A double blow, leaving us and for a casual F2P game.

If I wish you success, chances are we won’t see you again and a F2P game is successful, so instead all the best. :)

I hope that you enjoy your new role!

Good luck, Sanya. Your thoughts on MMOs and their communities have always helped me think about it in a different way, and your ability to type full columns weekly helped me to procrastinate somewhat productively.

I enjoyed hearing about the various little bits and pieces behind the scenes of MMO production, and the past, oh, twenty weeks plus? have surely had benefits from your stay here.

'Tis always sad though when someone cool leaves... have fun earning full-time wages! I'll be there too, eventually!

I am playing EVE and it's alright... level V skills are a bit much.

You all need to learn to spell.

Good luck.

Good luck with your new job!

You were one of the best writers on this site, and almost everything you gave us was well-thought, well-written, interesting, and informative. I am sure you will excel no matter where you go. It will be a shame not to be reading any more underbelly from you, however. Cheers.

"Gamers will no longer buy the argument that every MMO requires a subscription fee to offset server and bandwidth costs. It's not true — you know it, and they know it." —Jeff Strain, co-founder of ArenaNet, 2007

WTF? No subscription fee?

I have to agree with many of the posters here. Your column is one of the reasons I visited the site so often. Really enjoy your wit and insight. Good Luck with the new community. I may have to check it out.

 Every time I see your caricature with its braids flung off to one side it would put a smile on my face...I knew I was about to read an intelligent, humorous, well written column. It will be sad not seeing that toon anymore. 

Good luck in your new job. Hopefully sometime in the not so distant future you can stop by again and let the community know how things are going. Until than, take care. 

Our spirit was here long before you

Long before us

And long will it be after your pride brings you to your end

Like losing an old friend, after those many years with Mythic/DAOC, good luck on your future endeavours, and do try to get back into the mainstream games again one day.
