Who Is Red Skeleton?

Could the 3 posts be on an I16 closed beta forum?

EDIT: The posts on the I14 closed beta section of the old Euro forum didn't show up on searches, but they did get added to post counts, I think - I seem to remember people asking about it at the time.

Therefore, based on available info I would assume Red Skeleton is a new Dev Red Name who has only posted in the Closed Beta portion of the forums and probably was given a red name because he either worked on a) Power Customization b) the new Difficulty system or c) the new Server Queue function.

My money is on B. Possibly A.

This is probably what it is. I guess we'll find out soon enough!

And yes, for the record, Red Skeleton != Red Skelton.

Anyone have any idea(s) who that is?
Someone with an administration title that got registered in June of 2008 [Edit: oops, typo.. 2007] (right about the time NCSoft is negotiating to buy the CoH IP from Cryptic).

So, no idea.

More than likely the 3 posts are in a mod/dev-only forum. Maybe someone from NCSoft.

That's it, it's Richard Garriott!

Come on People, Elvis is not dead. That's ridiculous!

I saw him last night at the 7-11 buying a cherry slurpee and a quarter pound Big Bite, nachos, and a Zagnut bar.

What is that was his home? That would make both statements true.


There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"

I know it was Red Buttons, not Red Skelton, but they were both old-timey comedians with "Red" in their name, so humor me.

I know for a fact that that is a lie. There are no 7-11's around here.

So if he were placed in the CoH Cannon, would that make him affiliated with the Carnival of Shadows, or some other not yet named circus-themed group.

Well, I know back in the old forums it was a bit of a trick to type the artist/dev N8 VanDyke you had to work the system.

Here, just don't put a space after "Van", though, it doesn't work to use the tag trick.

To me, it catches the feelings of the original (at least, the I think it is) opening.
