I remember heavily those days when Raadec was planning on leaving. It was a depressing period for all of us, we pretty much felt we were on a sinking ship. Raadec is entirely right, Vorknkx arrived at exactly the right time and saved the Wikia. Raadec is also right, I probably would have eventually left after getting the sinking ship feeling that Raadec had been getting. Yes, we have soap operas over here, not that I watch any of them. General Hospital is still pretty big.

Shaleblade took it over from the original creator? This message seems to say that the other three were involved before him, plus if you go into the users list and check out administrators it would explain the unfamiliar names between the original creator and Shaleblade. "I'm having trouble finding out if QuakeWiki has any active admins. When I look to see if there are any, it says there are 3 in the group, but it won't list any names. Help?" The response was "WIZ102, Wolf2Hexen, Epykoi. the most recent one was active 1y 263d ago.".

From what I have seen, Shaleblade had become pretty inactive by the time you showed up, doing a few edits but not being that involved. It seems his spark was mostly in November of the previous year, then he just kept it alive enough to pass the torch.
