(Party Details Are At The End)
Acp Video Details HERE
Active Count For Corp, Sgt, & Staff Sgt HERE
Unmod WEEK (Due Friday) HERE
This is the end, the final retirement, my last goodbye. You will be finally rid of me Acp, whether that is a good thing or a bad thing only time will tell. I have truly enjoyed the 2+ years that I have been in Acp.
I have a few new people to say goodbye to. As for the rest of you, hopefully you are in one of my other two retirement posts. Otherwise I am glad for the time we had together and I am very sorry for not mentioning you. I will finish the rest of the my career below. The first two parts are on my other retirement posts.
1st Retirement:http://acparmyofclubpenguin.wordpress.com/2009/07/03/the-end/
2nd Retirement:http://acparmyofclubpenguin.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/and-now-for-something-completely-different-aka-the-2nd-retirement-of-shaboomboom
Here is the short version of my army career: I joined ACP Jan 3rd 2008 after meeting a few penguins on Mammoth fighting the Nachos and UMA. I soon learned that the two penguins that stood out were to be my good friends Boomer 20 and Peguin3157 (Did I get the numbers right?). I joined SSACP and got Top Spy and then soon I became Ambassador and Leader. At the end of August of 2008 I became 2ic under Kg. When Kg retired I ran for Leader and after making a deal with Ankita I won. Sadly Oagal tried to fire me. Soon Boomer 20 became Leader and I became his 2ic. I first retired July 3rd 2009. I returned in September after Meat was overthrown to become 2ic again but soon retired due to lack of free time and ambition. I returned my 3rd time when Dry was kicked out and Saint retired as Nono’s 2ic. After realizing that my time was growing short and that I wanted to try out a few plans I unfairly took Nono’s Leadership. Thus I became the ACP Leader.
I have trained past ACP leaders such as Saint, Dryvit, Stev, Ias, Matre, and Noka. I have caused 3 world wars, two of which were started to get me impeached, once by Commando, once by Person. I am satisfied with what I have accomplished and hope that more of you can accomplish and do what I have.
First my apology: I apologize for being a horribly inactive Leader. I wish you had all saw me when I was in my prime during Kg and Boomer’s Leadership.
I also apologize to Nono for couping him. I wish you luck and hope that you are able to reach Leader again.
The Thank Yous (These are just updates from my last retirement. Not everyone is on here that should be but there are too many to list):
Ias: You would have been a fantastic leader had you been able to stay. Thanks for making me main leader with you after I was couped the first time. I hope I made it up to you.
Matre: You have listened and followed me faithfully and without question. You are a perfect example of an excellent soldier. I give you the chat for you and only you. It is your choice whether you want to pass it on when you retire or not. Good luck with being the leader and watch your back, trust no one. I have sent you everything I have and if you have any questions email me.
Boomer 20: Ever since you started going out with all your GF’s we kind of drifted away. I wish you had learned your lesson the first time and manged your time better but sadly you had to leave. Good luck with your current activities and I hope to talk to you in a few years and find out what happened to you.
PS: I know this is stupid but I have now retired from ACP more times than you 😛
PSS: Thanks for giving me the Medal of Honor
Bobcatboy: You are a clear headed, intelligent person who I can always rely on to ask for advice or have an idea or post checked for flaws or mistakes. I feel confident that Acp will go far with Matre and yourself as Leader and Leader-in-Training. Good Luck.
Ps: I give you the title of Memo Man. Keep it until you retire and then pass it on to someone else. If you can, get Matre to make the Memo Man Medal. You are the 4th person to get it (Shab, Stev, Div, Bob)
Hattrick: I Love You. (No Homo) You keep me entertained on breaks and you always have something new happening. Good Luck. Keep sending me those guitar pieces.
Jediseth: “Insert BS Response Here” Just kidding you know that I consider you a close friend and that I trust you. Good Luck, you’ll be a good leader.
Dan Lorenzo and Sriv007: We have each helped each other throughout the years. You two have always made a great team and I hope to someday see you two as the first successful dual supreme leader team of Acp. I know that any one of you guys could take my place any day and no one would notice. Sriv…stop flirting with the girl…she is really a guy.
Jupiter aka Jet Nugget: You are annoying at times but you also proved yourself to be a good soldier. Good luck 😉
Buckley Beans: I have noticed you and I don’t hate you. You are an active person who listens to the higher ranks without question. You will get a surprise on Saturday :D. Good luck. I hope to see you get division general soon.
Noka: I hope the training is what you needed to finally advance in ACP. You are one of the most loyal soldiers I have ever met. Congrats about math, go out with the girl you like the most and will enjoy spending time with the most (Its more about personality, not looks, that will allow you to enjoy having the girl as a gf), and keep doing good in math.
Omega: Those arguments were fun, I just wish so many of them were not as retarded as they ended up being. If you practice arguing a little bit you would definitely be a good debater.
Icey: Turns out the mall is going to opened again 😀. Good luck with IW and you now get the title of King.
Luc: Good luck with ACP. I know you achieved your goal of making WW 3rd largest army.
Fox: Fox I will miss you. We used to hate each other but I am glad that we became friends. Thanks for being my BFF.
Draggy: I have no idea what to say….except that Ziggy can speak and your bird that I want to have for dinner can’t =D. See you on AIM. You have kept me from making irrational moves and have entertained me on boring nights. Your drawings are fantastic, if only I could draw half as good as you.
Twingy aka Tom: I never really got to know you personality but from what I have seen and heard I think that you have great potential. I expect you to become Leader someday or get a leadership rank by the end of the summer. Good luck and hope you had a good vacation.
Dryvit: If I could say what I wanted to say I would but since you will be screening this post, I can’t because obviously you would have taken it out. So much for my freedoms. You didn’t give me a chance to tell my side of the story, you had 1 set idea and wouldn’t change it. In my opinion, you were as rigid as meat ever was and you had no idea what you were saying at some points. I mean come on??? you didn’t even give me a chance to defend myself. I was automatically guilty. Even Matre’s solution was fairer than yours. O yes…other people were involved 🙄 it was still your decision to do what you thought was right and obviously backstabbing me and not allowing me to defend myself was your decision. If you believed me to be so guilty then letting me speak wouldn’t have changed anything yet you wouldn’t. Whats that say about your argument? This picture and song are for you:
Dry's Comment on My Retirement
Divotoo: No matter what your brother has said, I only lied to you about 1 thing. You really were suppose to be unmodded for unmod week and I let you stay mod because I thought that you would get better. You were too strict at the time. Your brother seems to crave power like so many and then use it unwisely to prevent others from getting it. I know he is your brother, but go your own way. Don’t follow his or you will find that you lose friends easily and gain many enemies. He might be a good older brother in real life but you have to choose your own path and have your own opinions. Chat is a good thing to use to experiment and see who you would like to be because you can see how people react on chat and then use that to determine how people would react in real life to things.
PS: I take the title of Memo Man away from you due to the recent events. If you want to know the full details come speak to me. It has been given to Bob
Motor: You hated me from the beginning but I never understood why. Even after asking I still was confused. I am glad that we could at least exist on the same chat together. I know you dislike being a member but you were a lot easier to work with when you were not a mod for whatever reason. Good luck with IOT.
Meat: I wish I had been able to get through to you and be able to teach you how to use the power that you were given. I understand why you acted as you did once you became leader. I don’t know if you realize this but after the coup passed I really never did hate you or dislike you. I just found you hard to work with but I realized that you did have a reason for being like that.
Katie Lou: I am glad that we met and we really are very similar. Thanks for trying to get me a Leader rank in Nachos.
Most of you know that I like to be direct, even if it is insulting. As draggy calls me her “favorite jerk.” Here are the people that I would have preferred to never know.
Oagal: I thank you for helping me regain the site when it has been stolen. I thank you for (mostly) not interfering with my leadership this time. The one thing I really have you here for is what happened at the end of 2008. I still don’t forgive you and never will forgive you for going power crazy and taking my spot as Leader away. I never got an apology or anything from you. Even now you act as it never happened. I know that you were trying to help Ias but you should have let Ias do what he wanted instead of trying to force him. You should have sent him emails and let HIM decide what he wanted to do. You shouldn’t have made big posts that allowed all the Leaders to see your ideas and basically try to force him to do what you wanted. If he was going to be a good Leader it had to be done by him leading his own way, not yours. Just give the site to the leader Oagal, it is your fault if you are taken off right away because you can’t just stay in the background. Give the site to the leader or to Boomer if you can’t trust Matre and move on with your life.
UPDATED: I was wrong about you. After talking to you I realized that I did blame you and hate you for the wrong reasons. I do realize what you were doing and why. I apologize that I have held a grudge for some long that was unfair. Because of that grudge I could never trust you which made me get people to chase you out of Acp at least once. Try to be a little less forceful when helping and good luck.

My Favorite Quotes:
Don’t take life too seriously; you won’t survive it anyway. – Roy Lent
If human beings don’t keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up. After a few months’ consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don’t keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working. – Douglas Adams (This is very true, hopefully all of you will realize this more as you get older. If not…then you must talk too much ;))

My Requests:
–I request to stay editor on the site
-I request to stay an owner on chat
My Pictures:
My Song: The video is from the beginning of a movie called Apocalypse Now. Old movie but pretty good. The song THE END is by The Doors, probably written when they were on an acid trip. Enjoy:
You can contact me with your last goodbyes at acp.shab@gmail.com After a few weeks I will stop checking this email forever. If you know my personal email and aim please do not give it to anyone. Anyone who should have it already does. Hopefully I will not be on chat again after Saturday.
This is the end, my only friend, the end……

8th Comment!
CYA SHAB! Great Leader.
Upi rule Shab, Always be a great leader and good luck in later life!
Cya Shab.
See ya Shab, you were a great leader no matter what anybody can see, you were great for ACP and you knew what you were doing better than anybody. Thanks for letting me be your Co-Leader when you became Leader the first time, and thanks for being my Co-Leader during both of my leaderships. You fully deserve the Medal of Honor I gave you, and I think it was the last piece of recognition you needed in your army career, having led ACP three times, SSACP multiple times, and high ranks in countless other armies. I remember when it was a goal of yours to be a mod in all the major armies, and I think you achieved that better than anyone else. I’m sorry we fell out of touch, since I had to retire the last time it’s been harder to get online, and until something changes, I won’t be on much for the next few weeks. I know we’ll keep in touch though with email and aim and everything. Good luck with school and life and everything, and thanks for always being my best friend.

Awww D=
You were cool Shab, still are lol. I hope to see you around a bit more, good luck in whatever you do 🙂
~Sklooperis~
Shab,
Thanks for always being there for me since Noob to Leader. You were the 1st Person to mod me (Even though it was a prize). I wonder where Mr. Bear is,Since he ripped off my eyes. You always followed the rules and you were funny at the same time. Along with all the People i met in ssacp,you are one of the greatest spies ever. I’m sorry for not being honest about what I thought about Shadow as leader,but I thought I answered you honestly when you asked me. All the complaints about shadow i got as 1.5ic I thought talked to you aswell,But i was wrong,and I’m really sorry for that.
I will hopefully attend the Party and be there to celebrate your last good bye. If I’m not there for some family weekend reason,I will always be on Email,or I will answer them 😆
Good bye shab,
-Matre
@Boomer I use “-” Instead of “~” (wary)
Aww Shab. We have had our days together. We talked, hanged out, all those good stuff. It is a pity to see you leave. You have always cared about me from the start. I will never forget you. Please email me when you have the time!
Peace Bro, 再见朋友.
Peguin21795
Damn .. D:

~! Diaa Lotfi !~
Bye Shab, again… You have done your best with this army. We will miss you, have a good life.
`Johny 4 `
well this sucks.
Bye Bro, I’m comming
~Hurricane
cya shab wouldn’t miss it for the world. ACP will miss you. You were a great leader.
Shab,
You were probably one of ACP’s best leaders. I’ve been in ACP for over a year, and for the first few months, whenever i saw anything mentioning you, i’d be like ‘who the hell is this person?’ Then, i figured out who u were, and i, like, worshipped u. Thanks for leading ACP through some bad times! Good luck in life
LittleGuy04
bye bye
Shab- Well you were a good leader (wary) And you listened to everyone i joined whilst you were 2ic to boomer and then became leader but your were good and i think all of ACP accepts your apology of being an inactive leader
Bye SHAB
Shimmy222
P.S I will be there
bye shab
Bye Shab, good luck in the real world.
Wings of a Hero
By fred317
Hi my name is William Crowe i’m a pilot in the U.S. Navy with my brother Charlie. We’d always grown up around planes, our dad was in he U.S. Airforce. We’d move from town to town, new shcools, new friends. He’d take us to the air bases each year there were newer and better planes each one better than the one before. Then came the Accident, some pilot screwed his landing and crashed. Dad was working in a nearby hanger and pulled out the pilot before the plane went up. He wasn’t killed but he couldn’t fly anymore. We found our selves working on a small potatoe patch in Idaho. The only thing we had out there was dirt and sky. Dad fixed up an old barnstormer. Me and Charlie flew the wings off that old crate. The Navy was our way out. Me Charlie and a long time friend of the family joined along with us with me and Charlie in the Navy and air service and Murphy in the Navy. We were all stationed at Pearl Harbor, Murphy got stationed on the most beautiful ship afloat. The U.S.S Arizona.
Chapter two December 7 1941
It was simple as any other morning me and Charlie were working on planes in the Hangar, We looked and saw Murphy standing on the Aft on the ship along with the rest of his crew mates. Charlie drops his wrench. “Whats wrong?” I asked. “Shh” he said “You hear that?”. All of a sudden i became aware to the sound of the whine form an aircraft engine. We both stepped outside to see what looked liked hundreds if not thousands of planes littering the sky. I soon realize that these are Japaneses planes. I tell Charlie to duck and cover. We see a splash in the water. A huge explosion rocked the oklahoma capsizing her. A group of marines runs up to use with machine guns, “Here be useful and help us take down these planes” I stare in Awe at this womdering what to do next , this wasn’t over yet, not by a long shot. To be Continued…..
It’s finally over, the wonderful legacy of the once great Shaboomboom has met it’s end, and it is time for a new legacy of soldiers to produce more amazing people just like Shaboomboom. Congratulations for your achievements and medals Shaboomboom, you will be dearly missed and remembered for millenia to come.
-Capncook
Bye.Even though I hate you..
LOL, you kept good on your promise!!! (Why are there no comments of shock? Dang, you were right, Boomer! Everyone was expecting it! (D))
I am sorry for encouraging Matre to impeach you, I didn’t trust you as far as I could throw you, for whatever reason. NOW TO MY NICE PERSON SPEECH:
Ahem… well, Shabby, we had our ups and downs. I must admit that I was absolutely shocked to find my name in the post with no bad words around it, and the pic of me and Cat is the perfect entertaining for me today. Seriously. It’s hilarious. We’re just all lucky I showed it to Meat weeks ago 😆 The facebook pic is hilarious, thanks for noticing it. (Does this make Meat a woman?) You’ve been there since my noob days one and a half years ago, I seriously doubt this will be the same army without you. (At least for me.) Thanks for training me when I first hit the big gold (owner) line, even though the training session quickly became a “What’s wrong with Meat” session xD I must say I took very little of your advice, as we are very different people and I tried to find my own way to solve problems. Perhaps that is why I succeeded as a leader?
Anyway, I’ve just discovered I have nothing more to say, except goodbye. But goodbyes are awkward. So, peace out.
-Fox, forever your dog’s lover
Quoting Div-
“You have a grudge against Dry, so you just automatically punish me, just because I’m his brother.”
LOL. Who does this remind us all of? Any hands in the air? xD
(rolleyes)
*touchs Shabs retirement post* In your face Bob.
Shab,don’t make such a sad post.Just reading it,and the part ”Goodbye forever” and the ”I hope not to come back again on chat after this saturday” like it broke my heart,even though I hate you.Like you could make a nicer post,not so hearbreaking.
*touches post inappropriately*
Good bye Shab. D: ACP will miss you. I will definately make it to the retirement party Saturday. :'(
Shab
Thanks for the comment on your post, I really admire that i was good in something more than just drawing, if you ever need anything never hestitate to ask, you already know my FB, AIM and my rl email.
Dragon 720

I’ll miss you-wait, I hardly ever see you active…lol thats a joke
XD
NOOOOOO!! oy uwere on of the best leaders and saved ACP. Why do you have to go
You served well, got the medal of honor, and have been leader like 3 times already? You were also in the SSACP. You served the ACP for 2 and a half + years. You have accomplished a lot. That is something almost every ACP soldier wants to do, accomplish things like these. Again, you served well.
Good Riddance
Sorry Shab, War has just came on my hand! You know what I mean 8)
~Hurricane
DRY YOU EDITED MY COMMENT DON’T THINK I DIDN’T CATCH THAT xDD

by shab. im gonna miss u.
I only just found this, but you know I’ll miss you because you’re a good leader, however things come and go.
Obviously, the most couped, most retired, and most times leader, but also a pretty good person as well.
Have fun,
-Twingy 🙂
Yo, shab we had fun. I will miss you bro, try to come see us on chat, ok?
