I'd like to start off to basically saying that I had some reflection time. You can skip this story if you'd like, It is basically just what had happened through our past to present through my eyes. 


My reflection starts back when I was a member..

     Even at my earliest times in World of Minecraft, i remember the staff being kind and helpful to me. Sadly, exactly who it was escapes me. But i do remember that a few days before my moderation, one of the archs did a fill for my castle.


Then I remembered my days as a mod..

     It was a rocky start, one of my first days we had a mass griefing during a game of lava arena. After the game was over, the higher ups left and I had no undo. So me and a band of members went to work repairing the grief. Again sadly, their names escape me. Not long after, I was promoted.


Soon, my head was filled with regret as I remembered my first days as admin..

     At first, all was well. I did my job. I didn't goof off. But later on I got cocky. I started demoting without warning, promoting without consulting others, I was on a fast track to a very bad place. I was losing respect, and gaining fear. I was disliked by others for my superior, pompous attitude. Luckily, BoHiCa saw how cocky i was getting and demoted me to mod. It was probably the best thing to happen to me in my "career" as staff.


After, I saw how unready I was for admin, and how much I still needed to be a mod..

     Oddly, i was very happy with my mod. Probably the only admin who would have been happy with being demoted. I slowly regained my friends. I became more of a team player. And this was recognized by the higher ups. And I still believe that my mess ups were one of the reasons for the OP rank being created.


While fearing i would not be able to handle it, I graciously accepted my promotion to OP..

     Thankfully, my run as OP went splendid. I was still humble. I still had the respect of my peers. It was then I became confident in my abilities again. But not over confident. It was even pretty fun being this new rank which few people had. Although in all truth, I did miss admin.


Then out of the blue, (or yellow should I say) I was re-promoted to admin..

     With my power restored, and my ego destroyed, I finally felt like my place was just. I was very happy with my position. I couldn't possibly imagine being any happier. 

Which finally, brings me to today. My promotion to exec..

    Now this is where you need to read. I have made some very obvious mistakes in my time with you all. And I know the mistakes won't stop with a new name color (they sure as hell wont be big like before though). So I thank you, for not only forgiving my mistakes before. But for giving me a second chance to prove my worth. You gave me a benefit of the doubt that I may not even have deserved. So thank you World of Minecraft staff. Thanks for the trust, the fun, the server, the contests, the love. The everything. Seriously, you guys rock.

          Love, forever and always,
