Andrew and I used to be really close friends almost five years ago.
He'd always call me "Paws", and I ended up owning the shortname Paws. It was cute.
I was thinking about selling the shortname lately, but now I don't think I will ever. =/
I hope you're having a blast up there with Eric, tell him I said hi, and Danneh too!
Fudge Cancer.
Sleep tight, Andy.

His post sums up the first time we met. However, now we live in the same city and go to the same school!
We're still good friends until this day, but the first time we met was probably the only time we hung out sober. #StudentLife
(he also occasionally yells my name on campus and waves from afar, kind of like an encouraging parent dropping you off for your first day at school)
This summer I will be attending a CS:GO event taking place in London where I'll meet a few more people who don't use xat anymore.

The position or title is not intended for volunteers, if you are manager of some official xat, must know the necessity that such xats has to prestige good works that are increasingly scarce.
What I meant was that your suggestion of new ranks are not necessary (the same as the current forum 'emeritus vol' one) and would just cause outrage from a few individuals.

I would rather get rid of retired/emeritus volunteer than add more titles for people to cry about.

The word retired (emeritus) means retired, not kicked out. This thread sounds more personal more than anything.
Most points you've stated against it don't even make sense.
You said people use this to impersonate, phish and scam. First of all, has this been reported at all? Secondly, scammers attempt to impersonate volunteers all the time, retired or not retired. You also stated they impersonate as you and you don't even have the title. So how would removing the title stop anything if you don't even have the title? So going by what you said in the same argument, phishing and scamming would take place regardless of having the title or no title.
Your other argument of volunteers fighting to keep the ticket system anonymous also makes absolutely zero sense. They were not anonymous on the forum or even the wiki. The reason they kept that anonymity was to avoid being harassed due to ticket replies. Counter arguing that point with "not being priveleged to the discussion" shows you've lost that one.
And for the record, volunteers who were not listed anywhere was done by personal choice, the same goes for this forum title.

xat is what games needed years ago to easily communicate on. Assuming that's where most of the user base came from. With Club Penguin shutting down, I suppose it'll decline further. However, for most gamers (who I hope have moved onto better games) xat isn't ideal against apps like Teamspeak3/Ventrilo/Discord. Radio stations were a big thing, but who actively listens to the radio anymore unless you're in your parents/grandparents car? (this might not be true for everyone) but if things like Spotify/YouTube and other music apps never existed, I would only listen to the radio then. For a business to run, it needs to keep up and be aware of it's competitors.
Launching powers was a success. But let's not forget xat is a business and businesses make money. While I disagree with weekly powers, it's likely paying the bills. But for a business to run, it needs to offer what the users want, not what the business wants.
Contributors was introduced to give xat a more "diverse" outlook on things rather than constantly having a volunteer opinion. This was a good idea in the beginning, but I feel it quickly became another clique. For a business to run more efficiently, it probably needs real employees.
Nevertheless, there were users who genuinely cared about xat. There were users who constantly reported bugs. And there probably still is, but it's definitely not as huge as it used to be. Herzberg's 2 factor theory is a good start on that topic. So lastly, for a business to run, it needs to listen to it's user base.Just ask yourself this question, "Would I introduce or recommend xat to anyone else?" and then ask yourself why.
