Something Awful ended pretty awfully, at least for the founder.
It was making a lot of revenue and even got a (for the time) huge buyout offer. Lowtax being a mangosteen addict with a deeply troubled personal life who couldn't be bothered to take advantage of any of these opportunities/organise an effective was the main issue.
And for that moderator who was killed in the attack on Benghazi.
