    GL Means. Thanks for all the hard works.

    It's sad to see the iconic name go, I suppose it has to happen at some point, and good luck to your future endeavours and your family, etc! Thanks for all the time and effort you have put into AO, we certainly appreciate it. See you on RK4!

    I dislike Multiboxes , Makros , Programmable Keyboards , Multiple Actions to 1Key-Binds << all of them simply do not fit my Idea of Gaming-Skills/Competition-Ethics .

    Dear Developers for Future scaling of Items & Nanorequiments please consider that :
    -there are Players below 220
    -there are Players without Towers
    -there are Players without full Org-Benefits
    -there are free Players

    This is weird :| we just talked ingame last night, and now you're all gone Gone!

    Will you play AO in your spare time, or does the thought make you throw up in your mouth?

    Will you send me secret cyb0r tells if you do?

    Wow... this is like, weird. You've been around for so long it's like you were always there. This takes some digestion.

    i hear ya, but thats what i mean, with all these new games coming out, a PR event wouldnt go a miss, and they make the game easier in some aspects but not in others

    for instance, a friend of mine is making a fixer, but he is put of by the fact that it costs around 5bil too make him a decent toon, yet you can only carry 1bil, they nerf ai bot droprates from city raids, and it seem like the only way to make a decent toon is too be rich ingame, but then they take out the only way most people have for making creds

    even still, i have a 220 fixer, he was my 1st 220 toon, and yet still i cannot afford to buy him full CSS in todays market and i have been playing since 2005, so now my fixer sits logged out because he is too gimp to do anything fun without css, yet ebayers and credit buyers have no problem buying there way into uberness!! its a total putoff

    and finding a team to do something is non existant, were not all as lucky as you are to do things once and get the loot we wanted lol

    all i see is the population dying day by day, and sitting on lft for 3-4 days doing absoluty nothing is not whata i call fun, not when i can just sit down and logout, and go play Battlefield 3 or anything else

    i love the idea of Anarchy but its just not what it used to be!!

    I haven't played AO for some time now, but I've been back every so often to check up on my first MMORPG love.
    I can say this thread warrants a post of thanks for all of your hard work and for being a driving force in reforming AO to being closer to what we the players have always wanted. I doubt you'll ever be forgotten in the community.

    So long, thanks for all the codez, and catch you on the next big thing. o7

    You never did name that new agent nano after me.

    I'm not mad, just disapointed.

    Thank you Means, for everything you have done to this game.
    You have done so much, and again i can't thank you enough!

    Thank you, Colin, for the chances and opportunities you've given me. I can never thank you enough - I'll try not to let you down

    Thank you, Means, for the years challenging and fun content you've provided to keep this old game alive. While falling into giant Dust Brigade-powered blenders or getting wiped by an irate Rookie Alien Hunter may have led to a fair amount of frustration, it was all a part of giving us players something new and exciting to sink our teeth into, and paved the way for future content to be born.

    Also, more importantly, thank you for giving the black box that is AO Development a face that the community can collectively love (or hate) and relate to.

    I wish you the best of luck with your future adventures. Don't be a stranger!

    Someone get this man some cake!

    You've done AO well for years, it's certainly not going to be the same without you.

    Here's to you, Means, and here's to the new torch-bearers.
