Title: 5 years is a long time...
Post by: Leo on March 22, 2012, 09:02:05 pm
Well, some of you may have heard about my recent decision. I know it's going to be tough for a lot of you; heck, it's going to be really tough for me. You all mean so much to me and I hope that after finishing this topic, you have no doubt in your minds of that fact.

I guess I should preface this all with a description of how I got to this point. I didn't ever think I was going to arrive at this decision, but seeing VL's post the other day got me thinking. That would've been that, but then I got on IRC and my mind kept thinking about stuff until I just decided that this is what I need to do. Now some of you might think this is a joke since I'm posting it in RI as opposed to where many would have expected this thread to be, but I felt that I came here from RI and it's only appropriate that I tell you about this decision in RI.

As is customary, I felt that I should highlight some of our big dogs and tell some of y'all how thankful I am to have gotten to know you.

Delta1212: I start with you because we've been rivals for so long. It's been fun trying to take you down, though I'll admit that not tasting that sweet stench of victory has really hurt my pride over the years. Keep on keeping on and don't let anyone ever give you shit about how your pink frosting has started to fade.

ShadowSlayer: My number one, my partner in crime all this time. How you got people to think you were worthy of being Tri, I'll never know, but our pranks were amazing and no duo will ever top the chemistry we had together. Never let them keep you down and never forgot why you are who you now are.

Arsenal10: Arse, what can I say to you that hasn't already been said. You're one of my best bros here and I hope you keep rocking on for eternity like I know that only you're capable of.

Shadow: It's been a long time here, hasn't it, Shadow? You've done a good job, man, and I hope that one day, you are finally able to get your vengeance for what the SS did to you when you were at the top of your game.

im317: We had some good times, didn't we?

cctmsp13: Well, viceroy, it seems that the Great Coup never did happen. You really were the most dominating dictator I have ever met, but your economic capabilities almost make one forget about all of your human rights violations.

Ogaden: Oggy, the man I nurtured into the RIA. You were my greatest creation. Every person hopes to die knowing that they left behind a legacy, and with you as my legacy, I could not be more proud.

Shyox: You probably won't read this, but if by some coincidence you're still lurking round these parts, it was real, man.

Moth: Your pixel lust defined you nearly as much as your eternal virginity, but we love you regardless and you will never be replaced in our hearts.

Jenne: I want you to know that even though I spent lots of time chasing after women who visited the RIA, in reality, the only woman who I ever truly loved was you. Please don't shed any tears for me, though, I don't deserve your compassion after what I did to you that fateful night years ago.

Vintus: Thanks for the title, I hope you're proud of what I have accomplished under your name.

C-zom; Heh, we go a ways back, don't we? It's all good history in my book, though, and as brash and unappealing as you have always been, somehow you have never managed to do a bad job. Keep it up and never give up.

llamavore: You have become my white knight. Whenever I need a good joke or laugh, you have always provided me with a new skit to enjoy. Don't ever let them steal your llamas again.

Electric Mango: Dude, you are the most awesome ambassador I have ever met in my time here in the RIA. I only wish I could convert you from an ambassador to a member of my fair alliance.

Thunder Strike: One of my bros from down under, you help make this place what it is and what it shall always be.

Dontasemebro: I hear you have a big dick and an airplane. Keep it up and bang some chicks for me.

Flask: I wish you had never left, you were the coolest bear this side of the Rio Grande.

Apo: It was chill getting to know you. Keep up the good work and fight the good fight for all of us.

Crunka: I'm gonna miss your mom, she was the best thing this alliance ever had.

Brian: You're still a newb to me, but you're a cool newb and one who's company I enjoy.

Zeep: Keep on buying land. You're awesome and I hope one day you own the most land in all of Planet Bob.

GrilledSlug: You made for a good Leo v2.0, maybe one day you can create a Leo v3.0 for me.

Croix: Never stop being astounding.

Mogar: Keep the rest of these peeps in line for me.

Lupus: Be more active, you have tons to contribute and you're not a waste of time.

Kenny: Finally, you, Abe, Hyper, Kenny. All these boards, possible because of you. This illusion of ours, all because of you. Without you, we would still be shit. Thank you for taking us out of shit by showing us your shit. You, man, have been a treat to hang out with and I don't care what any of your alts say, you're a genuinely cool guy and I hope this alliance never loses you.

Well, to anyone else who I may have neglected, know that you were probably important to me in some way, just that my memory is weak and I unfortunately forget many of my greatest allies. And now, I guess I have said all that there is to say. My decision has been made, and I guess this is the part where I tell you all that I hope that I was able to leave a permanent mark on this alliance and in your hearts.

I'll see ya around; never forget the things that this alliance has meant to you.

I haven't heard. Don't tell me your decision so I can live in blissful ignorance. I don't want to know.

I dreaded the day I would see this. To be honest, I never expected to see it.

You are one of those defining guys here. You give us our identity.

Where are you going? Are you quitting the game or finding a different alliance?

He's quitting the game, travelling the world to spread the word of Cactuar. Power to you, man.

It's posts like this that show me that I may too someday have the strength to leave this world.  Thank you Leo for giving me hope.

In all seriousness though, good luck out there. I think it's fair to say that you have had a major impact on the RIA and we'll miss you. Make sure you still pop in from time to time.

Was a pleasure getting to know you over the last few years and it's sad to think you'll be disappearing.

Post by: Pterrydactyl on March 23, 2012, 10:02:15 pm
Leo, I honestly say that you will be greatly missed.

RIA will not be the same without you, and if there was anything that could be done to keep you here, I'm sure we would gladly do it.

You leaving, will end an age, and make the RIA more than a little bit less random.

If you ever wish to return, we shall always hold a place for you.

actually, I changed my mind.

we are going to make a Call of Yearning game and you are never going to get to play it.

when we make a million internet moneys off of it, we will throw a huge ass party with strippers. we will have things that lanna likes, whatever that is, and even a cardboard cutout of that kardashian chick for crazyman. everyone will be invited.


except you.

I have a doubt.

Leo resigned, but keeps popping in.  Like that time I faked my own death just to see who turned up at the funeral.

My God, I've been away too long and now when I come back I see this bullshit?  What the hell?  Is a life on Planet Bob without a Leo a life that is worth living?  GOD DAMMIT!  I might have to go get a retarded dog that just humps girls legs and call him Leo, just to try to fill this hole in my heart.  I will now begin my 30 days of mourning.

Well, at least now I know what I'm worth to you. Thanks, bro.

This actually was something I didn't read as soon as I woke up. Not to mention I didn't get mentioned, but no seriously. Leo, I think you and Kenny maybe the only two people I remember from ONOS times. At least that I talked to six years ago. You always reminded me of when the game was fun, and the boards were fast. Even though I'm gone, you were one of the reasons I'd come back. Good luck, shit's expensive. You seem to travel.

You don't remember Delta or Shadow or that bear that we put in the corner of the room to remind us of Flask?

How can you be sad when you remember m-oh, wow, now I'm sad, too.

Hey I have a question Leo. Are you going to check in RIA like I do? Or you leaving everything?
Title: Re: 5 years is a long time...

Does someone else want to let her in on what's going on?





No one? Okay, I'll do it just this once, but next time you guys need to cover for me.




*deep breath*


I never left, it was a joke for April Fool's and I just went inactive when SS screwed up; my nation's still there and I'm still fucking with everybody (figuratively, I think) so I never really left.

And BTW Leo did leave.  His killer has taken his avatar.  Kind of like Hannibal Lector.
