Yep that's right! I'm about to hit 4900 hours on Garry's Mod!
Just kidding! I'm not seeking attention!
Ending it so soon, but honestly I've gotten bored, for the final time.
I think this post will wind up being pretty long as I want to explain some things that I've done and why I just don't want to be a role model on here anymore or help around keeping the server clean.
As of recent users and some staff may have noticed that I've been making some pretty stupid "mistakes" and then sort of just shrugging them off or just pretending to act like I care.
The reason I highlight the word mistake is because they're not, I've just been neglectful and just generally doing certain things without remorse, these aren't things that can be classed as severe admin abuse, the things I've done involving powers would consist of me just using no clip to get to the car dealer quicker from spawn or something a long those lines.
The things I was mostly concerned about (although using my powers to do minor things users wouldn't is something I should be) was that I was getting to the point on SSRP where I was blatantly ignoring rules such as; Raid Timer, NLR, RDM etc. against small users, which is extremely stupid for a staff member to do.
I was ignoring rule breaking and reports coming from well known players such as those in BiB or any of the well known gangs due to not wanting to have to sit in a sit for a prolonged amount of time dealing with what I thought would happen with them going "No I want him warned" or just generally not wanting to do a long sit.
Very recently on SSRP I've been joining sitting on the server for a good hour or two not doing anything staff related or role-play related, I instead just chose to noclip around the map uncloaked just generally making other admins look bad by doing this.
Surf is a different story, since starting to play it again and receive my powers back I've been a professional staff member and have done nothing considered abusive or unfair. I and many other players would know I am a very friendly player.
On SSRP I've also found myself to be acting considerably aggressive towards users and staff, if I got a snarky comment I would take it as an opportunity to start an argument with a person, apologies to those players who I've acted rudely towards.
Other than finding myself acting poorly around the community I want to resign as I've just found myself with no time for Garry's Mod and generally getting bored with it.
My reasoning for resigning from Surf is much different to that of SSRP and I want the Surf lead team and users to know that.
My reasons for resigning from Surf are as stated 2 paragraphs up and that is that I am wanting to leave as I am bored of Garry's Mod.
I'm also not even going to meet staff quota for Surf or SSRP, I know it's only one bad week out of what others have said about me to be great weeks but I don't like imperfection, everything with me should be running well and if it's not it just puts me down...
I want to thank the rather large group of friends that aren't staff who I have here that still manage to make ZARP enjoyable for myself.

I want to let people know my activity will not change, I'm just starting to lose the plot with being staff, I don't feel I'm playing the game that much now and feel I'm using 100% of my time on staffing and not playing and enjoying what is a game.
My gang will be run as normal just with less presence from me, I'm glad I have Chummy, Nib and Tyler to thank for partly owning the gang which allows for me to take breaks if needed without having to worry about the gang dying, I know with them it's in good hands.
Once again, thanks for having me as a staff member, I may be back soon but I do as before mentioned have a job coming up which is going to last the season. I was convinced I could manage being staff and still get my job done even with only about 4 hours a week but as it turns out I don't feel that way any more even with an infinite amount of time that I currently have before coming up to the job.
I know in the most recent months I've resigned, revoked and re-applied a ton of times but I am sure this is the final time I resign.
