Goodbye Mod-I-Raider. Hello Freedom.

**Raider Hanks**

My dear friends and acquaintances. Since September 2018, with a few momentary interludes, I have tried my best to work alongside the Dinkleberg staff team to create a fun environment where I could be myself. And I hope the staff, players, and overall community maintain that joy for me. But truthfully, staffing has gradually grown to be a chore. I grow tired of it. I kept trying to hop back into being active, but life just gets in the way.

The God's honest truth is that this community helped me get through high-school and my early college years. I had many ups and downs. I did dumb shit, but I always had a blast. I disappeared for times. But I loved that no matter how long I was away, everyone was always excited and welcoming when I popped back in. Its the memories I will always cherish. There is an appreciation I hold that no words can articulate.

Let me be clear, I am not leaving completely. I will continue to be here and there. Just back as a regular player, for the first time in a long time. I had previously resigned in early 2020, but COVID lockdowns got me back into the groove and I decided to use it as an opportunity to work up the ranks again. It was refreshing. But I think my final era in Dinklebergs should be as it began.

I am here to be severely retarded. Who do I bribe for Donor +.
