A parting gift to TF2 leadership

RESPAWN

EGO Is My Life!
=(eGO)=
By now, the sharp eyed among you may have noticed that I'm wearing a different division tag. I have made the very difficult decision to transfer to the EVE division.

For those of you whose acquaintance I haven't had the pleasure of making, I offer a little bit about myself: I joined eGO in February of 2008. I had given up online game for a few years due to simply being fed up by the number of jerks typically found in online games. But, being a heavy TFC addict back in the early 2000's, I couldn't resist the opportunity to play TF2. So, I built a new machine, began playing, and stumbled on eGO's servers simply because they had a good ping to me. Imagine my delight, once I started playing here, to find a group of servers that didn't put up with the usual BS found on most gaming servers. So, after some repeated encouragement from a member, I joined up. Since that time, TF2 has been my home away from home. Or perhaps, that should be my home while I'm at home...

In the past 2+ years, I've been heavily active in the community, first as an admin trainer, then as an advisor, and now for the past year as a Division Leader. I'd like to think that I may have had a bit of a hand in shaping TF2 into the division that it is today. I'll let you guys decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing. ;)

However, for the past couple of months, I've slowly come to the decision that I'm ready for new challenges. So, I've decided to move over to the other eGO division that I frequent: EVE Online. It's a newer division that's still growing, and that presents it's own challenges and it's own level of excitement for me. I still plan to play TF2, but I am releasing my hold on the reigns of leadership for the division, and leaving that task in the more than capable hands of TF2's current leadership.



Speaking of whom, I'd like to leave my former fellow TF2 leaders with a bit of a gift: the gift of being hunted like wild animals. I currently have $357,751 casino cash in my wallet. And I have no plans to use it myself. Instead, I'd like to give it to you guys. Well, not just give it, per se. You'll have to work for it. Dominate a TF2 adivsor, and I'll pay you $10,000. Dominate trykael or ScrappyDoo, and I'll pay you $20,000. Dominate A Nurse From Texas, and I'll pay you $50,000. And I'll keep paying out bounties until my wallet is empty. Simply post the screen shot in this thread, and I'll pay up as soon as I see it.

Since I'm no longer around to make them miserable, I'm going to rely on the rest of you to do it for me. :)

Oh yeah, and so long TF2. I'm not leaving eGO, just transferring divisions so it's not really a "good bye" so much as a "see you around"! To all my friends in TF2, I'll miss you guys. I truly will. I guess I'll still have to jump in and play from time to time to visit all of you.

Take care and happy hunting!

:crying:

Thank you very much for all of your leadership in shaping the TF2 Division into what it is today. If it wasn't for you and ScrappyDoo, I think the division could've crumbled under the previous *ahem* "Leadership." :eek:

I have found you to be a great mentor to those of us in TF2, and have come to regard you as a friend. I wish you the best in building the EVE Division into what has been done with the other divisions under eGO's umbrella.

I'll see you around, I'm certain.

:thumbup1:
(have I beat Kevimaster's smiley-count yet?)
 
For those few months I was in the TF2 division, I think me and you talked every day. I really do need to hit up IRC more.
 
Bye RESPAWN :cry: we'll miss you!

Best of luck to you!

Just out of a curiosity, are you keeping your rank of DL? Or are you changing ranks?
 
I've been playing tf2 with eGO for over 2 years and the first time I saw you in-game was at WARPATH last Friday. That is, unless I don't remember 2 years ago, servers were different and always changing and there was a time where I stopped playing for a couple months..

Anyways, have fun playing EVE.

This makes my heart sad... :-(

You're forcing me to get to know the other members of leadership now... Oh well Best of luck!
 
Geez. I don't want to make people sad. :p I'll still be in eGO and I'll still be a DL, just for a different division. I'll still pop in from time to time and engage RESPAWN mode on the servers. :biggrin:
 
Looks like EVE takes another victim. I know that if i had the money to play EVE, Id probably go to that division too. Very fun game, I dont blame RESPAWN one bit for changing lol. Good luck and see you around sometime
 
We'll miss you Respawn! And I'll wait until Nurse shows up on a server so I can collect on that monies.

*cries for the rest of his life because RESPAWN is no longer his leader*


We will miss you!
