Moving to Sweden and leaving CCP

Dearest EVE Players

Due to family reasons, I’m leaving Iceland and CCP to move to my birth country of Sweden, where I’m looking forward to raising my children closer to the rest of my family. I wish I could be in two places at the same time - I am deeply passionate about EVE and the future of the game, and it’s with a heavy heart that I leave CCP, EVE Online and Iceland. But I also know that I’m leaving EVE in good hands. The plans you heard about from me at Fanfest belong to the whole team behind EVE Online - the many amazingly talented people working relentlessly behind the scenes to bring you EVE Online - and they also have the full support of CCP Hellmar. He’s overseeing a seamless transition of my duties, however we don’t have specifics to share at this time.

The EVE community is amazing and working for you and getting to meet so many of you has been such a journey and fantastic experience. I’m here for a little bit longer to wrap up and transition my duties, but by end of June I will have worked my last day at CCP. After that, I will be a lifelong friend and supporter of the game and this community. Farewell, fly well and thank you for everything. <3

Does that mean the themeparkerizing of EVE ends now? No more catering to the carebears, kids and idiots?

Always have a mixed feeling about Seagull, but it was Seagull I knew what to expect from her. Who will fill the position?

It saddens me a new executive producer has to be found. Especially with there being a chance of it going to a person who is less then passioned then we are. I am worried about a potential dreadful replacement

Good luck and have fun with your kids. I honestly have no idea how CCP employees put up with the shite they get from the players some times. I can only assume some form of self-medication…

If that happens I’d like to know what form of self-medication they’ll be using. I’d like to buy shares in it.

fly safe o7
