Sorry for being unclear, thunt (guy from goblins) just went silent for several months, then some minor posts and the entire thing (and goblinscomic isn't the smallest of webcomics) was just out of order for a long time, basically some sort of stress-ptsd.

Isn't it cause someone ran with the money or something?  I don't remember.  I only found out about it when people started making noises over it coming back in the lower forum.

I imagine there's multiple reasons, but the big one I heard is that he had a big melt down because people on the internet called him sexist.

He should remember that "Everything is sexist on the internet", to actually have the courage to put things out on the internet you have to let go of the fear that someone will see what you do as sexist because... well... they always will.

Heck I can think of a few people (well one person) who if you took everything they said seriously, you would have to conclude that everything is sexist.

Right now it is just the way you troll things is to call them sexist.

Eh? While I admit I haven't been keeping too close a track on Goblins in the last while, I recall him explaining that basically he had a series of breakdowns because he got too obsessed with the quality of his work and (ironically enough, considering the discussion in this thread) meeting update deadlines since he kept missing them and the excessive amount of stress he put on himself because of this - and other reasons that I can't recall, this is just the basic form of what I can remember - put him out of commission for a while.

Yeah, pretty much. He did have some kickstarter-related issues as well - he was attempting to produce a card game and the guy he basically hired to make the cards and such after he'd designed them ran off with the money, so he started to produce and hand-mail the packages to his backers. Not quite sure how that went, I've only started reading again recently.

As far as I know, he's still busy with it. I give him major kudos for that. A lot of other people would shrug, apologize profusely and get on with their lives. One of his major stresses was also fighting with Kickstarter to get a freaking list of backers from them so he could know who all needed to have a copy of the game sent to them.

Thunt posts new cards every couple updates, it seems like he's still working on it slowly but steadily.
