Biography

Showed up looking for some sort of game soundtrack. Registered, and eventually settled down after posting nearly a thousand times within the space of a week or two. (Remember, this was back when the City Streets were active.) Lost the internet connection for a bit. Came back, posting up another storm prior to the First Crash. Also prior to the crash was elected a moderator by the community at large. After a few crashes, slowly backed off and integrated a bit more into the community as real life issues were limiting time on the Internet. Still browses and moderates to this day.

Personality

I'm not very good at describing myself. Just talk with me for more than a minute and you'll figure out what kind of guy I am. I suppose that means I'm approachable. If I missed anything feel free to throw it in here.

Community Involvement

Hosted various long-running contests. Elected moderator by the public in April, 2003. Promoted to super moderator at some point after that. Participated and lended support to such projects as ChocoCountry and GFF Survivor.

Forum Activity

Can usually be found on a daily basis in the Media Centre and Community Commons. Usually finds a way to post in the interesting threads of The Sewers and General Discussion. Doesn't browse through much else, and avoids gaming forums due to aggresive fanboys. Moderates infrequently, as there really isn't that much discipline that needs to be dished out.

Projects/Achievements

Hosted over 25 rounds of Do You Know Your Movies.

Contributor to Magic: The Gamingforce.

Elected GFF President in the GFF Presidential Election.

Best Use of Avatar/Signature Space 2004.

First publicly elected moderator.
