I've got an idea! Why don't we all get black/camouflage gear, go to Steak's house, break in and watch him while he sleeps. Then we can steal his underwear, frame it and put it on display in the templ...err....'club-house'.

What you seem to forget is that Sadwich is not only a member of these forums, he is a very close personal friend of Setekh. I don't believe that showing your friendship categorizes as "worship"...

Now slow it down, by now you should have realized I've been on a locking mood lately. ;)

Meh - it wasn't something I went hunting for - I was just listening to music, and while this song was playing, it occurred to me that it fit quite well with the whole Steak Phenomenon ( :rolleyes: ), so I decided to share it. If I had composed the thing, I would have said that it's dedicated to him. But I didn't, so it's not.

And I really don't get all the n00bs who joined up after Setekh left (end of April, if you must know) and act as if they know him. Not saying it's bad that they know about him, of course, but.... ahhh, whatevers. :blah:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

"...every single one of them. And not just the members, but the moderators, and the admins too!" :p

Edit: The song...well, I've heard better, and I've certainly heard worse, to be quite honest. But the mood of the song is pretty good, IMHO. :yes:

Nice song, goes well with certain feelings.

I don't think anyone is really worshipping him, and if you see the cards as that then :wtf:

i guess he's gone for now so there wasn't really a reason in the birth day thread or whatever. but sometimes it just feels right...  oh well.

As for the n00b thing.. i heard of him from vBB back when i joind ed in Feb. I came here when vBB kicked the bucket, so i only "knew" him for 20 days or so, but his work was great, and he was a really cool guy. Sucked to see him go..

that bout' sums it up.

I think this entire situation is farcical at best. Now before I get flamed off my chair let me just say I admire Setekhs rendering more than anyone - being someone who's tried to capture the same level of engagement (to the viewer).

However, it seems that the "Steak Phenomenon" has spiralled into the rediculous. At first it was fun, I could sit and make the odd comment about "gee, his renders sure are good" or "so thats one of the old ones". Now, its just silly - with mass posting's talking about Setekh. I don't mean any disrespect to what you did Sandwich, its your right your his friend, but like I said many of the other threads or comments are just spurious. Now, we all agree - Steak was a great guy who was part of the group that made this forum, and he was a good artist, and a fs2 fan... etc. Can we also agree that if he saw half these threads he, like any human being, would get a bit freaked out? I don't know the man but I know how I'd feel.

Just try to make things a bit less melodramatic everyone, ok?
