One of our cooler members from the early days of VGChartz can be found here:  http://www.youtube.com/user/madskillzdotcom

Feel free to check him out.  I'm sure he'd love to hear from you guys!

What exactly made him cool? I don't want to meet him only to discover that he's lame.

Yeah, is he cool? Should I actually visit him?

What is dis?

Yeah, I remember Mad Skillz. He was a 360 fan if I remember correctly.

I consider him a good friend, and talk to him often over Xbox Live. I will most certainly pass along this communities interest the next time I talk to him online. He left this community on somewhat of a sour note, and hasn't bothered to come back since, but I might get him to stop by if you guys are genuinely interested.

He was an older guy but he had a lot of knowledge in the world of video games. In fact, he reviews games. He was a really positive guy and, while he didn't post as much, he always added to the discussions. Plus, he used outdated slang. I loved that!

You know what would be cool? If you guys know of some great posters that no longer post, and you have a way of letting us know that they are doing okay outside of VGChartz, post a link in this thread. We don't necessarily have to talk to them or even get them to post. Just let us know that they're okay and not dead.

Thanks for the link!

In case anybody was wondering who madskillz is:

Haha.

Madskillz was a real cool member. Like you say, always positive and friendly, much like yourself.

I remember Madskillz and you described him perfectly, D21.

Unfortunately, I never really got to know the guy.
