Hi. Some of you may know me, and most of you probably won't.
I'm Silver. I've been around here since Mid-February, 2012. In that time, a lot of things have changed. The Reborn League is long gone by now, and the game has taken over. Which, of course, is good. It's amazing to have watched something grow into the titan it is, after starting out so small. We've gone from a very small forum based around this server on Pokemon Online to a massive community, in what seems like very little time at all. I'd be lying if I said I knew more than maybe 30 people here at the most.
In June 2013, I beat the Reborn League, and that was honestly my highest point around here. I was surrounded with a bunch of people that I loved being around, and everything seemed perfect. But that's also around when the game hit a huge popularity spike, with Shofu. Hundreds of people flooded in, and our numbers skyrocketed. A lot of people were unfamiliar faces, and I honestly didn't get along with them. I still don't get along with a lot of them.
In January 2014, they made me a forum mod, and I'm eternally grateful that they gave me a chance. I was only 14 at the time, so I was kind of shocked. But, I'm afraid that time has come to it's end. Between growing discomfort with a large portion of people in the community, and my own lack of motivation brought on by personal problems, I've decided it's time for me to move on from trying to be someone big around here. I love this community dearly, but it's not the same as it used to be, and never quite will be again.
I don't really know what I'll do next, other than hang around. Shoutout to Amethyst for giving me the chance, but I don't feel it's worked.
It's time for me to move on. Not goodbye, but stepping down from mod position and not coming around as often.
