I just want to say that with all the recent upheaval and change going on in the community....
THANK YOU to everyone who has ever had a hand in helping to make this game the amazing place that it is today and will continue to be in the future.
For all the invisible people in the back that we never knew about, thank you for all your hard work and long hours of dedication to a game that has helped shape so many different lives, whether you actually played as a character or just watched from the sidelines, know that you were/are appreciated.
Kane and Coder: Thank you for all the upgrades and bug fixes that you performed as well as all the witty comebacks and retorts, even the lice (for those that enjoyed it!) You helped to shape so many of our characters in ways some of us never thought possible. On a dark, dismal day, I could almost always be assured that something would happen to make me laugh until I cried. The game is much better off for having had your hands there to help mold the storyline and fix all the coding errors and bugs that always seemed to pop up.
Miranda and Zeric: I know this is not going to be an easy time for the two of you as you work hard to re-write the story line and figure things out again. You have both been amazing in your writing and roleplay with all of us in the community and made it a much richer environment to be in. Take all the time you need so that you can do this all the right way, the way you want to see the storyline and game progress. I can't speak for all the community of course but I know there are many of us who support you in what ever you decide to do with the game. Don't worry too much about us players, we are a hardy lot of adventurers (Hell, we took out BALTHY!!!) and we will bounce back just like the game will. Just know that you have the support from the community and we all wait with bated breath to see what the next awesome step in the story line is!
