You couldn't have sent this in a PM to Lighthouse? Classy.

To be fair, I'm not entirely certain he has access to PMs anymore, or at the very least to his work email address.

Thanks for everything and good luck Lighthouse. You were a great CM.

If you ever feel you need for more abuse and name calling, you'll always been welcome back here. :-)

Hehehe - I don't know how anyone has the stamina to be a forum moderator, much less a Community Manager.

Ye did fine work, Lighthouse! Have a round on me, matey!

Personally I hope you have a wonderful life and a great new job. "or have found one already"

I can not say I am sorrry to see you go. I feel that the forums have been handled poorly by you for 2 years now and I look forward to hopfully someone taking control that can turn around all the hogwash you have allowed to go on for far to long. And I am sorry but I feel you leaving will be a step in the right direction to solving a lot of the problems the forums have.

Anyways nothing personal. I wish you all the luck in the world.

He doesn't have to put it in a PM. He has as much right to voice his opinion on the open forums as anybody else.


Best of luck LH. Hope to be playing a Lighthouse brand player made mission someday.

Despite my post count, I've been hanging around these forums for awhile. Before you, CuppaJo set a high standard for the work you followed her in doing; you then met, and in some ways, exceeded that high standard.

I'm very sorry to see you go; Godspeed.

EDIT: No 'E' in CuppaJo -- as the good Knight points out.

Cuppajo... no E... she was a lady if I remember right from oh so long ago...

EDIT: Yeah, I'm right... she was a lady. Well, IS still, but you get my point.

Take care, Lighthouse. It was fun hanging out with you at PAX 07. Hope you find luck wherever you go.

I say this because I was playing for a long, long time before I realized there were discussion boards. (I was introduced by a friend).

So if the light house looks cool enough, and its in a well traveled area (Talos, and maybe a ferry in Port Oaks), and its clear its a click-able object, it might instruct some new players to check out the boards.

I can think of a no more fitting homage to LIGHTHOUSE.

geeze another "I quit" rant..

who gets your stuff?

J/K good luck LH!

I would rather see a history badge both sides that has a few plaques talking about a neutral named "Lighthouse" who brought paragon city (or the world) through some dark time, and was a beacon to all those who needed a voice. Then in the history badge, it would bring up the forum. LH looked out for everyone, on both sides as far as ive seen (been reading the forums for about a year now, only got an account recently) He was the reasonable voice for the Devs, putting out fires for them as best he can, and a voice for us to them. He looked at how we felt, and was most likely the person that would show the devs the areas that need help. He kept the community from crashing on jagged rocks. Why not give a virtual representation in game.

Another cool idea would be a Pocket D task/strike Force where you start it with Lighthouse. total co-op. Anyway, The new person will have some hefty cement shoes to fill...

bye bye LH ill miss ya

So, I just get back from a short business trip, do some socializing Saturday, and check my email, to be told about this development.



Lighthouse, your leaving this position is warranted. Not because you don't deserve the position, mind you, but because as the messenger, I've often seen how you have sometimes become the ire of the community when news doesn't match what some community members want to hear. In that aspect, I didn't envy you.

However, as quick as some community members are to "kill the messenger", there are those who at least appreciate the communication, whether it be for good or "ill," and I am honestly one of those people. Although I may not have always been happy with the news, I have been happy that we have had a Community Rep that has always maintained an open line of comunitcation.

At the end of the day, you were a community rep for a video game. That has its perks, like making a living working in what is essentially entertainment, but can also have a lot of nerdrage drama involved. For those community members who forget that it's all just a game, and loose all their drama into the game and the forums, I have sympathy for them, as they should be using all of that energy for more constructive in those venues in life that matter most. You, however, do see that there's always something else beyond what's happening at present, besides the game, these forums, and your office duties and current projects.

Just like CuppaJo before you, we're going to miss seeing you on the forums and in RL at all the cons and events. However, it's what you do with your life and career that matters the most. Do what you need to do. But try not to be a stranger around Paragon City or the Isles.

So again, good luck to you Alex. Many of us will miss you, but many of us also wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. And I am among that group, Lighthouse.

See you around

Bye and Fare Well

I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.

Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.

So sad to be ending ):

Keep the faith Lighthouse... we'll miss ya! Lots!

Excellent idea combining an homage to a very nice, competent and helpful member of this game with a fun way to attract more people to the forums.

Though the physical structure may indeed tumble and fall, the spirit of the Lighthouse shall carry ever forth. Shine on, shine in all that you do, all that you are. Be the beacon which guides those around you to illumination, insight, clarity, and peace.

Where ever in the world there is darkness and doubt, let there be a Lighthouse, to show them the way....

Dont worry, friend, we'll keep the legacy alive in youre stead. Move on, find youre new home, and shine your light our way every once in a while. The watch is passed, the guard will change, but But all will be well, all things will be well, and all manner of things will be well, in the Light.

Goodbye, Lighthouse.

I always had the impression that you really cared about the game and the community, even when I disagreed with you.

You've earned my respect and my thanks.

I wish you much luck and happiness. If you have time to still play, look me up on Justice.

Awww, Lighthouse. I'm not on the forums much, but I'll be sad to see your name not among the red ones.

Loved meeting you at the Elephant and Castle back in 2007! You sat at the table I was at for at least an hour and talked to me and my friends, which I thought was awesome at the time (Still do!)

Good luck with the next phase of your life!

I remember when you first started here, Alex. We all treated you like crap because you took over for the departing CuppaJo. I still feel badly about that. You DA MAN! You so totally did your job well. I bet that is why you are moving on now. Because someone else knows talent when they see it. Good luck to you. I will miss you.

First off, to all the people that posted that this was a goodbye thread, and should not be on the forums…think about it community relations moving on might be a little more important on the posts than a good by thread by some whiny discontent pvper that cries on the forums but won’t leave the rest of us alone :-( Secondly, thank you Alex for the word you have done last two years. Nicely done and good luck
