Tennis Staff: Difference between revisions

With the YouChew forums about to close and the community set to split in two in August 2018, {{MycroProcessor}}, {{CorruptionSound}}, Biodegradable, Metroid998 and theFXexpert all agreed to migrate over to the more Youtube Poop-focused YTPMania forums, opened and run by Smonge, in order to build a new home for the Tennis Section. {{Gamebop}} opted not to immediately retain their staff position, effectively stepping down for an indeterminate time with the closing of the forum on September 30. LaVieCestLol also effectively departed from the community with the forums closing. The rest of the staff at the time eventually quietly retired after a slow, inactive first year on YTPMania; Biodegradable made a final statement on August 16, 2019, followed by Metroid998 on August 17, MycroProcessor on September 25, and CorruptionSound on October 11. theFXexpert also made his most recent post on the forum on December 6, 2018 and never returned.

This was the era of a complete system reset for the community, when many of a new generation were coming into the tennis section very curious about when the next tennis event would happen. Eventually, {{mrdoognoog}}, {{Nubman41}}, Morshe and VidTens443, four members who were around for the twilight years in tennis on YouChew, started the first tournament on the YTPMania themselves, the [[Tennis League 5]]. They also managed to persuade {{dew}}, an active tennis regular on YouChew from 2011 to 2016 and the first tennis player to complete 100 matches, to come out of retirement to participate and extend a guiding hand across the new generation of tennis players. With much of the previous staff now gone, mrdoognoog, VidTens443 and {{dew}} all became promoted to the new wave of Café Staff on YTPMania on October 6 and October 22, 2019 respectively. The YouChew forums returned in a new iteration in 2020, and the staff migrated back to it, with Metroid998, {{VidTens443}} and {{mrdoognoog}} as the active staff members and {{dew}} as one of the two admins and leaders of the new site, but still acting as a fuck within the tennis section as well, much in the same way as RabbitSnore and Ing previously. {{Zekii}} became the newest member of the staff on April 6, 2020. The new YouChew forums however did not last, suffering a managerial crisis that ultimately led to its shutting down in the middle of April 2020, moving everyone back to YTPMania except for {{dew}}, who was banned from the site for about a year, ultimately ending her initial tenure as an active staff member. Nubman41 and system128 were promoted to tennis staff on February 3, 2022, while {{mrdoognoog}} retired from active staff on October 1 of that year. infinitysnapz was promoted to staff on August 20, 2023, followed by AngryLuigi23 on July 5, 2024 following the departure of both {{Zekii}} and {{Nubman41}} on the same day. On October 6, 2024, TheChutley, {{dew}} and {{Nubman41}} all became the first members of the staff to return to their positions, following a late-summer burst of old regulars returning to the community after long absences.

Together, {{dew}} and infinitysnapz were instrumental in the construction, opening and current leadership of the [[YellowTealPurple]] forums, a site with which the tennis community served as an initial foundation of its active userbase. This has made them both technically the first since RabbitSnore to serve in an official capacity as both site admins and tennis staff members.
