I will be leaving TPU!

After all the drama in the comments section of our Fermi review, I realized that continuing with hardware reviews and this tech "scene" might not be what I want to do with my time in the future.

So I looked for options out of this mess, and found one, TPU will be operated by a different company in the near future, I will be leaving the site. But fear not, most of the staff will remain here, the site and forums will stay the same in the near future (months). However, I have no idea what's going to change in the long run but I'm sure it will be for the best.

Further info and a more detailed schedule will follow when I have a better idea what will happen with my software projects and other internals of the site.

It hurts losing one's guru... one's idol...

Heaven knows how much I, together with the majority here, wished that this had been just an awesomely good Aprill 1st... :(

It hurts to say an 'adieu'... we'd all have preferred a 'see ya'... but as you wish Boss, :toast:

As long as you're happy, wish you all the best of success. :rockout:

I'm still in a quandary. Not sure how to feel about anything just yet. I'll get it worked out.

carn't we arrange something? there must be something we can do, instead of pleading for him to stay something to show our appritiation for what he and everyone else involved in creating tpu has done for us. If it wasn't for them half the people here wouldnt be anywhere near as well educated and into tech as they are, i myself wouldnt have the ability to be able to build the rigs i own. I think this thread should be redirected towards showing our appritiation for wizzard and our best wishes to his future. Not pleading invain for him to stay.

We're not.
Unless the new ownership deiced it's a good idea to give someone else the handle "W1zzard".

Then the bullets go back and the bloodbath begins.

I guessed as much and included a reference for you.

Anyway I'm still bummed w1zzard is leaving, hopefully whoever takes over has as much to share with us as w1z and I hope this forum doesn't die because then I'd have to go to tomshardware or something and I hate that place.

Yes it's pimp. We have blue, red, pink ribbons, badges, etc. I'll wear this one for a bit to show appreciation.

Edit: Thanks for all of your contributions and hard work chief!
