Glen, I would like to thank you for putting this into words. There were many questions asked and for some of us, seeing Ron go the way he did really hurt. You took the words right of my mouth and crafted them into something very beautiful.
Sadly I don't think DToid can go back to what made it great, but at least you're handsome. And thats what matters.

Good night sweet prince. It's to bad that it came to this, I can't speak for the others but I know I will miss your presence on this site. I think it is nice that things seem like they will end nicely. But for the last time, HAVE YOU SEEN DJ?
Riser, you are welcome to NYC any day of the week. I hope to see you again soon. I can't thank you enough for all of the laughs. You will be missed deeply.
I can see where you're coming from. There has been a lot of change, huh?
You take care of yourself, okay? Look me up if you ever want to chat.

Riser, you were always one of my favorite people on Dtoid. I can't count the number of times I laughed at your comments, and you instilled a love of Bale in me that burns stronger than me on fire to this day. I hope you'll still stay in touch, and maybe we'll get to hang out again someday.
Riser, my Northeast Ohio buddy, you will be missed terribly. I'm not sure what we'll ever do without your man-love for Bale, but you had best stay in touch. We will most definitely hang out sometime, friend.
Glen, you're an awesome person, and though I only saw you sleep 90% of the time in cinci, you even slept awesomely. I'm gonna miss not seein you around here, but I guess I'll talk to you on gtalk n shit. :)
Make sure you pop in IRC some time. Though you are not in there often, you make me laugh a lot. Your love of Bale has spilled over into others (me included) and we shall love you forever for it.
Riser, you are good people, plus classically handsome as the Bale himself would say. I'll definitely see you around though *hugs*
Riser you will be missed. Your time on Failcast has given me an appreciation for how funny and down to earth you are, and though I didn't get to ever speak to you or exchaange emails with you, I know that you will be missed by the community very much.
Best of luck dude, I did not know you well, at all, but you're love of Bale has infected me!
Hope you have a great life Riser, you deserve it, take care now.

I have personally become dissatisfied with Dtoid over the last week. I don't think I'll be leaving though. Take care man.
Wow.
This is super sad for me to see since you, Riser, and I both joined Destructoid the same week and were both brought into the CBM at the same time. Two big events in my life and I know yours too. I hate seeing you "leave" and I know you and I will still talk but I wish I could put up a placard on this fucking site that said like 'Dedicated to Riser Glen, the greatest Photoshooper in Dtoid History.'

Riser, you don't know how upset this makes me
Sad to see another strong member hit the road, really makes me depressed remembering all the awesome shit you've done. Time to hit your blog and read all those posts I remember fondly and those amazing ones I may have forgotten
*salutes*
Let's cyber later.

Ron was banned? What did he do?
Riser, you had to be one of the funniest people on this site. Your comments were funny, and your blogs, hilarious. With people like you and Ron gone, this site is never going to be the same.
Don't be a stranger, meng.

Aw Riser...don't leave for good man...stay with us in Vent, the mailer and IRC. Otherwise we'd all be way too sad. Thanks for sharing.
Shit, after realizing what I just said, I'm starting to see how bad things have gotten. I used to visit this site at least 3 times a day. I used to love posting comments and getting in the know-how. Now.... I guess I've just stopped caring about all of that.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Dayum. Mr. Rodgers is some deep shit. I've never really gotten to talk to you or anything, but man, this is sad. Well, not sad, but.. well, you know, you wrote it, I just can't out it into words :)
"It appears out battle is finally over.But, i will leave you
with the legend of the shadow.....
'If the illusion spreads, the evil wil live again. but if the two dragons
soar through the sky, and angel will fall to the earth."
"Soon... I will die and you will joni me.Farewall double dragons ha, ha,
ha!"
".........."
The mysterious warrior died, leaving no clue to what his last words meant.
but, billy and jimmy felt thier revenge was complete...
at least for now...
"When two dragons soar through the skym an angel will fall to the earth..."
That night an angel descended from the heavens and returned marian to the
double dragons alive and well.
This makes no sense whatsoever...OR DOES IT?!?!?!
OH SNAP I JUST BLEW YOUR MINDS.
Oh god. You just compared Ron being banned with memories of your dead father? While I can understand people being unhappy about it (as apparently he was very good to some people), this is a bit much.
I guess it's better him than the others that got banned, but come on people! Please don't leave the site and community like this.

Yeah, I'm with 007 here, I'm out of the loop, but then again, what lurker isn't.
To Riser Glen's point though, I've read the site since damn near the beginning and Ron was always a vastly entertaining and endearing figure to encounter and here about, whether via Podtoid and through awesome blog posts. He's what made me think Destructoid was worth sticking with when it was in danger of becoming Summatoid. LONG LIVE WORKMENG.

Good god, after going to see Benjamin Button (which was sad), you make a blog not only announcing your departure (also sad), but you use Mr. Rogers in it(sad enough to make anyone who grew up watching him sad).
Why must you make me cry?

Riser, we didn't really talk much but from what little words we exchanged... the awesome still won't come off.

Bu-bu-but, I never even got to know you at all Sir Riser Glen! I thought you were one of the coolest people on Destructoid when I was still lurking, and now your gone right as this year starts! Damn, I want you to know that you're gonna be missed by people you never even knew of.
Are you sure MRsadistic is gone? He made a sarcastic comment on my blog not more than 2 days ago. And what happened with ron?
@ScottyG
I am in no way comparing Ron getting banned with my father dying.
And to anyone who's thinking I'm "abandoning" DToid or leaving to make a point, I'm not. I just think I don't mesh with it anymore and have felt this for a very long time.

I'm glad we met and I completely understand and respect your decision. We have this in common: I started Destructoid because I felt like I didn't fit it in at any other gaming site. If we're not a perfect fit for you in the end, I hope you have the drive to find a new space or create one from your own sweat. Otherwise, door's always open if you'd ever care to visit sometimes. You picked a shitty day to be missed though with EGM shutting down ;)
how the hell did I miss this?
I know I hardly know you RG and I have you on Live. But man...just man.
I did enjoy the few small talks we had at the Baltimore Narp (and the fact you snuck away with the Anniversary Collection Strat Guide.) but damn man....just damn...
SFIV come Feb? send an invite and we can have fun fun time?
