Farewell Andrew Banner

Recently there has been confusion over what the Farewell Andrew banner means. Last month the long time head mod /u/aphoenix announced he was going to step down. Aphoenix is best known for working to resolve the subreddits closure during Warlords of Draenor when the previous top mod made the subreddit private. The creator of the banner, /u/vusys, wanted to make it more personal for Aphoenix by using his first name and in doing so led many to believe a member of the community had passed away.

The banner is actually based on his user flair which is itself a play on his username A Phoenix. The contrail of Maple Leaves refer to his Canadian heritage. That's all the banner means and we're sorry for the confusion it has caused.
