    Wait. You're counting p0rn as "our industry" now? Mankz's industry, yes, but "ours"?

    ;) :p

    There's lots of old names I don't see here anymore, that said I'm not such a frequent poster here as I used to be some 10 years ago.

    Actually I've already left (last Friday was my last day).

    I came to a point where it was time for me to move on and do other things. I'm not sure how much you guys know but unlike Rich / Tim etc I was never part of the editorial team, I used to work on the business side of the company and it came to a natural point where it was time to move on.

    Hey ho on to new challenges :)

    Yeah I always had the notion that you held more of an administrative/management role having never seen your name on any editorial material but still, it's sad to see another member leaving so soon after Rich. It's not necessarily how I view it but it wouldn't be much of a stretch to consider that some people might see these events as comparable to "rats leaving a sinking ship". I'm pretty sure I heard that term used somewhere on the forum recently as well, if not in this thread in another.

    Anyway, I'm not calling you a rat and I'm definitely not calling bit-tech a sinking ship! :D

    I wish you every success in your new job/venture and hope, as always, that you still pop in and keep up to date with how things are going here at bit-tech every now and then :)

    Well, maybe "soon" was a little inaccurate, but still, it's not all that long ago :)

    I think Bindi's departure was used as an excuse to turn him blue. The man was getting dangerously trigger-happy with his privileges :D

    I feel bad for still not really knowing who the bit-tech staff are other than Bindi (former) and Joe. I gather that there's an insane, scary one on there, the one who's in a number of alarming animated .gifs. Barry, or Harold, or something.

    He sure knows how to ride a giant bean bag like a pro.

    Honestly, that just scares me. I don't even want to know the story behind it.
