I’ve got voice confirmation from a friend of Dave Arneson’s, who spoke with Dave’s daughter today. Dave Arneson IS in hospice care. F**cking internet and its “unconfirmed, but we’ll assume it’s true” paradigm.
I’m looking at YOU, Escapist magazine.

“Not confirmed” means you do not put it in a bloody headline. “Assuming the reports are true” is NOT a basis for a news article.
And the comments at the end of the article?
Classy. Classy bunch.
F**cking internet.
