Given the track record of TSR Joel, when he was a forum admin, to say Im disapointed in your choice of replacment is understatement of the lifetime.

NOES WALRUS! :'(

Now i can't use your session to surf anymore, been good knowing you man

**Cmdr_Dezreki**

/cry

Walrus, are you going to have a going away party? SMILEY

We're gonna miss you.

Although, I will say, Raijinn is the man to do the job if you're not here anymore. Good decision. SMILEY

I <3 Raijinn. XD

**Walrus**

Like I said: I'm not really going anywhere. Just focusing on production.

And, as far as any concerns go, if you'd seen some of the mistakes I made in my past, you would've been disappointed to have me. Give Raijinn a chance. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

*cries*

Well, at least you'll still be producing... and I guess that's most important. Best of luck on the other game too.

Hey, friendly it is. Joel, avoid pissing matches with MxO players and you won't get such a 'lovely' response from them. Like the time you engaged us back int TCR days, and Walrus had to fix your mess. Good luck, you're going to need it.

**PBlade** · 04/02/2007 13:04:53

You did a grand job, and took the flak for a number of things, Your tusked presence--even if still omiscient--will be missed. Never have we had such a zoological public face, but we loved it. Farewell, Walrus.

Farewell to a great deal of things, in my opinion, but we'll see how it goes... Needless to say, I'm not too chuffed.

Walrus, I've seen you make mistakes before. Hell, I've seen you accidently post the entire weeks events on DN1 before by accident. And I still managed to pull a good time out of Death to the Destroyer.

I've also seen some of TSR Joels mistakes before. Things like playing favorites, "special forums" for aforementioned favorites, hopping in game to talk to the again aforementioned favorites, abuse of the system chat system, and a glaring inability to see where someone was coming from if their opinions did not match his own.

Your mistakes while in the past have been rather large, did not degrade your ability to do your job. Unfortunantly for TSR Joel, I cannot say the same for him. Everything I have seen him do would suggest to me that he is in fact -not- qualified to take on a community managment posistion. Let alone take over that posistion for the very same group he once got pushed out of.

**Aquatium.**

LET, Devs ... then Frog, now Walrus... its like the original team is being deleted by agents of the system.

When you say "overseeing", exactly in what capacity, who will be making important production decisions? From what you say that seems like it will be still you which is good to know and that Raijinn will be taking over the community role on the forums/website.

*wait seen you answer that as I typed this. Having you focus on production is great, and look forward to all the other things you have planned.

Good luck on your other job too Walrus!, and its been great to have you in the role you have been part of for such a long time.

Welcome back Raijinn and good luck in your new role Raijinn.
