    Even though I never really got to meet you, I am extremely grateful for everything you've done for the Sandlot, and for its creation itself. I don't want to make a long post, nor can I really think of what I should say right now. So, I'll keep it short and sweet.

    Thank you @cheracc. For Sandlot. :)

    @cheracc We always tell our players that real life comes first. You are setting the example for all of us. I wish you the very best in all of your future endeavors.

    As a parent, I was delighted to find The Sandlot for my sons. They have had so much fun here, and learned some valuable life lessons as well. Shortly after they joined, I purchased my PC account, and have never looked back. The Sandlot will be a part of our fondest memories for this period of their lives.

    Thanks for creating the conditions that allowed this wonderful community to flourish.

    @c0wg0d I look forward to your leadership with this legacy and have every confidence that The Sandlot will continue to thrive.

    @cheracc, as one of the players who has been here for a while, I can appreciate your vision for The Sandlot including when life got in the way, and in your asking c0wg0d to accept a lot of the responsibility for the server. I believe these decisions were good ones, and that the server has flourished because of that.

    personally, I feel that between you and c0w, Sandlot has had two talented people who have shown their care and dedication to Sandlot in their own ways. so, for me, I am hoping that this means that you can come around more often as a player, and I look forward to that. as for c0wg0d, I think he has done a wonderful job in sharing your vision.

    "life is what happens when we are making plans" I think of Sandlot kind of like a relay race, in which you took the baton, ran with it as far as you could, and are passing it on to c0w, often in life we may start things that others will continue. I kinda grew up on The Sandlot, and I feel like Sandlot is a type of family and sometimes family members have to go away, but that we will always miss them and welcome them back.

    I've cherished all the time I've been on The Sandlot and have been so happy to be able to contribute to it... thanks for trusting an excited 13 year old kid. thank you for everything and I'm so glad to have met you, c0wg0d, and everyone else on The Sandlot. I pray for your family that you have health and happiness. best wishes, and see you soon.

    Thank you, Cheracc! -- not only for establishing the foundations of this amazing community, but for also entrusting c0wg0d as an administrator to hold the fort in your absence. I wasn't around when you were active, but I really do appreciate everything you have done for us. None of us would be here right now, if not for you. C0wg0d has a real passion for the server, and I know he will ensure it continues to offer the same values Sandlot always has.

    What is this "real life" you speak of!? :rolleyes:

    I know I have never really seen/meet you on the server cheracc, but that does not mean I know the hard work you have put into the server. It is obvious to all that you put your heart into this server, and I for one am greatly indebted to you for it! I and my son love this server! I look forward to seeing you sometime down the road!

    Always remember: without you, there would have been no Sandlot! The best ideas still need somebody to turn them into a reality, and you did this for Sandlot. The community will always have a debt to you.

    Unfortunately, I think I came in as you were reducing your involvement so we never really spent a lot of time together. But thank you for creating the Sandlot, which has really added a fun dimension to my life and the lives of so many others.

    All the best!

  13. Thank you for the vision that created this server, and helped it flourish.

    Immense respect for the recognition and the strength that you needed to have someone else assume the duties.

    Looking forward to seeing Cheracc playing on Sandlot.

    @cheracc Thank you for creating the Sandlot! You gave me a safe place for my son and I to play Minecraft together and we found a great, uniquely positive community as well. You have made an impact. It is also truly an honor to be a moderator on the Sandlot. I do hope we'll see you now and then.

    Cheracc, thank you so much for this great work - a safe and truly fun place for our children (and, as it turns out, US!!) to play and socialize. It is a huge gift.

    Enjoy life!

    Cheracc, from the day when I came to Sandlot, for me, you we're a great Owner, you did things that amazed me. We all understand that you need to move on to your life, and we accept that, we are sure that c0wg0d will be a great Owner, maybe like you. We all hope that you'll come one day say a little hi, or something, if not, it's fine, because you did an amazing job that we all respect and enjoy. Goodbye Cheracc, we hope you have a great continuation.
