Re: I did not know that.
Well it's true, isn't it? Tass indeed hasn't been involved with FFR since 2009. It's only that he made an official announcement.

Re: I did not know that.
He has a blog where he explained in pretty great detail what happened in the year following the site's downtime. Its pretty informative, but it also pretty telling that Tass's only intent on the internet is to make money. (On Kong he develops some fairly good games and uses his profile rank to promote them and other sites.) Most everything he touches his hands to comes with the exploration of 'how can I turn this time-wasting activity into profit.' Not saying that he's greedy. Its just that although we all want money, we're all motivated in different ways to attain it. I'll say nothing bad about him. These are just my own observations.
But yes, he hasn't been affiliated with the site for almost if not already two years now. BTW, I was checking some ratings on site traffic. FFR still dominates the rear-end of thirdstyle. :P

But besides that, I'm not saying he's greedy! I don't think anyone who has had some interaction, beyond getting banned, could say that. I mean, just look at how much of his stuff has plugs for other places where he's a contributor to and thats fine! FFR lagged at one point seemingly because it struggled with its identity using a buisness-mindset. Thank goodness it literally caught fire it was allowed to restart using the ideas of fun and frivolity. Side note, I hate Kongregate anyways now that its owned by GameStop. Kong was already showing signs of sellout-ness by promoting terrible scam multiplayer games which sought to get you as buying as many Kreds on games labeled 'BETA' that would never update or be moderated. Now that main page is commonly filled with plugs, promotions and buisness-sponsered badges.

Re: I did not know that.
I talk to Tass on kong sometimes, he tried to convert me to ThirdStyledom, but it didn't work. They'll never take me alive.
And lol, Tass just makes the guides for Armor Games, don't think he develops anything himself.

You can see his business mindset begin here on FFR. On his profile, the only interest listed is "Anything to boost FFR's publicity" or something similar. If he actually was commercialist instead of just clever, you'd spot ad banners on the borders of FFR, would you not? At least we know we're in good hands, right? |

Re: I did not know that.
I always thought tass was a pretty decent guy, with a pretty funny sense of humor. And he's smart for taking the opportunity to make a profit from something where he literally has to do no hard labor at all, except chill behind a computer screen and make videos for games or whatever he did. Smart f*cker if you ask me and I've never actually been to thirdstyle except when it was just a forum when FFR was still down. I bet it doesn't compare to what Velo has done to the game though, that's for dam sure
