RRRRRRRRRorie! (rolling R like he does)

Gonna miss you, Rorie.

R

Love you Rorie

o7 for the RDawg.

Love ya, Rorie. One of the greats.

R

I roar for Ramblin' Rorie. From the Boss of Bosses, to his fancy ties on Screened videos, to the Golden Duder, to that time he polymorphed into a dog, to Returnal master... it's been a long road, indeed.

Best of luck, Mr. Matt.

R

Damn hate to hear Rorie is leaving. Hope someone is going to get the store back up or if he got things in line to be relaunched before he leaves. Best of luck to him.

RORIE!

I love you.

Gonna miss you on this site, Rorie. Extra Life will never be the same without you, that’s for damn sure. But also, congrats on the new opportunity!

Man Giant Bomb losses another one. At least it wasn't forced this time. Best of luck to you in the future Rorie and thanks for all the book recs over the years. Also glad to see Jan is feeling better!

Gonna miss u Rorie, wish nothing but the best for your future.!

R

Will miss you Rorie, all the best and I hope this isnt the last I see of you!

R

Any time spent with Rorie on the site was always a treat. Best of luck!

R !!!

R R R R R Gonna miss Rorie. He always had a particular sense of humor I deeply enjoyed.

<3 you Rorie! You're such a gem. Those extra life streams are some of my favorite.

I hope you can finally talk about why you hate Ben so much.

Thanks for everything. Never change.

Rorie is the glue of this site in so many ways, and he's just as cool and decent a human being behind the scenes. Wishing you all the pups.

R! Best of luck in the future endeavors!

R(orie you're great mate)

R

Happy trails, Rorie. You will always be one of my favorite bombers. You like similar games I do, and I can't hate (and certainly should no one else) on a person who brings up Rilke's "Letters to a Young Poet" on a gaming podcast.

R

Gonna miss you Rorie!

R

Happy trails, duder. Thanks for all the hard work you’ve done.

Popping back in to say see ya, Rorie. I always appreciated you being the resident WoW player. I remember being caught off-guard when you casually mentioned on some random UPF that you grew up close to where I live.

R

Gonna miss you Rorie!

I will always remember when I was in San Francisco (and America) for the first time and I reached out to Rorie on Twitter, asking if we could meet up so I could buy him a beer or two as thanks for all the entertainment the site had given me. Never really expected a reply.

Later that day I got a very polite response, saying he’d love to but unfortunately he was otherwise engaged but if I was in town again another time to reach back out and to enjoy my time in SF. The fact he even responded shows his kind heart, but the real kicker was that the next day, the news about Ryan was published…

I cannot imagine how busy and emotionally drained he must have been at that time, yet he still found time to politely respond to a message from a stranger.

Going to miss you Rorie, all the best for the future.

R

I'll always remember Jeff G saying that without Rorie, GB would not have survived various parts its journey.

Let's hope GB continues to survive past this.

Good luck Rorie.

Abandon ship.

It's been a long road <>

R

Thanks for all the wonderful moments and memories during your time in Giant Bomb and wishing you all the best for your future endeavors.

Won't be the same without Rorie keeping everything moving.

@janman literally 15 minutes outside a day is enough to produce (yes, produce... in our skin cells) enough vitamin D to not be deficient. It doesn't have to be particularily sunny and you don't have to be naked.

Rrrrrrrr

Best of luck at your new gig, Rorie! you're irreplaceable and will be missed!

Much respect for a real one. Absolutely delighted that this leave is for a new opportunity. Onwards and upwards Rorie! You will be sorely missed.
