Soul Rider

Little girl: Straight-Edge Zach what are you doing?

SEZ: I'm inducting someone into the CGS VIP group, someone who's had this coming for a long time.

First I would like to thank MF for letting me do this. When MF asked me to do this I replied with one simple word, Yes. Then followed that word with, I'd be happy to. Now I have the honor of doing this:

Soul Rider or WWEpatriotKane! as I personally prefer calling him is one of the greatest users in CGS history, he has been since 30/9/07, nearly two years now! 1231 posts to his name (1.12% of total) and 137 topics. One of the greatest GFX artists in this forums history, a 4x winner of GFX'er of the Month (January, February, March & June), 5x GFX'er Of The Week (Week 1, Week 5, Week 7, Week 8 & Week 12). As well as an influential character in the E-Fed, from the early days to his last run in recent weeks, he's a former CGS United States and Hardcore champion, as well one of the key players of some of the best feuds and storylines (Storme Stable implosion).

I'm trying to think of all the good things I can say about you WPK...there's much but I'd like to let the users have something to say in their comments. I would personally like to thank you for the time you've put into the forum, as well as for your friendship, I want to wish you luck with what's coming up in your future and hope we speak again. You're a great friend, you helped me get used to the forum when I first joined as I'm sure you did with many others. Well, dude thanks for it. It's a shame you have to go to. We’re all going to miss you.

So, as I said earlier, this is a long time coming dude. WPK! I would like to officially induct you into the CGS Hall of Fame.

Congrats Soul Rider!

Well, done on this. You're doing a special job with all the graphics you're pumping out. Congratulations.

Soul Rider, you've been a long-term contributor to CGS and I've given you the VIP rank as a way of saying thanks. You don't have as many posts to your name as others, but you have been around on CGS whenever it's active helping the site out in some way or form. In the past it was with activity and playing a big part in the E-Fed, these days it's producing awesome graphics for members here. Your GFX thread has been filled with requests, and most of the active posters have at some point had one of your pieces in their sigs. The amount of replies and compliments of your work shows just how talented you've become, even producing the CGS site banner

Your inclusion into the VIP should show the rest of the forum that despite not being the most active poster, you can still earn a place through continued loyalty and other contributions like graphics. I also want to mention your general attitude around the forum which is superb, I've never had to warn you about anything. You follow the rules spot on, and have never caused me any trouble at all. You've been a calm, mature and friendly presence on the forum for ages now, one which will be missed, and it's a great shame to see you go. But you're doing your duty, and that is admirable. I wish you all the best my friend. Thanks for everything. =)

Congrats Soul Rider! On a side note, I've always thought you were the best GFXer on this site and probably the best I know of. Definitly deserve it.

Congrats SR, this is truly deserved!

Cool, My Buddy is a VIP. This is great to see. You have come so far WPK in every way. For example you first started out as an average poster on OWW 2 years ago, And then become a great poster. Just like your GFX work. It went from 'Alright' to some of the best work I have ever seen.

Even though your activity lacks these days, Your commitment to CGS will never be forgotten and we all thank you for what you have brang to CGS. Welcome to the club

Aaaah, the weird dude being inducted in the Hall Of Fame . Congratulations WPK!, you really do deserve this. You've been in here more than the majority of the active members, and you have really been nothing but loyal to CGS. Sure, you haven't been in here all the time, but your efforts are much much appreciated. Your graphics have helped CGS, not only because you provided us with a new banner, but to most members that you've produced signatures for. You've been one of the most respected CGS users ever, not just during the resurrection, but especially during the old CGS days.

You've never failed to make me laugh, from all the conversations we've had because of your unique, witty personality. Thank you for everything you've done to CGS, and to all the times you've amused me . I wish you well in everything, and keep safe. We'll be waiting for your comeback!

I think this was a very good decision and I'd like to congratulate you for joining the VIP ranks! You've contributed a great deal to the site over the past couple of years and I'm excited to see those contributions being honored.

Your recent GFX work has had a great impact on the site, especially with the new banner and I'm sure you'll be inducted into the GFX HOF that just got started. Your participation on the rest of the site and the e-fed has also been great. You've improved immensely since your first posts on the site to become one of the most respected users here. I'm glad you joined and stayed active all these months. Hope you'll be around much longer!

Time to dig out my old school glitter graphics:

You've been a great member of this site for a reall long time. It's good to see you get the VIP rank. Congratulations. And I hopefully you still remember this, cause if you don't then it will be pointless. BUT Kane is not pointless. There I said it. Congratulations again, we'll miss you here at CGS.

I agree with the others, you definitely deserve this, so congrats Soul Rider.

*claps* long time coming SR. I think your induction should be followed by a shitload of posts from you. Just sayin...

You really deserve it WPK. Your a nice guy that seems to be friends with everyone.

Well,its a great honor to be one of the limited members who are Hall of famer here.Its been a long ride,almost 2 years now,but its been one hell of a two years.I've accomplished so much,and I want to thank everyone onCGS that helped me on my way here.I really appreciate this with all my heart,and its great to read all this comments about myself.CGS is one hell of a great place,and I'm glad I didn't leave this place in the past,becuase with such a great community,who wouldn't want to be a member.I would like to thank also my good friend MF,for giving me this honor,and for my arch nemesis on the Fed,and another great friend,Straight Edge Zach.
