SO ive heard kessler was leaving during the bombcast, i really liked that guy, he seemed full of knowledge and had som great understanding of jrpg's and stuff.
You sad his leaving?
i really do hope gb offers him a job, but i guess not
Kessler finishing internship this week - You sad his leaving?
He was okay, but I doubt I will really miss him. But I will miss his stupid choice of questions during TNT! They always made me laugh
I'm sad.
Matt was a cool guy.
Was fun with him on the TNT chat and articles/news he wrote were more fun and interesting to read then Brad.N's
" Not really. I don't actively hate him like a lot of people here seem to, but I can't honestly say I'll miss him either. "Why do some people hate him?
I must have missed something.
I'll miss Kessler Kam, it was a nice glimpse into some of the conversations that the WM crew have around the offices. I also think it's healthy for a group to have a scapegoat to be the butt of a lot of jokes, and Kessler filled that role nicely.
So yes, I think I will miss him.
Kessler Kam and Mr. Kessler will be missed by me. Best of luck Matt in your career wherever it may take you.
He seems be a really nice guy, and in writing, I enjoyed his articles.
However, every time he spoke he seemed a little overeager. Like "HI I'M MATT AND I AM NOW SAYING SOMETHING" I think that comes somewhat with being an intern, especially in an office of extremely seasoned vets.
Wish him all the best in the world though.
I'll miss him too, he's witty, intelligent and knowledgable (about JRPG's ;)).
It's a shame he never did a Bombcast.
I wish him the best, but I don't miss people I don't know. I hope he'll get the job he wants or whatever.
People hate change so I guess there going to be a shitload of posts about how he ruined everything and bla bla bla, but I liked him it was fun seeing a new face and I do think he contributed the website in a meaningful way and I hope to see him again soon.
I was under the impression that he was going to stay at Giant Bomb just as Drew did. Oh well, he was interesting and I'm not really that worried because his account is still here anyway so he's still around if you get what I'm saying.
I don't know, it mostly seems to be because of either his voice or how overly enthusiastic he is. To be honest I'm shocked that you haven't seen anyone bitching about him. There were a lot of people at it for a while there." @Elazul said:

He pretty much seems like part of the team, to me. It'll be different without him. I'm sure it's not the last we'll see of Kessler, though.
" Don't worry folks, Matt will be back in action carrying out his moderator duties soon enough and who knows what may happen next summer! :O "Wait, I thought we secretly revoked all of his privileges to the Mod Cave and gave his parking space to the cleaning lady?
Sad that HE'S leaving, you mean? Well, it's not like he's getting fired because he's incompetent or something, it was a summer internship and like all good things, it is coming to and end. So I'm not sad, but I wish him well in the future.
" @AlisterCat said:Only the most basic defence that a human being deserves, regardless of whether I know them or not. I don't particularly like his voice or any of his work as an intern but I have seen people saying very horrible things about him just because they find him to be annoying or whatever. It's uncalled for." Prepare for a whole load of horrible posts about someone they don't know. "So your defending someone you don't know? weird. "
" @Elazul said:I think it's his voice, which I find a little grating, but overall I liked the guy." Not really. I don't actively hate him like a lot of people here seem to, but I can't honestly say I'll miss him either. "Why do some people hate him? I must have missed something. "
Honestly he was a nice guy. He was over enthusiastic and it was a little annoying at time, but it makes sense given his situations. He may have been knowledgeable about JPRG's, but that is a topic I have zero interest in. However, that genre has a lack of attention on this site so it would be useful. I wish him luck and I'm sure we will see him next year :) Peace duder
Matt Kessler killed my mother, and raped my father. He is my twin brother, but also my sworn enemy. We can never be in the same room or else Hampshire will explode.
So it is written.
I'm sad he is leaving because now he is going to go back to sitting in the IRC like a chump and yelling about Path Of Neo like he always does.
