Dang
I knew he was ill, but not that ill... A shame, the board won't be quite the shame without his weirdness.
So long, you crazy, crazy loon!

Ah man.
I am genuinely fucking gutted. I really liked Valin. I honestly never once saw him say an unkind word about anyone. I was always pleased to see him on here.
I wish I'd had the sensitivity to realize exactly how sick he was. He was always so matter-of-fact about it though, he made it sound like it was no big deal.
Bye Valin, thanks for the laughs.

Always loved his gifs, and he seemed like a proper nice chap. RIP.

Terrible news
Loved Valin and his work. He was usually the only one to reply to my crap attempts at posting and we would have some mindless banter often about FUDGE! Really upset to discover this news and has quite shaken me as he came across as really nice bloke. I hope he knew how much he was loved by everyone here

Damn. I wondered if I'd ever meet him. I think he was another Northern Californian.
This thing we call life is but a thin and fragile thread.

The gun carriage never sold
He listed it at 14.99 and then at 9.99, no bids.
Drop them a line and make 'em an offer. I would, but I have already got 6 of them.

haha I was just thinking about that
Imagine placing the order and the poor warehouse monkey going into the dusty, uncharted, cobwebby bowels of the stockroom to retrieve a silver after eight gun carriage

Oh, how awful about Valin.
I've only just been in a position to be able to come back here with any semblance of regularity, and didn't even know he was ill :( He was always so very kind and made thoughtful replies even when more thought went into the reply than the original post. So sad.
