Default Can some one explain

Can someone explain to me why Hadrian took down SE Org? I honestly don't recall when this occured, or more importantly why.

So if someone would be so kind as to fill in the blanks I would be greatful.

I remember something 'bout hackers and frustration levels...

However, Fang Tsu is trying to heading up a group that wants to restart it. At least I received an email stating so....

I wouldn't mind knowing too. I know this guy Fang Tsu runs it now, but he hasn't done anything.

Hadrian took it down after his activities were discovered, and he grew tired of dealing with the consequences.

From his own words (hope he won't mind being quoted here) :

"I've retired from the community for good. I no longer have any of my old shipsets on my computer, as I've lost all taste for the game."

No more details, sorry, the mystery remains...

To bad. I can understand the burn out theory, but he shut his site down a lot and then re-opened it. I feel bad that he is no longer around, and wish him the best.

The site was a good place to pick up news and other interesting topics. He had put a lot of work into it and I think he was feeling a bit under appreciated. A shame really because we all know that we all appreciate each others work even if we do not say so. I guess in this case,we should have said something about how we appreciated, or at least I did, his site.

SE Org will be, is missed.
