Asherons Call: Meanbeard Departs the AC Team

Brandon Paul Salinas aka "Meanbeard", who was the Lead Designer for the AC Live Team has parted ways with Turbine too. Meanbeard posted this on the Vault:

It looks like I'm joining the ranks of Ibn and srand. As of Thursday last week, I am no longer employed by Turbine.

Most of you probably don't know me. I didn't take part in the community nearly as much as Ibn and srand, but I did interact with a few of you, and I greatly enjoyed my time as lead designer on AC. It was a thrilling experience and I got to design some content of which I am very proud.

Please don't take all these departures as evidence that AC is shutting down. Turbine is committed to maintaining Asheron's Call, and I believe them. There are some incredible people on the AC team and I have the utmost confidence in their abilities.

Keep on keepin' on.
