I think everyone should be a little more sensitive to whatever happened with him. He's pretty obviously a cool guy, why all the negativity?

Even if something did happen, Andy is the kind of guy that would let us know. Even if it's something as serious as a death in the family or something. And not only that, but he was apparently on other sites, but not sims? Very strange IMO. But yeah, not hating on Andy, but just strange. Very, strange.

Andy is weird. I honestly think he's like 50 years old. Why the lack of pictures?? Deformed IMO. Everyone has a camera.

I think it would absolutely suck to decide you weren't into sims anymore, for whatever reason, and then have people talk shit about you.

Alot of people have lost interest, and almost all of them resign instead of disappearing. I don't know what his reasons are, and I honestly don't care if we find out or no because that's his life, but it's just a little weird.

When was I talking shit about him? I've always told him I think he's a 50 year old man. He told me last time he'd be gone, the last time he disappeared. And this time he left without a trace. All I was saying that it was strange. And it wasn't like Andy at all, damn... Calm down.

Im not excited so I see no reason to calm down, I just think its ghey for anyone to say negative shit about him.

You seemed a little excited, because you start accusing me of talking shit about Andy. Andy is one of my favorite GMs, and one of my favorite guys to be in sims with, so why would I have any reason to talk smack about him?

I actually made a statement, and it wasn't even accusatory towards anyone specific. And I dont see how it was viewed as caustic. If you ask me, Ducky, you're the weirdo.

Well, you were quoting my post, so I assumed you were talking to me. But whatever, I'm gonna go eat some burgers now...

Well I just don't like how he handled the whole situation...He has been on the net for the past few weeks.... www.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=830517&st=0&sk=t&sd=a Heres a thread on realgm with someone asking where hes at...The guy posted it today and andy replied right away...So basically hes been lurking on other boards but couldn't even come over to any of his leagues and let guys know what was going on. He also just left 1982 hanging which is bullshit.

And if something bad did happen, he didn't elude to it. Just said he needed to take a break. Its quite possible something bad did happen and he just doesn't want to talk about it.

I like Andy a lot, so all I'll say is that this is really odd. Leaving behind leagues that you're a member of isn't anything to be held accountable for. Sure, he's an active GM and has always seemed to have a lot of fun with BBS and other leagues, but if he up and leaves one day, it's his call. Leaving 1982 to collapse without anyone else having the file is another story. But real life always takes precedent. It would've been nice/normal to leave a post saying he's taking time off, but obviously Andy is making some change (his RealGM post alluded to this) so let him be. Hopefully in the future he'll be more communicative/considerate, but it's his life. It's a sim league. If he wants to up and leave, oh well. Seems like he had some sort of problem so as long as that's worked out and he's alright, no reason to hold a grudge.
