What happened to Vodstok
 

This is not a question, rather it is an answer.

So... this is weird but I am part of a lost media search that is utterly unrelated to what I am about to tell you. It just so happens that I also wrote for cracked.com and knew who Vodstok was. And I just happened to end up on this forum where he has also been posting, while on my lost media search. Seeing so many posts by him and seeing that many of his friends are still posting to this day it made me think that some of you probably wonder why he suddenly vanished (as did I and many others in 2017 when he just vanished all of a sudden from social media)

First of all. His real name is David Dietle (this is not a dox, he would write under his real name and still has his cracked writer profile linked in his signature on this forum)

Kathy is an editor at Cracked.com and in 2018 she broke this to all of us:

The reason he vanished from all social media, including this forum, is because he went to prison.

I knew him.
I considered us friends...we shared a lot of food/cooking stuff together.
I remember at a point he was going to put together a cookbook that I may have contributed to, I'm not sure if he ever went ahead. He kind of moved off to other forums, started writing more, and I think it's been going on a decade since we spoke. Probably more.

I know he had a cute wife and a beautiful little daughter...not that I'd wish it on ANY kid...but I kind of hope this wasn't about that little girl that we considered one of our own around these parts at the time.

Jesus...I had to do the research...

On January 2nd, 2007 he posted among other things, this
Lily will turn 2 at the end of the year. The first year is down, she walks now and is beginning to speak real words. Too exciting for words...

According to the news article...
The allegations against Dietle go back roughly a decade, and accuse him of engaging in sexual acts with a female relative on two occasions between Dec. 1, 2007 and Jan. 31, 2008, when the girl was two years old.

Man...the ages seem to line up...I'm hoping against hope it wasn't her...
We knew this kid here...Vod was part of the hdc family...
After all the shit he mentioned time and again about shitty family not treating each other right, I guess he became a product of the cycle.
Don't know what to say...what do you say when one of your friends, even former, turns into a monster...?

I'm so sorry, Lilly.

Holy hell. I'm speechless. Vod always seemed like a decent guy.

I seriously don't know what to say.

As you said, it's horrific no matter who the victim was...but this really stings. She must be 15 now. The past can't be undone, but I hope she's got all the support she needs right now.

Holy fuck. I remember him. Talked a bit and he’s kinda local to me. This is so beyond fucked up.

Wow......I’ve had many conversations with him back in the day. I even bought some merch he was selling from his web sight. That’s some sick twisted shit.

Damn... I really liked that guy.

I wonder if Urgeok was aware of these news when they came out since the two seemed to get along very well.

I will never understand the interest in underage girls. There was a story in the news a few days ago about some reality guy getting caught with that stuff. The guy has or had a show with him and like 10+ children.
