    I meant to post something last month, on my 3 year anniversary, but I completely forgot. I'm not into talking about myself, but I'd like to take a moment to recollect.

    It's been over 3 years since I begun helping out at Brawl. When I met Chap for the first time I was 16 years old; I had no experience in running servers through command line, managing a community, acting professional, editing code (still not even proficient), and the plethora of other things I somehow manage to do today.

    Watching that first Seananners Minecraft video after closely following Call of Duty definitely changed my whole life. It's so ****ing crazy to think about (as I get chills). I was kind of into computers, but I had never even played a remote and keyboard game when I picked up Minecraft. After purchasing and trying to return the game in October 2010, I never realized I would network with so many people and change so much as a person.

    I can't even fit all of the close friends I've developed through Minecraft and Brawl in a room. I've been extremely grateful to be put into such a situation where I've been able to develop as a person. Currently perusing a computer science degree, I am realizing much I love the versatility that Brawl provides.

    I'd like to turn this around and just encourage all of you to just work hard and work for what you desire to do. I have to say, I was pretty lucky to be around when Brawl needed someone to manage the community. But, I wouldn't have moved up to having control of the servers and such by just sitting on my ass. I had to work and apply myself in order to fill the needed position.

    I hope that everyone on Brawl has had the ability to meet new people and dive into subjects that they wouldn't have otherwise.

    @Brittan, @Bvo, @notPenor, @Signatured, @Mojang, @specknav pleasure meeting all of you in-real-life. Crazy, right? Meeting Internet strangers in the IRLs?

    @AndyinaBEARsuit, @D3RGPS31 we've stayed together since 2010, how the ****? Even though we haven't met (yet), I've been influenced by both of you so much. Dealing with my squeaky 13 year old ass for that long, damn.

    All current and previous staff, thank you all. Honestly, I have no idea how you all of you stuck through this for one moment. I guess we're all a bit crazy for even attempting. I feel in-debt to you all for eternity.

    All players, thank you for playing our dumb Minecraft games. I hope we could provide a decent enough community for you all to look back one day on and think of all the fun times. Hope you have had some of the same feelings and friendships as myself.

    Papa bless,

    - Adam

    This hit me like a truck

    Thank you Putty for being awesome and doing everything you do for the community. We cannot thank you enough. I wish I joined Brawl way back, it would've been really cool. I joined in summer of 2014 so I don't know if that makes me an old member or not but during my time at Brawl so far, I've had so much fun times and met sooo many amazing people, it's crazy. I don't know you personally or anything but from working in the staff team with you, I get a chance to talk with you from time to time which is pretty interesting, I can say you're a really cool guy. I think this is my 500 post so I kinda wanted to make it a bit special :stuck_out_tongue:

    Thank you Putty, stay sweggy

    Thanks for everything, Lord Putty. You're always there for us when we need you, and you've brought Brawl to its highest. Back when I was mod here, getting to know all of the staff and admins, I loved it. Being mod here was one of the best moments I've ever spent on a block game. Being looked up to, being loved, it was wonderful, and I know how you feel all the time; it must be stressful, but with your high status, you're a god. Now my popularity is almost gone, but I have to say: Thank you for everything Putty. You have made Brawl great. <3

    Hm. You don't act it but you're pretty sensitive. It's really cool to see this side of you actually. You come up in conversation in my house a lot if that doesn't, hopefully, sound creepy... Hahaha but it's because I really look up and aspire to be you. We don't talk much and I don't expect to, but everyone here has had their lives changed by you and brawl in general. So thanks for doing that, you know? Also, get better at slither.io! XD

    The feels are going to hit me #soon

    Oh wait no it's already got me. Crap no the emotions!

    I can't begin to put myself in your shoes putty, but I'd like to say that brawl has really helped me and I'm not sure how I would be if I haddnt met this community, and you're really the community's rallying point. So thanks for being so awesome and professional. Lead on, we'll be happy to follow you to better and better things to come.

    Hi Putty c:
    I've known you for a long time. I've talked to you a few times, and you're a really nice guy. It's been amazing to see what you've done for the community in the 2 and a half years I've been here. Keep on going, and keep on being you c:
