The Last Goodbye

First things first. Lets get some mood music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tpzpul11Us

Now, this is one of the hardest things Ive had to do gaming wise. For 18 months and 5 days Ive been playing the game Conduit 2. Ive met ALOT of people on the GameFAQs board, and thru Facebook and YouTube. So many players, and so many relationships.

The C2 board to me wasn't just a place to talk and discuss the game. It was a social board, you get to know the many posters and people there and their personalities, its a weird thing to consider that so many people with differing opinions and ideals can co-exist on a well mannered board and you feel at home and respected and loved by the people around you. Ive played with so many players, but Ill give it a shot by saying my goodbyes

First off [Lost Cause] for most of you this isn't a goodbye, but a change in scenery since we have agreed to stay together as a clan and move to new games and consoles. Still tho.

Lig: One of the original four members. The friendship we forged and carried will be a long and musical one, always an intelligent opinion backed up by facts, and your ability to talk about depression and its effects had impacted me and drew me closer to you. It takes a serious kind of strength to admit certain things, and to educate others as well. I'm glad we added on Facebook.

Nightrise: One of the original four members. Your damn Shrieker! The main reason I recruited you was so I wouldn't have to battle you in clan wars against that thing! But I did always like your personality and attitude and even tho you have left the game and board for the most part. I am following you on Twitter, and intend to stay in touch.

Andy: One of my favourite members of [LC] due to the fact you are in the UK but always make time to play with me and talk to me about life and share jokes. The fact you let me into your personal life, and talked to me about certain matters only strengthens the bond we created. I look forward to pursuing the friendship and the clan activities with you for many years. Until its just you and me left as old men. Handing my C2 leadership duties to you was a no brainer, and am confident you will keep with the history of dominance and perfect record on Lost City.

augie: The only member that asked to join. You were always a joy to play with in GB settings, and your sudden departure still bothers me, not because I'm upset you left without saying anything, but because I worried something happened to you. I hope all is well in your life and respective endeavors.

Symph: I felt like I won the lottery when I recruited you, and you have been such an amazing talent to the clan, and a very laid back guy to talk to. I hope we can chat more via Skype and get to know each other in the future. You fitted right in with the other guys so well, it was almost like you were there from day 1.

Mike: Dat Carby, another member I was so impressed with I felt like I stole something. Samu5 recommended you, and I've never looked back, but your dedication to gaming and our unique style of banter when we are joking is something I'm glad Ill be able to continue to do via chat. Ill stay subscribed to your YouTube cause I do enjoy your content. I look forward to competing against you in many games for years to come, since you seem to have every game like I do.

Dash: Probably my greatest friend in the clan. You made the 'Post-Samu5' era alot of fun, and we got along based on our attitudes and interests. I intend to expand the clan with you wherever it may go. You taught me lots of things about message boards, and showed me different sides to things I had already thought I known. Was surprised you joined [LC] but had I known Id like you this much, I probably would've pointed a gun to your head until you wore the banner.

The rest of the board, whereas might not have been in my clan, but that doesn't mean they were any less important to me.

Mossy: Whats left to say? We have had it out over every topic, every discussion, every board member, and have challenged me to a fight. We are the exact same person like you said, so that's why we get along yet we butt heads in a very polite way. Your departure was understood, but still sadly received. Our level 60 match wont happen, but that's just our style anyways. I hope things with your family and health stay in good spirits and divine protection.

Punch: Wow the jokes we run with eh? We are just a couple of jokers looking for anyone to join in the fun. I sure didn't like you when I joined the board at launch, but I do appreciate all the changes you made in the game, and how you basically harassed HvS to the point of a restraining order. I think we both agree that C2 needs some work, but we both want another installment. So I intend to see you on that board.

Signal: You always seemed a lil too nice for me, but in turn you were always a lil too nice to me. I appreciate the love and kindness you showed me even throughout my villain phase on the board. I feel you understand where I was coming from and what I intended to do. You never have to worry about our friendship its pretty strong, even tho someone else is always vying for your dedication to him. Feel free to PM me for TvC, MW3, and your C2 match. Ill grant you your 1v1. Just remember, I don't care what lil kids think of me. Neither should you.

Chronic: Our smack talking could easily make a topic reach 500. You always knew it was all jokes and even if it looked like we taking it seriously we both knew we weren't. That's what makes you the best in the world in my opinion. Not just your Battle Ladder dethroning skill, but your humble bottom of the ladder attitude. I never got my rematch and my smack talking 500 topic, but I'm glad you were the one to toss me of my default throne.

Hawk: We had our differences, but we also got our friendship. Ill be readding you on Facebook if you accept, and we can stay friends for as long as it makes sense to. Also thanks for doing me the favor on my last day on the board. Do me proud.

Brennan: I'm not sure what to think of you and me, some days we get along, some days we really don't, but the fact you tossed me your email before I left shows the type of guy you are, and that suits me fine. At the end of the day we are still friends, just clash heads on opinions, but that's how she goes. We seemed to be rivals, maybe not in skill (You are better) but in attitude and the fact we were both leaders of the core clans in Clan Scene. Ill email ya soon. Also tell the rest of B05S good games, and I enjoyed playing against every player with the tag.

Khmer: Probably the most rad member on the board from the board revival era. You and Drift brought in tons of people and really revived the board, you should be proud of that, and I am honored you and Drift both drew me in C2 themed artwork. Our windshield was anti-climatic, but our clan war sure wasn't! Still the most fun me and the guys have had in a clan match. It was back and forth, and no excuses afterwards and no hard feelings, and the best part WE WON! haha. I hope ye toss me your emails or Facebooks so I can stay in touch, and tell Drift I enjoyed playing him in HC when we were mic spamming our teammate. Also tell the boys in BPB they are all great players and loved playing and talking to them all.

Derpy: I know your secret. Besides that you are like a member to [LC] to me, and hope to see you in CS:GO if you ever get the hardware. Always fun to talk to, and hope to keep seeing ya around the chat.

RonJohn: I feel proud we coined the nickname RJ (clever right?) but I feel like we single handed retrained you in C2 in the HC mode. I was super happy to see your clan finally see a clan match and to see D-S get on their feet. I hope you go undefeated for the duration of your clan matches. Tell the boys in D-S that they got serious talent and I enjoyed battling them.

OmegaShen: I'm grateful you took leadership of CMSx long enough to do clan wars against us. Even tho it took a few tries and the results were a bit mixed. It was the hardest war we have had. I hope to keep playing you in fighting games in the future, and if you get a Wii U Ill be handing you your ass in Tekken Tag 2. Until then you can hand me mine in TvC. If you get too busy in the future, good luck in the things you pursue. Tell the boys in CMSx that they are awesome guys (assuming any of em come back)

Skozo: Don't gotta say bye to you, we are friends on Facebook, and I'm glad you gave me the chance to try and help you out in life and with your Wii. Hit me up on Facebook we catch up.

Swift: You are probably my favourite guy Ive added from the board. You serve the Navy, you love hardcore music, you intend to get tattooed up like me, and you are always fun to play with and are the REAL founder of [LC] I took the name to C2, cause I didn't want to see what we started die. Now its flourishing, so get your Wii's online working and lets get some online gaming going. Got ya on FB and Twitter.

JK: List master, fellow RD user. Always a joker. There isn't anything I don't like about you. Just wish we had more games together. Hope to see you on other games.

Keith: Used to HATE playing you with that SMAW, but once you reformed and got that AR-C I was digging your style and upbeat attitude. Keep it up, and it was nice meeting you.

Krish, Gush, and Zeke: Loved playing with you guys, and always had a blast in the matches. Doubt any of you will see thing, but if you do. Know I respect and was amazed by all of you.

Kain: You took 500 from Lig. Wow. But you are a rad dude, so I'm letting that slide. Hope to see you on other boards in the future.

The rest of the board: Sorry if I lumped you into a clan goodbye or missed you, there has been hundreds of users it seems since launch and Ive played all of you. Ill remember you all even if you didn't talk to me ever or had a distinct style in game.

Rhoads: Not much to say man. We have had highs and lows, and at the end I'm not gonna be a fucking asshole about it. I hope you find what you are looking for. Have a good life, and hope things get better for you.

Last but not least Samu5: I gotta call you my greatest rival, we played together daily for over a year. The whole reason I'm as good as I am, and even have a style is cause I had to kill you. I had to be able to challenge you and gain your attention, I wanted the board to acknowledge me to the point I wasn't ignored on every topic. By gaining respect and praise from you I was able to do that. You leaving happened. If you are Silent Ninja and tried to thwart [LC] its just how our relationship has been, you have always been better, but you sure disliked Rads and Widows when I was in control of them. Even if you arnt on the board anymore, your ghost wont let some players sleep at night. That's what makes you the best. Not your skill or questionable connection, the fact you can stomp the best players, and still treat everyone with respect until the end when you had your own villain phase. I hope you come back gaming in the future until then email me whenever.

That's it for my goodbyes.
I am Mindesyn,
I am Jaye, [DM]Jaye, and [LC]Jaye.
I am the creator and supporter of Clan Scene.
I am a rad abuser, RD user, Widow/Speed user, SR user, and TPC user.
I am a Drudge,
I am a CCP player.
I am a Team Hard Core player.
I used to be called the topic killer, because any time I posted the topic would die.

I did my time on this terrible game. It has been hell some days, but some days I really love it, and Ill miss it, and it sucks to leave the game and the board, but this is the way it goes when you are a major gamer like me. I stayed playing this game because of all of you. If you are reading this you contributed to my skill, my style, my reason for posting, and my reason for leaving.
Ill finish my C2 account without posting so if you see me online feel free to play with me. I will also be on TCon from now on, maxing out that account. I have Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. PM me if you care.

Good Bye Conduit 2
