I just thought i'd post a topic to let the community know that i'll be leaving PALGN and stepping down as General Manager effective immediately. Unfortunately (?) with my full time career progressing really well i just don't have the time to devote to the site anymore.

I want to wish everyone on the team the best of luck and thankyou to the wonderful community for their incredible support of the site over the past few years!

Thank Luke. I just want to say what an asset you've been to the site over the years.

Back in 2007 you pretty much wrote 80% of the site's content.

We'll miss you & I'm sorry to see you go. Best of luck in your future.

You will be missed but you will not be forgotten too, from being a PALGN's Administrator to being proposed by Puddingfork for marriage (I think I will remember the latter one more, sorry icon_razz.gif).

Being new on the scene I have missed about 99.9% of all you did for PALGN.

But I will still say Farewell and Good Luck!

pfft - perfect time to be getting them away from wanting games that should be rated R so we can get them.

/shifty-eyes.

best of luck mate, i can't say i've not noticed your absence recently, but i'm glad it's for positive reasons.
