Hi Neal,

I'd just like to say thanks for your hard work over the years. Epic would be in a much worse state without you.

Neal,

Thanks for all the work over the years. EA wouldn't have been where it is today without you.

I dont think that it is overstating things to say that the current state of Epic would not be the same without you, Neal. I sincerely thank you for the time that you have put in. You have stuck with it since Epic was even an official GW game, and I think that you have made a greater contribution to the game than any other single person, perhaps bar Jervis himself.

I understand your decision, and respect what must have been a difficult choice, made for the community and the game. I honestly hope that there will come a time soon when you are able to return more actively to development, and there will be a place when you do.

Thank you.

CS has said it all. I would like to add my thanks and echo the hope you will be able to stay in touch to support the game and community.

I have always held your opinions and thoughts in high respect, Neil! I hope you stay in touch, as your knowledge and efforts have been invaluable to the Epic community as a whole.

Sorry to hear it, Neal, but understandable. Real Life does have a nasty habit of getting in the way of hobbies. I agree that the current state of E:A is due in large part to your efforts. Your leadership will be missed.

I don't think anyone else has contributed such consistent clear headed wisdom over the years as yourself Neal. It has helped produce a solid game that will be fun to play and mess with for many years to come. Thanks for all your leadership and hardwork. I look forward to whatever you may still have time to add in the future.

Thanks to everyone. I will be around on occasion, so it's not exactly goodbye, farewell, and amen.

I'm late, as per usual, but I just wanted to add my appreciation.

Thank you Neal for all the hard work and time you've put into this. I haven't been around for most of this year, so I don't know what has been going on, but I hope that you manage to get things back on track in real life. You've put a lot of work into Epic, and I am grateful for your wisdom on the few occasions we've spoken directly on these boards.

Hopefully you'll still have time to play the game for your own enjoyment.
