Vocelli Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 It is with much sadness and a heavy heart that I will NOT be able to Moderate the Atari HSC anymore. I caught my wife cheating and have been involved in a nasty divorce for 2 months. I am very sorry and wish everyone luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Nobody likes a cheater, especially when it involves official high score contests! On a serious note, very sorry to hear about your news and wish you all the best. Never an easy time, especially when kids are involved. And they usually are. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algus Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Sorry to hear of your personal issues Vocelli. I only participated on occasion but you brought a high level of professionalism to the 2600 HSC. You'll be tough to replace. Thanks for everything over the past couple of years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorfy Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I'm really sorry that you're going through all of that. Godspeed in getting it over with, and hopefully things will get less acrimonious as you go along. Thanks for all you've done for the AtariAge HSC!!! It was at its death-knell when you took it over, revitalized it, and made it the thriving club that it is today. As the Baz said, I hope you come back to participate at some point -- perhaps a good way to blow off some steam! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 What the others said. Thank you so much for all your work. When I joined AA roughly two years ago, I felt right at home - thanks to a huge degree to the HSC moderated by you. Hope to see you at least participating in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIO2 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Been there. It is tough when you are going through it but you need to see it as an opportunity. Looking back, I much prefer life and wife 2.0 to version 1. Good luck with your upgrade. Best wishes to you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airsoftmodels Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Vocelli, I am not sure if you will read this if you are no longer participating in the forum, but here goes. Don't give up on things that make you happy, especially during this rough patch in your life. Try to balance out the "Nasty Divorce" with positive interactions and activities. I am concerned that if you cut off your online friends you might sink into a depression. Personally, I have been very sick with Crohn's Disease for over a year. I have found places like AtariAge to take my mind of my problems and my pain. Regardless of what you decide, I hope to see you back when you are ready. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobZu7zu7 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Vocelli, Time to heal, relax, learn and slowly let go of doubts, blame, and inner pain and disapointment. It should get easier as days go by,... Your video pals are here if you need us, hope to see you back around Atari Age soon.

sn8k Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 It's stories like these which will keep me away from marriage. My 7800 never hurt me. I don't know you personally and I have yet to jump on one of these games as I just joined recently, but keep your head up, press forward, besides..... Girlfriends are more fun than wives and you can trade em in every so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
