Hiya! I have come to the most difficult decision possible... After 447 days in this great community... I've decided to lay down my position as one of the Administrators of PokeTD/Sam Dan Central/Pandora Gaming Network. Whatever the name was/is/will be, it will always be in my heart. During my stay I've met great people, and have seen many people leave. Today is the day it's my turn to say goodbye... One year and a couple of months ago, I decided to check out Newgrounds again after some years. I saw the game "Pokemon Tower Defense" and decided to play it. Soon I found out how to crack and hack the game with a simple hack-program, and became interested in the game. I went to Sam's Blog and saw a link to a forum. I registered and checked out several stuff. This was April 6: My first day on the PokeTD-Proboards forums. ( http://poketd.proboards.com ) This forum was build by MrSmith, Chronothesis, TheDarkFlareon, MadnessYo and Pokefan Gen 1 (known under a different name back then). I became active in mainly 2 sections: Hacking and Role-Playing. Me and Jonaton became friends in here, since we were the first and only active hackers back then, and secretly helped each other out when Sam changed his security. Jonaton created the story "The Legend of Mewgia" and I happily joined in. Together we created the famous Mewgia (fusion of Mew and Lugia) and the Pink Crobat "Croby" *crobatface*. We had great writers helping us out. I will never forget this awesome story, written by (sorry if I miss a name or 2... My memory isn't the best :3 ) ngu77 (creator of Templar), aleony (the Ninja! and someone who I will miss chatting with very much... ), Justin (The Mewgikarp), fenmio (Monferno), rssp1 (Josh+Salamance), Sazandora, Zackirus (Spiritomb), ditto20 (Typhlotion), mewthree, PokemonGod777, sonic4081; and of course Jonaton and me and possibly some I have missed (sorry!). It turned into a huge story: A book, over 70 pages thick. It was an honor to write this story with all these creative people ![]() After a while on Proboards, the admins grew inactive. I decided to contact MrSmith, because I didn't want the forum to die, and he entrusted me with the main-admin account. Immediately I made some respected, and trusted people Admins and Mods. This new team consisted out of the Admins; Chronothesis (who I kept, as he was still slightly active), Charmander (a guy who posted like mad, and helped out everyone who needed help), Kratos (an intelligent guy, who ran another successful RP). As Mods I chose my good friend Jonaton, Budgetspaner (apart from ChaiHai probably the most active member, although sometimes a lil spammish ) and p0kdxfi113r (a great guy who had a huge dedication to the community).amou After a while, Jon and p0k were promoted, and DragonTamerChris (a smart kid, who we thought was 21+, but was 12 at the time), No8 (Probably the best script-maker I've ever known), and zShenanigans (a very active helper) were made mods as well! A first chat was made (Chatango), and the activity grew. Our great "famous" chatters Nick_10, Dat33 and Abrolate joined in these early chat-days, and never left ever since I'm thankful that all 3 have shown such dedication to the chat, that they always continued to stay with us! To me, all of you have really been staff-members as well ![]() However, at a lot of times, ProBoards became a nuisance for the staff. Moderating was difficult, extra options could not be added, most stuff had huge bugs/glitches, etc,etc. So we decided to make a huge move: Go to Zetaboards! This meant that all Staff-Members had to work hard to build a forum from scratch. We didn't want to open it, until it was perfectly ready. With this move, No8 was made an admin (because he showed he knew a LOT about administrating and scripting), Mudkipz (a dear friend who has always been a delight to talk with) and Link (My right-hand, who I trust no matter what!) were made mods. We added new stuff: a money system, a working reputation system, new emoticons, badges, and more! Soon after the creation, I went to Portugal during the summer holidays, and I met up with Jonaton! It was a great day at the beach We even surprised the forum-people with a photograph of us. Most people didn't believe we actually met each other haha!When I returned from Portugal, some people left... Chronothesis was too inactive, p0k had no time for the forum anymore, kratos' house was destroyed in a tornado and Charmander had to concentrate on his real life more. Zackirus (the Cynical mod, who always came up with own possible solutions to stuff!) and Kimmylube (a great chat mod, who proved to be a great forum mod, and friend) were added to the staff! However... The activeness of the whole forum started to decrease... At a certain moment, it was all about negatives... As we decided to be "anti-hacking", an unofficial war with the other forum GraphicForce created began... PTD-evolution was pro-hacking and had a device with which ANY Pokemon could be created! Even rare shinies! After calming both communities, m16dernwarfare started to advertise his hack-videos on both forums, and became "enemy #1" on both forums. After this, an infamous member (Weedle) decided to spam the forums and break numerous rules, and this became the most talked thing around. Something had to change... Less activity... More negativity... So in the end we decided that 1 community is better than 2! So we merged PokeTD and PTD-evolution into the official PTD forum: Sam Dan Central! With this "new" forum, the Squad system was introduced, and people competed against each other in different squads: Omega, Equinox, Shadow and Epica (later Shadow+Epica were merged into 1). And a new era was born! New friends, new forum, new systems! Everyone had to get used to this big change, but in the end everyone got used to it. And we stayed together until we broke ties with Sam, and became Pandora Gaming Network... However... I have chosen to quit my staff-position. I will never forget this great year-and-a-little, with the great friends I made along the way. But I have to go. I don't have enough time to do what an Admin needs to do, and it doesn't feel right to take up a place in the staff, without doing a lot anyways. Perhaps some day I will return, but don't count on it haha. Hopefully I will hop on frequently; chat or forums. Some people that can't be missed in this story, but didn't exactly "fit in" specific places... So I will shout out here: Purpl3: I will miss our talks a LOT! (already missing them sorry :/ )... We NEED to keep contact via FaceBook u hunzy ![]() Channti: Although we started on a rocky road (sorry for that :3 ), I'm glad that we got along pretty well in the end We need to keep in touch ![]() Hich: Although you're a huge germ, I'm glad you kept on helping me out with all those scripts and commands thanks ![]() Sherlock: I love your competitiveness! Whether it was GPX+ or Dueling on YGO, you kept trying until you could win We had some great talks, and thanks for being my "personal investigator" when needed haha ![]() Kyandro: It was great having your joyful spirit in the chat Good luck with whatever you will do Maybe we'll meet each other someday in our great country The Netherlands ![]() Akuma: You Troll! At times you got on my nerves, but in the end I started to like your somewhat sarcastic style hahaMocky: The shiny Caterpie Although you walked the border a LOT... I've always considered you a friend A great guy ![]() NinjaGod: King of Trolls Enough said I miss you...The Snowies: You 2 are great Always trying to make everyone happy no matter what. Negativity is something you guys won't accept, and will try to change everything negative to something positive. Great jobs ![]() Star Fox: You've proved yourself to be a great duelist, and a good chat mod ![]() ThunderStarf: You, GPX-god! You're already missed in the chat I will miss you more...Zorc: You YGO-beast! In all duels... I think there wasn't a single person to win a full match versus you... A great tactical/strategic-genius ![]() Mewy/TG: We've only met a couple of months ago, but it was fun helping out with decks, dueling you and talking with you Good luck ![]() Kindsoul: Even though you have left a while ago, I won't forget our chats I'm glad we have a lil contact through GPX still ![]() Samzy: A great admin We never really talked a lot, but I was happy you became admin Keep on doing what you do ![]() And finally GraphicForce: I'm so glad we decided to merge! In my opinion we did a great job Administrating this community, this family! Although we sometimes disagreed, we always have managed to keep good contact It's sad both our activities have dropped lately, and I will really miss working together with you. Hopefully you will keep this community alive, as it really is a great family (a few shout outs to some people I've not known VERY well, but have to be remembered: - JohtoTrainer - Haunter - Keita - xplay10 - Muncho - Trainer Red - Ninjaoety - Scylla - Fail - Hypermania - Bagon - watapomka - Xehanorto - almostpro - M[@]T - purple_umbreon - Shojiro - Shinyhunt I'm sorry if I missed some of you... I blame my memory if I forgot someone ![]() However! I will miss everyone of you. A lot have proved to be great, and some of you, I consider to be friends. It's a sad moment to me that I'll leave you, but I have to... ![]() If anyone wants, feel free to PM me with your FaceBook-ID, so I can add you to keep in touch! Croby flies away... grtz, The MMaester |

</3 mmaester... you have always been awesome and I will never forget your awesome keytar talent! Xp boo yeah! Make your dreams soar high man. I can't say I didn't see this coming, people always come and go in our lives and we must accept that.. I just wish we could have some contact numbers or something somehow xD it's HARD to see a friend go just like that. But, it's rules I must follow, I wish I could have some means of contact with you.. I have left Facebook for good so, that's one place cut off..Hey never forget Pokemon man! And maybe one day some of us will meet on the street and go 'hey! I know you! xD You're my friend from the forums, long live forums! *0*" so, yeah.. Wish you all the good luck and prosperity in life man if things get confusing and if you can't make it out between dreams and what you want to go with, choose what you think you'll always do and never get tired of and be the best at.. Smiles go for miles and with that, I guess I can give you this little farewell.. I shall never forget mewgia.. Awesome and epic times we've all had.. Cya MM and do take care ^.^

And yes, we ARE a great and a very big family... It's a part of me, this forum xD couldn't leave it even when I was being emotionally disturbed (big time). Then, I realized, I am who I am right now because of the friends I made here and I'm really empty without it So, Mmaester, I request you, please do visit us now and then in chat or anywhere else ^.^ That way, we won't have to miss you like crazy.(yes, just managed to read ALL of your speech I was doing some work earlier.. and your speech really touched me, Mmaester, memories :'D)Edited by Master Snowy, Jun 29 2012, 01:42 PM.

Just like with JohtoTrainer's and Mudkipz's (along with other mods') goodbyes, I don't know what to say. It's always sad to see a goodbye, and I had trouble as it is with some well known Moderators leaving, but with a Admin leaving, this is big news. I'm glad that you remembered and gave a shout to me, for I feel that not many people tend to do so when they leave. We definitely should have talked more than we did, but given our local times being apart by 6 hours, we probably wouldn't have found the time to do so. Besides that though, I wish you the best of luck for what your future holds. Us here at the forums won't ever forget you. Whether someone becomes a new admin or not, your remarks as being one of the best Admins won't be forgotten. Edited by xplay10, Jun 29 2012, 01:49 PM.

All good things come to an end... sadly ![]() But when you have to go you just... have to go. Always remember that there is no such thing as a bad decision, as long as you do what feels right. We havent talked ever since I quit chatting, which is months ago. Its a shame.... I will always remember you and Croby, and the good times I had on the chat and this Forum with you. You will always be my favorite Admin! (I like you too, other Admins ;P) Maybe I will see you walking around one day here in The Netherlands and Im like "Hey, I know that dude with the afro and keytar." xD I really have nothing to say, as others already said it or I just cant put it into words. But we will miss you and you will be remembered! Lol yeah, Red is right! Lots of Pikachu's xP

It's very sad to see such a valuable and epic member leave, but you have your reasons and I respect that. It's been amazing working with you and if you ever come to the UK gimme a shout, I owe you a few beers! Your admin account will always be reserved for you if you ever decide to come back in future, and know that if you ever need me, I'm just an email or PM away ![]() Take care buddy, all the best in what you go out to achieve. |

i have no words. my life on the forums were really based around a few people (pokefan gen 1 chaihai and u) chaihai has now left and pokefan is kinda inactive now so really spending time with u was one of my favourite things. i cant express my anger and disappointment when u came on the chat and said ur leaving. ill try to keep in touch with u through facebook but really... its never going to be the same again. not for me, not for the forum, not for anyone. i hope u see the truth that we need u and u need us (i hope) and ull come back. all the luck at university man. im going to miss my furry pink crobat friend. peace. |
