XBLS Closure
« on: April 01, 2010, 07:07:59 AM »
After much thought, consideration and mulling over I have decided that after Doc's RnH2 tournament finishes XBLS will be closing. This was not an easy decision to make and it has taken me several weeks to finally type this message up. Due to personal commitments and real life stresses my ability to oversee things here has reached an all time low. I have several other personal projects in the work that are taking more of my time up than I ever intended and are currently higher on my list of priorities.

It's been a fun journey, I have enjoyed ever minute of it. Thanks to everyone who has supported us, moderated, shit stirred, posted or contributed any other way. Thanks to all the friends and enemies I have made, you're all cool as far as I am concerned.

All good things come to an end and all things come good in the end.

Yours,

That's a bummer, Refuse. But, you got to do what you got to do. So, I respect your choice and I know you must be serious about having to many other things to do. But I do hope to see you on BC2 when I turn seventeen.  ;)

Well,

Even I took a break myself. And it's been a good long run, all started out by peeps who were all interested in a Great Game. I will miss seeing many of you everyday, and taking it for granted that you were always only an ON button away. But, all good things come to an end. It was a heck of a ride. When Mohs13 died, I asked refuse to come help us. And he did just that. We got to see both, the highs and lows of what could be achieved with this game. The good, The bad, and The Ugly.

I will miss this, and think back fondly of it. Peace to you both, refuse and Fero. Thanks for sticking with it as long as you did. We've all earned some great friends because of it.

DAMN, GOOD ONE. i honestly did not see this coming. this was a very good April fools joke. as you can see you gave everyone a good scare. you wake up and the first thing you see on your favorite site is that it is closing. you caught us before we could wake up.
