I started working with the Eden Community on January 5th, 2009 and as of 1:10pm on Friday, May 10th, my 4.5 years with EdenFantasys has come to an abrupt end. I have really enjoyed the time spent here getting to know all of you, and watching so many of you grow from being sex toy newbies into reviewers, experts, teachers, writers and friends. I've always felt very proud of the way that anyone could ask anything they needed here, and someone would take the time to help them, or at least let them know that someone cares. You should ALL be very proud of yourselves for the amazing community that we've created together.

I am very sorry if anyone was left hanging over the last few days. I can't really go into any details here (or this thread will likely get deleted), but I have no advice for any of you as to who or where you can turn with any of your questions, concerns, or problems (as myself, Carrie Ann, Emma, Jaimes, Sammi and Justin are all no longer here).

If any of you would like to contact me personally, for any reason, you are more than welcome. I can answer any of your questions in my private email account. GarySteinour@Gmail.com

It's been a good run, Gary. I'm proud to have worked with you the past 4 years, even prouder to have been able to call you a friend. I thank you for the knowledge you've passed on, the laughs we've shared and for being good enough to give up your office when I needed to sleep in it that time...

All you Edenites...

It's been amazing. I really can't add anything to what Gary has said other than a big, huge thank you of my own for all that you've given me and taught me over the years. Mad love to every one of you.

Gary, you've been amazing And you have too, CA!

I started with the Community on November 11, 2009, and it was a great 3 1/2 years. I enjoyed my time here immensely, I learned a lot and grew a lot, and it was fun and challenging watching the site and company grow as well.

I've enjoyed working with everyone over my time here, and in particular, I loved developing and working with the EdenTasks editing program and all the wonderful editors I was fortunate enough to have - I'll miss you!

I wish everyone the best, and for those of you who want to stay in touch, you can reach me at sammi@funwithsammi.com .

Wow, talk about a huge change! I want to throw out a personal thank you to each of you for all the hard work and effort you've put into this site. It's shocking to see you all leaving and you'll be sorely missed. This place won't be the same without you!!

Yeah, this is very abrupt and unsettling.

Thank you everyone for all your dedication! I haven't been here long, but it still won't be the same without you.

Holy Shit!!!!!! What in the hell!!?? Sorry to see you go--what a huge loss for EF and for the members, you were an amazing employee and worked your ass off here. I wish you luck and hope the door that opens is incredible!! I don't know how the site is going to function without you guys, you were the backbone of EF!!

OMG I am freaking out!! All of these people are no longer here!?!? What?!?! You guys are all amazing... where do we go from here? I am so lost without all of you, are we like on our own now?? I don't know if I want to be!!

OMG! I'm at a loss for words, seriously. This is devastating news, to say the least.

You guys are really what made Eden what it was. It definitely won't be the same without you.

Wow. And not a good wow. Most of us have dealt with you guys many times over the years and you've been a huge part of what made EF tick. You'll be missed

Gary you know how I feel about you, as I've said many times over. I see really awesome things up ahead for you and will continue to skype bomb you for no good damn reason other than just to say hi; Sammi that goes for you too. I love you both and will miss working with you and well...there are just not enough words to say thank you enough for everything you've taught me.

Wow! Eden seems to be making some NOT SO GREAT changes. I can't believe this....

To the community:

I know this is a huge change for you all and not to derail the thread, for now I will answer and/or take care of any issues. Many of you who have commented thus far have already received a message from me telling you what's going to happen in the interim.

Keep calm, things will level out soon enough.

I understand a lot of changes are being made here on EF but why in the hell does it mean we have to lose all of our awesome admins???? I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say, what the hell, I want answers.

That being said, I'm sticking around and nothing will likely change that but I do know that a lot folks are going to feel abandoned because of this. I was wondering why my email hadn't been answered about slideshows.

Who are we to turn to? I'm just at a loss, this is such shocking news...

You will all be sorely missed and we really appreciate all that you have done for us and the community at large. Sorry to you guys leave.

Thanks Stormy. Does that mean you're back on the staff now?

Yes and no. I'm merely helping out with the transition, it's not permanent by any means.

I'm with you on this one! I'd really like some answers. I like change and all, but this is just too much. I really hope that these changes will benefit Eden. I'm waiting for things to look up again. You all will be missed! *sad face*

I emailed two different admins only to find out that neither was here anymore. Leaving us with one person to answer all questions seems a bit unfair to poor Stormy!

Thank you for everything you've done for the community.

Does that mean Eden is shutting down?

It's obvious we are all a little (OKAY A LOT) shell shocked. Blindsided by the news. This is crazy news. We all feel lost and like MikeManz said, "I feel like I'm on a rudderless ship..."

So... is there a time frame that we are going to find out what is going on, Stormy? (since you are the only one left)

Can you give us a date or any hindsight?
