Kessler finishing internship this week - You sad his leaving?
I wish him the best of luck, but I'm not bothered that he's leaving. I don't hate HIM, I just don't think he was a natural fit. Being an editor on Giant Bomb is similar to being a co-host on a morning talk show. It isn't just about general knowledge about games and the ability to type articles, it's about personality and the chemistry with the other editors. I just never thought his persona complimented the other guys. No social link for him, I guess
I think intern is a pretty cool guy. He has haters and doesn't afraid of anything!
Yeah I liked Kessler
" @Elazul said:Children get jealous awful easy. Especially on the Internet." 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. "
Damn leaving already... I'll probably miss Kessler Kam the most. He should leave with a bang, leave something behind to be remembered or emotionally scar the entire Whiskey Media team. Whichever is fine with me.
I've always felt he received some unfair treatment from a certain sector of the user base but personally I'm indifferent about him leaving. The site certainly isn't going to suffer for it.
I will miss the fact that he was not included more i liked that he tried to keep things upbeat and he knew his stuff. The only other upbeat people now is vinny which is needed, been pretty moody on the bomb crew lately.
" 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 "
I guess I won't miss him much. He didn't really add much to the Giantbtomb crew, but I'd prefer it if they stuck with him to do the news instead of Brad N. Anyways, I wish him luck in becoming a successful games journalist.
7 pages of trite comments, and nobody seems to know enough about the guy to realise that he's a student going back to school for the year." I'm going to be honest and say that I won't miss him, however I wish him the best of luck to wherever he is going "
/shakes head
Internships don't need to end in hiring or firing.
http://www.giantbomb.com/users/mattbodega/My last day at Whiskey Media for 2010! Totally bummed that I'm heading back to school. Summer 2011 can't come soon enough!
What? They didn't hire him? Idiots, the guy's awesome.
Wait, so is Brad Nicholson gone now, too? 'Coz that would be great news for the quality of the writing on this site.

I'll actually miss him. I was getting used to his specific brand of quirkiness. Well, if his twitter/GB update is anything to go by, he'll be coming back around next summer. Well, I guess we'll see. See ya Kessler.

" Fuck no. I hope he never steps in their offices again. "Sounds like you're fucked for any possible internship then. "
