Biography
- Join date: January 22, 2006
- Aliases: Falcon, Darklord, The_Darklord
- One of the "senior" members. (Senior meaning he has been on RMRK for at least a year.)
Falcon is most active within the RPG Maker section of the boards, and so he has become quite prominent there, though many users who have stopped using RPG Maker don't know him due to his whopping 20 post count in Spam. Over his time here, he has generously created many CMS's for people, as well as several tutorials which show off his expertise with RPG Maker.
Due to him being prominently active in the RPG Maker section, the more well-known members who no longer use RPG Maker had to become aware of Falcon in another way. There was a time when Falcon was fairly active in IRC (as The_Darklord), but later rarely visited and then just stopped all together.
He announced he was leaving for rmxp.org on April 10. His Leaving topic can be found here:Leaving RMRK
He came back April 26, 2007, as all the reasons he had for leaving were rendered invalid when they were either fixed, or the cause of the conflict was changed.
As of September 3rd, 2007, Falcon now has moderator powers over the script forums.
Personality
Falcon is often curt and impatient with new users. This somewhat demonizes him, and so his generosity in Tutorials and Scripts is often overlooked by new users who he has been curt with. He is very serious about RPG making and sometimes the relaxedness of this forum can annoy him, since there are very few members who are competent with RPG Maker. By other more accomplished users, such as Nouman and Blizzard, he is generally well respected for his abilities, and his somewhat short temper with new users is justified.
Community Involvement
Mostly, his involvement is limited to the RM section, but he has been a contributor to many of the major threads within that board. He is generally very helpful though some people are unable to see past his curt way of speaking to recognize that he is helping them. He is currently engaged in a major project with Nouman, Dark Angel Sion, jap0911, and modern algebra, as well as his own project, Mortuus Concordia

Forum Activity
Most of Falcon's posts are in Scripts, Tutorials, and RPG Maker 2000, 2003 & XP Discussion.
Drama
His curtness causes many members to dislike him, including Irgna, who actually went through the trouble of making a list of people who dislike Falcon in to the wiki. This was promptly removed by HaloOfTheSun, but the drama that arises around Falcon is frequent. The two biggest issues were: 1) In his first leaving thread, mentioned above, and 2) the drama that arose from the reposting of Blizzard's Scripts by Anonymous (The discussion topic). In it, he was the primary antagonist toward the posting of the scripts, to the extent of threatening to leave (again), and accusing the mods of abuse. This riled up the anger of Arrow-1, who told Falcon that "If [he] continue[d] with [his] senseless flaming, whether it is part of [his] personality or not, [his] posts will simply cease to exist." It is unlikely that he will not be involved in more drama in the future.
Projects/Achievements
Falcon is probably best known for his Request a CMS thread: As well, he began the RMRK Student Teacher Organization (taken over by Nouman when Falcon left). He was probably one of the most important members who still uses RPG Maker, but many members do not know him because he does not post often outside of the RM section. He is also working on his game Mortuus Concordia and is currently involved in an undisclosed project with Nouman, Dark Angel Sion, jap0911, and modern algebra.
He is also currently the Guild Leader for the BAG (Badass Awesomeness Guild) in the Guilds.
