On the other hand, I really wish he hadn't made this "YAGE" thread. Not only does it draw more ridicule, I really don't agree with it. It seems an uncharacteristic move for him, and I think that it's completely sad to throw away several months of community just because of one bad experience in a thread.
EDIT: And Shim. If I recall, Sean posted a similar thread recently, and I would definitely consider him one from the "good ol' days."
