Gang,
I don't know if any of you are sailors, but the phrase crossing the bar denotes the passing fromone world into the next. I've been the Scout Correspondent since July of 2003. I'm one of the last two remaining Corrs who were brought into the initial program by Q. That's a LONG time.
But all good things must come to an end, and it's time for me to bow out.As we say in the Corr forums, time for me to get my ticket to Blue Glowie Island punched.
We've gotten a lot done since I started this job, and I think that it's safe to say that as I leave, our profession (which is still the best in the game) is in far better shape than when I started. And that's not because of my skill, or my brains - it's because of all of the hard work and ideas that YOU all came up with and that I was able to pass on to the Developers.
Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I'll still be here poking around, and I'll be available to my successor in the event that he or she needs anything, or has any questions.
You guys have made my experience in SWG great, and I will always have fond memories of the conversations we've had. And, no - I've still never leveled a CH. 
Thank you everyone for the opportunity to represent you to the Devs, and I look forward to seeing the great things that are going to happen with our profession and SWG in the coming years.

PS- Whoever takes this job over, better get a monkey making skill added to the profession, or you're never going to hear the end of it from me.

Does becoming a blue glowie mean you consent to board PvP?
Well, maybe Heat won't be so quick to report me every time I say something rude about his parentage.
But I doubt it.

This is really the end of an era. 
I think you have been our Correspondent as long as I have been a scout. Thank you for all the time and effort you've put in for the profession and for all of us. And I'm glad you are sticking around. Being a blue glowy is just like being a Corr - except now you can say what you REALLY feel! 
Of course you had to post this at two in the morning when I can't think of the right words. So I guess thank you has to express it all. Thank you. Very much thank you.

Actually I have applied for the position myself. I've been a scout since day 1 and would like to be the correspondent.
Brisc is the Bloodfin PvP requirement still there?
