Anyway, you did a great job on AO and I envy AoC players. Good luck.

Thanks for the great work you have done for AO. When you came onboard, AO really turned around from the impending abyss and into becoming a small new rising star.

Gratz to Means for the new and final ding of an AOer

This is a sad day for AO, for it is loosing the best leader it has ever had, and a person that truely cares about his players and the game. Meeting and talking with Craig at Dragoncon is always a highlight of the convention for me.
Oh what a day this is for AoC! Like a ray of sunshine over the battle field - We welcome you to these new lands, for I know you will do good work here.
Gratz on the new possition Craig, I guess nice things do happen to nice guys
Bye hope you do with AoC what you have done in AO. A great game to ...play.
Don`t forget to write.

From my hands I could give you something that I made
From my mouth I could sing you another brick that I laid
From my body I could show you a place God knows
You should know the space is holy
Do you really want to go?
Sil was the best thing to happen to AO and it's quite a large pair of shoes to fill. But if anyone can do it, it's Means
Ok now where's my double AS tigress...
bai2u!

Electronite: FFA also destroyed Clan hegemony when it comes to tower wars. Ironically the downfall was started by the most active pvpers. Another ironic thing is that the downfall happened due to pvm conflict. Silirrion: (We have pretty good anti-troll filters by now though) Means: Thong-wearing troxes will always be a part of this game and a point of AO pride. Keldros: Obviously reall trolls don't use conditioner Marlark: If this forum was Swedish in it's language .. id pawn you any day. 220 NT: tl7 is a joke most of the time. 90% of the people are double double dead. some are worth debuffing tho. Mastablasta: you guys are right and I'm wrong. Ebag: No. You alpha me'd due to the stat bug. More Ebag: I don't have any twinks currently, nor do I participate much in mass TL7 PvP (though I do go occasionally, usually just to watch). Questra: an MP in sneak eNSDed me and did about 20k damage in 10-12 seconds
So what about Anarchy Online and Age of Conan being different projects?... All this time you have been telling us that only Customer Service was involved in both projects. And now you are just telling us that you were involved from the early stages of Age of Conan?! As Anarchy Online Game Director?... Feels a bit.. :/
Besides that.. you were a great game director Sil.. and your presence will be missed!
The way how you adressed problems that were ancient and unsolvable in the past says enough about that. You seemed on "killing spree" with all these awesome patches hitting live every 1-2 months. Adding lots of new encounters.. the instancing and the engine will add another great deal to this game.
I know you ll be around sil and I want to thank you for all your dedication!
I am really looking forward to see Means in action!
Some fresh wind has always brought great things to the game.
Have fun and good luck with AOC sil!

Just to clarify there, when I was the companies Community Manager back in 2005 that is when I was involved in all projects including Conan as community is one of those shared resources. Those that frequented the AOC forums back then know full well I was on both. That's what I was referring to, not my time as Game Director for AO

Good luck among barbarians Silirrion! We'll surely miss you a lot. Thanks for all you have done.
Means, welcome and congratulations. You got a tough but exciting position. Be sure we'll do our best to spam you everyday on these forums. Good luck with all the new experiences you want to introduce in AO.

Thank you Sil for everything, although i've played ao for only a couple of years you've done a fantastic work with your team. good luck with AoC! Great to have Means as the successor continuing the work.
This was interesting coffee reading for me this morning. Sil, I am sorry to see you leaving AO, but I know you'll still be present. You have done a fantastic job with your quick witted responses on the forums, and letting us know what's going on. You leave Means big shoes to fill.
Means, holy am I happy it's you taking over. Good luck in the run buddy, and let's keep this game rockin'!

Sad to see you go, Sil. You've done wonders. I envy the AoC player base and have told friends I have there to watch out as you are dynamic as compared to Game Directors who are seldom seen and rarely heard.
Grats on the new job, Means. I know you'll be great at it.
