Hey everyone, I regret to inform you all that i will be stepping down as the leader of the naruto union. I joined this union on september 2006 where this was a dying place. The previous leader had been banned, and the union had not been updated for months. The boards were dead and i decided i would try to fix everything i can. So i went ahead and became the leader of the union after a vote was held.

I went to fixing it and i tried my hardest to bring us to be the best union we can possibly be, and thanks to all of your support, we have made it there. From being a dead union to being in a deadlock battle for the #1 spot in the most viewed unions ever in a matter of 3 years is more than i ever expected this union to go.

Unfortunatily, i cannot run this anymore. In Highschool it was a little different, as i had no job, school was easy, no girlfriend, and i had plenty of time to sit, come up with new and interesting things for the union to do, as well as update it whenever i can As most of you have probobly noticed since getting into college , my activity has gone from posting everyday, to posting maybe once every few weeks , to never posting at all, and simply doing reviews of episodes. A leader of a union needs to spend his time with the union, and since i got to college, i have been pouring my energy into other things, like schoolwork, swimming, jobs, girlfriends, parties, but not into the union itself.

AS for all the new members, i am sorry that you were not able to get to know me on better terms, and have not seen me during my most productive years, but as you will find out, being a part of something for so long is not an easy task.

Which leads me to the final task. There are two extremely qualified individuals who are able to lead this union. I have full faith in both of them and believe that each one can lead this union to an even greater status than that which i have led it to. I am torn between both of them so i leave the descion to you, the union members to decide who will be the next hokage of the naruto union.

Thanks for all the great years,

Jake

HOLY **** YOUR LEAVING!?!?!?

*Goes and cries in a corner*

I've been a member since before you became leader ,and I can tell you did a great job as a leader always coming up with ideas and stuff (reviews, chuunin exams, etc...) and brought this union to be the #1 naruto union on gamespot

but yea real life is always more important , thanx for bringing happiness over the internet during all this time , come visit us from time to time

Alpha, even though I don't know you very well, as I am one of the new members to this union, I do have some experience in seeing leaders go due to MMO guilds and Xbox Live clans, most of them resigning their position for much the same reason as yours, simply put you didn't have enough time.

Naturally, real life comes before anything else on the internet (except porn ) and I'm glad you realize that and not take the union over college/jobs/girlfriends. Most people have a hard time facing reality, and would rather sink into their union or game, luckily you're not one of them.

Good luck to you sir, and I hope to see you around the forums from time to time
