Goodbye Destructoid, I will miss you
Pedro Blandino | 11:14 PM on 01.06.2009 33 comments



Like most <Members> and <Comuinity> types, sometimes we move on to bigger and better things ... or we just fade away off into the sunset. I wanted to write a unique post, just to say that I have resigned as Destructoid <Member> and that I am moving on. I know for some of you, you came to Dtoid because of my switch and you've found a whole new site to love as your own. I hope you'll continue to show Dtoid the proper love and I wish all the success in the world to Niero and crew.

As for me, I have been hired by the <Kotaku> to be their <Member> and with that, I will also assume an associate <Member> with <Joystiq>. So, you know, I'm not fading away into the sunset, I'll just be somewhere else.

I want to say thank you to everyone who read Destructoid, ran Destructoid, and who have given their time and effort into making it one of the best video game sites on the Web. What Dtoid does is something truly unique, and I hope each and every one of you can see that. And I also hope that my time and effort put into the site has made your involvement that much better.

At <kotaku> and <Joystiq>, I hope to bring that same edge and level of authenticity that you saw from me at Dtoid. I encourage you to check both out while still at the same time giving Dtoid the proper amount of love it absolutely deserves.

Again, I thank you all and I wish everyone the best.

Goodbye Destructoid, I will miss you.

--<Pedro Blandino>
