Yep, it's over. I'm done.

This has been a long time in the making, but only last night did I finally come to terms with my decision. I have decided to walk away from the gaming scene.

I'm not sure if this will be a permanent decision, but the fact of the matter is I don't play games anymore. I don't even enjoy playing games when I try to. It isn't fun for me.

Why do I spend money on something I don't even like? That's a good question. So, I'm no longer going to do it.

I have informed Sirus of my decision and he will be taking over the server machine and putting it on his credit card. The servers will remain online until he decides to take them down. I cannot tell you when that will occur. HLStatsx will run out within a couple of days now and I will not be renewing it.

The website will remain online for those wishing to remain in contact with the people they've become friends with over the time we've spent together over the past nine or ten years.


Please understand this was not an easy decision. In fact, I've been thinking it over for about five months now. Here's where I'm at:

I am broke. I have house payments. I have school payments. I attend school full time. My school is like turbo school. Generally I spend 10-16 hours on campus. They kick our asses. Any additional funds I once had have gone to books, tools, and Red Bull/Cigarettes, which has become my diet lately. I haven't slept in a little over 40 hours and I won't be able to sleep until 1am tomorrow because of a lighting grid hang I'm working on.

I have just enough cash to pay my share of the bills here and feed myself. I don't have the funds to continue to pay for a hobby which I no longer have the time for and which distracts me from achieving my dreams and goals. For this, I am sorry.


This will come as a surprise and a shock to many, and I'm sure it will sadden you all. Ten years. We did this for ten years. It's incredible. The friends I've made throughout these years are irreplaceable. Please believe that this wasn't an easy decision. I am saddened by the fact that I finally have to throw in the towel, after years of insulting those rival groups who grew and fell while we carried on strong.

I feel like I'm dying. My health is shit right now. My life was turned upside-down recently, and school is the only thing I have to look forward to, and I am enjoying it greatly.

I cannot refund any donations. Donations were always used to reimburse me for the previous month. This months donations went to covering the final server cost for October, and even then I'm in the hole.

Realistically we just weren't getting the donations I needed to continue this thing.


I have grown to love many of you like family. The website will stay live so that we can keep in touch. Also, you know how to get ahold of me. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me any time.


Thanks for a fucking awesome run, guys. This place will always hold a special place in my heart. It helped shape me into who I am today. Is this the end forever? Who knows. For now, I am unable to continue this place. Maybe down the line you'll see a familiar server name in a multiplayer menu somewhere, if anything ever comes out that I can get into.

So, with that, thank you for being the best fucking gaming community I've ever seen in my life. It was a success. You should all be fucking proud to have been apart of it and to have helped shape it into the juggernaut it is today. Without you, we never would have lasted this long.

So, with that, I'd once again like to say that I am sorry. You guys have been awesome.
