That's right, I'm quitting, and I'm going to try to make this as painless as possible by ending this quick and just tying up some final loose ends.

First off, why do I want to quit;
Plain and simply; this game is very time-consuming, especially when being an active leader. Highschool is on its way and I want to enjoy that to fullest, and also reap in some academic success. I'm also learning an instrument and maybe I'll even get back into basketball if I practice hard enough to get onto the team next year. I could stick around and balance all of this with leading, really, I could. But I'm not going to, because that would require splitting my efforts and not getting the best out of myself in anything I'm doing. It all comes down to what I find most important, and of course that has to be life. I have a life, and I'm going to cut myself off from this game early enough to fully enjoy highschool; socially and academically. It's as simple as that.

ORKz;
The Green Tide is something I've been leading for 4 months now, the 26th of September would've made that 5 months. During that time I was literally gathering funds alone, recruiting alone, hosting raids alone, getting development done alone, working out diplomacy alone, and basically anything else needed to run a successful clan; I did it. I was basically Head of all of the departments, not just Warfare. After all, for 75% of the time I was the only person who could shout, and even now I am the one hosting most of the events and running everything else. After all the work I put into it, I have to say that it was an absolute pleasurable ride along the way, and ORKz has seen vast growth and improvements. We've defeated many notable clans at countless raids and defenses, and we've warred whoever we've pleased and steamrolled the few that would accept.

Many people would like to suggest that The Green Tide is a hype clan, but is it really? We've been going strong for 4 months already now and there are no signs of us slowing down; all of my past events have come out with a 20+ attendance. (I'm serious!). We never had the instability or incompetence of any hype clan that has failed in the past. I went into leadership knowing what my goals were, knowing that I would never give up if things did start to turn for the worst, and knowing that I would prove that I could succeed massively here. Honestly, I think I have proven myself as a leader. ORKz has grown this much, made some very important allies, and is now on the Top 10 list of many people. It is not 'dying' in the slightest, in fact even today it is very much alive. I could continue leading it if I wanted to, but like I said I refuse to do that in benefit of what's truly important.

ORKz was my final memento to the clan world, I will not be handing it down. I may not be able to prove it since I'm leaving, but just know this; I could have taken this even further, I could not have stopped until I got to the very top. ORKz will be shutdown, and with it I fear a lot of well-needed controversy and war-minded banter will leave C&G with less excitement than it deserves. That's all I wanted with ORKz; something that V O I D was not when I was in it. A clan that I could not only exile and do whatever I wanted as I saw fit, but something to just spit flames and insults and taunts as much as possible on C&G, to anybody at any time. The Green Tide will hopefully be remembered as the first Ork clan to hit the major-scene here and also to breach the pinnacle of war clans, but maybe its legacy will make sure that it won't be the last. Orks are a very potent race to base a clan on, regardless of their unconventional way of performing. I strongly believe that Orks could be on the same level of infamy as Vaktovians or Locusts, we had it in us. Never forget that.

Final things (I'll list these);
-TGI is still unfortunately bad but consider yourselves lucky one of your prime oppressors is now gone losers xD
For real though, I hope you see this as the loss of an extremely prominent rival, something to drive you guys to fight harder and progress further in defiance of. You'll find someone else like us - maybe.

-Dreygonborn was paid $30 worth of BC to build me a rally place MONTHS ago, and has constantly BSed me along the way about why he had not finished it yet, and promised to start working on it again but never did. I tried hard not to; but I really do resent him for this. I was very generous in my payment and I did not even get a single place done, and I was NOTHING but patient after all this time.

-Seviro I'm sorry I've been taking a while to give you a BC card, I've never had a chance to go buy one but I could give you all the money I have on me (86k tix), if that's worth something to you.

-12gooroo12 I'm awfully sorry about getting you to make that STUNNING ORKz base that never saw the heat of battle. In return for your hard work, I'll be leaving you with my Sinister King. You've been nothing but helpful, you OFFERED to build that base for me, and you built it fast and without tire. You're an extremely competent developer and it was a relief having you build for us.

-ORKz I know this will come as a huge surprise, but I had to do what was right for myself. You are all an AMAZING bunch, many of you've stuck by me all this time and even more of you are our countless new faces. You will be my legacy here, and something that could've grown to an even more formidable state. Under me, you guys were the finest war clan an ex-Locust could ask for. (WE HAVE NEVER EVEN USED A TEAMSPEAK FOR OUR OPERATIONS, IT'S ALL CHAT BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY)

-RAT I am dreadfully sorry that this alliance was so short-lived. You are all an AMAZING bunch of capable individuals, and you were nothing but friendly and encouraging all this time. At least we got to raid JC and TGI in 2 servers each together, and outright destroyed. This alliance could've become so much more, but you have to forgive me about my decision. You are everything an ally could ask for; thank you doesn't even cut it.

-DystraTala you are an amazing leader. Headstrong, capable, and directed; you led TGI out of a steaming pile of dung and revved its engines back up, even into the heat of rebellion. CoB is a clan with immense potential and I also regret cutting this alliance short; we had so many ambitious plans! Forgive me for this, but I know that CoB will carry on just as strongly without ORKz.

-Anyone else, I hope you will see me as less of a childish brat on C&G and more of just someone who wanted to make things interesting. 'What's the point of a war clan if you don't have enemies?' I once thought, so you know I had to make a lot of them. Everything I did, it was to have fun and build excitement in our community. Take my advice and remember that it's always important to have people like RAA, SF, VAK, V O I D, anybody. Anybody that stirs up controversy or hate is a valuable asset to the clanworld. It drives you, it pushes you to take that last step and win the clan g-... I won't even finish that statement, I'm no ToberDORK.

-Aspiring leaders, you can do it. I went into this receiving a lot of poor criticism, lots of people including ISOLAYTOR once said that my clan would wither out without proper development; but look at us now. They said we were a hype clan; look at us now. They said we would die; look at us now. Every bad piece of criticism I received didn't discourage me, it actually made me stubborn enough to keep working hard and to always move towards forming something to be proud of.

That's about it, I am again extremely sorry for any of my allies who I've made promises with.

This is the best choice for me, and it's about time I started being a healthier person. I will not be coming back; believe me.

Godspeed, all of my friends and allies along the way. It's time to start my own real WAAAGH. I've got plans to become a mega-billionaire, in case you don't know yet. You'll see. :3
