[]R.I.P.[] www.universalgamer.net
« on: August 10, 2008, 05:47:32 AM »
Dunno if anyone ells cares about this post but I would like to be the first one to say R.I.P. www.universalgamer.net . The site was fun & we had some great times.

I know I might get shit for this post but I could care less now there is -1 gamming site out there on the net..

This is a quote from the main site


"Due to the time it consumes, personal risk to myself, and my desire to spend more time
working on things that matter, I have decided to no longer host universalgamer.net. I will
not be turning the site over to anyone else either, because I would not want to put them
at risk. Sorry for any inconvenience this causes you, and enjoy real life.

WOW, that's all I can say is wow.  I hate to say it, but I saw this coming and at the same time I am surprised. Kevlar couldn't handle it for one reason or another. Personally I believe Kevlar came on hard times and decided certain things were more important than others. depending on how you look at this, good or bad, he chose his real life as more important. Me I say good. I wish him best of luck in all future endeavors. over the last month I did see this coming though, all the problems with UG led up to it.    Ill type more when Im sober.

It was realy only certain people that were positive in leaving, I think Kevlar should come back.  along with a few other old regulars.
