Hello all,
This shouldn’t be much of a surprise to anyone, if anything my lack of activity here demands that I reintroduce myself to many of the new faces around TF2M. For those unaware, I’ve been hosting and maintaining VBot for the past few years, after having created it initially, then having @fubarFX re-build it from the ground up before handing it back to me to update as needed.

In the past week I’ve been able to move over VBot to be hosted on TF2M servers, to hopefully fix stability issues for it alongside giving staff more control over it.

I’ll no longer be in the discord and I hope people to direct questions specifically on VBot running to staff (such as if it goes down or the website can’t be reached). The staff can be assured that if there are absolutely any issues with VBot I’ll be more than happy to lend a hand, I absolutely want to help out still and ensure staff are capable of maintaining it.

So before I head off I want to give a proper thank you to those still here who recognise me, I spent a lot of time on TF2M during the years I matured and the community has shaped my skillset heavily as well as influence me into the person I am today. Y’all were also great entertainment.

For many here I look forward to seeing what they can accomplish when they finally move on from TF2. There are art-styles that are still yet to be found and technical limitations that can be broken in any modern engine. For those staying, I hope you the best in learning as much as you can from the veterans here, even though I spent most my time in the chat and talking a ton about my maps I regret not collaborating more as the brief periods I did so were the best times on TF2M I had.

Goodbye All

VBot has been one of the biggest shifts that this community has seen in a long time, it vastly improved map testing for hundreds of new and old mappers. Your contribution will not be forgotten.

Best of luck in your endeavors. Hopefully we can hang out at PAX 2019 again!

See ya pal, none of use would've been able to do what we do as efficiently without your help. I hope everything goes well for you in the future! Good luck!

See you, thank you for making Vbot one of the best bots I have ever seen in a chat and hopefully you can find better programming endeavors in the future!

Even with only our brief encounters, I will miss any members that leave. I will still be reading through many of your forum posts in the future like I have in the past, helping me along my mapping career. Even without you present, your legacy lives on.

Godspeed. May you enjoy the rest of your life.
