Did Torquemadra leave the team?

[Valarion]

Thank you for all your work, Torq.

I might not have always agreed with his vision of "rough love", but his time spent here commands our deepest respect.

Thank you Torc. Please take a well deserved break and consider returning to us one day.

Saw yesterday evening someoning posting on destro chat about that in Zarbix stream and wanted to hear if thats true.

It seems all of his posts in this forum vanished?

Yes, he did leave and has asked that we keep the details private. He's simply moving on to other things.

Since there are certainly going to be some people that want to post snark, or outright hostile responses, this will serve as the only warning. Don't. I will make an exception on protocol to remove you from the forums immediately.

Please send our thanks to Torq. Anyone who spends time and resources in building this game is a game hero to me! We had many constructive discussions and I wish him all the best in his future project!

i really want to thank Torq for all his hard work, he have my deepest gratitude (as all the team has) for giving new life to this game

I wish you good luck with whatever you are doing now. In my fantasies i image you are working on a "Return of Tabula Rasa" Project. That would be awesome and i guess you are one of the few who could pull it off. Just see what you did here. Great work man.

I did disagree on a lot of his engi design ideas. And loved some others.
Still he was a force behind in the dev-team and pushed updates, releases and everything forward to make it happen on the server.
Thanks for all the work.

Another skilled person left the game, sad news :/ GL in real life

[Telen]

Shame. Sure theres a lot of people that would like to thank him for all the work he did.

Just reached the news about the changes in the staff...
What can I say...

If I think about Torquemadra, I think about the generosity, the availability in solving the users problems, education and respect, the desire and dedication he put to answer every single question.

Last but not least, the energy he used to listen to the players regarding the balancing of classes.

We already miss you,
good luck for the future!

Sad to hear, considering the amount of work put in.
Hopefully someone will step up on balancing and implementing class changes.

Not pleased with parts about he did. The we changes he did in the end was very good though. I find this very strange. For someone that was with this project for so long it seems strange to leave without a goodbye thread. Was he simply booted? That would be wrong. Hopefully the protection of the stupid op White lions will end with him. Its the only positive thing I can say about this. I whish him good luck with the future.
