Does this mean Oveur is coming back?

I played from 2005 - 2008, dumped Eve for a while (got married, etc.) and came back a few months ago and definitely tried to become a part of the community as actively as I was back in the days of Dark Shikari and Jenny Spitfire (or even Hippoking) or when Chribba was still mining Veld in a Skiff.

I slowly started to get accustomed to the new Community Leaders (Zym, Fallout) and while I wasn't Zym's biggest fan, he started to grow on me after a while. Fallout seemed like a rockin' chick.

Now... they're all gone. I really hope they have incredible futures ahead of them as a way of saying "Look CCP, this is what you're missing out on now..."

That being said, there's not much community involvement from the Devs that I can see. Back in the day, Devs like Valar and Hammerhead who were also recently separated from CCP were extremely active on the forums. Oveur seems to have completely disappeared as well, but yet appears to still be employed. Hellmar was even on the forums on occasion.

The forum mods were also pretty kickass as well, from Eris Discordia to Huitzilopochtli, from Jacques Archambault, from kieron to that 80 year old forum mod whose name I don't remember... now there are no mods, just the community managers... and now they're gone as well.

So now that we're down to, well... devs... what source of entertainment will we as a community have? Oveur was fun, especially in the pink wig. Hammerhead was hilarious (boobies) but we'll never hear from him again.

Who will keep us happy and completely out of line during the times when we need to be kept in line?

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

Aww. I miss a lot of these people \o/ I guess I can only leave this piece of work here (out of context, but still a testament to just how awesome he was.)

Community Leaders (Zym, Fallout)

Not sure how or why you're using the term 'leader'. Can you give some examples of this 'leadership'? Especially during last summer's crisis.
