Early Days
Irockman1 came to RMRK in seek of RPG Maker knowledge. He made a few resource requests, and asked some basic questions about RPG Maker XP. One day Irockman1 went into IRC and got into a large argument, immediately flooding the channel with "SHIT HEADS" repeatedly. Unfortunately, there were no ops active at the moment, and was only kicked. He kept coming back until an op returned and banned him. At that point Irockman1 was basically hated. When he posted, usually a member pointed out that he was the one that flooded IRC. His rep continued to fall so he decided to create a thread about it. In this thread GilgameshRO and others started to really get annoyed with him. Gilga started deleting all of Irockman's senseless posts, and it seemed he Irock was about to start bettering himself.
Leaving and Return
Irockman1 had announced he was leaving RMRK on April 17 2007, a bit of a controversial topic. Many members didn't really care if he left, and even some were glad that he would be gone. Although after creating this topic, he still continued to post elsewhere in the forums, thus becoming a liar by not leaving. There are still some members who believe he'll come back again, due to his lack of willpower. This, of course, happened a little more than a week later. He was surprisingly given a friendly welcome at first, but that soon changed. He then went on to say his attacks against Nightwolf, Silverline, and Holkeye weren't serious, and he didn't mean them. Obviously no one believed this. Het hen claimed he would only be posting in RPG Maker sections of the forums, and no where else. Later that day he posted in the Anonymous, lol forum, and was caught in the act. He then started changing what he said until he said he would be posting everywhere, and he is also now active once again in IRC. The fact that many members spend so much time in IRC is one of the reasons he left, further proving his hypocrisy.
Administrator Position
On December 18th 2007, Roph gave Irockman1 an administrator badge. Roph made the announcment in this topic. He had several moderator powers, but he had no administrative options, and no access to the mod hut. It was intended as a joke, but many were very suspicious of the situation.
Stencyl
Irockman1 has shown great interest in Stencyl, and has been given mod powers over the Stencyl forum. Some would agree that Irock is overly defensive when it comes to Stencyl, and many have questioned his interest in the project. He still frequently posts on Stencyl's forums and follows the development.
Irockman1 Jokes
Irockman1 is currently often made fun of. One of the most overused Irock insults involves the amount of space in between his top two front teeth. Most people can't come up with a reason to insult Irock. Irock believes they do it simply because everyone else does it. He even compared it to people watching American Idol. The insults may not bother Irock, but they must be dealt to him at every moment possible.
Current Activity
Today, Irockman1 is in IRC the majority of the time, and frequently posts on the forums. Irockman1 currently holds the most lines spoken in IRC, and holds a spot as one of the top 10 posters. He also has been kicked more than 500 times. HaloOfTheSun commented on Irock's total times kicked, "I think we're the only channel to abuse op powers so you probably do hold the record."
Personality
Irockman1 is generally a nice person, and only makes negative comments as a joke, when he's provoked, or when there's a dope. Irock nay insult morons, and people who repetitively annoy him. He's easily made fun of, which is half of the fun talking to him, though he doesn't seem to mind the jokes.
Community Involvement
He plans on donating to RMRK in the future.

Forum Activity
He has recently obtained 6,400 posts. The forums he is most active in are Spam, Video Games, and Community. He is also the second highest on online time, under Lominisio.
Drama
In the past, he's been accused of caring too much about his post count, as was shown when Silverline (playing a joke) set Irockman1's post count down substantially from what it really was.
In his topic announcing his leaving, he fueled the fire behind the other drama that had gone on previously that day, aimed at Holkeye. His topic was mainly aimed at how he wasn't happy that RMRK wasn't focussed solely on RPG Maker, and then went on to attack Holkeye, Silverline, and Nightwolf, who were all in his buddy list.
Irock has gotten in many arguments with RMRK members, mainly in IRC, though when the arguments start to show a sign of turning into a "yes it is" "no it isn't" fight, he begins to get sarcastic.
