I only just saw this post, and haven't visited the FF forum for ages, as there seems little point, at least until a new game update.

Pity now they have sufficient funding that they couldn't get Varsh back, but I suppose after still being in the process of moving house for the then new job as forum admin, and then shortly after finding himself being made redundant, he would understandably rather not have any more dealings with R8.....plus being the one tasked with sorting out the missing Steam keys, and other problems with people not being able to get updates if they had both a TTP and Kickstarter status would be a absolute nightmare.
I hope the new forum admin knows what they have got themselves into.....not a position I would envy.
