Harlem, Over and Out TheSnake

It seems a long time since ScarsSpermDonor was last seen on the Users Online list, but once again Harlem joins the ranks of the ordinary player. Where is he now?


Many will be sorry to see the resignation of moderator Harlem. In his time as Bootleggers staff, he has been a dedicated helper and a very popular player. As his moderating times were not that long, a large proportion of players will remember him from before he was promoted, and it is to this level that he has returned.

Quoting his profile, Harlem said, “I have achieved everything I have wanted to achieve within BL and for numerous reasons… I have decided that I can’t go any further.” He went on to say that “it has been quite an experience being Moderator and one for which I am glad BSF gave me the opportunity to do.”

There was a touch of sourness in his resignation, however, as he told of his job as moderator being made difficult as a result of his “long standing friendship with LordPringleHarlem, who before becoming moderator was a member of The Regulators alongside LordPringle, still believes “[he] was one of the best Moderators Bootleggers has ever had.”

However, LordPringle’s legacy is tainted by the manner of his resignation at the end of the last round. There were accusations of corruption and cheating, and many people believe this is why he left, although it also had something to do with his own game which he now runs.

As stated on Harlem's profile, a senior member (unnamed) of the Elite Guard (the Bootleggers Staff) went “out of his way” to cause him discomfort purely because of the strong links he holds with LordPringle.

He decided not to give a long goodbye note with a thousand people to thank, but he did express his appreciation for BSF2000, 5litre and SK0116 (Lotus).

Harlem is now a regular player, is ranked Don and is currently a member of The Supremacy. If he continues to play actively, he will be one of the few people who have resigned from a staff position and still carried on.
