Aren't there moments when you miss William Schryver just a little bit?
OK, he could be sordid at times. But at least he did it on purpose.

Maksutov:
That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

I'm glad he hasn't been posting here since I've been around. Not someone I want to meet.

I miss apologists on this board who forced me to think, regardless of how I felt about them personally. For all his arrogance, bluster, predictions of upcoming earth shaking publications and condescension, he still was must read material.

His problem is that anything interesting or thought-provoking was obscured by the arrogance and bluster.

Then it seems to me that the people to miss would be David Bokovoy, LOaP, Ben McGuire, and Daniel Peterson. The loss of Will Schryver is like a lost episode of Deadwood that was cut because, though it had lots of fancy dialogue, it went absolutely nowhere and contributed absolutely nothing of value to the arc of the show.
