Be Right Back, Uninstalling

Misanthrope that I am, I hate writing posts that are even semi-sincere.

That said...I'd like to thank everyone in this community for making what it is. I'd like to thank all the people who have helped pay for servers, and the people who have hosted servers on their own boxes, and all the server and forum admins. But I'd especially like to thank Caff.

BRB, Uninstalling has existed for ~15 months.

During that time he has:

Paid for and administrated servers. Yeah, he spends real money so other people can have a cool place to play. It's a hell of a lot cheaper and easier to play on someone else's server. Also, most servers either have no admin presence (ours does) or have nazi admins (ours doesn't).

Started and maintained community events. Running an event and keeping it interesting every week isn't easy.

Created awesome maps.  It takes a long fucking time even to make a shitty map. I know.

Knows technical servery stuff. Technical servery stuff is scaaaary.

And dealt with drama like a mature human being. On the fucking internet! Who acts like an adult on the internet?

Other stuff I have forgotten/don't know about. It exists, I'm sure.


Short version: he's cool, and, to be quite serious, this community wouldn't exist without him. It's easy to forget how special this place is. Most gaming communities are kinda lame, to be honest.


Also, he's hot.

Yeah, I'm new here and he seems like a pretty cool guy.

How does he pay for the server, anyway? Just out of pocket? (I know the Dtoid contest paid server rent for a year or something, right?)

to CAFF, for putting up with us since we were planetside nublets

and now im a little bit less bad maybe.

He was the man who brought us all together every week.  Gave us a name.  Made us a community.

Cheers!

To SCOTTY

for putting up with the dick jokes and poop.

And hates my accent <3

If you think about it, it's pretty incredible he was able to start this.  It started with just wanting a group of people to play game and have fun no bullshit and now we got how many members?

Here here, to the men that helped me love PC gayming

To the person who didn't ban me, even though I mic spammed too much!

(which may be all the admins, ironically)

I have three things to contribute.

1)




  Fyre, the brunette, gets read to give his thanks to Caff.



2) If you think Caff is nice, you obviously haven't played planetside with him. He's fucking merciless.


3) Seriously, he deserves the thanks.

4) In a month, don't forget about scotty keeping the forums up and deleting porn/warez for the last year.

ILU Caff!

And Kor, for seducing many us into joining with his sexy voice.

nd

Much <3 back, but don't forget Kor and Vandam, who both pitched in at the start with me for a years worth of a TF2 server

Scotty for hosting forums, stats, and enduring my constant harassment about crashing stuff 

IdiotWithGuns for the ModBox

FlyingMongoose for helping me with map and plugin development, as well as putting up with my shit

Ain for website development and server #3

Duck for #2

Everyone who admins or creates community stuff (videos, ect)

Anyone who puts up with my shit in planetside


And lastly, all of you, for sticking around, communities are only as good as the people that stick around them

here's to me for an unsuccessful vent!

Shit forgot about that, +1

I love you all  There, can't have forgotten anybody with that kind of insincere blanket statement  :-*
JK, I seriously love pretty much everyone who goes on IRC  ;D If you don't go on IRC, you now know why I don't love you.
