I'm finding this hard to write, just because it's hard to figure out where to begin.. I got swept up in the drama that became SYG only to have what was promised to the rest of us foolish enough to go over one day to be gone? That sums it up pretty nicely. My leader Swifty who was and I'm sorry to say it because it's true at the time was the first real section leader I had came to me telling me that she was leaving XGC along with all those I respected along the ranks and it's not saying I don't respect those in higher leadership here its saying those that I've had dealings with and built a relationship (friendship wise) with were suddenly branching off and leaving. These leaders were Ethanol, Exile, Swifty, Fvalis, and others that I have grown close to and looked up to.
Honestly I was afraid to go back to being in a lack for better words "stranded" on our own little xgc infinity island which had happened to us before. After months of no active XS and finally getting one only to lose her it bothered me were I at the time felt the leadership here was weak or didn't possibly care about our clan, after all we are Halo and besides XGC Basic there wasn't many other clans that played Halo, I'm not even sure if there are more today that do as I haven't stayed in the loop.
As for poaching, I told my guys what was going that I (as well as other leadership they knew, ie swifty, exile etc) was leaving. I told them that I was leaving and they were welcome to come along if they wanted to, however the choice was up to them. My guys are pretty tight, we play together, we have a great time together.. It was often joked that we XGC Infinity was filled with clowns and we were. We had a good time, we recruited good fun loving people and some of my favorite memories are founded here in XGC.
I made a mistake. I left and I joined SYG following friends.. some of whom I don't even talk to anymore which is a real shame, not only did I learn the grass isn't always greener but friendships mixed with power doesn't always phase out well and I lost a lot of good friends because of SYG which is sad. I know there is one or two that came back to XGC stating some things and there are always two sides of each story and I wish I was here to defend myself at the time but that isn't always the case.
I just hope that perhaps you all will consider giving me another chance. A lot has changed in my life in the last year and I've grown up quite a bit. I'm not looking for rank, I just want to game again within the community, because trust me I did look into the other communities and it's obvious XGC is superior.
Even if I am denied which I hope not, I do wish you all the best and will respect the outcome.
