People come and people go. Even the very best of companies (and I think highly of Sigil btw) lose people. Even the best of companies fire people (no, I am not talking about this case). Even the best of companies making the very best of anything, games included, lose talent. That's the nature of creative endeavors.
I was reading yesterday on Slashdot about Apple losing one of guys involved in the iPod . At some point you just have to expect that people do move around. I personally think that's a good thing. At SOE some of our most talented people have come from CS up through the ranks, replaced more senior designers who have left (in fact, guess what Lawrence Poe was one of them). Then those people eventually leave and are replaced and the cycle begins again.
Doesn't this happen to all of you where you work?

You guys are like professional athletes omg. Fans care when players on their team gets traded, and MMOG geeks such as the core readership of this site care when designers (especially important ones) that work on their game move on.
I don't think the stuff in this thread is personal. EQ Mages have
always hated themselves!
