I will be leaving TPU!

[qubit]

Shit no, dont go!

I hope this is an early April Fools joke, W1zz. Youre the man here and you founded TPU. It would be a real loss to this site for you to leave.

If you set up shop somewhere else on the net, I hope youll let us know where.

Anyway, a big, hearty thanks from me for all youve done in giving us this great site!

BTW, the apostrophe has just stopped working on my keyboard lol.

[exodusprime1337]

wow wtf... this is sad if it's true... Leaders leaving is never good in any situation.. Someone else taking over the best tech site on the web is bound to destroy it. There is no other site like it... I has a very sad feeling today...

When he leaves im leaving. I mean its just not good. You have a creator this creator makes things because he has a passion for them. thats TPU it was work because it was something he loved.

now we are going to have some tool with deep pockets running this place with no rhyme or reason other than technology being a lucrative investment.

no thanks you cant buy me.

 

[Cheeseball]

LOL, send me some of the test cards you have before you leave.

First I thought it's an April fool's joke, but after I spoke with W1zzard myself, he confirmed it's for real. I would like to ask him to reconsider this decision, the community won't be the same without him.

This is the saddest day I have seen at TPU. This site would not be what it is without w1z.

Why do I get the feeling that if w1z leaves, next year at this time, this forum will be a total POS, with crappy biased reviews?

I also beg and urge you to reconsider w1z. Pawn the video card reviews off on somebody else. Hell, pawn most of the Admin tasks off as well, but don't leave altogether. We need you to keep a say on how this site is to be run.

I am seriously pretty gutted over this. I'm guessing this means no General Nonsense either?

I have a feeling that he will. He's put too much work into this place to simply wash his hands of it. I think he'll lurk a lot and still post. Just wont be his name on the site any more. GPU-z will still keep going, I mean GPUz and ASUS recently teamed up so it's known out there... can't see that just dying.

That would most likely be the first to go TBH.

Acknowledged.

Imagine if this place is run by someone like Charlie Dermijian (sp?)

THIS makes sense. This site inspired me to build my first rig. Its become my online home and family. As odd as that sounds.

Pawn off some more responsibility to others. Sit back and mod the mods. But don't leave man. Really.

I think that sentiment is shared by many of us . . . as much as we would like to think the site would remain as stellar as it is, I'm sure many of us also know we'd end up moving elsewhere at some point, too . . .

. . . but, personally, I couldn't think of anywhere else to head too - no other community has the same "feel" that TPU does. As well, it wouldn't be the same without the majority of our regulars, and the quirky bantering that comes with regular users communicating with each other over long periods of time.

<sigh>

But, it's true what they say . . . all good things must come to an end.

Sad - I didn't expect it from this community anytime soon.

Still stunned. Still hopeful W1zz will reconsider. The place needs to continue with him at the helm.

This + infinity.

I spend so much of my free internet time on here and you all are one of the best and most knowledgeable group of guys I've ever met, especially some of you who are saying you'll leave if W1z does. I view all of the site's reviews as some of the best and fairest around. It would be a tragedy for this site's reputation to be ruined by some slick-haired businessman looking to make a few bucks.

Pawning off certain tasks. This is actually known as delegating tasks to others so you have time to complete certain tasks yourself. I don't think it is wise to have 1 review such as video cards be done by 1 person, I say they should spread the reviews out, say 1 card 1 member then the next card next member etc.
