And a special thanks to Ryan for everything through the years.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

Don't stay away too long, drop in every now and then, and buy lots of toys anyway.

It's been a pleasure working with you and this place could not have gotten to where it is without your work and efforts.
Since I'm in town, you'll have to let me take you out for a beer soon.

You'll be terribly missed and I hope that things go well with you, your job, and your family. Please remember that you'll always have a spot here!

It is not so much my kids but the demands of the site, other things are requiring my attention like my new positions in the 501st legion, they will demand a lot of time.
Crazyfists I think we classify as oldie moldies...

The first few months will be tough, having gotten used to all the extra options and action you get in the post editing screen form thingy, but you'l get used to it and won't even miss it after a while.
And yes, IRW life is much more important than this site, and hell, a super awesome new position at the 501 should actually make you feel ashamed for having been here
But yes, I loved working with you back during staff days, sending you PMs that were basically just "Murder the crap out of the following billion spam bot and spam user accounts".
It's going to be weird getting onto the site and not having you as our admin, heck it was weird a while back when that was the case. But here's to you CB

It'll sorta suck having you not on staff. You were a pretty cool Stormtrooper.
Now for a really bad pun: I guess that your time being on staff sure has taken its Toll.

And thanks Bishop, for all the work you've done. This place wouldn't be what it is right now without all the work and effort you put in.

One note: a forum is as good as it mods. In internet world of trolls and spambots, you guys are awesome. I seen many a forum destroyed by this stuff, even sites that should not be (like Coursera discussion forums and newspaper forums). Thanks to our fine mods and our fine posters too.
