Nah, I’ve seen a pic of him, and he totally looks like the type that would stay
up at night to fix that’s type of stuff lol

Brickset is his life’s work, and his income! If your income suddenly went down
in the middle of the night, y’all would do the same thing 😉

It looks like it is back up. I hope they were upgrading their servers. They have
been extremely slow. I also have about had it with all of their pop-up ads. There
are so many it interferes with the site.

If you create an account and log in you won't see any ads. They are only
shown to casual users.

Hum

I do have an account, but usually I just come to the site for a short visit.

And yes, the amount of adds is annoying.
I don't mind to see an add, I know someone has to pay for it, but sometimes
it is difficult to see the information that I am visiting the site for.

Yeah, he's real. I believe he's the one that held that contest for that
Chima DVD set I won maybe eight years ago (Chima started ten years ago and ended
eight years ago. Crazy, right?)

Aside from that, I had said some really dumb things to people on both BrickLink
and Brickset and I ended up banned from the Brickset forums. My behavior was
awful at the time so I can't say I blame them.
