Thread: The Road goes ever on and on....

I am moving on from Turbine and I wanted to thank all of you for a wonderful experience. The creation of the Warden class is the one thing I am most proud of during my time at Turbine. I will always remember Steve, cookys, ferrets and all of your wonderful stories about becoming Wadens.

And whither then? I cannot say.

Blessings to wherever you go Graalx2, wish you all the best.

Thank you for everything you've done for the warden community.

I havent rolled a warden, but all the same good luck to you on your endeavors and thanks for all you've done for the class. I often find myself looking upon wardens with a combination of wonder and envy as I roam Middle Earth. You deserve to be proud of it.

I wish you well on your travels Graal

Sorry to see you go Graalx but I wish you well wherever your path will take you next.

Good luck on your next adventure

The warden is by far the best MMO class I've played, thank you for that.

All the best.

I can say like many here that the Warden class which became my main after the class came is the best way to enjoy adventuring through Middle Earth.

Thankyou!
All the best for the future Graalx2

Farewell, Graalx2. Good luck!

If you can create a great class as warden, you'll do great wherever you go. Thank you very much and good luck!

Turbine wont destroy Lotro, WB will. goodbye Graal, I'd like to thank you for everything you've done to Wardens, Guards & Captains.

This is very sad news, Graalx2. I hope lots of good things happen for you and soon.

Sad to see you go man.

Best of luck in your future quests.

Best of luck to you.

There may have been some arguing over some class designs, but we will miss you for sure.

Thank you for all your efforts while working on this game.
The warden class is an excellent example of you being able to think outside the box.
It is a wonderful class with a great mechanic to play.

It is sad to see you go - I wish you all the best on your future endeavors.

Graal, I would like to thank you. The creation of this class has given me many hours of enjoyment. I would have never stuck to lotro if not for the warden. It is the single best class in any game ever created! Im sad to see you go, but I wish you the best of luck in your travels.

Ah sad news.
Your creation is what keeps me in the game after all this years, thanks for that.
I wish you only the best on your next adventure.

Where will your road move on to?

Many thanks, and all the best for the future

Best of luck to you sir.

Thank you for creating my favorite class that I've played in over 30 years of gaming.

So sorry to see you go. Love my warden, and so much of the other things I've seen your name pop up on. you'll be missed.

Best wishes to you and your new endeavor. May it not be long til you get to it (unless you'd like it to be of course.)

Without you, my warden will only become a waden!, You shall be missed. May you find joy wherever life takes you!

Best of luck, Graal. I hope your road takes you good places.

Good luck out there, OG Waden. Don't forget your cookys.

I never got too deep into the Warden class, but I just wanted to say thank you for all of your hard work at Turbine, Graal. Your talent will be deeply missed!

wherever the road may lead you.

You'll be sorely missed!

The warden was an incredibly unique and intricate class, when I first heard it I was worried about about the overlap and future of the guardian class. But once I rolled one many moons ago in Moria it was clear it was created with care and compassion for all class while occupying a unique space in Middle Earth. I stuck with the Guardian but I hope your proud of your achievements as we are Graal and all the best in the future.

Wardens are one of the most interesting, complex class created and we thank you immensely for that. With your skills your future is rosy and promising. Hate to see you go,

Cheers Mate.

*war cry!

You will be missed, sir! Thank you for everything you've done for Lotro, and I wish you all the best in the future.

A victim of the WB announcement about "restructuring"?

Fair winds and safe travels, G. Remember, there will always be seats available at the unofficial Turbine Gen Con party Friday night.

Your clear communications with the players, quick acknowledgement when things weren't working as intended, and the give and take on the forums will be long remembered.

And yeah, Waden's are awesome! Incredible fun to play.

Thanks for giving us a chance to say farewell.

Best of luck in all your future endeavors.

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.

Best of luck to you sir

Talentuous and creative people as you are not numerous. You gave life to the Warden and you did it well.
I wish you the best for your next adventure. Dont give up.

Sorry to hear this...

Thanks for everything you've done for the game, big and small. Best of luck to you wherever the road may take you.

/salute

Sad to see you go! Thanks for all the years making Champs an effing blast to play, and all the years since making the others just as fun.

Really depressing to see LOTRO icons disappearing...hope you land a great job, and come back and play with us!

Your creation of the Warden is what has kept me subbed. My main minstrel is fun but there is something about the Warden playstyle, the feeling that if I can just get faster or smarter with my rotation that I can become indestructable, that keeps me coming back for more.

Despite the warts you can definitely hang your hat on the class. There is nothing else like it out there.

Very sad to see such a creator of originality go. Good luck and whoever picks you up is a lucky employer.

Thanks for creating hands-down the most fun MMO class. All the best in the future!

Just one more voice to add in the chorus of thank you for the warden class and best wishes on your next adventure. The creativity exemplified in this class will undoubtedly take you to wonderful new heights.

So I hate to as (as some others have implied)
...was this your choice, or theirs?
