He did, like, part of one issue(the 2nd issue) and then trashed the mag
for months on the DP forums. Real stand up guy. ;)

I just noticed it a while back. Never heard what the final straw was
that got him banned, but if you look at any of his given posts, they
were all just begging for it.

The worst thing, I found, about actually talking or just reading over
what the guy was posting most of the time, was that when I was younger
I used to love his reviews and his writing. Once I actually got a
chance to see what he is actually like, I can't bring myself to even
remotely look at anything the guy does.
