Clicking on this and you're probably thinking what is being implied, and while I would love to say otherwise, the unfortunate truth is, there is no otherwise.
Kyle and I have agreed that, at this point, we don't have the time, drive, or, and I hate saying this as it makes me look like I'm pointing the blame elsewhere, writers to continue on. I will take full blame for this, as I haven't been the staff I should have been. In December when I got news of my father's status, I thought, eh, it'll suck but I'll manage, but since January, since my dad was incarcerated, every week, I've gotten more and more tired, to the point that on Saturdays and Sundays, I'm lucky if I'm awake by 3 PM. I'd like to say I can just shake it off, but honestly, taking this Sunday off was amazing for me. I hate that I can say that, but that's the honest truth.
I don't have the drive to continue doing this. That doesn't mean I won't ever do this anymore, as I still honestly enjoy this game, which is evident by anybody following EUW as I just signed up there to roleplay. That aside, I do love you guys, I truthfully do, but, and this will sound self-centered, I can't keep killing myself week in and week out staying up to god knows what hours trying to come up with that one idea that will turn Pride around.
That said, on April 17th, Pride, Honor, and Valiance II will be Kingdom of Pride's final show. The current booked card will still go on as planned, and I hope that you all make it a phenomenal card, which I believe you all can do, if you put in the effort.
After that show, I'll hope all of you join one of our affiliates, either EUW or UWL. EUW is an outstanding fed, probably the best of any I've seen, and that's said with out bias. UWL is also rising, as it always has been, and has a lot of the same guys that are here. Both feds are class acts and I think all of you would do well in either of those. Whereever you all decide to take yourself, I'm sure Kyle and I will be seeing you, and who knows, maybe we'll end up competing against each other.
I suppose that's all I have to say, I'm not that great with these wordy good-byes, Kyle's far better with words. Only last thing I can think of saying is sorry to those of you who are competing, to those of you that are still constantly coming up with kick-ass segments, to those of you that wanted to see Pride succeed. I did too, but alas, it's time to put Pride down, and move on.
Thank you guys for everything,
Sterling

 I was finally having a good run. Well I guess it's time for me to decide if this is the end of Josh Eagles and my fed career which wasn't planned until september. Sorry to see this fed of any fed go! |

No Joshua....You still got some fight left in ya. Don't have an abrupt end to your career like so many of our other talented friends have with (Abel, Stevens, etc). You can go out in style my friend. Now onto this topic, I know this is always bound to happen for one reason or another. Not every fed can last, as seen with PWF (though was ended for another reason, still) but it's still maddening and sad to see happen. Especially with two kick ass owners who have the moxy and talent to pull shit off and write their asses off, whether it's rp's or results. The lack of particapation they got over their time here as owner's was shameful IMO. And the crap they had to put up with from time to time from people was even more shameful. They did not deserve that at all. I helped Kyle and Jeremy out as much as I could throughout this run as I wanted Kingdom of Pride to have at least a good memorable run. I do and always appreciate their hard work in whatever field of this game they do. But with that, thanks Jeremy and Kyle for sticking it out as long as you could and all the effort you's put into it. Long LIVE THE KINGDOM |

You all deserve a pat on the back. The Kingdom of Pride was my home away from home. Thanks to everyone here for the great writing, jokes, images.. friendships. I will look back on Pride with fond memories.
As Jeremy said, you do not have to stop fedding just because of this. Consider it a fresh start if you will. Take a look around and find a fed that best fits you. I have seen the writing here and the talent is easily commendable. Also, as J-Sterl mentioned, the door is open if anyone wishes to head on over to the EUW. (I hope it is okay to say this, if not, I won't be offended if you edit this post.) Alot of the folks here also compete over there so you will see familiar faces to ease the transfer.
Again, I love the Kingdom of Pride. Everyone here made me feel a part of a family. Thanks for the memories.

I'm really sorry to hear this. Just today I was thinking about how I would go about coming back with Summer coming up in a few months. Thanks for everything, Jeremy, Kyle, and the rest of you who made this fed a lot of fun to participate in.

Once again, tis been a privilege to serve under the 'ol Kingdom of Pride again, even if just for the nostalgia factor. Sure, we hit some major lows, but we also hit some really impressive highs and gave rise to some characters that either hadn't had a chance to shine like this in a while, or we created some new ones like the Nash and Noble characters (yeah, I can pat my own ego here, sue me >_>).
Anyway...TO PRIDE!!!

Pride picked me up off my feet when I thought I had nothing left to give to this community of writers. Pride sparked a creative fire in me that put me on the fast track to success, one that matched and trumped that of my most successful character Danny Mainer and for that, I have many thanks to give.
However, though I am sad that this day has finally arrived I believe it is our obligation to Jeremy and Kurt to ensure that these final two shows are the greatest in Pride History. Whether that means taking on a match, or giving an extra 100% in your promo's we need to send off Pride with one final hoorah. We owe them that much.
Eagles, prepare yourself. Pride might be going down but I'm not. Not without the fight of your life.

Really is a shame to see this place go, but what you guys have done with KoP definitely is worthy of praise. You've all done a fantastic job as fed-heads, as contributors and writers, and as just being all around cool people. Glad I got to know a few of the people in this circle during my short time here.

Strike lied to me...but oh well, I can definitely see where Jeremy and Kyle are coming from with this one. Honestly, Pride dealt with a criminally small roster for far longer than most other feds could have. Starters 2.0...but again, Kyle/Jeremy made a good try with it. It was a fun ride.
...after all, what other fedhead would let me rock a nazi flag sig? >_>

Wouldn't giving back technically be more like giving the title over to a young, up-and-coming face Noble so that he may use the opportunity to flourish as a competitor for all the wrestling world?
