"So much of what we do is ephemeral and quickly forgotten, even by ourselves, so it's gratifying to have something you have done linger in people's memories." John Williams
"I was visiting my cousins AGES ago while playing Halo Combat Evolved for a LAN party. This was my first time playing Halo. I was killed, over and over again. Our most played gametype was Fiesta Slayer on Boarding Action. Everyone called me Spawn because I was just dieing and re-spawning again. "31" happens to be my favorite number (besides 7) so I decided to put the two together and create a name for myself. "
"I also reinforced the name from reading the Spawn Comics by Todd McFarlane."'spawn031's current avatar.
Spawn joined Bungie.net on April 26th, 2005. Most of his early threads were in the game forums. In 2005, his most popular thread was "The Navbar looks like a soccerball!". During the Halo 2 era, Spawn was seen mostly in the main forums. Popular places were New Mombasa, Underground and Optimatch Forum.Spawn created different "offtopic polls". His oldest poll from back in 2005 is known as "What is your favorite vehicle?" from the Halo 2 forum. Which was created just shy of 10 days after joining.
Spawn achieved Mythic Member November of 2009. During that time he "fixed" a link and was banned for NSFW content from Yoozel for two weeks. After that incident, Spawn was warned thoroughout the next year. His friend Hylebos always classified him as "perma-membered" as his previous ban from Yoozel kept him from gaining his Bungie.net title for quite some time.
On January 2nd 2012, spawn031 re-gained his Mythic Title. He was prompted by Hylebos with this message:
On October 28 2010, Spawn created the group Robot Academy. This was a replacement group for a descending private group. Spawn worked with OMARRCHR to recreate this community. A member that went by Darthdizor, created a the original group named Robot Factory. This group was an expierement to see how many members it could accumulate within a certain time period. Bot accounts were created and spread throughout bungie.net. Spawn and OMARRCHR decided to house Robot Factory's community in a new group. Thus, Robot Academy was born. Darthdizor was permabanned by Achronos , and still lurks bungie.net today. He does occassionally poke into Robot Academy , but all of his accounts remain banned after posting. In late 2011, Spawn passed the torch of management of Robot Academy to another member Sepian1148 . The group is managed and run by Sepian as of 2013.
In April 2011, Spawn founded community group known as Bnet Regulars. This group is private, as many of it's members are known for contributions within the Bungie Community. The intent was to create a group solely for users that frequent the community forum regularly. Most members already know each other and it was simple to find contributors. Discussion is restricted with Bnet Regulars (Bungie.net Regulars). Bnet Regulars has been featured in public blog s by ARBITOR 5 in 2012. The Bnet Regulars roster also includes Forum Ninjas and Bungie Employees.
In 2012 a fan made website known as HaloUnity was created by the founders of HaloCharts (Firestream and TuffJuice ). Bungie was a represented faction within Unity and it needed an ambassador. Spawn stepped up to the plate, was approved and had the support of DeeJ and Halcylon .
Spawn chose other staff representatives to assist him in managing this project. The current team of Bungie Leaders has 7 members which are: Spawn, DeeJ , Halcylon , Duardo , Hylebos , Biwald (Halo biggest fan) and True Underdog. Involvements with this project includes organizing regular gamenights, posting new content and keeping an active community to correspond with other communities.
On August 22nd 2012, Spawn was promoted to a moderator of HaloUnity . The duties are more broadspread as you're not only working with members within the Bungie Community. It involves assist the webteam and carry out the policies and public rules created by the webteam.
On October 1st 2012, Spawn was promoted to Administrator of Community Management. This position is to work with any and all Community Leaders within each group about prospective issues about their community. Also includes approving new communities, overseeing the moderator with News, Events, and Awards.
On January 15, 2013, Spawn has chosen to resign his position as Community Administrator for Halo Unity due to personal reasons. He is now a Community Leader within the Bungie Faction for Halo Unity.
You can find Spawn browsing #Community, #Support #Destiny and his private groups. On Xbox Live, Spawn is quite active. In 2011, Spawn became a member of the Xbox Live Ambassador's program. Spawn is also a member of the NeoGAF, Magic the Gathering and Starcraft forums (with a recent touch of reddit).
