I didn't knew that it was that much work to be a webmaster... its sad that you have to leave your position but I totally understand. I love MK but taking care of a big site like this one are a lot of responsabilities like I can see and you get my respect for doing it for so many years and entertain me for free.

I was there since the beginning under different names and by far this site was the best MK fan site I have found on the web... it was a bit strict sometimes but it was totally understandable.

Good luck! I hope we will play a MKA game one time

See ya. To be honest I think many people need to just leave this site and start focussing on reality. I know Scott put in a lot of hard work and all but... maybe a web-site isnt worth it. I hope bringing this place up hasnt stolen too much of your life Scott, cos as much as Mortal Kombat is loved around here, there IS more to life than a video game.
Besides any little reasons like community, news etc, what would be the repurcussions of this entire web site simply shutting down?

hey its me again lonely old Wrdlfe21 ahh i started awhile back around a little after mk5 was released and always spent my time here as much time as i do now on myspace. but i always thought this site was excellent and easy to navigate. You may not recoginze me but thats ok i always tried to come to the site often. I tooka hiatus and returned as Wrdlfe21version21. Anyways good luck in your future endeavors and hope to see you posting again! Your new amigo Anthony aka Wrdlfe21

MK5.ORG: The Voice of Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance - I just came across a print out I made with some codes for MK4 from this site around 2002. Since then I have stopped here many times for MK help and information. Thank You, and best of luck...

yay another person who has "moved beyond videogames" in life. as if videogames cant be apart of a "next chapter" in life. but to each their own.

Who is Scott Howell?

j/k

lol, good luck man, we're all sure you made the right decision.

Holy shit... I didn't expect to wake up to this.

Take care and good luck with everything, Scott. Thanks for MKO.

I'm really disappointed with the comments these ignorant people have made. They were just not needed.

Everytime I post, I swear it's for the last time, but keeping quiet in the light of this doesn't seem right. I'm sure nothing I say will surprise you, but I want to say it anyway.

For three years, this community was my online refuge, and thanks to you and the other staff, I had an opportunity to make my own personal contribution to mk5.org/Mortal Kombat Online. There were so many great moments, and I don't think those experiences would have had the same impact on me if I had not been working under kind, honest, and respectful people. It may sound cheesy or sentimental, but MKO is still a part of me after all this time.

I may not be here anymore, but I haven't forgotten all the joy and support I received from the staff. Thank you for trusting me. I know I've said that before, but I don't think I could ever explain how much that meant to me. It really was an honor working with you.

So best wishes, Scott. I'm confident that wherever you choose to go, God will guide you along the way. Take care,

- Temp

Scoot, I know this is a long time coming, and like when we originally talked about it, I'm always going to be here for you. We were practically in-laws and you've become a real brother to me. I love you and appreciate our friendship and if you need anything you know that I'm here.

Farewell, Scott!

You're da man for MKO..

ALL THE BEST!!!

Can all of the newer members PLEASE stop acting like they knew Scott properly? I've been on this site for several years, and I never talked to Scott properly ONCE. I'm not acting like I knew him.

'omgz scott u were my b3stest friend!1!'

However, on that note. I do wish you all the best in your future endeavours. :]

Guys remmber just because he does not run the site doesnt mean he is truly gone. He will always be a part of this community and hopefully will take time to say hey once in awhile.

Be well, friend. Thanks for the opportunity you gave me. I'm sorry I couldn't pull through.

Good luck with everything, thanks for making what MKO is today.

Thank you Scott Howell for all those working years with www.mk5.org to make it such an interesting website. It was and still the best website for Mortal Kombat latest news, updates, information and conversation.

I bet you'll be heading toward a more successful and creative job. What you've done here for all these years is an enough proof for a better future awaiting for you.

Good Luck
