[QUOTE="BrooklynKnight, post: 1094548, member: 4490"] Hey Russ, I'm not really sure how to respond. Part of me wants to thank you, another part wants to apologize to you, another makes me want to help you realize how EN world is more then a hobby to everyone, not just you. If it wasnt for you (and a great many others), ENworld would not be here as we know it, nor would it be what it is today. Your hard work and dedication to this site, to this hobby, to the [b]people[/b], is is what helped it grow to its current incarnation. If you feel its time to step back, and breath, look at it from the eyes of someone new and fresh, to not worry about this and that anymore. We understand. You've done more then enough for all of us. I should note however, as I mentioned above that ENworld is more then just a hobby. People dont just come here for news or updates. ENworld has become not only a professional community, but a family too. Some people come here looking for friends, some come looking for reviews on what to buy, some just read the front page for intresting stuff, some come for OT conversations in general, some come to find work and professional contacts in the d20world. We all have our reasons, but I think Enworld is more then a hobby. For us all. You have good mods, and good rules (well almost...granny can be a bit too strict :D ). The news flows by itself thanks to Newhounds (something I myself did for a long while). Yea...you no longer need to micromanage. This community has supported you. Thats fine. Nobody has complained. You're our friend and we are yours. If you ever need help. With the site, with life, with anything. Let us know and we'll be there. You've given us the greatest gift of all and we cant even begin to start giving back to you. For the first time in the 2 or 3 generations D&D has been with us, there is one large central community that someone new can turn too and be a part of. You (and eric) are the parents of that community. Thanks 'Rus. I Hope you enjoy being just a fan again! [/QUOTE]
