Quake / Re: Quadz, the Loquaciously Multiloquent Member

Rock On

Holy shit man, I just got an email from Focalor about this. I had to read it a few times for my brain to even register the words.

It's been many years since I've been around Tastyspleen, but I've checked up a few times since then just to see how things were going. Quadz passing was never a thought that ever came to mind. The guy was almost deity-like to those that have been around since the beginning like I have. Back then when I was a young teen causing trouble, he carried himself with such empathy, grace, and integrity. We all owe him so much, he spent real effort, time, and money to keep this community going for all of us. He is irreplaceable and will surely be missed.

My sincerest condolences to his family. I understand the nature of his death is a personal matter, but was there any warning? I know he was relatively young, did he have any health issues?

0x1337c0de / $100,000 Whales - AKA the disgusting future of gaming

Informative

I was forwarded this article by this indie developer I know, since there isn't a general gaming forum here at TS I'll post it here where I have before.

Him and I have had long discussions in the past about the gaming industry and how terrible it is these days and both wishing it would hurry up and crash again.
Well, He was going over last years GDC stuff and found this scumbag here http://www.gdcvault.com/play/1016417/-100-000-Whales-An

Its a long video, but its pretty much this ex-gold farmer trying to sell how awesome exploiting players is. Going so far as to call anyone dumb enough to fall into it a "Whale".
