You have people who leave CCP, who you think of like…mehhh… too bad (s)he is going. And you have people who leave, you are like WTF NOOOOOOOO WHYYY INSERT MORE DRAMA THOUGHTS.
You are one of the last. When you say CCP, you say CCP Guard. I will buy you a beer at Evesterdam and you will be missed a lot!
Best of luck out there guard. I’ve given CCP a lot of ■■■■ for decisions recently, But you were always the one guy who I could never grow to hate because you are such a great guy. Fly safe and good luck with the new career.
o7 you will be missed. You’ve been a constant presence for my whole EVE experience and you’re also the first dev I’ve met. It’s been a pleasure co-hosting EVE TV during fanfests and being a “lighthouse” at the end of Permaband performing stage .
I wish you the best of luck in your next career and I know you’re going to rock it
Really hope you’ll make it to EVE North, but even if you won’t, I’m sure I’ll see you at a fanfest in Iceland.
I can only echo the sentiments and genuine love and respect for you that have already been said so far, on what I’m sure will become the greatest and longest threadnaught in Eve history.
Guard, it’s been a pleasure getting to know and work with you over the last year. You’ve been the face of the game for so long, I don’t know what it’s going to be like without you. You’ve been critical to making the CSM what is today, bringing it back from the brink a few years ago. I’ve known and worked with a lot of MMO community guys over the years, and you are the best I’ve ever seen, and probably always will be.
Good luck in the new gig, and next time you’re in DC, let’s hang out.
