Today on December 31st, 2008, marks the last day of 2kGr8t! And you know what this means! It’s reflection time!  Today’s post will be a reflection of where we’ve gone and where we’re goin’ here at the Loyal K*N*G! Today’s article will also marked the momentous 400th post on this blog/site. Isn’t this all exciting? Pop the Vodkas and light them firecrackers! It’s time to celebrate bitches (miss you dave)!

The Loyal K*N*G (about) was given birth on November 14th, 2008, and ever since, things have just been exploding in surprising ways, many friends were made, many connects were established, and, most importantly, many surprises were achieved!

Here is a rundown of things that we here @ Loyal K*N*G are proud of and thankful for! Skip to conclusion here.

Black Friday! The Best Deals to Increase Your Size ;D

This was basically an overnight success. Coincidentally, before this article hit front page, our site was down for nearly 2hours (due to a site on our hosting server abusing the system)! Luckily though, an hour after the site returned, after our host server crash, the article hit gold.

I would like to thank all the diggers that pushed this article! You guys rock!

Videos I posted on the site, but also sent to Digg that hit front page:

Final words of conclusion!

I would like to thank everyone that has visited the site, also bigger thanks to any commenter! From now on, I will be referring to you readers as the “Royals.” This is a way for me and the Loyal K*N*G crew to have you guys/gals be apart of the family. After all, this is what it’s all about isn’t it? We’re all apart of this journey together, and you guys/gals are the only reason we’re here! So thank you!

Now with the New Year (2009) approaching, I want to wish all of you Royals out there to have a great and awesome year! And we here at the Loyal K*N*G will keep doing what we’re doing! The future for us is a mystery, but that’s what the game is all about.

Special Thanks to all my friends. (R.I.P. David, may your lovely soul be filled with Adrianna Lima)
