Since Hollenshead is "pursuing other interests", this most likely means that he was fired rather then him resigning, and id Software has truly gone down the crapper.
Real smooth, Bethesda. Real fucking smooth.

Todd Hollenshead Leaves id (presumably fired)
A short poem
I dig, you dig, we dig, he digs, she digs, they dig.
It's not a beautiful poem, but it sure is deep.

To prove your compressor works, I suggest you try it on your posts and then post only the result.
We all know an ideal lossy compressor would output 0 bytes for your posts, so see if you can beat that.

I wasn't counting on Doom 4 anyway.

I was never particularly impressed by Hollenshead at all, so this doesn't bother me.

Well, the very first three words of the article start with "id Software president", so I'm going to take a wild guess and assume he's the king of Pakistan.HexaDoken wrote: Who the hell is he anyway.
The Ranger - New class for HeXen.
ZDoom Wars - I drew some pictures.
Samsara - Some class-based mod I guess?
Metroid: Dreadnought - I am a dumb fanboy.
DemonSteele - ~come with me to anime world~

Id's been dead for years, anyway.
They haven't had a great game in about fifteen years!
And, something tells me they are going to hire someone from a company like EA to "Restructure" and "Modernize" the company...
If that'd happen, I'm sure the employees would have to put up with a lot more crap, and that wouldn't help with game-quality.

30 frames per second sure is a terrible goal while designing games...

damn, what a shame from Id Software to lose him for this reasons, hope he can pursue his dreams and interest and finish them in a good way
RE: Todd Hollenshead Leaves id (presumably fired)
"pursuing other interests" is a pretty rude way of saying someone was fired. I dont know the story but it would seem he quit
