Farewell Robobby, Come Back And See Us Soon

It always makes us unhappy to reports sad news, buts its just one of those days. A very popular, talented and capable members of the group has decided to wave goodbye to not just the GFC but Secondlife. Hopefully it would be a decision he may reevaluate at a later date but as his friends we respect his decision.

A message was sent to the fleet today


"You might have noticed my absence in the last week. Unfortunately I had a couple of health issues, which forced me to look at what is most important in my life. And even though I had a blast with each and every one of you, and I will miss you terribly, I need to focus on my real life. So, I will be leaving Second Life.
I want to thank you all for all the good times we had, for the laughs, the talks, the parties and for just being there when I needed it the most. "


With love,
RoB.

The best way to remember the contribution someone makes is to remind ourselves of them so we have put some links below to jog your memories of the enigma that is Robobby McMillan.

I'm sure I speak for the overwhelming majority of the group and wish rob well and hope to see him again very soon.

Richardjrn Weatherwax here, I wanted to also say how much RoBobby McMillan will be missed on my end... I met him over 4 years ago now... Doing one of the things I needed to do to join GFC in the sandbox in my spaceship. Ahh memories, We never really loose the ones we cherish as long as we keep them in our memories they will never be gone. When you go to the library give a thought for the Liberian who loved tea and brew yourself one before you go.
Thank you RoB


P.S. Sophie Johnson also wrote her own Toast to RoB

A sad day in the Fleet

Lt.jg Taurik Xaris Relaxing in the sandbox

I have been in the GFC for about 3 months now and have met some wonderful people here.

I started off at the academy where I passed and was given got my first assignment with a wonderful guy who took me under his wing and encouraged me to go beyond my abilities. Before I knew it I was a full member of the careers devlopement team. He gave me my first promotion which scared me as he put on a very serious face and told me to stand up staight and then announced that I was now crewman 1st class which was witnessed by my first appointment Artemis Yeu.

Today Taurik Xaris resigned from his post as the careers development lead with these words.

"Its been an honour,


I have served with you since I graduated from GFC Academy in 2009, I served as Assistant Lead CDO, taking the reigns as Lead in 2010. This time spent with you all has been fun and productive, I can truely say it was an honour to lead you all on this journey. However I will be stepping back a little- walking with you instead of leading. To this end I declare Demeter Slade Acting Lead, CDO until such a time as the Admiralty confirm my successor.


Let's keep this fleet great.
TX."

Though he will still be around to help out he'd be sadly missed especially by me.

Good luck sir and thank you.

Debbydo salutes her lead and wishes him well.
