User blog comment:Bullet Francisco/A Letter of Retirement/@comment-Le Solace-20130109000526

Kyle Baker, I cannot thank you enough for all the encouragement, all the praise, and everything you have done for me over the months. As a user of the Sonic News Network, you have been an integral factor in my development. I would never have grown in the same way without you. You may be forceful of your own opinions on the wiki and its policies, but who am I to have an issue with this? This is who you are, what you feel, and we have no right to change that. I have noticed your lack of contributions and general productiveness recently, and I understand why this would make you feel worthless. I am deeply saddened to see you retire, but I will always be overjoyed to see you return on occasion. We'll still keep in touch on Skype, most definitely, and if and when I get round to buying Minecraft, I look forward to meeting you there. I know you have always seen a lot of potential in me as a user, and I hope this will last until I am promoted in the future.


 * salutes* Here's to one of the greatest, most beloved administrators. The wiki wouldn't have come far without your contributions. I will never forget you, Kyle. Thanks to your avatar, I can no longer look at the spa ponies without thinking about you. Nothing I do on this wiki, or even in life, will be the same knowing you are gone. You have changed my life for the better. It has been an honor working here with you around, and I am proud to say you are one my best friends I've ever had, inside and out of the internet.

I used to wonder what friendship could be, until I met you, Bullet Francisco.

You have all my blessings. Take care.
