Like most journalists and professional 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 editor in chief 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 Global Gaming League to be their editor in chief and with that, I will also assume an associate producer role with Epileptic Gaming. 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 GGL and Epileptic Gaming, 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.

Since you're going to EG, try to get them to be a little more even handed as far as their praise/hate of consoles go. I gave it a chance one week and felt like I was watching a PS3 ad that focused on 360 bashing - and I really prefer to not see such an obvious bias in my gaming news.
Have fun, and congrats
hope you do get in some podtoid apperances cause it whould be a waste of good fun not to.
Summa, it was great having you here, despite not agreeing with everything you said, and having photoshopped you into compromising positions you might have been uncomfortable showing your mother, you will be missed. By me. On this site.
Legally, I'm not allowed to surf other gaming sites, but if we cross paths in the future, I will smile my silent, resentful but respectful smile, and only ask that you do the same. And then later I can jump you from behind a dumpster.
I shall miss you terribly. I am sad that we never got to explore our editor/reader relationship in person.
You could always post a Blogger blog, y'know...
