Stepping down
By ArSeNaLfAn32 on 30/06/2009
As you've noticed the last two months, I've turned into more and more of a ghost. I, without realizing, made some social transition. I went from the shy kid who loved being at home a significant amount of time to just relax and play video games on the computer to the kid who always wants to be doing something with someone. The only time I'm even on the computer is at late night PST hours. (11pm - 2 am) I've missed the last three mega raids, if not more. I haven't had the time to make events because I cannot commit to anything.
Mentally, I have been past RuneScape for a long time. The only times I really log on are to DM (and lose) against Eve from TDM. I maxed out mid-way through the school year and any in game progress ended there. Since then I just stuck to raiding, etc. Once summer hit, I was out of the house so much I missed all events. I haven't been to a skill event in over 6 weeks. I haven't been to a mega raid in a month. I haven't done council work like accepting an app for over a month. I barely take part in any of our decisions as Staff and Council. I haven't arranged a war in forever.
My daily agenda is me waking up at noon to either two or three missed calls from my best friend Liam, or a text from Natalie or Helen (my gf) asking if I want to hang. If none of them talk to me, I ask my skating friends if they wanna do anything or I ask if my band can do band practice that day. I am busy all day every day during the summer. Somehow I became the "popular kid" without trying. I would be lying if I said I didn't absolutely love it. Sometimes my friends are already at my house when I wake up. I don't care cause my parents are at work, so they can't stop them, and I really don't mind. I just can't make time to commit myself to a prepped raid etc. that I would lead or attend.
I'll cut to the chase. I am stepping down from Warlord. I wish to take on the Emeritus position, as I think I'm too inactive to commit to Elite Guardian. I'll keep membership for the rest of the summer for when I can make raids and fights. I'll stay on the SMS system and read forums every night to see what's coming up. I want to stay in the heart of this clan. I truly love and respect you guys. It would be an abuse of my duty as Council to continue to hold my spot.
I joined WG in August 2007. Mustangred1 recruited me.

Props to Cody for doing that. It was the best thing in RuneScape that ever happened to me. It took me three months to go from Trial Guardian to Guardian. Snowzak rid my ass for over a month telling me I "HAD TO GRADUATE OR I WAS GONNA GET RAPED!!!" <3 to you forever man haha. I'm sorry for being an ass.
That December (or January or February I forget) DZ harassed me into applying for Raid Leader. By Pminogue and School Boy19 dropping out, I was awarded Raid Leader. From there I was Raid Leader til about Fall '08. Then a Warlord position opened up, and I ran against Mugger84. We tied.

I've been Council since and I've been very happy. (And very fucking lazy lmao)
I love you guys all to death. I hope to always be part of this community. Maybe in the Fall I can become a Guardian again.

Love you.

Your still a stale cherio eating chicken. Bwuck.
Seriously you will be missed. You are without a doubt one of the best raid leaders we've had in WG. At least to me. Certainly the most fun. Not a surprise you are very popular outside of rs and irl.
You should definiately hang around in some form. Who knows maybe one day you might have urge to play again. Or to come to a raid and maybe lead one. Whatever the case may be you will always be welcomed here as a warm friend

<333 many more stale cherios

It has been great talking to you over the past few months with your transition into real life, and I hope we can continue these conversations.
I enjoyed every raid that you led, and maybe you can get one more under your belt to finish it off strong. We are on our way up, and it takes a lot for you to make the move and step down from a position that you held. You did great man, and I really appreciate everything that you have done for the clan while I have been here, but also me, as I joined WG hating combat, and now I don't mind the occasional raid.
Enjoy it on emeritus. Keep talking to me.
Best of luck in the real life.
By rachellove9 on 30/06/2009
Love you Glenn. You have been a good friend to me. All the time I would complain to you about Muggers and you just let me rant. I have to love you forever for that. If they would of look you over for warlord and gave it to only him, I would of left the same day. lol Look how things all work out.
I'll be trolling with you soon.

Nah but seriously Glenn. I'm gonna miss you. One of greatest friends in WG (even though you were inactive lulz), and just. Yeah. I dunno what to say. I'm just glad you're staying as a part of the community.
WAIT FUCK
THIS MAKES GEORGE FUCKING SECOND IN COMMAND
By Mickey on 30/06/2009
Shame to see you step down Glenn. You were a good fall in leader/warlord when I was WG. Good luck IRL.

it seems like yesterday i was banned from zdzira. without a doubt i owe you some thanks cuz you where the one that helped me transition into wg. you're right about being inactive but at least now you're going to become an emeritus. so it isn't good bye per say =D
good luck in all your endeavours. thank you
By Chimpy on 30/06/2009
Aw Glennfase :<
You were one of mi best frands and a great leader. Cya, have fun irl, you'll be missed :<
By Indivi2you on 30/06/2009
Glenn,
Ohh Glenn... The times that we've had will never be forgotten. From the beginning when you first joined to now. You've been a great friend, one of my best friends here in WG. The inactivity kicked in and we lost touch, but when you came to those raids and led us i enjoyed it much. You led us to some great victories in battle. You'll be missed bro, I'm glad your RL turned around to favor you.
Take care, have fun, and when you get back I'll still be around(ffs)

By DZ on 30/06/2009
Oh man I saw you posting in this forum before I went to bed, I was really hoping it wasn't going to be this :<
Well Glenn, it was great to get to meet you. I still consider myself as the one who "made you what you are" (not like I taught you much) but I can remember how I was pushing and pushing you to try out for raid leader, you did, and look where that ended up bringing you in the long run.
I always appreciated your sense of humour, even sometimes when I thought you should be a bit more serious, I knew you had the right intentions for the clan.
I hope you enjoy life to the fullest, teen years are arguably the best years of your life so go out and enjoy it. Good luck man.
By Back to Own on 30/06/2009
Really sad to see you step down Glenn. You were one of my closest friends in WG. I depended on you so much

. Had a feeling this was coming for a very long time. Glennfase + Bto = awesome combination

(DZ iz 2 smeli).
It was really great to know you both as a fellow clans member and a friend. I remember yelling at you for ragging in your early days

. I've seen the transformation that your real life has taken and I'm really happy for you. ILU Glennfase, pls visit often
fgt.
By Ansatsublade on 30/06/2009
Sad seeing you leave... must sound like a hypocrite now but still. I still remember you running around the clan war arena in a chicken suit, with several people behind you using ranged... Epic. Best of luck my friend, keep in touch?
By Onathe on 30/06/2009
I don't know what to say, as i came along when you was always out, spoke to you a few times and you seems like a really nice guy, and i hope you have a great summer doing what alot of us should be doing;)
But yeah see you around mate have a great summer!
By Bambaleo on 30/06/2009
dayum
bye bye
By Gusmighster on 30/06/2009
Glenn has to be one of the best leaders I have raided under, but you were also an amazing person who got on with everyone. It's great to see you enjoying life and I can see why you have become the popular guy! :]
Much love
EMERITUS ARE HOT
By JC on 30/06/2009
I'm really glad you held off to a time where Wg has a strong enough council for you to step down as I know you havent really been enjoying, or caring for the council/warlord role for a long time

It's good that you're sticking around as emeritus so I can always hassle you if need be

Cya Glenn.
By Winddancir on 30/06/2009
I know where you live. I will hunt you down and force you to play rs.
By Stokenut on 30/06/2009
Sorry to see you going Glenn, you did well as a leader.
By txtawkin on 01/07/2009
Okay, so maybe you were NH, and maybe you did sacrifice a pitiful little trial guardian (me) so you could be the last one standing in the war.......you really weren't all bad.......
Seriously, even I will miss having you around. I will miss your wit and irreverent attitude and even occasionally getting kicked out of IRC by you.
Good luck in all that you wish to achieve in your life Glenn. Yes, you will be missed by many.
By Sithofwookie on 01/07/2009
Glenn you are a great guy, tell me what real life is like sometime. Later and may the

be with you at all times.
By Olivier1o1 on 01/07/2009
Glenn, I'm the same way =O Or trying to be at least.
Hope you have better luck than I do!
By Kwaichi on 01/07/2009
at least you are never bored IRL
have a lot of fun with friends during summer, scoop up a lot of fresh energy, dont hurt yourself on a skateboard; see you again in a fall
By Jayson on 01/07/2009
seen this coming for awhile now.
you were a great leader, but you cant have a life and be any leaders of any clan.
enjoy your life bro
By God Reports on 01/07/2009
Goodbye, thank you for fixing the problem iinstead of leaving like so many have done before. You were a good member
By Renegade3540 on 01/07/2009
Congratulations on your new found life.

Best of luck in the future. I suggest that you cut all contact with Gene though. Would suck to have him on your doorstep one day with a bottle of lube in his hand and ready to go.
By Samurai-JM on 01/07/2009
welcome to life nub

if u guys didn't notice i've been doin pretty much the same. I see steve has taken up the trolling pretty well xD
By Quikdrawjoe on 01/07/2009
That's Mr. Glennfase to you.
By al0ysia pk on 02/07/2009
is this becuz i is bla.... erm joined WG?
By Abmanju on 09/07/2009
Glenn, you are one of the most energetic people I have met, and that energy greatly affected the rest of the Council & clan.
You added humour to everything and you went to many extremes to bond with your clan mates. Raiding with you was always unpredictable and every turn had something new to it. You are a wonderful person & I would have loved to meet you IRL.
I love you, Council & Wg will never ever be the same without you & that energy, so, keep in contact, and I'm sure with your personality, you'll get far with your new life.
Good Luck mate <3333333333

Go live life man. You've done a great job and brought a new life to the clan. It'll be a shame to see you step down. But as long as you keep popping in, its all good

See you around glenn
