As some of you already know, SD has been talking about becoming a community. Well, that time has now come. SD will die as a clan, and live as a community. I purposely chose today, October 21st, to officially make SD a community, because it marks the 1 year anniversary that I joined SD. I found it rather appropriate. I have talked to the SD members and they are fine with making us a community. We haven't warred in weeks anyways, so they found it was time to die as a clan. Things won't really change, other than the fact that we will not be warring anymore. The chat will still be registered, people can still hang out, talk, and ask for some friendly races. It will be mostly the same.

 

Now just because we are community, doesn't mean any random person can join. I don't want to have annoying people that will kill SD's reputation and will ruin the fun that we usually have. People that have always been in the #stardashers chat, and have been there even before I joined SD, are free to join. Those that have supported SD and have been along side it, are also free to join. Just because you meet one of these "requirements", does not mean you are in. Run by me first stating that you want to join, and I will decide whether or not you are in. A few people have already asked if they could join, and they have the okay on that...You know who you are.

 

I now want to make special dedications to current SD members and former leaders.

 

Shaun, Matt, and Degausser: No better way to start off by thanking the 3 guys that founded SD. I greatly appreciate the work that was put into SD to make it active and as strong as it once was. SD has been the most enjoyable clan I have ever been apart of, and I thank you guys for that. Shaun, I told you I would keep SD alive as long as I could, and I did just that. The inactivity and the lost of interest for the game finally caught up. I did my best to save it each and every time it seemed like it was about to die. Matt, we have always had our quarrels, even before I became a leader. You have still been a great guy despite our disputes, and I appreciate that. Degausser, you have been such a pleasure to talk to and war with. Leading with you was enjoyable and very easy to do. We mostly had the same mindset on decisions and we agreed on nearly everything. You have always been a nice, and laid-back individual. Thanks.

 

Paul: A true legend of the game. You were in SD from the beginning, and you were one of the guys that gladly welcomed me in. I still enjoy talking to you every now and again. You were always a challenge in WWs and a great team player for the few wars that we were in together. Thank you for getting SD on its feet earlier on, even before I knew this place existed. You have been an understanding person and a great guy to talk to. I appreciate what you have done for SD's sake.

 

Bubbles and Frigz: Thank you for being by my side for over a year. We were in GF together, WT together, and now remain in SD together. You 2 were always available to talk and listen to what I had to say, and I was the same for you. Us sticking together was one of the best decisions we have ever made, and we are still going strong together. I love and appreciate you guys more than you will ever know. I can trust you guys with my life and can always rely on you two for being there for me. BroBond4life.

 

Kunal: Goodness you were full with activeness. You really brought SD back to life and as active as it ever was. Constantly finding wars and doing whatever it took to keep SD active. You were a great guy to lead with and race with. I was upset about you leaving but its your decision. It somewhat pissed me off because I was left alone leading, and it really put me in a hole, but you have done so much for SD in the few months you were apart of it. You have always been understanding and out going and I thank you so much for what you have done in SD.

 

Thino: Ah, the biggest asshole of our time. Around your faggotry, your help back in March when I first took over was greatly appreciated. You did your

best in keeping SD alive and active and got us going in GTT and WCL. Thank you for the few months that you helped me lead. Just know you're my favorite nigger B).

 

Stacy: One of the remaining SD members since its birth. Anytime I see your name, the first thing that comes to mind is "reliability". You have always been active and have always been up for a war. You are one of the main reasons SD has lived for as long as it did. I also appreciate you accepting the leadership role a couple months ago. The times on skype have always been enjoyable with you, and you have been a great guy. Always laid back and went with the flow. Thank you for your strong support and dedication to this clan.

 

Aubrey: MOO! Haha, you are one hell of a guy. I remember being told that you were one of the original members in SD. Im so glad you came back to be apart of us once again, and truly realized where your home was. You were always war hungry and ready to kick some strawberries. You could always be aggressive which is sometimes the attitude SD needed in some wars. Although you were left out of rosters, you still wanted to be in the skype calls with us. Always a great guy to talk to and chill with. Thanks for staying with SD in its ups and downs.

 

Jon: One of the first to join when I was placed as leader. You have always been hilarious on skype and in the chat. You could get pissed off at times but generally you were relaxed and chilled. You selected stupid characters in wars, but hey, avoided the over used ape, and it was always funny to see some unused character kicking some strawberries. Your dedication to SD was very much appreciated and I thank you greatly for sticking with us. I remember at times you were invited to join EF, the one clan that you had great friends with, but you turned them down and stayed with SD. Thank you so much for that. You have been a great friend to me and were always cooperative with the decisions that SD made. Thanks again for your loyalty.

 

Asylum: Been in SD pretty much forever. Thanks for making yourself available for being a leader for the past couple of months. I honestly don't know what I can say more other than the fact that you have always had support and dedication for SD. You were always for its best interest and wanted it to live as long as possible and I thank you for that.

 

Johnorama: Known you since the WT days. I have never told anyone this, but you were the reason why I began to play MKW actively. Once you failed me in WT, that was my motivation to become better than you. You are one of the main reasons I am still here today playing this game. I always saw you as a rival and someone to consistently beat, although you or no one else knew it. Seeing on how harsh you were after my tryout, and how strict you could be in the WT chat, really pissed me off, which is why I hesitated to allow you in SD. I saw it as being my revenge. Once you were in the SD chat more often, I realized how awesome of a guy you were. You always put smiles on my face and put me in a good mood, and you have been a great guy to chat with. You have always been loyal and dedicated to SD, and had good morals for it. You are just a great guy and I thank you for being such an amazing individual. Party time is now.

 

Enedlhach: I haven't known you for too long, but you are a person that sticks up for what he believes and doesn't care what others think. I love your personality and attitude, and you have always been a cool guy to talk to. I know you joined recently and weren't expecting for SD to die as a clan as soon as it did, but thanks for understanding the decision that had to be made. Still hope to you see around in the chat.

 

Rollergold: The same situation Ened was in...joining recently and wanted to play MKW competitively. I feel bad for turning SD into a community for reasons such as this, but wars just weren't being played and people were losing interest for the game. I still loved hearing your rants about how much the Wii sucks on skype...always made me laugh. You were one awesome guy and thanks for being apart of SD.

 

Solar: One hell of a sandbagger. You put team first and made sure we did the best we could do. Other than racing, you were hilarious on skype and always made me smile and laugh in the chat. You are a great friend of mine and I still hope we can still chat and keep in touch. Thank you very much for being apart of this clan...you have always been a pleasure to have.

 

Sphere: I didn't really get to talk to you much, because of your parents grounding you. Other than that, the few wars we played together were great. You are one amazing racer, and had excellent teamwork. I felt extremely comfortable racing with you in wars. I hope you decide to stay around and hang out with us in the chat.

 

Larry-S: Just like Sphere, you got parent owned. The one war we played together showed me that you are a great team player. I learned a lot about you just from that one war. You kept the rest of the team informed with what was happening. You are an excellent racer and a competitive person. You were easy to get along with and are always relaxed. Thank you for sticking with SD, you have been a great friend.

 

DarkLouis: Where have you been. One of the remaining SD members (sort of) since its birth. I don't know if you will ever read this, but you are worth mentioning. I loved talking with you in the chat, because you were such an awesome guy and always out going with everyone. Racing and warring with you was always a pleasure. One of the coolest guys this clan has ever had. Great dedication for SD, but activeness was bad, but we all understand that your real life situations are more important :P...sonofabitch ;)

 

Flame: I know you haven't been on in weeks, and I am not sure when you will read this, but I want to say you have been one of my best friends in this clan. You were always up for a chat and always up for a war. Your attitude and personality was just what this clan needed. The times we have talked and warred have always been a pleasure. You were always interested in things that I had to say, whether it was issues or suggestions that I may have had. Thank you for being such a great friend to me. I love and appreciate you so much.

 

Sword: I don't know where to start, because I could write a book about the amazing times I have spent with you. You were the one the main reasons that I kept SD alive, because I wanted to spend as much time with you as I could...and I knew with SD's death it would start the separation between us. You know how to put a giant smile on my face and ALWAYS putting me in a good mood, no matter how pissed off I was. Anytime you would join the chat, my face would light up. All the inside jokes we have, and not caring that others think we are crazy or strange. The only thing that mattered to us is that we were talking with one another and having a great time. I instantly had a connection with you when I joined SD back a year ago from this date. Your personality was very much like mine, and you always had jokes to tell to me. You welcomed me with open arms and made me comfortable to be in SD. I thank you so much for that. You are one of my best friends, not only on the internet, but in the world. I love and appreciate you so much, that I can barely express it in words. Thank you for being with SD from its First day to its Last. You have helped SD more than you will ever know, and I am so blessed to have you as a friend.

 

After all these mentions, there isn't really anything left to say. SD has proven to be one of the most enjoyable clans in the MKW community, along with keeping its high reputation. I just want to give a thank you to those that have been apart of SD - since Day 1 to its Final Day - and have now moved on to other clans, and other choices in life. Everyone that has ever worn the SD tag has given something to it, and have played they part. I love this clan so much and I appreciate each and everyone of you that have been apart of this team. It has been one hell of a ride, and I hope that we can still race occasionally and talk frequently.

 

The Final Farewell...SD4life...
