What makes you think Riot is only after CCPers? If they are on a new project, they'll be reaching out to any and everyone. Then after release they all get laid off again. Such is the way of the corporate game development industry.

Correction, we need a new person to blame the minutes being slow on.
But yes, never not shoot Dolan. At least now we can actually shoot Dolan since he will presumably return to playing EVE.
Afterall, how best to tell someone you love them than by blowing them up? Killing is just a means of communication, afterall.
We hurt the ones we love, and we do love you Dolan. Now, where are you? I need to test a new ship out... |

But we're not getting the minutes now, and if we do it will contain some kinda leak. It seems like riot is soaking up Devs that's in the public eye and not a native of Iceland. Hopefully Rise and Fozzie finish the balancing before they leave too! I hope everyone voted in the CSM elections! Thank you to those who actually supported my campaign! Even if I don't get elected in, I hope that the CSM that do, and Devs actually use my ideas somewhere! |

For those asking what CCP Dolan did hopefully he wont mind but I will quote Elise Randolph
"CCP Dolan was habitually underestimated because of his in-game persona, he was incredibly professional and extremely hard-working when it came to his role with the CSM"
For me personally anybody who helps the CSM to be as effective as they can is a loss to us all. |

to the "Why is Riot poaching ccper's" question. That's rather simple, once an ex co worker gets in the door at one company, others in that company use the ex co workers as a way out. Or the ex co worker hears of stuff at there new job and send a heads up to the old work buddies.
I don't think this is the writing on the wall at this time, CCP seems to be doing alright. But I guess we will see at the end of the year. Good luck Dolan |

So instead, I'll just give Dolan an o7 and leave it at that.
Edit: Why is Riot so aggressively poaching CCPers?
I believe the chief problem is living on a tiny rock near the arctic circle, where the water smells like farts and the pay is low for the industry.
There's no reason to suggest they aren't applying to Riot, who must surely offer a much higher QOL for employees. "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930 |

I don't think so CCP isn't that big I mean they make good money, But for a dev to make more or move up they are small and other companies have room for promotions. Anyone would leave a job if they can make more somewhere else. Its sad to see them go but if Devs feel they can't grow anymore with a company its time to move on. Blue

In case you didn't know, CCP Dolan has a lot of Eve-related tattoos on his back. "CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"

Seriously though, good luck to you.
Just be sure to tell Riot they cannot have our Fozzie. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

What makes you think Riot is only after CCPers? If they are on a new project, they'll be reaching out to any and everyone. Then after release they all get laid off again. Such is the way of the corporate game development industry. Mr Epeen  This comment made me read Wikipedia file of Riot Games and it seems that Mr Epeen was right. Riot Games is hiring aggressively everywhere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riot_Games

Well Riot has been trying to put a server everywhere they can. Just last year they made a Russian and a Latin American server. If I'm right Riot has servers set up in:
China, North Korea, EU west, EU East, Russia, Brazil, NA, Latin America, and Oceania.
Welcome to Lol Dolan, we welcome you with open arms. And Fix EU West while you are there :) |

I enjoy league as if I have a spare 30 mins or so then I fire up league and i'm in a game within minutes.
League to me is like being a kid again and popping into a arcade to kill a bit of time. Its good fun, plain and simple. |
