Someone here has to know him.

If you do, please reach out to him on behalf of all of p99 and tell him to come feel the feels! In my humble opinion, a Boogie2988 exposé on project 1999 would not only be guaranteed to entertain, it would also be great publicity for the project.

Since he mentions EQ as one of his all time favorites and one of the games that really got him into MMOs, I'll bet he'd would be down to try it out and relive the classic game that really pioneered the modern MMO.

I will be totally upfront about one thing: I do fear that some members of the community might reach new levels of insensitivity in their attempts to troll or bait him simply due to his physical presence. Having said that, he seems to be pretty used to that sort of thing by now, so that kind of shit is probably truly just white-noise to him (i would hope, at least). That's my only real concern with this plan.

As someone who has actually played and raided with him in the past, I'm not supposed to mention that he's a piece of shit?

I played with that morbidly obese piece of shit on Prexus. What an asshole.

Nothing worse than someone whose only outlet to for "success" or popularity is on the internet in a video game.

Eh, perhaps he's grown since then. See what I did there?

I also remember playing with him on Prexus - I remember how he was very well-known simply for being a genuinely interesting and witty personality, as well as for being a very talented leader who knew the game dynamics extremely well.

And this was before he had the courage to post a photo of himself on his guild's message board - before unknown, unliked, non-contributing little shits like yourself had a field day attacking him for his obesity immediately thereafter. Despite this, he was more well-known than you have ever been in any community or social setting, online or otherwise, without showing anyone a single picture of himself.

But it wasn't EverQuest that brought him internet fame. It started with a character named Francis, which was a Cartmanesque caricature of himself behaving obnoxiously, which created for some really hilarious videos. He used the initial thrust of popularity and viewership that he obtained as Francis to start doing much more serious and compelling videos, some of which revolved around video games and some of which didn't. One of his most popular and engaging videos, Draw My Life, has more to do with his struggles in overcoming the challenges he's faced, such as obesity, than it has anything to do with video games.

It makes sense why you would still hold a grudge against him for over a decade, though. He's more intelligent than you'll ever be, more creative, more skilled and talented at everything, and sees more financial success from posting videos on YouTube than you'll ever see from working your shitty day job, assuming you're even employed at all.

Wow holy crap I can even finish watching that before needing to come and post about what a cool guy it turns out he is. Man and he even writes Ding over every computer he draws.. Which I'm going to hope is a reference to EQ ^_^

Love this guys jeeze I wish we could get him on here.
