Dark Renegade's Departure

[Razor]

Well, as seeing that Flying Muffin has posted a link to DR's forums, which I literally clicked on my iPhone while helping my parents move some furniture... these comments has made me literally cried. It was really heartfelt and loving. I miss these memories with all of the administrators and players alike.

Lewis(Codedie): I'm really thankful to you for being my greatest asset in the making of Dragonball Z: Immortal Damnation and Dragonball GT: Dark Renegade. Due to your awesome administration position and graphic skills, we've made this far! You've bought laughter to my heart, body, and soul. You're literally the best friend, if not - the real best friend, I've had for longest period. I'm really thankful that I've found you and met you. I recalled the time when you were an admin on another dragonball game and I was a newbie on that game - which was my FIRST time playing dragonball game on BYOND. Somehow, we just bonded together. When I decided to start a dragonball game, I thought of you for some reason that I can't quite fathom. I'm glad to hear that I helped you further your pixel art career. I wish you the best of your endeavors!!! -generic heart shape- you, Lewis.

Azrael: I know we have had a several breakdowns in the past, especially that you thought you did the right thing by siding with Mok during the Immortal Damnation stage. But, that's how we learn lessons, by making irrational choices. You're the reason I come back, you practically asked me to return after I took 3 to 4 months of hiatus from updating DR. I want to thank you for helping me boost DR with your help and such. Thank you very much for doing that! I do hope you get to your wishes and goals in your life! Best of wishes, Viktor Jacobs.

Slinkers: Well, where to begin with? When you first logged on ID/DR(unsure which one, but it was between these times I believe), I got all hungry because you were named Epic Pizza or something like to it. I used emote to try to eat you up, haha... you've become a fine administrator as well as good friend of mine. Thank you for helping balance the game for me. You've been really epic and awesome, so I wanna you to focus on what you want and ignore what others think of you and say to you. Even if they think lowly of you, just tell them to fuck off and do what you want. ;D <3 ya, Josh!

Anna: Haha, you're really awesome gal I've met on ID/DR. I've met several gals on this game, however you've become one of the most favorite gals I've met! You told me to not give up, especially when I felt like things aren't going well and I'm glad you told me to not give up, because it has gone so far and has gotten a whole lot better. Hope you stay with Lucas... I like him, he's pretty good guy for you!!! If he tries to mistreat you, just teach him a lesson or TWO! > Haha, well best of luck in your life endeavors!!! -generic heart shape- you, Anna.

Jet: Fool! You've been messing with me lately, haha. BUT! I have so much to say... You're really AWESOME admin and friend I've had, besides Lewis, on ID and DR. You're soooo funny and very active in the past, but I know you've been busy lately due to some new life changes you've been going through. I remember when I made that technique with "Jet" in it, you were all excited because I named it "Jet" which was your nickname, haha. Well, hope you don't mess up in your life, but I DO hope you will success in your life's endeavors... -generic heart shape- and miss you, Germain.

Flying Muffin: Wow... what should I say? You're really good, because you're a muffin. ;D Jkjk, haha. But, no... all in seriousness, you're really epic and awesome admin. I'm glad to have you on my team. You're really good at finding the bugs, so I have you to thank for the fixes and updates DR has been undergoing for a while. I hope you'll become famous on some sort of running team and I hope you'll get better from that injuries you've received from them. You've contributed so much to DR, both of updates and on the forums. Thank you very much! Hope things will improve and I wish you of the best luck on your endeavors, Chris.

Scarface: Wow, you may be annoying - but, in other hand, you're really awesome person. You understand what is right and wrong, and I like that about you. I loved the time where we were playing GoW(Gears of War) online and I kept dying, haha... you were pwning everyone. It was really fun, but I hope you'll find something to do and I might be on 360 at some points of my life. Don't let anyone pwn you or I'ma pwn you!!! > <3 you, Michael.

Executer: Well, I know we have limited time and we didn't talk a lot often, but I know that you're a good admin because you've been helping on that game with Lewis, so that's why I hired you. I hope things are going well for you and I wish you of the best luck on your life's endeavors!!!

Nikku and Apollo: This is toward to both of you guys, since you live closeby to each others, so no need to create duplication of this message. Nikku, you may be black - but, that doesn't mean you can't be an admin. You're really nice, understanding, funny, smart, annoying and crazy as well! You have good personality and I respect that. You're really energetic as well, but I hope you don't waste that... just do what you want to do in your life and do that. Focus on what you want and it'll come true. Apollo, you're really good admin. You've matured ever since we made you an admin. I'd say the same about the latter of what I told Nikku. Best of wishes on both of your life's endeavors.

To the rest of players: I thank you for being loyal to DR and I wish you best of luck in your life's endeavors. Don't let anyone put you down or talk you down. Keep pushing, keep believing in what you want and it'll eventually come true.

I'm really sorry that DR has discontinued, but I'm glad I've made good friends and I've learned a lot from people I've encountered over time on DR. Thank you, guys and gals!!! I love you all!

I'll be on facebook and msn occasionally, which will be listed below of this comment. I'll always cherish these memories and I'll NEVER forget of what has happened and the people I've encountered/worked with over time on DR.

Good bye and greatest/kindest regards,

So is it gone forever?

[BouncierSlinky]

The niceness of these posts is rather overwhelming.. I damn near shed a tear.
(In before wuss) fuck you too..

There are some of the people from DR that I will hopefully keep in contact with, those people know who they are.. (basically whoever already has my information..) to the others who don't, it was a fun a time had by all, and it's really shitty it had to end the way it did..

Razor, if you don't bring back the game, or you don't decide to continue our limited conversations we've had lately, then I wish you the best in all your future endeavours.. you're a good guy and you deserve only the best..

Azzy, I'm assuming we'll keep in contact, and I really look forward to that. You're a funny fucker.
(Izrael is a gurl, hurr hurr caps aboose, SS.)

Code, we haven't spoken much in a while outside of the game itself. You also gave me incredible advice when it comes to iconning, or as you do "pixel art". I intend on getting Dark Souls if you still have a hard on for that game, we should play.. or play anything else for that matter o-O.. I know there are some things we are capable of playing that shouldn't be excruciatingly boring. xP (still have a screenie of you, Anna, and I sitting underneath a green rainbow with some huge ass welsh word posted beneath it. Fun times.

Jet, we didn't converse much, but when we did I enjoyed our time together, always a pleasure, if you want, add me on msn or whatever (if you want my email I'll give it to you).

Anna, not too worried about this one, since we usually spoke more outside the game anyways, regardless, we've had our random ups and downs, and I hope all goes well with you and Lucas. (He is also a funny fucker)... also... Ruffles is a demonic fucker!

Tac, dude, we had some good times in the short while I knew you on the game. You have my MSN, hit me up.

Scarface.. you'll probably never read this, as I doubt you even ever used the forum, but we DEFINITELY talk more outside the game than inside. Hopefully that continues, we've had good times.

Exe, do you even come on anymore? xD You've also got my msn, even though you don't seem to be on it much. I'll try sending you a message next time I see you.

Nikku, never took that break that we spoke about, eh? Shoulda done it. Honestly, at this point I don't think that either of us was the Meg. It was just the outlook we had at the time. We both conversed with generally the same people, so.. how about that? You've got me on Facebook. Talk to you later.

Apollo.. I don't have much to say on this one, as you weren't really on much unless Nikku was on, and in that case you were generally just talking to each other. It wasn't that I tried to get you fired, it was more that I was questioning your place in an attempt to get you to be more active as an admin. Nikku has my Facebook, if you want to send me a message, go for it.

As far as non-admins go, the only one I disliked was Jason.
Fuck you Jason. ^-^ (oh yeah.. and Dante. Fuck you Dante, you powerhungry, controlling motherfucker. > .. the Anna is God icon was just flat out creepy. >->)
WANDERER SHALL NOW HAVE A LIFE THAT DR IS GONE.
HURR HURR HURR. :3

If I missed anyone, then damn, I'm sorry. It's really hard to be nice to everyone. God damn. D<

If this really is goodbye,
Farewell and good luck.

Awwwwww, what game shall I play now? This was the only game I actually wanted to play, and now, there won't be a game to play,

[apollo]

I shall neva forget you Maik/Amdy/Aragorn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tillannook]

I never go to the forums really, I kinda create an account and troll (As in watch them for updates, e.t.c.) But, I seen it was down, so I guess i'll type this message. Dragonball Dark Renegade was one of the most balanced/worked on games i've seen on byond. I could see when I started about... 2 years ago that the people who we're working on it didn't treat it as some backwater project, they actually cared. Which if you ask me is the thing that made this game good, well I guess it's goodbye time <3. Dante: Well, I don't really have anything nice to say. Just, no offence but please keep your problems to yourself, talking about people commiting suicide/killing/e.t.c. cause, it ruins the gaming community. Olgenson: Haha, me and you had the best CTF defence ever! You we're about 60% of the defence to be honest XD I remember us claiming countless matches of CTF due to getting the flag once then just going on the defensive. Tacoon: You really steered me in the right direction, I remember when I applied for admin and kept getting little things wrong XD And you helped me fix them, not only that your one of the funniest/smartest people i've met on byond. You also talked with me about some serious things in the past, and i'm glad you we're there for me. Code: Hammers f.t.w.? Well, you... the "Sheep fuckeror" you are a very funny person, and your icons are great! Although, how you used to regurgitate wikipedia (Constant links to wikipedia) got annoying to be honest. But, other than that, your funny and a good friend. Apollo: We we're never really on at the same time much, but when we we're you we're a very helpful person (Helping me find things out, e.t.c.). Well, I guess I'll miss Dark Renegade, and I hope it springs up again, but until then. I'll check on it every now and then, but other than that... I guess i'm quitting BYOND for now, unless I find some other good game (Good luck). Well, if anyone needs to speak to me, My Skype: [e-mail]
My Emails (I has lots D:): [e-mail],
[e-mail]
[e-mail] <--- Message me on that one please <3
E.t.c., countless I've forgotten (I use lots for games <3)
Skype Name for if you dont want to type Dxxsquire XD This isnt much better. Rehx Versades is my skype name <3 Well. I hope this game springs up (Did I say this? Retarded durr durr repetitive speech) And there are other people I probably forgot, but... sorry for this. Cant think right now I guess, to shocked. I just want to know, why WAS it discontinued?!

[naomath]

im going to miss this game, it was so addicting and of couse all the awesome people who played it too.

I do not have your msn sir :S

eh, since we're all doing this touchy-feely stuff I think I'll hop on the bandwagon.

Alex (who gets first on my specific-goodbye list though I wasn't mentioned in his D:<), you're great man. You're honestly probably my best friend I've ever had online. It feels like I've known you, in person, for years now. In reality, it's only been truly a little matter of time since I've met you. For some reason we just became cool friends, quickly. We'd have long ass talks on MSN about just about anything. I really appreciate the time we spent just TALKING. You were always an open ear for ideas and a person to bounce thoughts with. Honestly, I don't know how we even made it this far. We've had many fights and we've both went our seperate ways many times. I guess I can say I'm glad it's ending on these (not bad) terms? In short, thanks Razor. For being the shit. Do me a favor and hop on MSN ONCE in a while.

Code is a fool. I've always heard people go goo-goo-gaga over "Lewis", but I never had met him. Once I did, I realized how fucking psychopathic you really are . Shits and giggles aside, you're a pretty straight fellow. We've got similar tastes in humor and wit (or so it seemed), and even when it was just me and you as the only admins online you seemed to make shit interesting. I cannot convey my thanks for the laughs, honestly.

Azrael "Money Bags" Nestor, you're a cool ass guy. At times you just have an aura of confidence, one I've never really seen conveyed through text in such a way. You've got real cool stories to tell from your own personal life, and I enjoyed that. I know you're going to enjoy your life as it seems to already be going really well for you.

Muffin, you were honestly the most level headed of all of the administrators, and probably one of my best "friends" of the admin team. I only couldn't ever read past the fact that you were just indifferent to situations. (I mean even if you couldve been pissed like no tomorrow, it was never noticable by the way you acted). You have this really friendly disposition, and even when you're pulling someone's leg, you make it seem so harmless. If you're anything in real life like you were in game, I know you've got it made. You're obviously athletic, but such a nice guy. I hope you working your ass off pays off for you man, because I believe you deserve it.

Anna, you were unconditionally nice. Like Muffin, you were just calm, cool, and collected no matter what. It seemed even if you didnt agree with something, you just took it in stride and didn't make a scene about it. Thanks for being so great to talk to, and good luck with Lucas. Oh, and run Runescape too, haha.

Slinky, I pretty much have to say the same thing about you as you did for me. You were a pretty swell guy, who even you were pissed, you were approachable and good to talk to. I added you on MSN through forum stalking, btw

Nikku, you dirty porch monkey nice little guy. You were one of the most dedicated admins when you were in your prime. You seemed to kind of have burned out, but that's to be expected with how much time and energy you poured into the game. I really have respect for how much you DID do for the game. You probably have thought that I believe you to be incompetent as an administrator, but it's really the opposite. At times, I'd honestly see myself in you (cliche as fuck.). You reminded me of how I was when I started out administrating games on BYOND. You've got more than potential, you've got talent. Whether you keep using that talent for BYOND games or apply it to other, real life applications, is on you.

Apollo, I don't have much to say about you, guy. Honestly, we were cool but never that close. You were funny to talk to and watching you and Nikku talk about shoes was quite amusing to me. I just want you to know I never had it in for you; I fucked with you like I fucked with Nikku. Thanks for being a dedicated admin, as with Nikku. You two worked great as a team. Add me on MSN, man ([e-mail])

Jet, we used to be close, man. Back in the day we used to shoot the shit daily, you crazy German pothead. I can't honestly recall many stories RIGHT HERE, but I'm sure you and I both recall the MANY laughs and great times we had on the game together. I'll honestly miss you. You narcissism and complete assholery is something I do wish I had more in my life. Thank you especially for being a cool friend.

Scar, I don't really know you :S. you seemed swell enough, especially judging by other's words of you.

Exe, you sauced bastard. I know you're 99% never going to read this, but I'd at least like to have solace knowing that if you do come across this it's there for you to read... I appreciated your English point of view on things. It was always interesting to have conversations with you, whether you were drunk under the table or not. You had funny as fuck stories to tell, and always had one to top out my stories. I hope you have a long and fulfilling life, man (I MEAN QUIT PARTYING SO DAMN HARD XD)

Rehx, since you were cool enough to mention me in your post, I guess I'll talk about you to. You seemed like a pretty cool kid (though you're probably pretty close to age with me...). You had aspirations of being admin, and honestly you were the best applicant as of when the game shut down. With a little bit of time, you could've been one of the top/best administators. You had a little bit of a sharp tongue, but you could use it the right way. I hope you have a great time in your life, no matter what you're doing. Have a good one, bro.

I've always really enjoyed my time on Dark Renegade. Even with all the bullshit and drama, it always seemed to just be "glued" back together. No matter what, through trial and tribulation, the game would survive and it's regulars would do the same. This is why I loved this game and I love you guys.

If someone were to dissapear for 6 months and make a sudden return, you would welcome them with open arms, embrace, and hospitality. At times it can feel like I actually know some of you guys, despite that I'll probably never meet any of you.

Thank you for the companionship, the laughs, the suspense, and most of all, the fun. If I could go back and change the way I spent all of my time playing this game, I wouldn't. It was like no other BYOND experience and probably my greatest gaming experience overall.


I guess it's just time to move on. BYOND has ran its course with me, as it has multiple times. Now's a good time as ever to sever ties and do something more productive, right? -shrugs-

I truly do wish that all of you go on with your lives and have a great time and do so to your fullest extent. Specifically the players who are clammering for the game to be revived; please, rejoice that the game is done. We've all had plenty of fun times and stories to tell, FROM A DBZ GAME. Let's just embrace the times we had and move on.

With the sincerest goodbye and best wishes,

Tacoon
