I don't really know where to start... Over my time at the Academy, I have met many great people and had endless hours of fun and enjoyment. I have laughed with people and I have cried with them - and all of these things have helped make me a better person. For me, though, the time has come to retire from the Jedi Knight scene. Please note, this is not because of 'the state of the Academy' in any way, shape or form. It is a personal decision that I have made. I no longer have the time, nor the will to play these games. Yes there are other reasons, but they're not things that the majority of people are gunna be told. Please note, there is no chance that I will be back playing these games. As you read this, I am selling JK2 for any small amount of money I could possibly get for it (if you want it, just email me) and I will be returning JK3 to the guy who gave it to me. And I, most certainly, will not be buying them again. I cannot, however, leave a great community such as this - a community that I have been part of since Q3 2002. So, as it seems every retiring guy says, I will still be around on the forums, IRC and, of course, MSN. There are so many people I would like to thank - I will name just a few. The rest of you know who you are. Lord Exar Kun NoFrikinFun Shannon SmilyKrazy Darkwood Eclipse Without you guys (and Smily  ), I would never have enjoyed my time here as much as I have.I would also like to thank Massadoobie. Kudos to you dude for taking on this project and running with it - this is possibly the best community on the Internet, I hope it stays that way. A big thank you to DJ for being such a darn nice guy and a brilliant webmaster, there's nothing worse than a bad website - and you've ensured we have an uber-l33t website! The amount of friends I've made at my time at the Academy is huge, and just so you can see I recognise you, I'm listing as many of you as I can think of off the top of my head, here: Exar, NoFrik, Shannon, Smily, Darkwood, Eclipse, Angel D'Kana, Jaiko D'Kana, Bail, Legolian, Xavier, KitMitsu, D@Mned, Daidalus, LaMagra, Freedon Nadd, Ulic Qel-Droma, Bubu, Solo, Cmad, Monty, Odan, Flash, Furi0us, Narsil, Duke, Squibit, Rosered, Brother Kow, Thomas Skywalker, Xanatos and D@RTHM@UL (in no particular order). I appologise to anyone who I have forgotten to thank or missed out, but you know I appreciate all of you! Anyway, I'll shut up my speech and carry on annoying Doobie over IRC... Signing off...

Quote: I almost never play the game, and I'm not retired! Only people with JAK+ rank should retire if they can't fulfill their position anymore. Students can do as they please, like me But if you wish to have the [Retired] tag behind your nickname, be my guest  Its only there to inform people that I don't play the games _______________ Website |
