What happened to Shade?

Haven't seen him in the new forums, I had some good laughs with his posts in the past, now only have Hendrik, Chai & Co. to keep the fun going... I remember him saying something about NWO, but I'd be surprised if he really switched... Shocked

Note to any Turbine staffers reading this, and one I genuinely hope you share around the office: DDO has become a shit game because y'all have made it a shit game. Once it was great. Now, it's a festering puddle of monkey diarrhea. No matter how you try to justify it, or pat yourselves on the back for doing great jobs... it's a shit game now because of you. Y'all keep on giving the players the middle finger, and you keep expecting us to reward you for the abuse. I've had it with you narcissistic fuckwads and your myopic policies of ineptitude.

NWO is a better fit for him.

I miss him though, the current forum trolls aren't nearly as batshit crazy or entertaining.

I like him in game.  He runs EE content and raids a lot.  Some people hate running with him, but I don't have a problem with him.

I find it hard to have respect for anyone who runs around shouting "HJEAL ME I DO MORE DPS THAN YOU."

It was a few years back before he really seemed to fall off the deep end on the forums, but I ended up in a few epics with him on a healer life I was wrapping up.

He was pretty cool with my complete lack of knowing the epic versions of the dungeons and made it a point to hand-hold me through the place.

Sure he was probably being decent because I was keeping him alive, but he went beyond what most other groups did to help me learn the place.

Felt kinda sad seeing him go bat-shit crazy around the time of MotU.

His forum persona was much easier to mock than his ingame persona. He was definitely finicky about people being ready/geared, but the times I ran with him he was clear and concise about what he wanted people to do.
  

Instant asshole. Just add alcohol.

In the runs I joined I did not experience this aspect of his personality.  I've seen the screenshots of the LFM's and all, but besides being a bit of a braggart sometimes about his build or gear over voice chat, I didn't find him to be objectionable.  (And that kind of stuff is easy to ignore and focus on the game)  I didn't always agree with some of his decisions as party leader, but they generally worked and he got completions.

He was fine, but his rambling monotone BS into voicechat was fucking annoying.   T

He was a competent group leader when sober, and a source of endless hilarity when drunk.

Fucking hell that guy had a drinking problem.

I never played with him; but even had I the chance when I was on Khyber, I woulda avoided him.  Narcissist doesn't even begin to cut his forum persona.

I ran with him a couple of times too...  I don't know if I just failed to catch him at the right point in the drinking cycle, but he never did much BS'ing that I heard.  I am disappoint.

Sadly we lost Shade to NWO and since Leslie got his ass handed over there he is back here...

I feel cheated. At least Shade posts made me laugh generally, Leslie posts on the other hand makes me want to puke usually.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

This seems quite likely.

Regarding trading, I would MUCH rather have Shade on the DDO forums than LeslieStalkerVeteranSuckup.

Fro what I gather LeslieWhateverFuckingThingToday got his ass handed in PvP too many times in NWO.

As a whiny bitch he couldn't cope with that and just came back to Tame, No PvP, DDO.
Now I could be wrong... as the NWO Forums are as bad as the DDO forums since the downgrade and I can't cope with more than one chimpanzee developed website a day I'm not following the NWO forums.

I would swap Leslie for Shade anyday.

Shade just needs to go to Alcoholics Anonymous for a while and he'd be a reasonable guy. Leslie's problems are much worse than alcoholism and probably much harder to cure.

No shit - at least Shade was a caricature.  LeslieFlaccid has all the charm of finding a used condom in the grocery store parking lot on Saturday.
