SUAF was formed to test ideas on how an ONLINE gamming community could work.
When I suggested some of the principals that became SUAF to my first clan BHC I was told that will never work because this is ONLINE gamming.
To those that do not have the GUTS to try to succeed or fear failure I say, "Dare to be Great".
There are many things SUAF became to stand for but the central idea was easy, "The Good Guys".
I closed SUAF because I have been to the top of the mountain and enjoyed the view there.
Once we learned how to play the game as SUAF, it became too easy to us as a group and to many as individuals.
We had learned what MOHAA can teach us well and carry that with us each day.
Now it will be up to those that understand what SUAF was to find your own mountains and enjoy the view.
I personally have enjoyed the games with the many GUEST, TORs and FULL SUAF over these past 61 months we played at SUAF.
I was given some talent and used it to show what could be done.
SUAF at it peak was ranked at the TOP of the world wide MOHAA game by cSports.net and Chuck and myself were topped ranked in FFA and TDM also.
SUAF saw many groups come and go and some disrespect what we had done.
SUAF was a place where players with may hours under there belt and those that were new could get better at a game we Loved to play for FUN.
SUAF was about having FUN & becoming a better person and not just a better gamer.
Some things that I tried over the years did not work and many did.
I was never afraid to change if I could correct a problem and make it a better place to play.
The first year I paid for SUAF myself and would not let others share in the expense.
My goal was to see SUAF self supporting and in that I failed.
I was never happy with the being the "BOSS" of SUAF but my attempts at SELF Government via the SUAF Founders was one of my failures.
One idea was that SUAF should be a FUN place to play where the members and guest did not have the trouble of "MAKING SUAF WORK" and that was left to the ServerAdmins who served our clients the guest and members.
That worked but remove to some extent the effort it takes on each member to be a part of a FAMILY.
In some ways I was too good of a leader and made being SUAF too easy for it's members to the point that they took SUAF for granted what being a member of a FAMILY means and in so disrespected my limited time here.
At 68 years I decided to spend more time with my family and less with my online friends.
To those that disrespected what SUAF and myself <SUAF>WhiteHawk stood for I say "Peace".
To the many who called <SUAF>WhiteHawk a friend I bid you goodbye.
Goodbye and "Peace & Love" to you all.
