sammie. I'd love to have a sammich made by you any day of the week, XD.
[b]Sylphiel:[/b] My first PC love. I remember planning to make continuous jokes about your pants at AN. Too bad it didn't work out. On a more serious note, Jess, I really hope you will get a better job. You've been working there too long for your own good. You have to put your foot down sometime. Also, if anything ever happens with your relationship, remember I'll still be there for your couch. Even in 30 years.
[b]Arcanine:[/b] Wow, I remember you hating my guts forever. You took the longest to even get to a neutral state. But hey, can I blame you, XD. We can pick up a few chicks and make the most awesome Yoko cosplay/orgy ever if you want, ;3
[b]BlackRockShooter:[/b] David, wow, we haven't talked for probably almost 2 years. I have to hand it to you. You are the man that got me back on staff, even if the demotion was uncalled for, I highly appretitate it and never got to tell you personally. Without you, I wouldn't have gotten to meet all the awesome people I encountered. Kudos.
[b]Jake:[/b] Good ol Jake, XD. Actually, we haven't talked a lot lately however I do say your themes are smexy none the less.
[b]mewthree w/ armor:[/b] The most hated person probably in existence on PC staff. But you know what man, I don't have anything against you. So even if theres 50 people who want to beat you down, I got your back. So if you wanna rock out at a convention next year or something, hit me up man.
[b]BeachGirl:[/b] [s]How I long for your body[/s]. Good ol Ryan, we haven't talked a whole lot but your still one of my favorite SMods ever, ;3
[b]Matt:[/b] Matt da Hat. Awesome themes. We sorta never talked after I spammed #pie like 3 years ago, XD. Oh well, ;/. Well anyways, I'm sorry both for the fact I did it and that I never got to tell you before. I actually didn't even remember about it until Audy brought it up a while ago.
[b]Loki:[/b] All I have to say is, David is lucky to be paired with you, ;33
[b]Went:[/b] My favorite Spanish Man. Probably the person who got me mass joined into Aizuke/Nica chats all the time. I still got my laughs none the less, XD.
[i]The day a lot of people probably have been waiting for. Everyone says were top-heavy admin wise and I can understand that. But, its not exactly like were getting paid salaries so it really doesn't matter how much staff we have. But besides the point, not trying to make any type of argument. I can fully understand the point.
There's a couple of reasons I'm submitting my resignation. Some won't be stated while others will. One primary reason is I'd really like to see is for someone else to enjoy the position for a while. I've had my fun and enjoyed it to no ends. And I know there's not a big difference between AA & SA. But still, I'd really love to see Cowrie promoted. I think it'd probably mean a lot to her. It's just a forum anyways, what can it hurt. What will it matter in ten years anyways, XD.
Another reason is that PC just hasn't been doing it for me. I just don't feel that spark. It's sorta like a bad marriage when your dragging yourself home each day. I just figured I better man up and finish the divorce. I figured I'd give it some time, but I don't think its going anywhere.
The third and last stated reason is. I grew up personally from gen I and have almost been in the fandom for 10 years. It's something thats almost been in my life for half the time. A lot of the younger fans jumped in around Gen III/IV and I don't know, it just seems the younger fanbase just annoys me. Especially SPPf, without a doubt. But anyways, I'm going to probably quit most of the fandom and just stay in my old group.
I really understand the sentiment of some of the h-staff who believe it was a rip for Community Site webmasters to receive Adminship when they had to put in 2-3 years for the same recognition. Being someone who also grew up in a group, and has put comparable or more time into a community as our SAs; I know what its like to get promoted and grow close to staff and friends. It's something I never got to experience here due to being thrown right into the mix. And I didn't think it was right myself to be instantly given an admin position but at the time it was one of my goals and the fastest path to obtaining it.
Anyways, its already a tl;dr. I hope to see you guys on the flip side. For the past 5 years I haven't really been a fan. Mostly been writing content or creating media. I just want the chance to go back to being a fan. Enjoying the games and not having to play them to write a walkthrough. Or watching the anime without having to compile data on the episode.
As for the Shoddy Server, I'll still run it if you guys want. However, keep in mind of the scheduled outage from 6/18-6/30. 6/30 is the worst case scenario. [/i]

[b]wakachamo[/b]: If I lived in Portugal, you'd so be my brother.
[b]Nica[/b]: Gurl, your like PC's resident post "HORse". You know your still one of my favorite aus members, XD. Your always so freaking random, ;d. I suppose the man you meet one day will be amused every day till no end. I need to find me a Nica in an american version, lolol.
[b]Malyka[/b]: I'd like some rice please. Aren't you asians supposed to be gewd at that or something? [/stereotype]
[b]Bliss[/b]: Sorry we were only paired for 3 weeks. I didn't get to tell you I wanted to name our daughters Fiona, Chloe, and BeachGirl.
[b]Michii[/b]: Thanks for the theme babe. Made my day
[b]Goodies[/b] I always think of you having some present taped to your crotch with your pair and your like. Open up and get my goodies. *hides*
[b]Cherii[/b] I should bake a cherry pie in honor of you. Speaking of which, I haven't had any cherry pie for like 3 years.
[b]Virtual Chatot[/b] Hey, you used to like hate me back in the day, XD.
[b]Santaria[/b] You can dance dance on my revolution any day of the week.
[b]Other peoples[/b] Doesn't mean I forgot you, XD. Well, actually, technically I did forget you because I didn't include you at the time of writing this. I live in Kentucky so if anyone is ever in my area and wants to rock out, I'm down with it. But, I still have much love for you guys, even if I didn't include you, ;3.

Cat in the Hat... ;;
The Admin with the best name.. Is leaving. ;;
I personally hate your decision, you were a good admin and you did your job, and I wanna thank you for helping me out this week... But who will be here to bail me out for my next fiasco... ;;
Anyway your a awesome person and I loved your wacky videos, may you have best of luck in what ever faith will cast upon you.... :D
But anyway, you got a girl pregnant didn't you, is that why your leaving?
I hate how your leaving just when I was getting to know you, you actually bothered to reply to me....
Anyway.
Your friend, Angela.Posted June 12th, 2009 at 6:14 PM by Angela

There once was a Cat in the Hat
Who had his own red Cat
The red cat coughed up blue
Though bgt is still coo'
And he... killed this rhyme with... a splat! :'D
? XDD; You're awesome, bgt. Amazingly freakishly awesome. And I really respect how mature you are in this decision. ^^
Michii: Thanks for the theme babe. Made my day
