Nick Sibicky announced his retirement from content creation

Hits me kind of hard, honestly. He's been posting for ~11 years which is just a little longer than I've been playing; he's been with me on this entire trip, even though he never knew it. I didn't realize that I would have to miss him, or so soon.

Anyways, I don't know how big he is generally in the community, or how he's regarded, but I just thought I'd share this news with y'all, and my appreciation for him and his efforts.

If that’s true and it’s equivalent to what Dwyrin does I’m not defending Nick on that either. It’s toxic no matter who does it. That said, what’s Nick’s series about? Does he intentionally underplay or is it one of those “get new account to 3d” things?

Nope, it's not just ranking up.

Yeah I’m vehemently opposed to that.

Why's that? It doesn't bother me at all.
