My Retirement. by Porkyyy August 5, 2015 at 10:08 PM UTC

Hey everyone, as some of you have already noticed and asked me about, I have decided to permanently retire from the staff team.
There are multiple reasons for this, and I won't explain them all, but for the most part it's because school is starting, and because of some issues in the staff team which I won't mention.
It's been an amazing 7 months being able to serve as a staff member and work alongside some really great people. This community is one of the best I've been a part of, and I'm glad to have met you all :)

Anyways, I'm not leaving Avicus at all. I'll still be active on TS, the forums, and ingame, but I just won't be a staff member.
Before I end this post I want to list a few people who I want to thank.

Zaccc - Zac you are probably one of the most hilarious people on TS that I usually talk to. Yeah, your sense of humour may "offend" some people sometimes, but I thought it was rather funny and for that I like you ;D. Also, you're a really annoying guy when it comes to playing my youtube videos on tinychat, but it was really funny when you did to be honest xD

GalaxyBrit - You were probably the most helpful staff members (to me) in my opinion. We both got Mod together, and Senior Mod together. I felt that I could really trust you with anything, and I really enjoyed talking to you ingame. I'm thanking you since you were a really good friend to me, and because you would always listen to me if I wanted to talk about something :3

GrapeSmootie / Greg - Greg, you're a really great guy in general. I had a great time talking to you on TS pretty much every day, and tinychat as well. All the screenshots you took of my butt whenever I stood up were.... interesting, especially the one where you edited a pigtail on it.. Anyways, thanks for being a great pal greg <3

_Cyanide - I could honestly write paragraphs about you Cyanide, but I'll keep it short. Cyanide, you honestly feel like a brother to me. I feel like I can talk to you about absolutely anything without being judged, and without me thinking that you're going to tell other people. You're trustworthy, hilarious, and a really amazing guy. You should keep up the great work as a Moderator, because you're doing a great job so far. You started out pretty rusty as a Mod, but I can definitely see the improvement. Stay cool Cyanide x)

RefuseToSink - You're always patient with me, and always seem to want to help with whatever problems I was having. I want to thank you for being a really great friend to me, and a fun person to talk to. I always enjoyed talking to you on TS and on Skype since you can be pretty hilarious :D. Tinychat was always fun, as was Cards Against Humanity, although you always somehow managed to beat me.. Anyways, thanks for being a great staff member, and an ever better friend :')

vladthegreat100 - There's not much to say except thanks for being a great friend, and I love the .gif you showed me on TS!

Vobaseball - Hey man, although we didn't really get to talk on TS too much, I wanted to thank you for being a really supportive guy. You always seemed to be a great confidence builder, and I really want to thank you for that. Keep up the great work as a mod :)
ColdCraft - Cold, I really like the fact that you are super supportive of my YouTube channel, and that really lifts my spirits. If I didn't have people like you watch and comment on my videos, I probably wouldn't even make them anymore. There are so many people that I could say the same thing about, but I know that you've been supportive for a really long time. Thanks for that <3

Pelp - Pel, I can't say that we've always been "really good friends", but there is something that I really respect about you. That is your dedication to the server. I know you always try your hardest to make Avicus better, and I like that about you. Keep it up pelp :3

Jozz - Jozzy, when you were Admin, it was probably my "favourite" time on Avicus. I know that some people say you were a bad Admin, but I don't see it. Let the haters hate you, and ignore them. I agree with Vlad when he says that you should somehow be involved with the staff team, since you have the experience. In addition to being just staff, I want to thank you for being a great friend to me back when you were Mod, Senior Mod, and Admin. You were probably my favourite staff member back then, and I always looked up to you whenever I needed something. Thanks for being a great role model <3

SnowSX3 - Snowy man, you're a terrific Mod. You have a ton of potential and I know that you can become a Senior Mod one day. You are always confident with your decisions, and you are dedicated to Avicus. I have a lot of respect for you dude, and I hope you can continue to impress me as a staff member ;D

Tynvale - Man, you're a great guy. You were a terrific confidence booster for me to continue my YouTube channel, and it meant a lot. Whenever you had problem, I loved taking the time to message you through Skype and talk about it. Also, you shouldn't give up on YouTube. You have a ton of potential, and I can see you getting really far. Don't worry about getting dislikes on your videos, since there will always be haters. Stay cool man <3

The staff team - It's been amazing getting to know you guys and working with you guys. We've all been through good times and bad times together, and I want to thank you all for making my experience in the staff team awesome. <3<3<3

This isn't even half of the people I want to thank, but I could go on and on with thank you's. Thanks to everyone for making me feel welcome here, and I hope that I did a good job as a staff member.

Thanks for all,
Porky.

I just wish you hadn't informed us so suddenly about this. It was like an immediate heart-stopper once I heard you were retiring. Anyways, good luck on the YouTube channel! Hopefully, I could make a contribution or two to it.

It's been a pleasure seeing your hard work and dedication to the community as a Staff Member, and you've always been a great character and friend to me since we first met, however long ago that may be.

It's been great with you here, but I understand your reasoning, as I'm sure everyone else does.

Best of luck for the future, whatever you do.
