Tai on vethood

congrats to Tai Kamiya on vet-hood..

Tai was one of the (if not THE) first AFW moderators on one of the older versions of the AFW board way back possibly around 2006 or so (can't remember as each of the boards got deleted -_- ). So by default should receive this status as a retired moderator...

Since then he has remained as one of the longest active AFW members, given advice and come up with ideas where he can to further his claim to being a veteran.

Yay Ugly Betty! I mean Tai!

WARNING: The following is a rather sappy Acadamy Award style speech......and at the risk of losing my man card, I was tearing up slightly when typing this.

All kidding aside, Thank you Kelsea for this upgrade. Id like to thank the Moderators, just in case they had input on this decision. Id like to thank Kelsea for not banning me after my several half hearted takeover attempts, I assure you they will stop. Id Like to thank Charyui, though he does not party with us anymore, he got me into AFW, was my first opponent, and helped me learn my craft. Id like to also personally thank Yatori, Ive known him longer then anyone else currently on AFW and I consider him to be one of my closest friends. Id also like to mention and thank ZXN, Talimaya, Valen, Egge, and Anemaul, for being good friends and allowing me to RP in several great matches with all of you, I learned alot from you guys.

Id like to thank The Goddamned Batman....cause he's awesome.

Finally, I want to thank everyone in AFW over the last 7 years, thank you very much for putting up with me for so long. ...


I love you guys...



Ive been with AFW for 7 years now, and while Ive had my small sabaticals here and there, Ive always come back to this place.
This is gonna sound pathetic I suppose, but truth be told, with the exeption of my fellow band members, I dont have any friends in the real world, Ive always been rather shy I guess, and find it hard to interact with people. But here, I can just be myself and not worry about being judged. Ive made alot of friends here, some of them I even consider to be close friends, and over time this place has become very special to me.

So while the Veteran status is basically a purple color added to my name, For me be acknowledged for my contributions and years of service like this....to me it just feels so good...

So thank you and heres to more years at AFW!

CAN I BE GREEN AFTER ANOTHER NAME CHANGE?

Well done, I too dream of having my username a different colour

Congrats!

Finally you get the recognition you deserve...as in...being ...like...old...and stuff.

Enjoy your purpleness!
