Nothing is permanent in the world of free online gaming. I've been here longer than most, and I've seen many people come and go. It's weird how the most active part of the community constantly changes. The core of the community we have now, is almost completely different than what it was over a year ago.
It's of course sad to see people go because you've get to known them and become friends even, but I wouldn't worry about that because someone new will soon take their place. And many who have left, have also come back, so not all hope is lost.
