Stepping Down/Moving Aside

[Wolf]

Hello IG Community

 

So after recent thoughts I have decided to basically step down from owner and move to the Advisor position to allow Cecil to take Ownership over IG and keep leading this community on the right path.  This decision wasn't easy especially the history that IG has, the people I have met over the past 3 and a half years and on top of that all the friends I have made. When i first joined IG 3 years ago with a group of friends I would never of thought IG was going to go from a small 30-40 playerbase to the leading and biggest GMOD server/community for Oceania, this was a massive accomplishment that is all thanks down to the players, staff and some amazing people that have put in hundreds and I mean literals hundreds of their own time to improve IG over the past 3-4 years. IG has had its ups and down the past 3-4 years and it didn't look good for a set period of time where a incident occurred from people creating rumors and making up lies which took us down to 30-40 players however thankfully the truth came out and all was cleared of the rumours and lies regarding IG and IG became bigger than ever with people waiting to get in the server at 5pm on a weekday. This was a huge moment for everyone at IG as everyone in the staff team, management team and even players worked their asses off to prove that those lies and rumors were false and there hard work paid off. 

I have met some amazing people since joining IG and becoming its Owner, these people will know who they are as they are not just part of the Management team, they are Advisors, staff and even players that made me laugh and given me amazing memories i look back on when thinking about IG. Honestly though as much as everyone deserves allot of credit, there is a couple people that have amazed me over and over again and are one of the biggest reason (everyone pitched in but these people just took the stage by storm) and they are Whitey, Moose, RageTank and the devs. These people are the reason IG become optimized, always adding in new custom content with reforming everything and working hundreds of hours coding or creating spreadsheets and protocols and teaching people new ways to create and lead the rp on the server. Without them I think IG would of never become this big. Now I wouldn't say that I am not sad stepping down as Owner, It actually sucks as its like reaching a final destination on a amazing trip, I helped create a home for gamers, I helped create a place where people felt welcomed no matter what they believed in, there skin colour or anything, I helped make a place where everyone respected each other and created friendship groups that will last a very long time. The fact I help create this and helped lead this makes me very proud of everyone in IG and why it does truly suck that my time has come as Owner. However like all things, a community needs a vision and because I reached my vision I believe it's time for a new one with a fresh head of the community which is why I have handed it down to Cecil as he will lead this community into a fresh vision that will benefit IG. 

Honestly even though I know there are people out there that hate IG for their own reasons but they cannot deny the memories they made on IG, the laughter and friends they made will be with them for a very long time. 

Now I am not leaving IG as it is a home that I help create for Gamers, and I wouldn't want to leave that as I still have a lot of friends here that I will still talk to and play games with especially in the Teamspeak, I am simply stepping aside to Join Whitey and the others on the Advisors group to assist IG and its new Head/Owner push forward. Again I would like to thank all old players, new players, Staff, Developers, management and anyone that helped grow IG, you have honestly made me very proud to of been a Owner for such an amazing community and I will never regret the memories I have Made. 

Thank you all very much and I hope you help Cecil also lead this community. 

 

Regards,

Ex Grand General Wolfy 

My final salute as Owner.

@Cecil Does this mean I can finallly be Grand Admiral Thrawn? I promise i'm reformed

Wolf, I've known you from the first day on the server. You were one of the friendliest and welcoming people that I have ever met. You have helped me on many occasions and while I havent seen you much lately and you probably dont even remember me you have been one of the most influencial people when it comes to how I try to portray myself on the server. 

I just want to say thankyou for everything you have done for myself, for others, and for the server. We'll never forget you and how influencial you have been across the server. 

[wflizzi]

I still remember when you bullied me as Grand General..

 

Sad to see you leave, see you around, Constable Whitefield .
