He talked a lot about AD&D (because that's what a lot of people on Dragonsfoot cared about), but would bring up the "it's not my game anymore, ask WotC" whenever he wanted to avoid answering a question or weirdly just to avoid admitting he was wrong about something.
He made some three thousand posts on Dragonsfoot, and it's a strange look into the man. He talked a lot about royalties and legal matters (mostly about how everyone tried to screw him), and after being pressured for years by dozens of people to say what his favorite game was (likening it to picking a favorite child on numerous occassions) he eventually admitted that his favorite one to run, after all these years, was 3-pamphlet OD&D.
That's kind of sweet, and kind of sad, especially when you recall that the main reason he made AD&D was to try to avoid having to pay Arneson royalties. He really liked that original game he made with Dave, but the businessman in him pushed it aside so he could sell AD&D instead.
