I woke up today, opened HF to see that I was randomly randomly logged out. Though I still have access to my registration email and password, I had lost gauth due to changing my phone and forgot to disable it while I was logged in.
My name is Roytoy and this is my goodbye. To my second home, to my family, I love you.

I didn't want to make this thread because I knew I'd get emotional, or maybe because a part of me isn't ready to say goodbye yet. After all, I'm being forced to leave. I've been here since late 2009. I was 16 back then, and I'm 25 now. So many things changed in my life but HF was always a constant. I've met so many amazing people who I now consider brothers, and had so many great experiences which made me the person I am today.
I made my first online dollar here, then my first $20. I bought an upgrade, twice... and upgraded others. Then I bought my first camera, then my first PC.
It was all done through the knowledge I had gained through reading, replying, questioning and even helping.
I came here to learn how to "hack," fearing that I would get hacked myself, and I did learn how to do that, but decided it was immoral. I had feared that I wouldn't be safe here, I feared being manipulated, being made fun of. I didn't know anything back then, but I was surprised. I found a welcoming community. I found friends. I found those who were willing to help without asking for anything in return.
Jesse,
I've always had nothing but the utmost respect for you, constantly supporting your decisions, as strict as they may be. Your commitment to standing by the rules that you have set is admirable, and though me being forced out of HF, my second home had me depressed for the past week, I know I would be a hypocrite if I asked for the rules to be bent for me. I only wish my emotions weren't so invested into this.
I love you all, and wish you the best of luck...
