Goodbye all! Wishing you best of health and good luck to every one of you! Going to miss the good times, especially the real good times back when Huggsy and The Sailing Rabbit and The Old One were around! ( ;) Blue )
Don't forget the Voodoo Magic Egg Barfing Theory, share the Predator 2 dosssier, and please convince 20th Century to add Crabators to the lore as a subspecies!
Love ya guys! All the best!
Bye!!!

Oh how this news makes me blue to hear it, sure that prior account's gone, the old one but I'm here!
In all seriousness take care friend, I wish you could have stuck around for Prey and Podcasts, wishing you the best.
Sorry to see you go, Voodoo. Thanks for your time and effort here and good luck with the future. :)
So are you just stepping down from working on the site or are you completely leaving the forums? If so, woah. Sad to see you go
I'm ready to admit that I am at least partialy to blame for this and ready to accept everyone's rage and hatred. No, I'm not gonna go in details
Sad to hear you leave us, Voodoo. We had some major disagreements and things got nasty several times. But I still think you're a very good person and a very dedicated fan. You contributed a lot to this site, I liked hearing you on podcast show or reading your articles. Your love for Predator 2, your critique of ADI - I might not liked all of it but your persistence and sticking to your opinions is something to admire and to respect. I am being 100 % sincere here, no jokes,no sarcasm and despite everything I've said to you in the past
I am sorry for all the hard feelings and pain I caused you, all the times I treated you unfairly. I wish you the best of luck in all of your future projects and hope one day to see you here again
Wow, what happened? Why is Voodoo leaving?

Too many crabators
So basically?

Bye, Voodoo, you will be missed :'( Maybe you can consider a 'stealth account' at some point in the future.
What's happening here? Was it something I said?
Nah, you're fine
Lots of forum mainstays step back for many reasons. Several since I joined, actually. Doesn't always have to be related to any one person or situation. I wish them all well and hope they return one day :)

Seems like a "skull"/"half-helmet" type issue. Except with Voodoo it's the "crabators" of course.
So unless you're a crabator apologist, then no, probably not.
So...did the crabators win?

I'm sorry to hear that brother ! Hope you are doing well and maybe see you here again in the future ! Wish you the best my man ;)
So who's going to take up the mantle and lead the fight in the war on crabatization?
Idk, are you up to the challenge ? What's your official statement on ADI ?
I'm not sure I should say. Will I have to leave if I give the wrong answer?

If he couldn't tolerate you standing up for yourself and not agreeing with him about things, or calling him out on his hypocrisy or often disingenuous argument tactics ... you weren't the problem.
I'm glad you feel that way, SiL. Still sad to see him go, he was a nice fella
Goodbye and good luck mate, and once again thanks for the flintlock pistol. :)

I feel like there's another issue as well, but I also don't think I should (publicly) speculate and run the risk of talking outta my ass.
DMs open come on in.
Come on folk, it's the guy's fair well thread. This is all quite unbecoming.

All the best VM!
Good luck Voodoo and hopefully someday you can return when this blows over. Love your voice on the podcasts and no one is a bigger advocate for proper Predator designs then you. Take care and get some rest and relaxation.
Wishing you all the best. And though I'm an ALIEN fan I often read your posts. And hope you return. 8)
Sad to see you go Voodoo, going to miss you around here. Also with Prey coming up soon it's going to be a real loss to the community not having you on the podcasts.
Feel free to return, don't think you can't come back if you change your mind, I hope that you do.
For anyone that doesn't think Voodoo is an exemplary part of this community I can attest to his character and kindness. We didn't always agree on topics here but while my mom was fighting cancer and dying, Voodoo would send me messages asking how I was doing and express sympathy and share some of his own personal struggles. He's the kind of person this place needs more of.

Wholeheartedly agree.
Damn, well this sucks. I'm really sorry to see you go Voodoo. :(
I know you've had disagreements with various people on here over the years, but it sucks to see you feel like things have gotten so bad on that front that you'd rather not hang around anymore. And yeah, especially in the run-up to a new Predator movie.
Like Buddy said, here's hoping this is just a break for the time being rather than forever. But if that is indeed the case then here's wishing you all the best, and be sure to keep preaching the gospel of Predator 2 to those heretical non-believers wherever you go!
Fans want/don't mind crabators, there is nothing you can do about that, sadly. :(
Voodoo, sorry I missed the party. To me, you've been one of the coolest people on the site. I really enjoyed your participation in the podcasts. I hope you come back some day. Cheers to you and thanks for the flintlock!
Saw this thread now, have missed it completely.
Sad to see vodoo leaving because he was great and knew the community well and also a diehard predator fan, he even gave me the flintlock gun in gif form for me liking predator 2 and claiming its a great and worthy sequel to the first predator.
No idea why he left but I have my guesses, hope he is enjoying life better without the forum and maybe one day return.
Im thinking about leaving too myself but we´ll see.
Here your flintlock back, you will need it better than me:

That's a shame. I really liked Voodoo, his insights and seemingly at times boundless optimism, and was interested in reading/hearing his thoughts about Prey. I hope life treats you well, magic bear man.
Is there a place where one can read his Prey review?
Quote from: Immortan Jonesy on Aug 16, 2022, 10:18:21 PMIs there a place where one can read his Prey review?
On twitter. He hated it.
How have i just seen this thread :'( :'( :'(
Sorry to see you go Voodoo. Know you probably wont read this, but gonna miss you on the forum. Look after yourself

I saw it, thanks. Besides, he prefers Raphael Adolini's cómic.
