Can’t believe just how fast time flies. Nearly a decade ago, EX Palen stepped into the Land of V and eight years later, here he is standing tall!

This year has surely been nice on the site. I got promoted to the highest possible rank an outsider can ever get, which despite the site’s activity is quite the honor. I’ve been on and off with my writing, and I still keep watch of the VGR as always. Not many other things to say besides that, other than my race to beat David to 200k CP and second overall spot is on fire right now and possibly my very last highlight on this place.

I’m quite close to another milestone, which is 3000 days since I registered. It will happen less than three months from now, so I’m wondering if I’ll make a thread for it or pass. It will all depend on the fact of having any news to share, which seems unlikely, and if real life gives me enough time because I’ll be back to studying by that time and who knows if working as well.

Here’s to at least two more years so I can celebrate a decade of activity with all of you! And happy 4th of July by the way, it’s already Sunday where I live xD

It's great to see you celebrate 8 years of being in the Land of V your the only person I could of imagined being the pick to take over the site staff it's great to see how far you've come and I think this way you'll probably get recognized more than before cause I think in the past you've said you were probably the least well known member of staff. It's been a blast working with you these past 6 months and I hope we'll continue doing our best for vizzed for a long time to come.

PS I forgot but thanks for wishing us happy 4th of July I'm not really sure what else to say since It doesn't make much sense to wish it back to you. xD

SonicOlmstead : Yeah, it's been a blast being on the admin team so far. The mod and staff teams continue to improve throughout time, so it's going to be very interesting.

While I'm not that focused on recognition right now, as I've already been gifted this position, I do think it'll be nice for people to notice just what you can achieve with hard work even if you're not between the popular guys on the forums or chat. Hopefully more people will be recognized by this in the future.

That will be insane when one of you reaches 200K CP! That needs to have a thread made for it!

You registered for the site less than a year after me! I've been on the site for a little over 3000 days, and I definitely missed an opportunity to make a thread somewhere in there.
