Regarding Will Christopher, aka Atrocities

[Deathstalker]

Oh, man....this is too much...my thoughts are with you and your family Will...You will be severly missed as you were one of the best posters (thoughtful and never insulting or rude).....hang in there, you will be back (I pray.....)

[Argh]

As a frequent lurker in this forum, I've been struck by how much Will really liked being here- he clearly understood the game and wanted to share his passion with others. Not only that, but he was nice At any rate, I can only hope that his illness is not as severe as you suspect- he will be missed by all.

I deeply hope that you are not done doing good, and wish you only the best.

It may be because I’m in Argentina, far away from the USA and far away from Near East, but this affects me much more than 10,000 dead people in the WTC.

A few days ago, when I made the race directory I realized that he had almost caught up with me in number of shipsets made, leaving John Beech far in third place.
He’s been working in something similar to what I’ve been. I was glad to finally found someone working on Star Trek shipsets as hard as I’ve been working in Star Wars.

I had modded his mods, adding some pictures and reordering others, and was about to email them to him. I guess there’s no need to do that now. Posting them on my site or on this forum now will look as disrespect, like if I wanted to take advantage of this tragedy, so I’ll wait some time.

He used to be a very valuable member of the SE4 community, and I was beginning to regard him as a friend. I wasn’t aware that he was ill. My best wishes go for you and your family.

Andres,

I do not know Will beyond the forum here, but from his comments I think he would want us to move forward.

Perhaps you could post them along with a nice note honoring all his many contributions to the community.

I've been absent from the forums for a little while, and I know that I don't post all that often, but I've watched much of the forums from lurking.

Will, (Atrocities) I hope that you will pull through.

Andres, I can understand what you mean. It's rather sad, but true. I think Stalin said it best. One death is a tragedy. A (ten?) thousand deaths is a statistic. It's easier to deal and cope with one thing close to you than to deal with something that is so far away and seemingly impersonal and inconcievable.

Damn, this has not been a good week. I will miss his thoughts and insights.

God bless you William.
