For anyone who's been paying attention my activity on the site over the past few months has been slim to none. I've been meaning to do this for awhile now so this will be my farewell and my announcement of "retirement". I've been an active member of this site for years now with over 1,000 posts, honestly I never thought I'd make 100 posts. I'm not going to ramble on and right an essay, there are just a few things I want to say. There have been so many people along the way that have helped me:

Nutt - who's been a great friend, contributed to many projects and has been with me since day one.

Makinith29 - the YouTube legend

EFox - another good friend who has been with me from the start

KevinDV, EVI, BxBugs123, Voodoobie, Tim98 (or whatever he calls himself today) for all of the parts and support they have provided along the way.

Raptor422 and Strikeeagle345 - I was able to form great friendships with these guys and have a successful YouTube LCPD:FR patrol series.

Also a huge thank you to Sam and the developers of LCPD:FR, without you there wouldn't be any reason for all the great mods we make.

Anyone who has ever BETA tested for me - the mods weren't possible without you guys.

Anyone else I forgot, don't feel bad if I forgot your name, I just have trouble remembering everyone.

 

It all started with an unlocked CVPI, EVI's wheel pack, Code 3 XT6's and a Whelen Justice... I did it simply because I wanted 1 car, a slicktop unmarked CVPI with hubcaps. (link to my first model for anyone interested ?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>)'>?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>) I never intended to even release that or make any more cars than that but with almost 35 released files totaling 40,000 downloads on this site alone, I couldn't have asked for anything more. None of which would have been possible without you guys, the community.

 

Honestly I have no interest in modeling anymore, I haven't touched any projects in months and even in my free time I don't enjoy it like I use to. With work and the fact that what use to be a virtual law enforcement career is on its way to becoming a real life one I feel its time to part ways so I can focus fully on that, as I've been doing for awhile now. I had some great times on this forum and in this community as a whole and once again I thank everyone for that. GTA V has been in the back of my mind and while there is a chance I may come back and release content for that, well I wouldn't hold your breath. I will still lurk in the shadows as I've been doing and may occasionally posts here and there but for the most part this will conclude my time here.

 

THANK YOU and I hope everyone has a fantastic holiday and new year.

See ya, NickieB. You've done many things and put many smiles on the faces of people who play lcpdfr, I dont know a single person that hasnt used ur vehicles. Farewell and good luck in your endeavors if u dont comeback for the release of lspdfr if it happens

It's been great working with you and getting to know you! Make sure to keep in touch and I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavours. And for the love of god, get a PS4 so we can play GTA V together lol.

I've seen you around the community and have used your models a few times. As we haven't met/talked to each other.. from what i have seen you're a great guy with a great attitude that will fit well into any Law Enforcement agency! It may suck that you're leaving but you gotta do what you gotta do. You'll be a mighty fine police officer, so goodbye and goodluck NickieB!

Congrats dude and farewell.Who know`s maybe you will take something from here you learnt or saw and use it in the field and really help yourself or someone else.Who know`s the world is a sketchy place.Or maybe i have just been listing to to much Interpol tonight. Anywayyy Good luck my friend. 

Goodbye, you've been here for a long time and It's sad to see such a long standing member to leave. But of course, it's for the greater good! Feel free to pop in at any time and tell us of your endeavours! 

Thanks for providing the many awesome mods that you did Nate. I REALLY enjoyed beta testing them and I hope to see you on the streets of Los Santos one day.

I think I have nearly every car of yours. At least the ones with runners I have, cause runners are great!

Besst Of Luck, Get into swat if you can ^_^

Merry Christmas Nate. I am very glad I got to be a part of this community while you were still active. I hope to see you 'round. Have a happy New Year.

It's been a fun run Nate, thanks for all your help, support and laughs over the past few years. Take it easy and stay safe out there dude! 

Certainly, your contributions to the community have been very tangible.  It is indeed all quite funny when we look back at how we got started with this stuff - often the best and brightest comes from just a little idea, spurred on by the moment at the time.

 

Above all else though, you've been an incredible example of what it should mean to be a member of our community.  I know that everyone here, and me personally, would like to wish you the best in whatever you do next, and everyone here will always owe you a debt of gratitude for your time and effort.

Thank you very much Sam and to everyone else as well for your kind words, I really appreciate it!

 

PS - I love the addition of the "badge" look to our avatars and our member number, very cool idea!
