It's been a long time since I came back to this wiki, to be honest. I haven't really paid attention to all the changes, but recently I've been going through the PGW pages and they're really impressive. Good work, JustLeafy.

I created this account at the start when this wiki was in the 'moderate not so advanced stage', I guess. There were a lot of article stubs, but it was fun talking to others on the wiki and comparing ideas and whatnot. Now the wiki is in probably the "Peak" stage, and I'm really, really impressed with the hard work and effort you put into this wiki.

What is kinda sad is that the staff is kinda reduced to the semi-skeleton state, because the others have been inactive or retired. When I joined the wiki, I was happy to be part of such a large, bustling, energetic site, full of wonder, ideas, and imagination. Talking with others on the wiki as well as comparing strategies, weapons, armor, and skills was really what made me decide to join in the first place. It was wonderful to be part of such a community, and I'm honored to have been given the chance. Even though there weren't a lot of 'quality' articles, it was still fun to try and refine them into true 'quality' articles.

The staff members/former staff members were all really kind and open minded about almost everything. That includes you, by the way. They didn't go immediately into crackdown everything and make sure everything is according to line straight rules mode; instead, they let me try out things and corrected them kindly through trial and error. It was the bond of master and student, it was wonderful. I saw myself give minor to moderate activity around the wiki; like everyone else, I was there to learn how to improve in my skills and what guns to get and what not to get.

And it really helped. Half a year after joining this wiki, I had been invited to one of the top 100 clans in PG3D; the clan leader and other members had been impressed with my skills(which I learned from this wiki, btw) and so they had taken it to personally send a message to invite me to their clan. It was amazing being in such a small clan(10-20 members) while somehow being in the top 100 clans of PG3D. It's this wiki I have to thank. Our clan was in 28th to around 21st place at its peak. I wholeheartedly believe that it's this wiki that I should thank.

Truth be told, I retired from playing Pixel Gun around a year ago. It wasn't that I grew out of it; the problem was that all the new updates, weapons, and strategies had overtaken what used to be just pure skill solving the problem, I guess. I had been with the game since update 7.00.00, so I couldn't adapt fast enough. It's actually quite frustrating when you've been in the game longer than most of the scrubs and yet they still somehow have the shiny weapon that you dont and beat you with it. The clan I had been invited to was disbanded; I went back to being a skilled veteran loner, always playing solo. Then after that, I decided to retire from the game completely, after around 11.00.00 to 12.00.00. There were too many updates, ones I couldn't handle with the scrubs beating me up every time I stepped in to the field.

This is most likely the last time I'll ever be here in this wiki talking or writing. I've seen the rise and fall of my own legacy; I been through it. And I know this wikia will flourish in your hands. There is no longer a time that us old veterans can fight fully and win in the field of PG3D ever again. I am truly sad about that.

I'm pretty sure that you'll do a great job taking care of the wiki for the rest of time until your successor or protege or apprentice or student comes along and you retire/go inactive with a history breaking record. Good luck and goodbye, I guess.
