The time has come

[TheMightyShell]

Yo bro, you're cool. Retsuprae is a little mean at times, but they thought you were pretty cool. You gotta take care, peace.

[ISHYGDDT]

Rest in peace, Unregistered HyperCam 2.

[valentinoian]

But seriously, retsuprae is just for fun. You sound like a cool guy. Have fun out there.

[phonnix]

Don't RP the Bill-e

[Zolken91]

Billy, you are the man with the awesome plan.

[agmendelssohn]

Well, we hope to see you again someday. Billy, you're an inspiration!

[newyoikmabsta]

Good luck, Billy.

[GoldPooka]

...to say fair's fair. To pay the rent. To pay our share.

[gamingguy12]

Billy, when you become successful, have a great job, and a beautiful wife, don't forget about us. We'll always be waiting for you. Cheering for you. Come back, when the time is right. Carry on, wayward son. Carry on.

[Locomamonk]

good luck getting your own apartment man. You'll be remembered in Youtube!

[milkwad]

He'll be back.

[VerendumGames]

Tell Jacob to fuck off. Have a good life, you beautiful child.

[GhostReconGuy]

Billy, you've never had any haters, only fans.

[DZEMAG]

Hey Billy! Did you manage to find the princess yet or is she still in another castle?

[donov25]

We love you Billy!

[MunchingOrange]

Billy come back!

[lordoftrolling]

This sounds weird without the commentary of Diabetus and Slowbeef

[Z3ldaMahBoi]

:( Billy

[MRKnowitallaboutRFOM]

You're the best around.

[kulemv]

I love mah billy

[FlameHasChannel]

Retsupurae will never forget you, nor will its community.

[redfalconfox]

9/3/11 Never Forget.

[LeafyLeafsLeaf]

Billy, you are the GREATEST. I won't forget you.

[ThatHappySniper]

;_;7

[fourk1000]

wah why did you do this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wah

[MarqueeSeries]

Billy, you're the greatest. LOVE your vids

[IPITYTHEFOOLZ]

Haters win!

[billymc]

@IPITYTHEFOOLZ No, Billy wins!

[billymc]

@IPITYTHEFOOLZ As a matter of fact, I even said in this video, the haters didn't win. I clearly said I won.

[IPITYTHEFOOLZ]

@billymc Oh my bad I must have misheard you. Sorry.

[Zalman1337]

@billymc You win because the haters made you quit? Yay logic!

[billymc]

@Zalman1337 I quit because I have to take care of my personal life now. I made that very clear in this vid.

[Muaver]

@Zalman1337 shut up

[jimmyclarke16]

@IPITYTHEFOOLZ Billy always wins...

[IPITYTHEFOOLZ]

@jimmyclarke16 I realized.

[cowabungasheeit]

Billy, your sexiness is overwhelming

[ILuvSauce13]

Don't rp the lp Billy!

[Jakeallen86]

Billy MC is the greatest LPer of ALL TIME.

[jercoxthealmighty]

Billy, you are the man. Good luck to you in life.

[derekwd33]

Hey billy, I think your newest LPs are still great, come back!!! Everyone loves you too much for you to just leave....

[SDangerK]

Help me billy im made of silly putty

[21centurynostradamus]

good night sweet prince.

[arenapwner361]

Billy, you can't quit lps, it's the wrong choice, you missed the right choice.

Hey, you missed pal.

[gufu1992]

Billy, I salute you, for you are a man, now.

[Ofthedeepsand]

Billy, just because I liked the retsupuraes doesn't mean I didn't like your videos genuinely. I liked them because of your personality and tenaciousness. And I think retsupurae had some fondness for you unironically too.

[loldude83]

Bang.

[PoissonLihp]

Goodbye, Billy. ;_;7

[UnimportantGamer]

Retsupurae didnt hate you man they loved you =) the only reason you got noticed is becuase of them. You never really had haters man they where just looking for a good laugh.

[GrimReaper19]

So long space cowboy.

[jman3267]

Billy, did you kill Rita?

[octopound]

The time has come for you to become your own Mr.Miyagi. Go now, Billy, beloved paperboy; your future awaits. I'll never forget you.

[CosmicCubensis]

BillyMC you were a great guy, you made me laugh, you made me cry and I hope the very best to you in your later life. I know that you will do well and that you will surely be fine in whatever you do. Focus on what you want and keep true to yourself. Thank you for doing what you have done, and thank you for leaving this beautiful video as a farewell.

[RandomGamer999]

its bean one month

[hploveshack99]

I was expecting billy to sing nero's theme from DMC 4.

[Miyukipedia]

If you keep up that attitude throughout life, you'll be just fine.

Good luck, Billy.

[DodgingAndWeaving]

I only knew you as a Retsupurea victim but your a pretty cool dude I'm late as fuck but best of luck

[KantorekBaumerB14]

Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.

[nick11927]

billy is so fucking inspirational 

[silverwing789]

Man... I never did watch much of your videos but you are a pretty cool guy from what I saw. Good luck Billy we'll all miss you bro!

[joiles01]

If I could fill a diaper with tears instead of shit, I'd fill a diaper with tears for the sorrow I feel for losing you.

[CainNightraod]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOO BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLYYYYYYYYY WHHHHHYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?­!

[Convoicev2]

I miss you Billy

[KissMeImPunk]

Retsupurae will always remember you as the paperboy who gets McDonald's for Christmas, they love you man. Never forget Mr. Miyagi's teachings and even though Super Mario Brothers put you through tough times, it taught you to be tough and to never give up. Within each and every one of us lays a piece of BillyMC.

[KingKoodaz]

YOUR THE BEST AROUND! NOTHING EVER GONNA KEEP YOU DOWN! YOUR THE BEST AROUND! Never let anything keep you down BillyMC. You are a God in your own right, yet you never give up! COME ON BILLY!

[gqgqqt]

GOODBYE, BILLY. You were an inspiration and we miss you. Fuck the haters (except Retsupurae, but they're not really haters, they love you, man) and have a good life doing whatever you're doing these days.

[KantorekBaumerB14]

shine on you crazy diamond! good luck in whatever you do next billy, you were pretty good while it lasted

[06hatter]

Billy!!!

[BashyMcBashBash]

I love you Billy.

I always will.

[RokkerBoyy]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[lobsopdoy]

Yeah, I thought your LPs were funny, and you were funny, but I thought you yourself were pretty damn likable. I mean, I wouldn't mind hanging out with you. You always just seemed like a nice guy.

[markaged]

I don't think anyone ever really disliked you Billy. You ARE the motherfucker, Billy!

[iamthewalrus3654]

Hes still better than nintendostarpower.

[legendariosoul]

Mr Billy, even though I met your YouTube channel on a most unfortunate occasion ( RPSTE), I genuially loved your lp's, funny and full of life commentary. I do feel sad for your decision, but, alas, I do respect it. I hope everything to this point has been and will be prosperous to you and goof luck to you! You have in me not only another subscriber, but a respecting friend. Thank you for setting the ex

[PKrockin]

Speaking as a retsupurae fan, I never found your LPs that great, but I respect your efforts, dedication and skill.

[ElemixZero]

All hail Billymc king of the LP, RIP.

[protoAuthor]

Just to bring up a retsupurae joke that I'm sure has already been brought up, I'm chuckling that the last image you chose is "Paperboy retires in glory". That had to be on purpose. Oh, billy, you truly are the best.

[TheFryBoy1]

I heard about you through retsupurae, but i came and watched your entire lost levels run, and i can say you had something that most lpers lack:the fire and will to overcome any and all obstacles to accomplish what you originally set out to do. And as slowbeef said, you will definitely be missed

[UltimateZ5]

We all love you Billy. Your decision to stop making LPs is regrettable, and we all love you and will miss you dearly. Maybe you can come back to guest commentate on Slowbeef's next LP.

[protoAuthor]

@UltimateZ5

YES. That's an awesome fucking idea.

[darkychao]

bikdiponabus is still going he started in 2008

[protoAuthor]

I'll miss you, Billy. You're just stopping the Let's Plays, and not Youtube entirely, right?

I'll always find it hilarious how you started out kinda sub-par at Mario, and then grew up and beat the hell out of Ninja Gaiden. You are the most well-developed and multi-dimensional LPer ever, and the most lovable. Hell, I did a speech about you in my speech class in college.

[FerretTheFuzzles]

We'll miss you billy ;_;

[Makron5]

Oh come on :( Don't leave us, we love you. Also remember the door's always open. Hell a lot of people have gone into hiatus. Maybe you just need a recharge.

[futonrevolution]

This is definitely the most well done swan song that I've ever seen on YT. Not "quitting", but bowing out, and for all the right reasons. You could easily have let yourself become bitter and/or cater to the haters to build a "synonym-for-angry BillyMC" gimmick for e-fame & hits. LPing is all about sharing games that make you happy, hoping that they'll make your audience happy, too. It's safe to say that no one's exemplified that more than you, and is what the next generation of LPers needs.

[PointsofData]

Aw... :'(

Well...I hope you have a good life BillyMC. I haven't continually followed your videos, but I just wanted to say I did like them and didn't think they were..."stale." :3 Good luck out there! And Penn? Awesome, I live in Ohio. ^-^ Penns a very nice place.

[UntitledHome]

The final line made me shed one, single, manly tear.

[TheBNcrew]

Haha you sound like you have downs

[heyeveryoneimcool]

Best of luck, Billy.

:*(

[arenapwner361]

Damnit, Jacob has one.

[Knifegash]

Oh, Billy. You sound exactly like me! I'm graduating in May 2012 too, and I have to do my internship right now! You're a good man, and stood strong against the foul words of fools. Take care, Billy!

[pullahoko]

We love you Billy! Good luck in all your future endeavors!

[RaptorJohnny]

Billy, you're an idol. Glad you made videos, you're truly one of the greats. Love you man. Good luck with your life :)

[ToxBoxProductions]

I respect your decision. I respect you for making your decision. We were right to put our faith in you.

[Kryp7K33p3r]

You rule Billy! keep on keeping on.

[DMAN123223]

A lot of lpers do this and decide to come back 1-6 months later, although we should all treat this genuinely. Keep growing Billy even when it's without us.

[TheSVSexton]

:(

[TheCoincidence]

Billy should be knighted in honor of his work

[Ringmanx6]

We need a statue in fron of the whitehouse of billy holding a happymeal made of GOLD!

[trumpeter811]

@billyMC we will miss you, your truly one of a kind . Your super mario the lost levels LP in my book is always in the hall of fame of LP's

[Shadow78954]

god speed, you magnificent bastard.

[ColonelVile]

Billy...he's  grown up so fast, I am proud, take care of yourself Billy, come back and visit sometime.

[DivineFlamez]

billy we will ass miss u that enjoyed you

[Yeard491]

Billy, I genuinely found you entertaining.

Thanks, man.

[Ryusuta]

Thank you for the laughs and the wonderful memories. I especially liked Trog, since I grew up with the NES version. Good luck with everything!

[jacbros]

you are leaving alot of things behind you billy and im saying this as a guy who liked your LPs retsupurae and alot of other people are going to feel empty without you but i guess life is more important than LPs still this is really sad to see you leave when you have so much talent you will be missed man you will be missed

[flamingcake]

Billy... :(

[JanitorAntisocial]

The end of an era.

Then again, who knows what'll happen next? Perhaps we'll even see you doing a retsupurae soon.

[Flokkerdude]

Everyone must quit one day, you will be missed Billeh~ Mr. Miyagi will always be with you, as will I, as will we. Have a good life buddy. Here's to your return in a year or half a year or so! Cheers.

[DatWittyName]

Farewell billy. ;_;7

[JManQ1]

i loved you man. you'll be missed.

[yooo9999]

 BillyMC

Dec 12, 2007 - Sep 3, 2011 Farewell, Billy

[FriedrichAndrew]

And he didn't thank Retsupurae? You're killing me, William.

[JD12345J]

Billy you are actually the only LPer that makes me happy when you finish a level, that being said. Good luck.

[unlovingfilms]

oh billy.. you will be missed.

[TheBestVIP1]

billy, if you give up lps at least do a dule com with slowbeef

[pockypurse]

Mr. Miyagi weeps.

[kmoodyblues]

This is... kind of sad, but understandable.

Billy, I believe you are a genuinely good person, and I wish you all the best.

[nomars11]

we miss you

[Octary]

September 3rd, 2011.

Never forget Billy.

We love you.

[SoZettaSlow]

Hey! A fellow Marylander! I didn't know you were from around here, Billy. Well, good luck with your future endeavors. Hope life fares well for you, man!

[GiantPugTV]

Goodbye Billy. 

[Vimesy]

don't rp the lp

[LtheOriginal]

Billy, Thanks for all the entertainment for all these years. it's a shame to see you leave the LP world, but if that's your choice, then that's your choice, we as your fans have to respect your choice.

Of course, if you ever feel like making a random one off LP just for the sake of old kicks, then I'm sure your fans would always enjoy that too.

in any event. Billy, I really wish you the best in whatever it is you have your mind set on.

Thank you Mr MC. You're the best around.

[ChibiRaikou]

william?!

[glitchz1]

keep on keeping on billy.

[MrAbe345]

billy, i like you and your videos and also you are only one of the two people out of the retsupraed people that the retsuprae guys actually liked

[pointkappa]

Shake them invisible haters off. If nothing else, you'll have proven that you aren't as funny as you used to be by not being able to take a joke.

And I legitimately liked your videos.

[billymc]

@pointkappa "Invisible haters?" 

[billymc]

@pointkappa What do you mean by that?

[Skinnyoompalumpa]

@billymc

He means that the people you call "Haters" were retsuprae fans who genuinely liked you, but expressed it weird

[billymc]

@pointkappa Besides, I said I was quitting to take care of my personal life, not because of the haters.

[BlastedToitles]

It's good for you to "retire" now Billy. The end times are coming, we need you to rest and come back for 2012.

[ligeialovelace]

Billy, you are a truly nice person and I wish you the best with your post-grad life. :)

[goodmancharlieb]

wait, when did you get mad at retsupurae? i thought you were fine with them? you said it didn't bother you in an update video. did you mean other haters? like retsupurae fans being cruel? kinda confused.

[billymc]

@goodmancharlieb I am fine with retsupurae. I was just saying some of their fans were beating those kind of jokes to the ground, and being rude all the time.

[TheToast7]

William, there was a time when I respected you. You might've thought I was a hater, but I never hated you. I thought your videos were VERY boring, but I kept coming back, because you were so nice a guy. But now you're talking about how you "prevailed over the haters." It's sad. You were better than this. You didn't get offended by the stupid comments. You turned lemons into lemonade. But now, you're just another fallen angel, succumbing to the sad side of life. I don't like you anymore, billy.

[billymc]

@TheToast7 I'm confused. Are you using reverse pyschology or something? I didn't do anything wrong to become "a fallen angel, succumbing to the sad side of life." I think you're just kidding.

[billymc]

@TheToast7 Besides, I didn't say I was quitting because of those haters. I said I was leaving to take care of my personal life. You are making it sound like I am leaving because of the haters, which would be false.

[TheToast7]

@billymc Sorry, I ran out of space. I'm not upset that you're leaving, cause everyone gotta do it eventually. Fallen angel was a bit dramatic, so let me rephrase what I meant. I know you're leaving for your own reasons. The only reason I'm upset is that you got upset, and you broke your happy stride. Maybe to you, being eternally optimistic isn't as important, but to all your fans, that was what made you so charming, and what separated you from the other LPers. All I can say is, try to cheer up.

[billymc]

@TheToast7 Well, I still think you are reading a little too much into why I mentioned the hate comments. The only reason I mentioned them here is to assure people that I did not quit because of the haters, and I didn't want people to think I let them get the best of me, which I never did at all. Sure I did mentioned them breifly in my Kung Fu and March Update videos, but I didn't spend a lot of time dwelling on it. I still did my own thing, I kept being funny, and making videos.

[TheToast7]

@billymc Ok, I suppose I haven't been following along as closely as I used to, so I probably was wrong. Still, I just want to assure you that being positive is a trait all too rare in people these days, so hang on to it, if it's something you have.

[MST3Kbot]

Billy, I was never a huge fan of your videos. But I always thought you were a cool guy. I hate to see you go, and watching this actually brought a tear to my eye. I hope that maybe one day I can make people happy with my LP's, like you made people happy with yours. Best of luck to you Mr. MC, see you later space cowboy.

[punkflamungo]

Billy, what started out as mocking has turned into genuine affection. Good luck man.

[TheMountainMew]

Stay cool, Billy. Stay cool. :)

[liquid0001]

Oh noes!

[SokomameKokumotsu]

Some one told me you died, you didn't, right?

[billymc]

@SokomameKokumotsu No, why would someone tell you that? I'm still alive and well.

[SokomameKokumotsu]

@billymc Thank God.

[adrock4]

It is truly the end of an era.

[ElectricFeraligatr]

D: Well goodbye. :(

[twomanguy]

NO

[baconkong]

Don't RP the retiree.

[ZLFaurora]

Billy come back~

You can blame it all one me~

[DevonAlexanderHess]

BILLY NO

[jman3267]

Retsupurae did a genuine apology to you in their latest video "The Nostalgia Critic Jumps the Shark While Sputtering and Cursing About It.

And honestly, all the "hater" comments aren't serious at all. They might not be the most polite comments ever but in no way are they trying to hurt your feelings, they're just going off of an old running gag for a laugh.

Hope you still find some time to do an LP every once in a while.

[yinyang555]

It was more like a comparison than a real apology... I don't think one can really get their hopes up from that. However, they're right; you're very likable, Billy!

[85879]

@jman3267 they only said they were sorry because, well, that guy was so much more horrible than billy. Billy, im sorry, but you're bad a lp's and the only reason im sad to see you go is because rp cant make fun of you

[Ygdrasel]

Aw man. Now who will Retsupurae help me laugh my ass off at? (Disclaimer: I legitimately liked maybe one or two of your videos sans Retsupurae)

Oh, and before you go, could you look up a buddy of mine by the name of Xigbar31 and kindly disabuse him of delusions that you will be continuing LPs underground? I want to see him cry. I really do.

[slowbeef]

We'll miss you Billy.

[Ygdrasel]

Also, I'm going to go commission a supersized golden Big Mac sculpture in your honor. And gift it to Slowbeef.

[DudeGoofyGuy]

I'm subscribing to you to show that I legitimately look forward to your future videos

[DudeGoofyGuy]

A lot of these comments may be assholes repeating Retsupurae jokes, but on the other hand most of us also legitimately appreciate you (and check your channel often enough to find out when you quit). Even your haters aren't really haters, they're just people who enjoy you for a different reason. Clearly we all found you entertaining for one reason or another, and Youtube will definitely miss your LPs.

[Ringmanx6]

Guess its time to kill myself...

[Gamewitzer]

You will always be my favorite Hamburglar.

[RabiesBu]

Aw c'mon Billy, say it ain't so! Sure you're gonna be moving into the real world and getting a job to make the big bucks, but everybody needs a hobby, right?

Leave? Heck no. You are goddamn BILLYMC! Take a little break to let the juices flow, then dust your mic off and go join the goons in the Sandcastle. They will teach you their ways.

"Freelance astronauts? Psychedelic Eyeball? Forget about it, you're the star!"

Become a goon. Become...the best around.
