| Sad news indeed.
A huge thank you from me for all that you, Hygrotus, have done and posted over
the years, you will certainly be missed regarding your contributions.
Hope to still see you on the forum.

| | Dear BrickLink members,
On Friday we heard from Hygrotus, currently our longest serving catalog admin,
that he was relinquishing his position. This is for sure a setback for our team,
as he was an unequalled expert in many areas and was exceptionally diligent and
careful in his work.
We will certainly miss him, and we wish him the best for the future. You can
read his BrickLink story here:

The CEP admin page is not updated yet with this new information. We hope to finish
that by the end of the week.
As part of the regular course of building the Community Expert catalog admin
program, we were planning to add another admin to the team this Spring (Apr/May).
That continues to be our plan.

Marek really brought a lot of value to BrickLink. I enjoyed working with him
and am going to miss that.

| Good luck to him. Hopefully it is happy news that some new opportunity has come
for him, or just spending more time on another or different aspect of the hobby.

A loss for the BL catalog, he made an incredible work.
Hope well for him now!

| Wow, these are really sad news.
Marek, I hope you are well and thank you very very much for everything you have
done for BrickLink and the catalog. It was mostly your (and Randy's) helpful
and positive attitude which convinced me to become a frequent contributer two
years ago.

A big loss indeed - you'll definitely be missed by me too.

certainly taught me a lot.
