First of all I have “fixed” the skin, and by that I mean restored the defaults since I don’t have access to Bearers skin. Might not look as nice but untill Bearer can fix things properly it is better to have a working skin than no skin at all ;)


And now for what I really came here for. To say goodbye. I have as you will have noticed not been very active lately. This is because of lack of time for Cotec, and also a slowly growing lack of interest caused by the fact that I have not been playing Warhammer actively for a long time. What has kept me here so long is quite simply the people, all the friends I have made here and the fun stuff we have created.

But now it is time to move on, and I figured its better to say goodbye and do a proper exit than just slowly fade away like I have been doing for a while, especially since you will need to find yourself a new admin to take my place. Someone needs to be here to fix things when Bearer disappears! :P

So I just wanted to say farwell to all of you, and thanks for all the good times. Have fun, and don’t let the lights of Cotec go out.

/Erik. A.k.a. Lightbringer



P.S
Find yourself a new admin (you will need one) and send me an email on e_honn@yahoo.se and I will come over and give over the access to that person, so that he or she can carry on the torch. And remember that being admin is a responsibility and not a privilege. You will need to keep things running smoothly and keep thinking up interesting stuff like mini-campaigns to make sure the forum is active and people are having fun.

Thanks for the help but... damn it sucks to see you leave. Never really talked much with you since I'm just new to you all and I don't post that often really. But it's always a sad thing to see someone leave a forum that he has been a part of for a long time. Good luck with your life, and may your soul never leave (litteraly) the Chamber of the Everchosen!

As for who shall be admin I guess Snygge or Tammil will be great for the job even though there are plenty of more to fill it out.

This certainly is a shame. Anyone notice that the VIPs of many sites are leaving now?

Look at the UE and you'll see Vinz has stepped down. That's all I really know about since these two are the only ones I check.

I would be up for an admin position, but I think Snyg or Tammil would be a better option. Maybe when my activity boosts some more I will be a more valid option.


Also, regarding the skin, doesn't EoM have all the buttons and such saved?

Sorry to hear you leave, but it was great knowing you & thx for fixing the skin.

@brownmccoy: I have already been offered admin position, but I said no, I´m not really up for that much responsibility & know nothing about programming & such stuff either.
Glad that you mention me, but I rather see someone else who is actually up for it to take the position.

We need people to volunteer for the position. Once we get 5 nominees I will start a poll to see who will become the admin.

As Brown said, it seems another venerable member has run for the hills :D

I too am sorry to see you go, LB... though tbh I haven't seen you around in a while!

Your a flippin awesome guy to work with, and its a petty we won't be doing any more projects. Damn those things cheered me up!


I'd love to keep in touch, though I tend to only use Xfire, and I imagine you have better things to do then sit around gaming and chatting, so I should let you get on with your life ;) .

I'm sorry to hear that you're leaving. You were an outstanding member of COTEC and a great admin, we shall always remember you. Goodbye, Lightbringer!

On a side note:
Acolite, Lightbringer, Mistrea and many more - so much people leaving us :(.

Oh and let's say I also volunteer fro the Admin position. I have some knowledge about InvisionFree forums, and if no-one will be feeling up to it, I can take over.

It's a shame to see you go Lightbringer. I always enjoyed reading your fluff, especially the way you dropped Tzeenchian "politics" into a blender in LoA by making Lightbringer just disappear. It's a shame Pustal never caught you. :P

Also, I'll throw in my name to the race. I've been too lazy with my chaos and this'll be great motivation to revive Lord Gorash Shypha. I have plenty of administrating experience, gained from my two years at The Grand Alliance and now my work at Chaos Dwarf Online (roughly 6 months). I will make sure to expand and develop the Chaos Star, picking up where Bearer had left off before he last vanished. I see the Chaos Star as our key to greater activity, where players of daemons, mortals, and beasts are always there to inspire, motivate, and challenge us to be the best Chaos players and the strongest community we can be.

Okay, I think I am going to do the organizing for the poll.

For all candidates, please write a short letter saying what your mod/admin experience is and what you think you can bring COTEC by being an admin.

The current people up for nomination are myself and beaver. I sent Tammil a PM regarding this, and Snygge has opted out of the poll.

I'm honoured to be nominated, but this forum is my first Moding experience, and I haven't been doing it for that long. Perhaps someone of greater experience should take the helm?

Well tammil, you've gotta start somewhere, and you seem to be doing a great job being a mod.


regarding the poll: Nominations will be over on Sunday, July 29. At that point I will post the poll with all the nominees as well as their letters.

As sad as it is to see you leave, I completely understand where you're coming from, LB. My interest in Warhammer has dropped considerably in the past year, and with it my avaliable online time. It's a shame, but that's life...

But no matter - we'll always have those great (and not so great) memories of SoC SoS and the past few years. ;)


I had to make an adjustment there. *grins* ~Brown (SoS=Storm of Skaven)

I drop in for what must be the first time in 18 months to find a lot of the same people still here :P And i think LB was leaving last time i was here too :P

So i guess this is goodbye again LB

Anyway this can also be my reintroduction post

I Stopped Playing WH to concentrate on my last year of high school (didnt work) and then didnt get back into it. However ive snapped, i went in to my city store today and did up a 750 point list in my head. (Albeit for Empire). And im going in tommorow to purchase about 13 paints 3 paintbrushes and some State Troopers :P

And maybe pustal will return one day Beaver :P

1) Damn shame to see you go LB! You've always been a great guy, and I'm sure you've been giving more people than just me at least some inspiration.

2) Holy damn, BMC knows more about me than I do! You're right. I had forgotten about it myself, but I do have all the buttons around somewhere. I think. I'll look 'em up!

3) Welcome back risky!

EDIT: Ok, found some buttons, but they're the old ones. Guess it's better than nothing though:
