i've given you a hard time for being a newbie, but it's mostly been in jest. this is one instance, tho, where i definitely feel like you are too new to say. you've just been going off of hearsay, but your bias has made you focus on the people that talked poorly about his history here. there are also plenty of people that bring up good things he's done in the past. you've talked about giving games away here -- he's actually done it, lots. he's shown himself to be a very generous person he organized a series of Drunken Gaming Nights that people had a blast participating in. there's lots of other ways he's positively contributed to the forum.
