Is that why Cloki and 20+ other members who followed him left BDA?
They left to get closer to Jesus.

It stood for assassination and revolved around the opposing team trying to kill a player controlled "VIP".

Shortly before alpha release (1.0) they were picked up by Valve, and the rest is history. Great game =P but they had to go a long way before reaching the critical acclaim they have now - when the game was first starting, it struggled like every other little multiplayer mod out there [You must be logged in to view images.

And it was on Steam! (a change I couldn't stand at first but later agreed was a good decision.) And supported by Valve! Wow! After that it was all gravy, and Valve had multiple cash crops that were just pouring $$$ into their vast vault of cash with a diving board.
CS:GO is pretty awesome, and they've applied TF2 and Dota 2's cosmetic gun/knife skins which is a good cash crop for valve, however I still miss quickscoping in 1.3 more than anything. And the Deagle is a garbage ass weapon in GO.

Deru never went into hiding. This decision really isn't up to him, though.

I've done a great job avoiding people lately [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I find much success in the "do not disturb" Skype status.
