Hey Racers,
It’s with a sad heart that I have to tell you all that I am no longer going to be the community manager for Racing Rivals.
I’m not going to get into the details about whats going on within the Glu family. There are articles out there that kinda give you a hint, but that's neither here nor there.
Instead I just wanted to say that it has been a joy to work with this community. As infuriating and frustrating it has been at times, even when being called every name in the book, it’s been quite a journey.
By being your community manager I’ve experienced what the power of a games players can be. I’ve seen how passionate you all are, something I only thought happened with huge PC/Console titles. Never would I have imagined the amount of support, love and yeah sometimes hate that this little mobile game achieved these past couple of years, but it did and that has opened my eyes to the possibilities of mobile gaming, and what types of fans are out there.
I know I have been just as frustrating to you all. Like I’ve always said, I never did knowingly lie, I’ve been vague, yes, I may have not unveiled everything, but know that an employee is always bound by policy lest you want to lose employment. That’s the same with any company and any public facing persona. Just know that behind the scenes I fought for all of you constantly, even when I get “crapped on” I still had the players in mind. I did what I could. I won some and lost some, but all in all, we, that is Glu Long Beach did do what we could with the resources and time we had. I will miss fighting the good fight for the cause.
I’m not sure what the future holds for Rivals or myself, but it is what it is. I will always cherish my time with all of you, from the Nitto days to now. I've met some great folks, some uh, interesting folks... some of who I consider good friends now.
To all my Mods, its been great, thank you for all you've done and continue to do.
To all the Community leaders, thanks for helping grow the Rivals community.
To all the people who hate me, thanks for being passionate about our little game enough to feel so strongly
To all the cheaters and hackers.... diaf
To my Player Council, It's been fun, lots of laughs, thanks for always having me and the community in your hearts and for doing so much for the game
To all the forum members and players, continue to voice your thoughts, opinions and complaints, but remember to occasionally voice your praise, continue to feel attachments to the things you love and never feel ashamed for them.
Good luck Racers… kick the tires and light the fires.
One last time…

Anyway, good luck
That's the way life is, if you can't do the job correctly, you get fired. I'm in no means talking about the workers. The guy that made the decisions for racing rivals did this.
If the mail man never delivered the mail to your house do you just allow that?
Modified apk runs rampant. It could have been fixed but they give a song and dance about the core code.
It honestly doesn't matter at this point. The game was dying, now maybe it wont.
One of your mod TheGangsta scammed me yesterday and threatened to ban me if I come to forum.
I have screenshot. Tell me how to send and I will
