Volt deserves a standing ovation for all the hard work that he has poured into DD. He will be missed.
K. Who are you?
I know ^____^

But I bet you don't have graphs. You're not so powerful now, are you?

So it's someone from that tiki place. Any reason they're an admin here too? Our new coder perhaps?

Eye candy.

Or my other guess being that he's going to be handling DrunkDuck from a financial standpoint and taking the site in whatever direction is required to make it both fun and profitable.

Hah.

So, would it be safe to say that perhaps mrdweedles is riding into drunkduck on a pale horse?

Has he been making the site more fun since 1-28-2008? I don't feel any happier.

Bye Dylan,

It was cool to hang out with you the few times we met.

You will be missed but I am not sad to see you go. I think it was time. I've been around since the Penny Arcade rip off days and I know your heart went out of DD a long time ago & it became a job to you even before the PS take over. Back in the day I know you used to post some pretty cool stuff in the news posts when you came across it, about the time you stopped doing that I knew this had become a lot of work and not so much fun. I'm glad you've been enjoying Tiki Island and I bet you have a lot of other ideas you want to try. I hope you now will get the chase to persue those dreams and find some projects that can be as much a labor of love as DD was once for you.

You'll always be welcome here & I'm sure we'll always be more then happy to accept any help you can give but I hope this opening the way to new dreams.

Man, Volte left now too. Feels like everyone's jumping ship…

Oh well, good luck with your future endeavors, sir.

I hope my complaining about the gigcast feed being moved off the 2007 front page redesign didn't upset him.

I think most of us had the feeling that Volte6 “spiritually” left Drunk Duck a long time ago.

This just makes it official.

For those that don't know me:

I work for platinum studios and oversee DD now. I knew Volte when he built the first version of DD ages ago and actually got him his first gig as a PHP developer. To be honest, his talent got him the gig. I just opened the door. He and I have worked on many project together since, including mrtiki.com.

Volt brought me over to platinum. I'm in the process of building a development team to fill our late mr. volte's large shoes.

Please bare with me as we transition.

Who do I blame for his blatant misuse of AJAX?

Volte!… He'll willingly admit to some of the very experimental nature of some of the code that he used on millsberry, just sayn.

So basically your job is going to be handling everyone's complaints, overseeing this team and handling all the administrative stuff of that team.

Very large shoes to fill indeed. But I suppose as much as we can offer is the support of the community. Volte got some awesome stuff done, so here's to hoping you guys can keep it up for him as a legacy.

Thanks for the support everyone!

Comixpedia did me the honor of a sort of ‘exit’ interview here

Whoa, well…see ya around Volte. I wish you luck, but don't be a stranger now!

I can't help but be even more worried now though, first Platinum's running out of money supposedly, now DD's admin has mostly left the building, who's going to be here to save DD if some evil villain yanks the plug? ;_;
