    My last day at 2K (but far from my last day on the forums!)

    Hey guys,

    I wanted to let you know that today is my last day at 2K Games. Many of you I’ve known since we founded this community six years ago, and many more I’ve met along the way. It’s been an awesome and amazing journey, and I want to let you all know that I’m honored to have been able to talk with you, work on games you like, and be part of this fantastic and close knit community.

    You guys are in great hands with 2K Greg and 2K David – from here on out, they’ll be your main points of contact and continue on taking the 2K Games community to bigger and better places. As for me, you’ll probably see me lurking around here under the moniker Dahanese (that’s my twitter handle, too, if you ever get lonely!)

    Again – thank you so much for the past six years. As I’ve said many times before, without you, we wouldn’t exist.

    -e.

    Elizabeth, it's a shame to see you go. You were a pretty cool guy who never banned me, even though you probably should have. I think I speak for all of the forum users when I say good luck, wherever the wind might take you!

    It was great meeting you at PAX East Elizabeth and want to wish you good luck in all future endeavors. The SITS promotion - from mask delivery to Splicers Unite in NY was a blast. Thanks again and Good luck!

    I'm quite certain the 2K fandom will never realize just what a loss this is, Elizabeth. You put a lot of heart and soul into your job. It's been a real privilege volunteering under you and getting to know you as a friend. Thank-you for working so hard to create the magic.

    Holy crap, I am going to miss you sorely. Thanks for organizing all of the awesome fun I've had over the course of the past few years with the ARG campaigns and for just being a great person. A good chunk of fond memories are with me due in no small part to you.

    I echo the cries of pain; I can't believe you're leaving. X_X

    You rock Elizabeth! Farewell!

    Love the user "rank" Just so you know as a new user you may be subject to a certain amount of razzing.

    LOL. As one of the troop of flying monkeys that helped work the smoke machine, lasers, flamethrowers, and other effects, I'd say it was a lot closer to The Great and Powerful Oz than it was to God.

    Little known fact: when you became a mod under 2K Elizabeth, she actually was able to tell you exactly what you needed and then pulled it out of a burlap sack. I received "courage" (it looked like a bottle of Jack Daniels, but she said it was courage).

    Does this mean we can pick on you for having a 'noob' post count?



    Hope you're off to somewhere that can contain all your awesome.

    Wherever Miss Elizabeth ends up, I hope she realizes that her absence leaves a Rift that feels like the End of the 2K Nations. But we'll soldier on, in Defiance of this hardship.

    Wow. What a quality company. I have become a great fan of Trion Worlds. Their customer service is simply put...amazing, and it just got better! Way to go.

    So yeah, wonderful wordplay.

    feel free to look me up over there. I'm going to be sticking with the dahanese moniker everywhere now, since I almost respond more to it than my actual name these days.

    Things won't be the same without 2K Elizabeth. At least Dahanese is still around.

    Best of luck in your new career.

    Bye Mom, the forums will not be the same without you, you helped us so much, and always listened to what we had to say.

    I can only hope the forum does not turn to darker tides now that you have left.

    I can't say I agreed with everything you said, but at least you were willing to engage in the conversation.

    Good luck with your new job.

    Sigh...

    Good luck, Elizabeth!

    There's Something In The Sea was the experience. The days I'll fondly remember for many years... It was that great.

    Everything else too! Interviews, live events, patiently absorbing the fan storm and bringing us so many interesting personalities to know.

    You are gifted!

    i know i was being sarcastic, i was just mocking all that fanfare, corporate mouthpieces come and go, nothing special here. I didnt like 2k's steam or nothing policy back when you were working here and i dont like it now either.
