Best of luck to you, Steve! It's been a pleasure working with you, and I'm sure there are great things in your future.

This really is disappointing. It feels like so much has changed in just the short time you've been EIC. It's sad to see you go.

We won't forget about you, Steve. Promise.

Sad to see you go, Steve. I think I'll miss the slightly awkward but always appreciated man-hugs the most.

It's been a pleasure having you around Steve. I'm gonna miss those reviews and articles of yours.

I hope life treats you well on whatever path you take next.

*single tear of manliness slides down cheek*

Goodbye Mr. Butts and good luck with your life adventures. Remember, roll your d20 to check for traps regularly.

EDIT: I am glad to see that Susan is the one to take up the mantle though.

Wow, already?? :( I feel like you became EIC just last month! You'll be missed, Mr. Butts. Best of luck in your future endeavors!

That was beautifully said. If you'll excuse me, I think I have something in my eye.

Well, so long Mr. Butts. You've done a fantastic job this past year, it's sad to see you go. Good luck in your future endeavours. And to Miss Arendt, congratulations. A great choice, I'm sure you'll do us proud.

Aw man, this sucks! I hate to see my fellow Dr. Strange fan leave. I will miss giggling every time I hear you say "I'm Steve Butts" at the beginning of your game reviews :p

It feels like it was just yesterday that we were saying the same goodbye to Russ.

Well, guess it's time to start speculating who the next EIC will be. I vote Nasrin's cat.
I'll be taking over as Executive Editor.
Guess ever cloud does have it's silver lining, with you as EE I know the Escapist will continue to be the quality site I've known it to be since I first arrived way back when.

But still quite sad to see you go Steve, under your watch I could always trust the content on the Escapist to be truthful, educational, and damn entertaining. I know that with your ability you will find success where ever your future will take you, just remember us fondly as you continue your quest for world domination.

P.S. Can Nasrin's cat be the vice-editor-in-chief? I fear the Escapist is vastly under underutilizing the little fluff ball.

As the newest Escapist staff member I didn't get to talk much to you Steve, but I sure will miss your genuine "Hey Jose, How are you doing?" I got every time I saw you, as well as hearing you on the podca(s)ts I frantically caught up on. Best of luck my friend.

May the God Emperor grant you protection wherever your path leads next Comrade Captain. I'll leave you a few minutes to say farewell to your old helm.
