Brook, I am writing this because I heard the news that you are stepping down as a manager of the hive and I just felt like I needed to say thank you for everything. Honestly, it is so hard to imagine the studio without you helping lead the way. Four years is a long time, and you have put so much heart and soul into this place, and I think I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate it more than we can say. I remember when I first joined and you were the one who gave me the invite. I always looked up to you. You didn't just manage the studio. You were like the mascot of the hive. Thank you so much for the 4 years of hard work, dealing with all the drama and keeping the rules fair. Even when you made a mistake, you owned up to it and made it right. You really made The Gaehive a special place for me. You held the place together through so many updates and changes. I've learned so much about being kind and supportive from watching how you talk to people, even when they are being difficult or not following the rules. You're even so nice when you warn people of rule 6! Your patience is honestly just incredible. I don't know how you do it lol. I know you're not leaving quite yet, but I know I'd procrastinate this until the day you were leaving I know running a massive studio takes away a LOT of your free time, and I am so grateful you shared that time with us. It's okay to take a break and focus on yourself, but you will be missed so, so much. I hope you know that you have made a positive impact on so many people, helping us grow in so many ways. You are a legend in this community. Thank you for being such an awesome leader, a fantastic role model and just a really kind person to talk to. The Gaehive is lucky to have had you for four years, and I'm lucky I got to be part of it while you were in charge. Please take care of yourself, and I hope you still stick around to chat sometimes, because you are wonderful. Thanks again for everything! I wish you all the best in whatever you do next, you deserve it! I know you're not leaving quite yet but I knew I'd procrastinate this until the literal hour you left lol The art is for you, sorry if it's bad. I've literally never heard of legend of Zelda so I used a reference to draw Link! With so much thanks, Izar
