Most will remember his QCube antics - For months the Strokes loving member talked about his new console, and even performed dances for members on regular occasions. With his Panasonic Cube came a game which would prove to be the sourrce of much humour on the boards - Animal Crossing. WS took many pictures of his goings ons in the little virtual world, and to much acclaim as the photo's made his personal site go over it's bandwidth and gaves many people around the UK laughter.
One of his most controversial moments was when Richard changed his forum name from the legendary 'Whitestripes' to another band 'The Strokes'. Outrage ensued and protests were set up on the boards for him to change his name back - a testamony to how much he was loved on the forums. He soon gave in to peer pressure and changed his name back. He also had many variants on his 'proper' forum name like 'WS', 'Whitestripes, The' and 'Stripes'
His brave battling against Nintendo haters will be remembered by all who encountered any of his fights - never did I or anyone else see someone as completely devoted to his company, and I doubt we ever shall again.
Not just the Nintendo forum, but the whole of the message board is going to miss this great member, and only time will tell if we shall see a ressurection of this legendary man.
Idlewild
And the way he ran away when he couldn't think of a comeback.
How we will miss that.

I can't agree with that, now, can I? It's not a case of making something, it's a case of bagsing what is rightly yours, surely!

No change there.

why don't you just drop the 'bags' and say nothing? The 'sy' made it!

Ah, I see you may have fallen behind the times...the -sy was deemed unnecessary, and so it evolved into the 'bags' we know and love today
In Bradford it was 'Turn around, touch the ground, baggsy not in net'
When I was six
ie. Bags that such-and-such?
How the -age has spread.
That's true distance-age
