Title: Howard has left the building?
Post by: headkaze on March 05, 2008, 06:29:17 am: http://dragonking.arcadecontrols.com/ :(

I feel like we've lost a great contributer to the arcade scene. I'm hoping he just needs a holiday or something.

I wish him good luck and hope he decides to return soon...

I am fairly new round these parts but based of what I have read you represented what this community is all about, sharing, contributing, helping and challenging people to move out of thier comfort zone.

There are times in life when you just have to say WTF.

Good Luck.
and Best Regards
GD

P.S. Can I have my posts soul back now?

All the best Howard.

Post by: hulkster on March 07, 2008, 04:33:21 pm: well i hope howard is okay and that his personal life is alright.

that being said....i can honestly that i despised the man on this board. really smart guy, but a turd on the forums. no ill will towards him personally, but man, he sucked on this forum.

but seriously though, theres like an empty void that needs to be filled now. maybe my leftover sandwich from lunch....there that did it. j/k!

Post by: Cakemeister on March 13, 2008, 02:16:37 pm: Howard, I miss Gygax, too, but this is ridiculous.

Finish the release already, or publish the source! There are no open-source VB frontends that I no of and certainly none as advanced as DK. Do you want all the work you did on the new release to go to waste? Release it, let it live!

Suck it up and Git R Done!
