Congratulation Cyber! I was thinking some big company might come along and crush Oculus in the VR space. But based on the professionalism of the manufacturing/assembly and the recent hires, you guys seem to have a pretty big lead!

Cyber! Those are really great news! Congratulations!
Please uncover some details how was it to try last version of OR.
Cons&prons of course. :)
I believe you deserved for the job which will be your passion at the same time.
I'm lurking here quietly from many years (really). For long time I wasn't even registered because my english is so poor that I'm usually only reading. Writing is a real pain for me :)
Anyway, I feel like I know you for long time and it is so good choice to hire as a community manager so nice and helpful person as you. At the same time they chosen a person with thorough knowledge of on the VR matters and more software guy - so,there will be no gaps at Oculus now.
It is good move for all of us.
Oculus now has so nice team that it is a dream to work there.
Nice, nice, nice. My favorite company.
:)

Congratulations, Cyber!!!! :D You are a big part of what makes this forum great and you deserve it. I feel lucky enough just to be witness to the birth of something so historic. Even if this VR revolution is another false start (I doubt it) something truly special is happening here under Palmer and the growing Oculus team. All wonderfully intertwined with MTBS3D! So again, congratulations.

This is really awesome news, cyber! I think we're all as happy for you as you are for yourself! :D

I knew something was cooking when Palmer said "No comment" in the community question about Oculus paying you for the work on your 3D driver.. This place is truly the melting pot for VR. Oculus is definitely making all the right steps. It seems like with every passing day, I have less and less doubt that Oculus will be a success.

BTW, if Oculus ever needs someone around the office to make coffee let me know! :lol:

Yeah, no surprises here. Even in my lurking days I knew you and Brantlew would join Oculus eventually.

Anyway, congratulations, best of luck, and like Mary Jane would say:
