[Click Here For Google Doc Formatted List]
<Introduction>
Since 2011, the Ex-GM team has been a home to those who still wish to be a part of a team, but this time the members are allowed to neglect their duties. This team is made up of veterans of this Roblox server, ex-larpers as well as players ranked Bronze-Silver on the well-known Point and Click Space MMORPG, League of Legends. The annual newsletter allows the team to stay up to date on current members and assist in the recruitment of prospective members, see list of possible recruits below.
As a disclosure the Ex-GM Team Board acknowledges that there are some members of our team with an unsavory history, while we could kick them off the team, that would put that member back onto staff which would not be swell with the community so we shall carry the burden.
Benefits
Members of the Ex-GM Team receive comprehensive counseling for their loss of authority and self-believed power, funding provided by the Ex-Staff Foundation for a Better Life.
Graduates receive a lifetime membership to the EXATUTOEXGMOLOTC, or Ex-GM’s Against The Unfair Treatment Of Ex-GMs on Lord of The Craft.

Responsibilities and Dues
As an Ex-GM you are responsible for reminding the community at least once a month that you were indeed once a GM.
Upon leaving the server, you are obligated to return to the forums on occasion and post a status about how staff used to be better.
Whether you are active on the server or not, all of your opinions are welcomed and valid in any dramatic server issue the community is dealing with.
Current Matters
Planning of the Ex-GM Team Wellness Retreat
We are currently looking into multiple venues for the upcomming Ex-GM wellness retreat, we have reached out to KorvicCraft and Warlords but have not been able to confirm whether they can support our 230 members online without a waiting queue. SchoolRP has reached out but we believe it is best to keep some of our members at least 5 miles from a school.
Anorexichippo Stepping Down
Upon leaving the Ex-GM team and changing his name to BasketWeaver, Anorexichippo has decided it is best for the future and in line with our mission that he steps down from position of Chairman of the Board. He will move into an Vice-Chairman Advisory Counsel to the Board on future matters handing off the position to Bungo. The New Chairman Bungo will serve the board well and will create a great future for Ex-GMs everywhere.
Tombstone Designs for Future Ex-GM Graveyard
We are still on the look for compact but tasteful tombstone designs for the Ex-GM graveyard, while we have received various submissions, tombstones in the shape of phallic objects will no longer be accepted.
Rescheduling of Infraction Bingo
As many members of our team do not understand how infractions work, Infraction Bingo is going to be postponed until further notice, we are looking into bringing in special counsel to explain how infractions work so we may actually play the game.
Search for Forgotten Members
Many names of members have been lost over the years, if you know of someone missing on our membership list below, please contact Anorexichippo at Basket#4977 to make the necessary adjustments. We cannot leave anyone behind.
Recruitment Strategies for New Ex-GMs
Currently our class of 2020 is quite small in comparison to past years, while we are not worried, we are looking into better recruitment strategies to pull from the current prospective members of the team. We are sure more will join before the year is up.

This is my last post as I retire from my position as Chairman, it has been a great 9 years serving on this board and know that Bungo will do an excellent job leading our fallen heroes.
