Gabe used to post here a lot and we have done a few nice deals so i hope he sees this...

I just wanted to say congrats on the huge profile in the current issue of FORBES magazine! WOW!~Great guy AND a great asset to our community.

Haven't seen anything posted by Gabe in a long time. He's probably too busy. Gabe is a class act and he did a lot for this forum during the last server crash.

I miss Gabe. I even sent him a 'Howdy' note a couple of weeks back. His forum visits would be welcome.

I'll look to that Forbes mag. Thanks for the tip!

As a steady customer and longtime fan of Valve, congrats, you guys are doing a great job!

 

[Gabe Newell]

Thanks everyone. However, every silver lining has some clouds, as evidenced by the fact that Valve's success has taken away from my quality knife time (insert smiley), and that it's 4:30 in the morning before I get around to reading the forums.

So if our next game sucks, it's actually just my way of clearing my plate a bit so I can spend more time here rather than hob-nobbing with the business press.

Either way, you're the man bud!
