I didn't know him well but his avatar freaked me out with that bright fuchsia coloured shirt and the chin that had stripes. ewwwww

All I'm seeing in this topic is unnecessary drama and people who don't appreciate all the work he did for GBAtemp..THAT's behaving like assholes.
Now, I don't know what kind of drama there was behind the scenes, but it's sad that it had to go this far

I kind of just wanted to remember funny moments from an over-all funny dude. He had his prick moments but don't we all?
I'm not picking sides or anything I kind of feel like this thread is contributing to negativity that doesn't really belong on the forums.

Yeah, what happened there?
That is.. beautiful..PizzaPasta said:GBAtemp is a great forum site but sometimes it can get a bit annoying. Especially when people are only using a site as a means to figure out what flash cart they should buy and riddle us all with questions that could easily be answered by clicking "search." It's hard for us users to have to sift through millions of threads about whether or not GBA "emulation" is possible only using a Slot-1 device or why Earthbound Zero won't work in NesDS.
This is where Urza comes in.
I've only been on the forums for a few months now but in that short time I've developed a love for Urza. It's almost as if you can hear his sigh of patient, impatience from across the internets. I'm not usually a fan of flaming but in Urza's case; I'm glad he's here keeping the n00bs in check.
I talk about him to people that don't even use the forums and sometimes, I bore my girlfriend at dinner with stories of how Urza totally gave it to someone that day.
I have a lot of favorites but this is my absolute, top favorite Urza flame ever:

It's post number 2.
Please post your favorites as well.
Is that seriously Urza? Kewl.JPH said:Sinkhead said:Urza is a cool guy. Rude, but pretty much always right. Not really the correct attitude for a staff member though...
Urza agrees

I never noticed him being overly offensive or behaving like an asshole...But then again I never paid any special attention to his posts...
And to be honest, I'd prefer any staff member to be harsh to new members instead of rolling out the red carpet for them, since 90% of them are only here to waste our time with questions they could easily answer themselves if they tried.
