It's official... I'm not Official

[Xylak]

After some deep pondering I recently came to the feel that I no longer wanted to be the Raid Officer. I've decided to relinquish my post and fade back into the shadows where a warlock belongs (well, not really THAT far back. I'm still around, you know. Still veteran. I'm not totally giving up on you yet/you haven't got rid of me yet (delete as applicable).
This is not due to any particular reason other than I just feel like I don't want the job any more and it should be done by someone that's, perhaps, more driven than I am.
It's been quite a challenge and lots of (frustrating) fun but I want to take half a step back on things.
I'm not leaving the guild or WoW or wanting to stop raiding, it's why I play

I have already spoken with Zooggy and other concerned parties and, moving us forwards, will be the stalwart Lideon (/cheer) (hmmm "Lideon The Stalwart" has a ring). He's been a driving force in us progressing into Firelands, is an all-round good egg* and, for me, the obvious choice.

A massive thank you and hugs to everyone who has helped and supported me during my brief tenure - luvs ya all

For The Haven.
For The Horde.

Xylak.



*yes, i know eggs aren't really round, they're, you know, egg-shaped, it's just an expression dammit. for the lols. go away.

/ I has a bit of a sad

That's cool mate. At least you are not leaving!

And who is this Lideon person? Sounds gay... and foreign.

 

[Zooggy]

Hey,

Xylak, thanks for leading our raid crew forward after the exodus, you did a stellar job getting us back on our feet and into successful raiding again!

Enjoy your well deserved rest. And of course, looking forward to raiding with you, while you're, you know, just raiding!

Everyone else, give a big gratz and welcome to Lideon and make sure to be as supporting to him as you were to Xylak and to the others that went before him. Remember, these guys are all trying to live up to T-Bone's legacy, and them shoes, them shoes are big!...

Cheers,
J.

I miss T-Bone and his crazy scottish shennanigans
Anyway, thanks X, welcome L You did a great job indeed and I'm certain Lideon will do the same.

I had a great time with you bossing over me, Xylak. Hopefully Lid will be just as good as Xylak were/is

Sounds gay... and foreign.

You're Irish --> gay...and foreign..and Irish.

You're Irish --> gay...and foreign..and Irish.

Hahahahah xD I can't stop laughing


Anyway, I never had you as a raidleader wich makes me sad, as I think you'd be great at it.

I think Lid will also do a great job, gratz mate!

I has a massive sad about this.

That's not meant as any disrespect to Lideon, who will do an awesome job, but for Xylak, who really did drag our raiding off it's knees and give us some of our best progression and most enjoyable raids in a long time after the exodus of the Lincoln Massive (and associated hangers-on).

Thank you Xylak, raid leading isn't for everyone, but you took the mantle and wore it well. Lideon has some big shoes to fill - not just T-Bone's, but DaddyLock's too.

 

[Xylak]

I really appreciate all the supportive comments but I would like to say that it wasn't just me, everyone involved in raiding has played their part and, really, it's been down to all of us.
Maybe I am underselling myself but I don't think so, without all the Raiders there is no raiding
Thanks everyone, let's keep going!

After some deep pondering whine whine whine I give up moan whine moan whine some more moan like the girly man that I am...

Pussy...




Deal with it!

(You know I love you, right? Seriously, you did good. Amazing how you stuck it out with that bunch of idiots, not to mention Razaak )

 

[Razaak]

Rob... you didn't group me in with the bunch of idiots... this is the nicest thing you've ever said about me... *sobs*

I WUB YOU MAN!

*cries like a girly little bitch*

 

[Auryn]

Xylah, you're awesome! No matter how you are part of the guild <3

Ashya is saying nice things to me...
Raz is crying like a girl...
Has this thread wandered into some sort of bizarre alternate universe wormhole type thing?

I, for one, welcome our alternate universe wormhole Overlords...

*facepalm* only just now saw this post... I was already wondering why it seemed to be Lideon doing the raidleading....

anyways, he (=Lideon the Stalwart) seems to be doing fine at that and it gives me more chance to goof about with my fellow lock I suppose, seeing as he doesn't have to be that serious-face anymore ;-)
