Default Did some more research

And found out that Tim is not the Founder, nor Co-Founder of Wowhead. Just another guy who worked under contract.

Here's a clip from the wowhead history page What is Wowhead? - Wowhead

Quote:
Wowhead was originally created as a talent calculator by Guillaume and Joshua in December of 2005. It started small, but quickly became a popular alternative to Blizzard's own, even eventually inspiring a redesign of Blizzard's calculator to the version that still exists on their website today.
Quote:
Wowhead soon joined IGN's Vault Network, as a hosted fansite. But in September of 2006, it became clear the Wowhead needed more room to grow. Tim (Evilseed) came on board to help the site to develop as a business, and Wowhead made the leap from IGN's servers to its own.
Just want to stop the exaggeration of the truth. Yes tim you helped build up wowhead from a business sense, but you have not been involved in the creation of wowhead.

Default Re: Did some more research

I'm going to lock this as it is off topic (not to mention incorrect) with a little link to help you freshen up on your research skills so next time you can say something that is correct versus incorrect:

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=wowhead+ceo+tim+sullivan

Yes, I was one of the 3 partners, yes I was the CEO, yes I was the one who sold it, yes I was the CTO of ZAM where I then briefly managed Thottbot, Allakhazam, and more, and drew up the plans for ZAM overall. Also if you researched even more, you would realize I've build guild hosting sites, software tools, and communities for gamers, ever since the first big MMO, Ultima Online, in the 90s.

Obviously I can't discuss the things like how much the website sold for, how much I made as a partner owner, etc.
