Our Views of the world and how it works may not be the same. but you'll always be a good friend of mine dude. I wish you the best in your future endeavors and maybe if i'm ever in DC again we'll grab a drink(might be soon you may never know). Over the years helping you make xpoff what it is has been a pleasure and i will continue to do so under @Ripduck . Later on Conqy Boy.

Alex honestly you're one of the best friends I've made here, you are so down to earth, as a young twink I knew who you were, it's crazy that we've become friends, and even if I'm not active in the community I know we will stay in contact.
 
Thank you for all the effort you put into the site over the years Conq! Also for helping me with all the arena and bg tounaments we did over the years!

Wouldn’t of ran as smooth or been as entertaining to watch without Blackout/Lindenkron and yourself.

Change is always nessesary in life, keeps you from going stagnant and helps you grow!

Congratulations to Ripduck!!!

Should be exiting times ahead! Feeling exited to see what’s in store for this site and the twinking community in the future!!!

My Watch Has Ended


Hey everyone, I’m writing to you today with a lot on my mind so please note that reading forward. As the title says, to be clear: I’ve sold what part of XPOFF I owned for a modest sum which allowed me to recoup my financial investment, it is “said and done” as it were and time for me to move on.


I decided it was time to move on for a lot of reasons, and in retrospect I perhaps should have done it sooner. I don’t play WoW anymore and having turned 25 and then moving hundreds of miles from my home town, with my own apartment in Washington D.C. I find myself preoccupied much of the time, with my interests elsewhere. For those curious i’m attending a local hacker space where i’m learning about 3D printers, CRISPR, and technology in general. It’s called Hacdc.


I’m also helping host Overwatch League viewing parties and other stuff in the near future with The D.C. Area Esports Club. I’ll be staffing a convention called “Universal FanCon” in Baltimore at the end of the month and I’m also working in an unofficial capacity for a major esports company with local interests, as well as making friends and working various side jobs, if you are in the area feel free to reach out to me if you want to get involved!


On to the essence of this post, my part of the website has been sold to @Ripduck. Ducky is a avid community organizer, patron, and leader, he’s working on a brand new stats based project tied to XPOFF which will have a new arena ladder likely integrated.


He also plans to upgrade to XF2 so the website will have a whole new and improved look as well as a ton of really great new features, he is also someone who is more interested in twinks than myself, with these - along with other elements, I am confident that he will be able to at the least take much better care of the website, and the community than I have been able to in a long time.


In regards to the staff much will hopefully stay the same with administrators and the rest of the staff, though I do anticipate a small period of transition where I will be pseudo-involved with the process.


In closing I want to thank everyone for the memories and lessons. Also I want to shout out all my friends and the people who have supported me and the community, as I’ve said in the past there are way too many people to thank for me to even begin, (we do need more community organizers now, just step up and you will get noticed, organize what you enjoy) the reality is I will remember everyone and the community as a whole probably until the day I die, even those of us who have not gotten along all the time.


My path here started with just twinking back in vanilla, evolved into premading, then eventually guild leading, guild uniting, community development, project management, and way more. For me this is incredible, and it has afforded me many further opportunities elsewhere in the world, so I will never forget my time here.


Much Love and Luck from me to the community,


Conq

Even though we’ve had our issues, I’ll never forget the day u gave me the opportunity to twink with GG19. Various times you gave me life tips, and gave me laughs.

You will be missed, Conq.
 
Ripduck!

Thanks for everything @Conq. People don’t and won’t give you the credit you deserve for running this children’s daycare.. forum with childish adults*.

Thanks for giving me a chance as a staff member to see what I could do.

Sure I’ll see you around though! ;)
 
Farewell, friend. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors and I'm looking forward to seeing what Ripduck can accomplish.

Keep in touch!
 
Good luck conq...although i joined late but im u have served the twink community well... Ripduck what a beast...he def gonna do well knowing how much he loves twinking! Hope to see you soon rip when u come back!!
 
Cya man. Glad to hear the site is in good hands and this isn’t one of those, “alright everyone, pack up your shyt and gtfo”
 
Hey Conq, I never really got to know you personally but I just wanted to say thank you for all of the events you helped organize.

The tourneys that I played in were some of the most fun I’ve had while twinking, it’s a shame that legion had to be so disappointing or else we would’ve probably had even more of them.

Best of luck to Ripduck and hopefully BFA will be great for the community.
