It's mainly because Bish has retired as a mod. Usually he's the one that keeps an eye on the sales threads. Look at the bright side. Because he's over at GAF spewing nonsense, Chartz is spared from his insanity

Any reason why he stopped being a mod?

gribs, can we agree you jumped the gun a bit and my theory holds some weight? :p

My theory first. =)

When did you have this theory? I first expressed it over a year ago.

I think he's retired temporarily. He's working on a game and he hung up his mod powers to avoid conflict of interest.

Any evidence it's actually him? Because his posts don't come across as super salty over there..

I think it's him and he has become more cautious as to not fall under the banhammer. Did you think he stopped making alt accounts here just because he gave up?

When I had that sign in issue recently on this account and I had to create and alt to tell the mods it was honestly the most effort thing ever. It's was nearly like fuck it I'll just lurk the forums and never post again.

So how this guy goes through the bother of 1000 alt's I'll never know. Definitely one of the saddest people on the Internet. Pity for him his console of choice is on the losing side. Life would have been so much easier if he was a playstation fan and he'd be so much happier haha.

Seems Zelda is finally cooling off a little bit. Impressive run for being a month out, we'll probably see it dominate again as February ends and throughout March.
