Shenna 1135 Report post Posted January 6, 2017 As some people have begun to figure out, I have decided to retire from the Elysium Staff. Multiple people have begun to create conspiracy theories about my disappearance and I’d like to make perfectly clear why I am stepping away. It was always my plan to transition myself out of the Elysium team after the first few weeks of the server launch. I was able to help transition the team into this new environment and help coach them on what to expect. My decision to step away is in no way a reflection of the Elysium team. The Elysium team is smart, hard-working, committed, and, most of all, passionate about providing an incredible legacy experience for everyone. I’m passing off leadership to Fenrir, who was the longest tenured IsVV member on Nostalrius and has been my right hand man for nearly 2 years. The job of QA lead is quite demanding and I was consistently spending 20-30 hours a week working to bring our players a better experience. I have a full-time job, a wife and a daughter, and hopefully more children in the future. I’ve had the tremendous opportunity to be serving the legacy player base as the QA lead with two different, incredible teams. I got the opportunity to sit in Blizzard’s board room and advocate for official legacy content. I’ve also began looking for an opportunity to switch careers into the video game industry and I hope that my experiences will prove valuable to a future employer. I’ve been really blessed. Elysium is in good hands and I look forward to what’s ahead. I’m hoping that someday soon Blizzard delivers to their starving fan base the legacy content they deserve. Thanks for letting me be a part of your legacy. Nano 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
