Ahhh. SimonG. He introduced me to Arkania. Good man.
Lots of folks get upset about things, I've noticed. You get into politics and religion and people go crazy. There are vocal people, mean people, nice people. What amazes me is that so many people get upset and that so many people think of themselves as experts.
I mostly enjoy talking about my hobby here, but sometimes I'll dabble a little in politics and religion (especially since my viewpoint is usually so poorly argued).
Anyway, Ian was awesome. I hope he's doing well. He gifted me Tomb Raider when it was brand new. I think it was my first brand new game in years. My gaming budget is very low, usually, so I tend to stick with budget titles, not AAA new games. But his giftiness was truly a blessing for my gaming (not as much for my marriage -- I kid :D).
I think we should all have a virtual toast to those great community people who aren't with us now.
