    Matt Pruitt - Leaving PlanetCoD, PlanetMoH, IGN Entertainment

    I am posting this news as I used to be in a clan for a while back in the MoH days with Mr. Pruitt. He was at that time the site director for PlanetMoH, and then later also became the site director for PlanetCoD. He writes:
    After nine years with IGN Entertainment and about five with Planet Call of Duty, my time has come to an end. I have had nothing short of a fantastic time and experience and thank all of you (visitors and fans) for making the website what it is today. I will not be leaving the picture all together, however. I have accepted a job in the game industry - you can follow me on twitter to learn more.

    His job is the community manager for EALA. Hopefully, being that he is from the community from the upbringing, he could be a community manager who could actually help the community. I wish you the best of luck my fellow past clan mate. It's not a job most can do well, but I hope you succeed as you have done with all of your past endeavors. :salute:

    Sad to see him leave IGN, but I think this will be much better for the industry, since he actually knows what we (the gamers) want. And EALA... hmmm used to be at PMOH... EALA develops Medal of Honor games, Blackhat left that position... do I see a pattern?

      I've met Matt several times, and he was a great guy to hang out with, whether we were jumping out of paratrooper simulation towers, drinking in LA, or watching the freakshow that is the streets of Hollywood. He's got strong opinions, but is still professional, and he really enjoys his gaming.

      I wish him nothing but success in his new job, hopefully helping to open some doors and improve the way communication is handled, wherever possible.

            So I guess that Planet Moh and Planet CoD will fall further into the morass of utter inconsequence. Planet CoD in particular is just a hell hole.
