The decision to leave was not an easy one, and I would not leave the project for just any job, but this career opportunity is too good to let it slide.

I have learned a great deal in my years coding for PCSX2, and I want to thank the team for allowing me to work with them on this great project.
I hope the project continues to improve in my absence, and I look forward to the future PCSX2 v1.0 release.

So to the PCSX2 team, thanks and good luck!
And thank you to the users who appreciated my work.

Bah, he'll be back eventually...... When he gets fired........

OK, that sounds stupid but sometimes addiction does have withdrawal symptoms that sometimes cannot be resisted.......

Seriously good luck with your job, and having money is generally more important because it allows you to to further continue your add.... I mean hobby.
