Nobody who really leaves ever announces it. They just disappear. Everything else is just being a drama queen.

I agree that it is fun to reminisce about the \'old days\' when PS was brand new and remember the people who used to post then. Obviously as a mod I disagree that we mods do a crappy job modding these forums. :-)

My theory on why the old guard aren\'t around as much is because from their standpoint everything that can be said has been said. Every wish list item has been debated ad nauseam. Every n00b question has been answered 100 times. Even Kada gets impatient with them now.

CB\'s release will definitely bring a new flood of newbies and morons to these forums, but it will also bring new things for us all to talk about. And from that, some of the new people will prove themselves and be accepted by the happy few who have stuck around all this time.

But it is important to realize that the \"community\" is definitely a fluid, changing thing. Holding on to the past because of its familiarity, and criticizing the present because of its lack of familiarity is not a recipe for satisfaction on a forum or in life.

As a long time dev, I am very glad that some people have stuck with us (even off and on) this long. Seeing their hopes from 2 years ago fulfilled now instead of watching their hopes dashed like the dust from 1000 dead vapor free projects that disappeared 2 months later gives me a lot of satisfaction. I appreciate all the new people who find us--it isn\'t their fault they didn\'t find us in 2001 or 2002--but I appreciate the oldbies as well.

- Vengeance

p.s. Now if I can just get the oldbies to talk about something other than forum moderation policies... :-)


Sometimes this guy has a good point.  I have been around this board a lot longer than most would guess.  I\'ve been reading this stuff for awhile now.  

If you want to leave, leave!  If you got something to say, stay!  It\'s pretty much as simple as that.
Doing things just for the halibut.

Y\'know I never have really had any problem with the community here. Sure I dont agree with what everone says but I have never disliked someone for it.

I\'m sorry your leaving Drak.

Im getting the impression people are talking each other into believing the community is going downhill. Everything always seems better in the past then it was. And until now i like this community and have not seen reason not to.
If your opponent is willing to die for his cause, he and you have the same goal set in mind.

couldn\'t have said it better myself... *note to self: talk someone into believing that the community is going uphill. A self fulfilling prophecy*

G\'bye and good luck. Hopefully we\'ll see you in Crystal Blue.
