    Hi everyone!

    I wanted to let you know that sadly I will soon be moving on from the position of Community Manager at Dovetail Games to pursue new adventures. I'm incredibly happy that I had a chance to work for such a fantastic company and serve the amazing community, and I'm grateful for everyone who made this time special for me.

    Since my role is becoming vacant, this might be your chance to join the team. If you think you have what it takes to be a CM, please find the job spec below:

    Very sad to see that you are moving on it was great to have you as the CM. Wish the best of luck in your new adventures, the streams just will not be the same without you.

    Hope you stay in touch in the forums.

    Anthony P. He pretty much does it already. ;) He could do it from Barcelona easily, as he's already demonstrated :) Giving him the formal role would grant him the legitimacy he needs and filter out the more speculative of his contributions. Get a CV in Anthony!

    I thought you worked for Amazon down there? You know what this forum is like for misinformation ;) Anyway it doesn't matter because youll soon be looking for a flat to rent in the sunny Southeast of the UK.. to start your new job as DTG CM :)

    Quit your bullshit. Stop bullying Anthony on here. I sincerely hope you get banned on this forum and start to re-think your immature actions. One may or may not like Anthony but insulting him and leaking his personal information shows how childish both of you are. And this doesnt even have anything to do with Dmitri's unfortunate departure from DTG.
    Same applies to you jeannot41.

    Bullying? I disagree. A bit of banter, no more. I'm sure Anthony can figure out im not being serious about him buying a camper van and moving to Crawley or wherever it is DTG operate from.. Its not like I even care. Its not directed at anthony personally. Anybody who posts numerous cryptic one liners implying a deeper insider knowledge is going to get teased a bit about it and their links to dtg..
    Here's an idea, why don't you not get quite so triggered over something that's really not that important :) If that's beyond you, go and cry at someone who actually gives a crap.

    Sorry to see you go Dmitri and good luck for you in the future.

    Shame your farewell thread was sullied by more bullying!

    I have seen the "banter" line used to defend bullying before, it is quite common. Maybe you should ask Anthony whether he finds it acceptable or not?

    As youre the one with the issue, i think ill leave that to you. I dont know how many times Im going to have to say that I really dont give a crap about you or anyone else's fake or exaggerated outrage. Not even a tiny little bit. Who gives a toss where Anthony lives, what he does, what he's going to do.. not me. I care even less what you and people like you think about me calling him out for his uninformative and effectively incomprehensible posts. Jog on kitty ;)

    Dang why do people in the TSW forums get into fights so often? I know the joke may have offended some, but fighting isn't the answer.

    I've only just heard that you're leaving which is a real shame. I particularly enjoyed your live stream yesterday and the way you answered questions. Very open and honest.

    On another note, off topic talk and constant bullying and remarks towards other across these forums is enough to send any community manager away. It doesn't make a nice atmosphere or experience at all. Please stop

    Quite right londonmidland and I'd like to say at this point that Im sorry if I have upset anyone. It wasn't my intention and my posts above don't really reflect my feelings. I was angry and cross at the time and honestly quite worried about my own long term job prospects which right now are hanging by the proverbial. No excuse I know, but illuminating background that helps shine a light on my own shortcomings by allowing that anger and worry to creep into my reactions on this forum. I genuinely didn't believe I was upsetting anyone and therein lies the threat. Some people can indeed be very much affected by what we say, and it would be the last thing on my mind to make someone genuinely feel bad, either about themselves or about their contributions here. Just because I might see something as harmless banter doesn't mean that for someone else it isnt causing deep harm. We don't know what makes each other tick, we don't know much about each other and so we don't know how much hurt we might inadvertently cause each other, sometimes very seriously.
    To Anthony directly, sorry if you found my posts caused you sadness. That was wrong of me and I should have expressed myself more clearly and thoughtfully. I hope you are ok with that.
    Anyways, good luck Dmitri. I think I posted that on another thread but why not use this sentence to get back on track (no pun intended).
    Stay safe everyone.

    I think a lot us here can contest to what you're feeling I know it is not easy to curb how you feel sometimes. Right now it is difficult situation in which all of us going through, and have no idea where it will take us. I myself being a essential service I am very stressed about my job, I have seen my revenue plunge. I worry about being out and not knowing if today is the day I could contract this virus.

    I think the best thing to do before making any post is to take one step back take a deep breath before writing our posts.

    Quite correct it is a worrying time all round and I think we are all on edge and text on the screen does not convey emotion or intention very well. So I am too sorry for any out of turn comments I have made.

    My old boss always told me when writing a letter of complaint "write the letter your want to write, tear it up then write the letter your should write".

    Well everyone, here's Dmitri's final DTG stream. I'm so sad I missed it because I was at work all day.
    Thank you for the streams Dmitri, we will miss you. :'(

    Blown away by all the kind wishes guys, thanks so much for being an absolutely amazing community to work with. Indeed, I highly doubt that I would ever find a better community despite some of its shortcomings. I felt very supported throughout the whole journey, and I've learned something new about the world - previously, I couldn't imagine that a Train Simulator could have such a large and dedicated and talented community. That definitely expanded my horizons further!

    Just make sure to be easy on the next CM :P

    Best wishes to you all.

    Dmitri

    Sad to see that Dmitri is gone. I haven't been active on the forums in much and Im disappointed I didn't get to wish him farewell. I only found out in one of Matts livestreams the other day when people were pestering him about it.
