Cryptonus Resignation

[Above the Law]

Many of you may have noticed that I haven't been very active lately, and I apologize for that. Writing this post is not easy for me, but I know it's necessary. I would hate to make a friend remove or demote me. Over the past two years, I have had so much fun in this community and have met so many people that I can now call my best friends. It may sound corny, but I feel like I have grown and changed as a person because of this server. I have learned skills here that I likely wouldn't have learned anywhere else. Here is a quick run down of my time on the server.

In my second week of playing, I was lucky enough to make my first friend on the server, Matt2. He was an incredible guy who always treated others with kindness, which made it easy to be around him. After spending some time together in D-Block, I decided to join Security. However, I soon realized that Gensec was not my cup of tea and quickly went back to playing D-Class. It was then that I met Earl, a Research member who took me for my first test on the server. I accompanied him to 096, where he helped me create a paper mache copy of its face. To my surprise, I managed to survive the test, and Earl brought me back to D-Block. This experience is what ignited my passion for Research, and I am grateful to Earl for introducing me to it. Thanks to him, I am able to sit here and write this announcement today

After that test, I went and got trained by Earl for the branch. I still remember my first test… I cut off a D-Class' arms to see if he would die from picking up too much candy. (He did die.) Research at the time was perfect. I enjoyed getting feedback from all the command that were active at that time. I loved the map and I loved the community that I was surrounded by.

Joining RFA for the first time was a dream come true for me, as I was thrilled to be a part of it. Later on, I was promoted to Deputy Head of RAU, but I soon realized it wasn't the right fit for me. Fortunately, I was able to move over to RFA OA3, and that made me incredibly happy. After Billy Bob's resignation, the Sub Branch was left in an awkward position, but I made a promise to myself to do my best to improve it. I worked hard towards this goal, and I believe that I brought about some positive changes, although some may have been for the worse.

I vividly remember the day I was promoted to DHOR; it was the culmination of all the hard work I had put in, and I was overjoyed. The experience of being part of the HCMD was simply amazing, and I enjoyed every moment of it. However, it was heartbreaking to see my friends resign, especially those who had helped me to reach the position of DHOR. Nevertheless, I am grateful for having grown up in the Research branch. It has been a remarkable experience, and I will always cherish the memories. Sadly, my days of being a minging and mic spamming as a D-Class have come to an end.

It really hurts to see the server die off; it really has been fun.
 

I'm a lamb if you love me, but a lion if you poke
And if we're gonna be laughin' I would like to be in on the joke
Sometimes I think you show me scabs just to tempt me to tear 'em away
Makin' me draw blood, will never make me want to stay

Oh, it's sad but true, love is never enough
And after just a few months we are not immune
Oh, we used to stay up late starin' in each other's eyes
Now I'm wakin' early to call you up and apologize

I'm a turtle in the woods stickin' to my path
You're like a monkey in the trees jumpin' from branch to branch
I love the way you move, I love the way you Rock n' Roll
But high jumpin' for a turtle is bound to take it's toll

Oh, it's sad but true, love is never enough
And after just a few months we are not immune
Oh, we used to stay up late starin' in each other's eyes
Now I'm wakin' early to call you up and apologize

And oh oh, it's a cold hard fact
We've served some colorful vocabulary, baby, that we can't take back
And oh oh, we used to hold each other tight under the sparkling trees
And oh oh, now you're beggin' for me back on your scraped up knees
And oh, oh, we used to spend all night starin' in each other's eyes
Now I'm wakin' early to call you up and apologize

"People who lie to spare your feelings are just as untrustworthy as those who betray you with their actions"

Might not always be "nice", but always kind.

Take care!
