I guess I'm done

Perrin Aybara · 01-13-2010, 01:24 PM

An announcement probably 4 years too late, but I guess there's no sense pretending I'll ever do any more work for this site. You can go ahead and remove my name from both SMBHQ and NC. I'd appreciate it.

I'll still be lurking around the VGF Forums like I do if anyone wants to get a hold of me.

Good luck with that life stuff.

**Valigarmander** · 01-13-2010, 02:37 PM

I can still remember a decade ago, when you were still updating the site and I was a young fan of your comix. Damn you, life.

Have fun with life and stuff. If it's any merit, without you I probably never would've found VGF and become the worldly man I am today. I'll vote for you in '20.

Metal Man · 01-13-2010, 02:40 PM

Well, considering the bulk of content is still made by you (it just didn't get updated as much), should we still credit you for that, or just remove your name wholesale from the staff/NC page?

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-13-2010, 02:48 PM

Yeah, dude, I don't think they're gonna unperson you when you created the strip.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Perrin Aybara · 01-13-2010, 03:09 PM

Yeah, life is crazy.

I guess for now it'd be best to just remove my name from the staff list, and on the main index pages of SMBHQ and NC as the editor of NC.-jay

Luigiman7 · 01-13-2010, 06:35 PM

A sad day for humanity.

***Ace Mercury*** · 01-13-2010, 06:54 PM

Did you ever stop to think that NC was on your staff list? That it helped create the person that you are now?

Also, my hands are, like, huge.

Metal Man · 01-13-2010, 07:17 PM

I guess I'm the editor of NC for now, then, since Sean also backed away from it.

Man, talk about insane. I figured I'd go somewhere with NC, but all the way as it is now? Yeah.

...On that note, I am 9 frames into my new comix series, so I will be able to provide some material to keep the main site going (besides the nicely done continual flow of shorts I get).

Dizzy · 01-13-2010, 07:33 PM

You're not done.

YOU'LL NEVER BE DONE.

The proper edits have been done.

I guess you wouldn't mind now if I updated NC's bottom half of the layout to archive your old sayings while... having updated ones to reflect its new status?

**X-3** · 01-13-2010, 08:35 PM

Good luck, Jay.

Gabriel · 01-13-2010, 08:38 PM

...Maybe I should not be so dramatic over the site, but I'm a fan, so I guess I can't help it. Besides, it's probably best not to hold on to a false hope.

Anyway, I guess it's time for all of us to move on. Also, let's hope that, just because Jay Resop's no longer actively involved with NC, it will survive, and that we will continue to make fun of Jay.

Metal Man · 01-13-2010, 08:57 PM

Someone would have to kill me first to kill NC. I haven't been spending all this time just so it can die.

Redshirt · 01-13-2010, 09:13 PM

NC will live for ever.

Perrin Aybara · 01-14-2010, 12:51 AM

Looks good, MM. Thanks.

Keeping my name on to give me credit for everything that I've done is appreciated and the best way to go I think. I mainly just didn't want to give people the impression that I still did work for the site.

Like I said, I'll still be around VGF. So if any of you need my creative advisement for anything, just let me know.

SephirothKirby · 01-14-2010, 04:09 PM

So, I just want to let you know through a series of events (see: Val), you've changed my life.

Thanks for the memories.

Sean P Kelly · 01-15-2010, 05:56 PM

So long Jay. I'll probably be joining you in SMBHQ retirement sooner rather than later.

Metal Man · 01-15-2010, 09:31 PM

Well, I'll still be around.

Me and... the ads Kyle has. Yeah.

Gabriel · 01-15-2010, 10:57 PM

^On that note, can't you convince anybody (like Kyle) to remove those ads?

Honestly now, I should not have expected the original staff to have stayed on SMBHQ forever. I suppose leadership should be passed down every 1-2 generations. Or 1/3-1/2 of a generation. Blah.
