    man, thats not real. thats not cool :/
    im gonna speak for my whole server, we will miss you loads! always there, when we had trouble. whenever our european support didnt give a flying peep, you were willing to help.

    i always said to my ppl there "dont worry guys, the american community manager will fix it!"
    nobody will be able to fill your gap, without you PWI will go down the tubes for sure.

    i wish you the best for your future b:heart

    oh wow ._.
    I said to my guildies on Morai Server a few days ago sth along the lines "I wonder how long v4l's gonna stay bc I really like him and the work he does is great" - and now we've got it >o< I should have kept quiet.

    I'm not someone to post very often on the forums, but reading was a lot more fun with you around.
    Sad to see you go, v4l. You did a great job, thank you for that.
    All the best for your way - whereever it may take you :)

    I always thought all CM's after spoons were utter stinking **** and I have been proven right a ton of times ingame.

    You proved me wrong.

    v4l and eatwithspoons.........the 2 CMs who poured their heart and souls into the community they loved. i was on the verge of quitting PWI when you came along, and skeptically, gave you a chance. you restored my faith in the game, in the company. you interacted with us not only on forums, but on facebook as well as in game.we are losing once of the greatest CMs we have ever had, and i am thankful it was not a forced exit. i know whatever you choose to do next in life, you will put the same dedication and determination into. i wish you the best of luck and all the happiness in the world on your future endeavors, and feel i speak for the community as a whole when i say this.




    we will miss you val

    You will be missed by me, my faction and Raging Tide. It was a nice experience to have you as a CM - information we got was fair, you sounded like you actually cared what happens in this community and you brought us great things like INI edit and better working bug report system (Quality Corner).

    Thank you for your efforts.

    I hope you get to train your replacement.... because you were actually doing some good here, and giving us some hope, which we hadn't had in a long time. Things were seeming brighter. Now I'm afraid they will dim again.

    But good luck in your future endeavours and I'm glad we got to have you as our CM, even if it did seem for too short a time.

    Best wishes on you next job. You will be missed here for sure. I wish PWI paid enough to to keep you around. High turn over in CM/ GM spots speaks a lot about how they value good employees as well as players. Hope to see you around the gaming world in the future. b:thanks

    Hey V4,

    It was a rather short but enjoyable stay for you as a CM I guess.

    Thanks for the definite changes we got in-game thanks to you, including the .ini edit possibility and the jolly jones bounty order quests (yay, coins~).

    I wish the best for you in the future and don't forget to pay us a visit from time to time.

    Take care, bye!

    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.

    I know I already posted but.... I kind of think that we should have the post/thread that started him being called Hey, You! on here, since it was a really fun thread x3
    He really did stick to what he said he'd do on that thread :3
    Did he really stay 'that' much shorter than the other CMs...? It seems kinda like it just felt shorter since he actually did lots of stuff D:?

    You are correct. His stay wasn't the longest but it wasn't the shortest either, that is spoons. It also doesn't help that Frankie was the CM for so long, it made v4l's stay seem particularly short. But he lasted about as long as other CMs.

    From doing some digging around I found this.

    So yeah v4liance was the fourth CM, and he had a 4 in his name. xDDD Which is pretty cool. Yet another way Hey, you rocked! His time felt so short because he did so much and really reinvigorated the community!
