TOPIC: Letter of Resignation

Unfortunately, it has come to this. Most of you, apart from a few certain individuals who already knew my resignation was imminent, will find this quite surprising. There are multiple reasons behind this, all I'll list them here of course for those who seek answers.

Firstly, ZARP is no longer what I used to find delight and enjoyment in. When I first joined ZARP in 2017 and saw the state of the SSRP community, I was simply mesmerized - The server was like no other, it was unique, had countless custom features, was popular and had quite a friendly playerbase towards newcomers and numerous more additions. I left soon after due to IRL issues but returned in Summer 2018 whilst I had a lot of time on my hands, then, I spent a fair amount of time roleplaying as a Shop and Casino owner. Two months since my return I decided to apply for staff and acquired the Moderator position with ease, I then put my RP to an immediate halt and prioritized staffing, and that lasted up until this point, right now. I had a great time as staff too, moderating and managing multiple servers/services sure was interesting to me, especially after getting Administrator, let alone Lead Team. Handling Reports/Appeals was, to me at least, quite an amusement and pleasure. And in my last months of being a Super Administrator, and up to this point as a Head Administrator, I found designing, organizing and hosting events to be quite fun, to me as well as others, and after all, it was good for the SSRP community in general. But unfortunately, all of this has come to an end.

Secondly, most of my friends who I used to spend quality time on ZARP have left, though I don't blame them, I'm doing so myself right as we speak. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of people here who are still in the community and who are quite valued. But it's not like before, not like when I used to enjoy ZARP significantly more, not like the good old times. There are also multiple more points I have, mostly them being about how ZARP took multiple turns I didn't find quite... suitable and proper, at least from my perspective. But this doesn't play a big role in my resignation at all. I mean, after all, the community is being adjusted in a manner that the vast majority of the community likes, now that I personally find appropriate - And if that makes ZARP one step ahead of other communities, then I'm happy for it.

And lastly, work. Up until this point, I had a lot of time at disposal and used that time to do something that would keep me entertained, that being managing ZARP. But recently, Boeing offered me a better contract, and that included more work hours as well as more dedication and consistency within my sector, hence why my activity within the ZARP community would drastically decrease and I'd be taking up space/positions I'm not deserving of - This plays a big part in my resignation and it's the reasoning as to why I'm leaving.

At first, I felt slightly saddened by the fact that I'm leaving the community. It has been a great part of my life. I've been a member of the community for 3 years and to a degree a few months more - But after realizing all the astonishing and amazing stuff that awaits me when I use the free time I once used for this community, that feeling faded away. I'd like to that everyone for enhancing my experience here as well as keeping me company throughout the last year and a half of staffing, I couldn't be more grateful.

My apologies in case I forgot anyone. Anyways...

I highly doubt that my return to the ZARP community can ever be expected again, though I will come on the server as well as TeamSpeak from time to time, and will also make sure to still visit the Forums frequently. I think that's all I had to say... Farewell ZARP! :wave:

Cheers for the time and effort you've put into the community, the Community Team and I very much appreciate how much you helped out and it's sad to see you go. If you ever decide to come back, you will always be welcome!

SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT I HAVE NO ADVANCED WARNING THAT I AM NOW THE ONLY PERSON THAT XNATOR HAS TO GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ON PROP HUNT WHAT THE FUCK I AM DOOMED
On a real, you've always put in maximum effort on the surface, and behind the scenes I can only assume that translates over to SSRP and your various roles across the forums, and even though Prop Hunt now has less staff than DR what the fuck happened @Kyber save us please to be wholly honest doesn't have a lot to do in the background anymore, I've always been able to go to you for help. Thanks personally for all your help over the last 6 months, and thank you for your work in general, I can only wish you the best as you go forward in life.
And I hope I can keep Prop Hunt's incredibly stable lead team friendliness going too
See ya suit cunt

Yippee-yayyyy~ There'll be no airplane crashes for today~

Best of luck in all your future endeavours. Thanks for including me in your thank you list. You're a good lad, Richard. Have a good, prosperous life.

Wait no wtf...

Yes man join our legendary member gang
Thanks for your amazing work, that's a rip for to see you go man

Thank you for your work, luv.

Oh well,
I didn't really expect that a such dedicated and sparkling staff member would leave. You've done a lot for me and other people. Not only are you a member of the staff team, but you are quite surprising "off duty" aswell. Thank you for your time and effort on zarp, and I would like you to take care in the future and do whatever you may desire. You've shown great act and I'm sure you are a role model for someone out there. There are only matters of time before another one of the good staff members leaves us.
Good Luck, have fun.

Now, whos gonna fat finger my post
