My Retirement by _Gill January 16, 2015 at 3:01 AM UTC

Hello to the community, its Max
      I am making this post as my last one as an Administrator on the server. I have been with this server for something like 4 years: through Terrascape, MC Zone, and finally, Avicus. Let me tell you, this server has been a major part of my life in total, and its going to be hard to let it go. Its been a pleasure, and I can't wait to watch (from a distance), and see this server grow larger and larger (it'll happen). 
      I am retiring for a good reason (in my opinion), I have not been online enough to be an Administrator on the server, and I have not been being active in the community, or on the server in general. At one point, I could play for 2 hours a day, every day. Now though, school and life are taking a toll on my available time, and I will soon not be even to play. I am not leaving because this server is "boring" or "less good," I am purely leaving for personal reasons, and I most likely will be playing a bit in the near future, and helping out the staff team whenever I can. I would like to point to FTW's reason for retiring. He had a noble reason for quitting, and I completely support it. Life isn't made for living inside on a computer, its about going out, being social, and making friends whenever possible. I respect you if you like the computer, but this is just my view on the subject.
      For my replacement, I have chosen Jake/Aversively. He has been a staff member for as long as I can remember, and he is the one I believe will most suitably fill my role. He will be a better community Administrator than me, and I have complete faith in him.
       I don't want to thank people by their names, because I know Id forget a few people, and I don't want to do that. I want to thank the staff, for always helping the community. I would like to thank all of you, the players, for making this server great, and for making this job worthwhile, and I would like to thank Ivy overall; without him, the server wouldn't exist, I wouldn't have made so many friends, and I wouldn't have met any of you.
Thank you for all of the great times, this won't be the last time you see me (hopefully),
Max Gillette

Goodbye gilletteracer74. 

I can't really think of anything to say but good luck.

badgg January 16, 2015 at 3:01 AM UTC

Gill, when I heard the news you were planning to retire I couldn't believe it. You have been an inspiration of mine. Your wise decision making just encouraged me to do more as a Moderator. 

I will contact you on Skype with more personal goodbye. 
Thanks for everything!

GrapeSmoothie January 16, 2015 at 3:01 AM UTC

Words can not even describe how sad I am to see you leave. I've known you for the longest time now Max. You were so nice to me the first time I met you, and you've had a great influence on me. You're a great friend, you were a great administrator, and it will be so tough to see you leave. You are such a genuinely nice person and I don't see that in many people. Good luck in life bro. <3

aslan73 January 16, 2015 at 4:01 AM UTC

Unfortunately, I didn't really get to know you well. But in the time I've been here at Avicus, I've noticed the amount of respect people give you. You must be a really great guy, it's unfortunate we didn't get to meet each other. Peace, and thanks for everything you've done for Avicus. :)

Lucifist January 16, 2015 at 4:01 AM UTC

P.S. For everyone saying Gill's leaving he's not, he's retiring and retiring only.

MajestysDream January 16, 2015 at 4:01 AM UTC

It's very, very sad to see you leave, Gill. Thank you so much for being a fantastic Administrator. You played a huge role in the growth and success of Avicus. Thank you, and good luck in life.

PictureFrames January 16, 2015 at 4:01 AM UTC

It's been a long time coming, Gill, and I've never had one day I didn't enjoy working alongside you. Ever since I became Junior Mod up until now, every day's been enjoyable for me. And I thank you, for everything you've devoted to this server. Words can't describe how thrilled I am to know that you entrusted me with this huge responsibility, as well. Thank you, and good luck in life! Just remember, you're a living legend, Max. <3

Best regards, -Jake

avicus is awesome, the greats leave, but are replaced with new people that are awesome, then they leave, and the cycle continues. Avicus has generations, and thats whats awesome about it

TortouseMincer January 16, 2015 at 6:01 PM UTC

<3 Gill...
You made my brief active stay on Avicus the best it could be; you helped me and stayed mature during very unique circumstances.
I'll never forget my heart-rate during the interview; and I began speaking in my timid little voice.

You're truly a great guy and I wish you luck in life.

P.S. pfffffff, leaving like that? Where's Funky's infraction? ;-)

Ogrey January 16, 2015 at 7:01 PM UTC

Gl in life m8, it's been good.

Bye Gill, had good times with you.

FightToWin7431 January 19, 2015 at 8:01 PM UTC

What can I say? Gill, you are a freaking legend. You're one of the few people I've known since I joined 2 years ago, and every time i have got to work with you it has been an absolute pleasure. I want to thank you for everything you have done for me, for this server and this community, and I wish you all the very best in life. You were amazing. Farewell :)

tel6331 January 19, 2015 at 8:01 PM UTC

Gill I remember you as one of the Original McZone staff members when i joined over a year ago. I remember you being the admin alongside Blackhawk. Although we barely see each other because of timezones I have to say that it has been a pleasure working with you and when we were on at the same time we had some very good laughs!! Farewell chap! The original staff from McZone are slowly becoming less and less.... :(

_Gill January 20, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC

Thank you everyone. You don't know how much I appreciate it.
<3

Porkyyy January 20, 2015 at 2:01 AM UTC
