Would anyone care if I quit? I wouldn’t be surprised if the answer is no. Ok, listen, a year ago I told you that if you didn't upload it onto the blog soon, somebody was going to find it. You can't blame me, I tried to warn you, I saw this happening.

And also, is that really a reason to quit? Its not our fault that someone else looked up on Google "PBS Hoilday 2015", it was literally in plain sight, you had little time to reveal it. Once people found it, a few people who know about this wiki come here, and say "You forgot the code (Insert Kart Kingdom Code Here). Once codes go public, they have to be added to the list. And also, literally everyone in Kart Kingdom has already been putting it on their own lists. I've seen it been mentioned about one hundred times already. Heck, even Luam667 knew about it, and she's an extremely popular user. Its not anyone's fault that the code was in plain sight. That's like if you owned the British Empire back when it was massive, found an island, and just put one little sign on it saying "NOTE: THIS BELONGS TO THE BRITISH EMPIRE PLEASE DO NOT STEAL IT". Its going to be found at some point.

And also, how was it that person's fault to announce it!? Its not like the moment you go to that PBS Page your greeted with loud sirens and someone saying over and over "THE CODE ON HERE HAS BEEN FOUND DO NOT ANNOUNCE IT". It was a three step process for them, they looked up "PBS Hoilday 2015", found the code, and announced it thinking no one knew about it. They aren't going to go to every single Kart Kingdom Fandom in existance and start saying "Was this code found already?", heck, literally 90% of players don't even know there IS a Kart Kingdom Fandom Base.

See, this is why when I found the code PBSVAN I announced it as soon as I possibly could, the secret code sticker was on #KartKingdom twitter, I knew it would be a matter of time until somebody found out about it, so not even ten hours later, people knew about it because I told everyone about it. That's why I never approved of this "Secret Code staying secret" thing, and also, look what KWSU did. Some codes stayed secret, so he could just figure out the code and reveal it without telling anyone while everyone talked about when they would release it.

Everytime a secret code is found, it takes the same route.

1. Its found.

2. Its leaked onto the blog.

3. Some people start to find out about it.

4. Those people share it to other people.

5. Soon, those other people share it to more people.

6. Those people share it to other people.

7. Those people keep sharing it to other people.

See a pattern here? This goes on almost endlessly, there is almost no way to stop it, unless of course PBS Kids just decides to shut down Kart Kingdom. But it would still be floating around the internet for decades. I recently found a old coloring sheet from Applebees, that was STILL floating around after 15 years of being added to the internet. The loop goes on for ages.

Listen, I'm not mad at you, I'm just giving you some constructive criticism, I hope next time when you find a code you go my way and release it as soon as possible, because then there isn't a risk for what just happened. Its like having a password being "123456789", someone will figure it out at somepoint. Come on, its not the person's fault they happened to find a secret code in plain sight
