That had to be one of the hardest clicks Ive ever had to click for an email....now...its up to the developers...





Now...this, will be interesting...








Right there with you...I also submitted my app...Although I have probably have about as much a chance of getting it (due mostly to my *cough* constructive *cough* criticism of people like TH and Tyrant) as me winning getting a date with Jessica Simpson LOL


GOOD LUCK TO ALL WHO SUBMITS!


I am sure whoever wins will do an admirable job. Garvin can never be replaced.

Holy crap.


Garvin, don't let all my anti-rebel comments fool you; you're a great correspondent. Don'tabandonus, mein fuhrer!


I kind of wondered if a big announcement was coming; while we all got worked up about the sandbox not being live with only two days left in January, I checked your forum posts and noticed that you'd been strangely quiet around us.


I didn't expect it to be this, though.


Garvin, I don't think there's anyone that could do half as good a job as you have with leading this band of brothers. Hell, I don't think anyone else would have us!


Don't step down, Garvin; this community needs you.






Okay, just so I know, which part of me asking Garvin not to step down did some jackass find so disturbing that they just had to one-star me?


Probably a FS monkey again.





Just do what I do...Turn the damned rating system off...


Let them one star ya...

It's less about the one-star and more about the fact that someone apparently disagrees with me asking Garvin to stay.

Sorry to see you step down, you did a mighty fine job. I'd hate to have to follow your act.

Oh, and I almost forgot...


Some commandos have done goodbye salutes.

Some have done a flamethrower salute.

Some have done 21-flamer salutes.


I would, but that just isn't my style.


So, instead, I offer this...


/run 1812overture.mp3

/21TankSalute

You will be sorely missed.


Though it is good to hear you aren't leaving completely and will still be around.

Very kind jesture on your part, in the first place, since I know you will not leave us. It gives us an extra spot in the Sandbox. Thanks for all your have done for our community. The best correspondent any profession has ever had.


When, and if, you consider ever being a correspondent again, you've got my vote.


BTW, if I may, are there any recomendations you could give us as to whom would be a good replacement?


Cheers.





Tons...I think there are volumes of involved folks in this forum who would make a great commando Correspondent...some names that spring to mind are(and I'm likely leaving a lot of names out not on purpose...sorry if I fogetting anyone...I'll likely add later...and these are in no particular order):



  • Starnick

  • TK-132

  • JohboBocal

  • RankorCity

  • BravenIrish

  • Razerwolf

  • Hellshot

  • Ryubushi

  • Skeptic666

  • aeuralis

  • and of course, our old Correspondent Lordseckmoth

All of the above mentioned names have constantly shown a passion for our profession, a demonstrated knowledge of our issues, have been constant posters,and have been with us for a long time (demonstrated dedication). I encourage EVERYONE to apply when Tiggs makes her post application post.

Though I'm sure we're all honored to have been named, I'm also quite sure that we'd all prefer to keep you as correspondent.


Not so-subtle hint: Don't step down. Pretty please, with a rocket launcher on top?
