'''Draco Icebane''', '''Draco Handsome''', or '''that asshole''' is a standard [[member]] of the MFGG forums who joined October 22, 2001. Since then, his outspoken nature and unconventional morals have caused him to add a taste of ... interest to forum debates.

'''Draco Icebane''', '''Draco-Handsome''', or '''that asshole''' was a standard [[member]] of the MFGG forums who joined on about October 22, 2001. He was indefinitely banned on August 2, 2008, an ultimate result of his extremely outspoken nature and controversial morals.
  
Draco is often blunt and crude, and cares very little for whether his wording offends those around him. Some claim he even goes out of his way to write offensively. Draco often refuses to back down in any argument regardless of the case against him, and may degrade the argument into insulting his opponent or emulating a Phoenix Wright case. This general mindset, one of great resolve or stubbornness, is met with varying degrees of approval or disapproval by his peers -- generally tending towards negative response from authorities.
+
The most immediate impression of Draco is that he is not one to back down from a clash of opinion regardless of the circumstances. Most of his arguments arise from his blunt, inelegant wording that expresses his own strong and often inappropriate opinion; the harshness of his disagreement often provokes others into thinking that he is attacking them.
  
Although arguably quite intelligent, Draco is not very well motivated and his patience leaves much to be desired. His [[fangame]] projects are rarely completed, although any progress he has made is at least modestly notable.
+
In his earlier years at MFGG, Draco maintained a controversial celebrity status, as some members respected his resolve ... but more recently, became less appreciated as the subjects of arguments became less acceptable and he was identified by the public as a [[furry]]. Recently, Draco's preference for characters no longer biases to or against furries as compared to humans.
  
Draco is the only [[member]] who has acquired a two page warn log without an indefinite ban.
+
Draco holds the record for the longest avoidance of an indefinite ban while issued a two-page warn log. Some of these warns are so old that the accounts for them no longer exist (see [[Kritter]] and his five or six accounts.)
  
+
Someday, Draco is going to change; and then he will try to return to MFGG, the first web forum he ever posted on. Until he can make up for the eight years he tattered the forums' image, away he will stay.

[[Ultimate Mario]] was announced as soon as Draco arrived, right there in his first topic or immediately after. He was much more polite in this larval stage, and was quite embarrassed when it was noted that his fangame was generating very loud sound effects for no reason. (It was repeatedly playing the Shine Get fanfare from Super Mario Sunshine over itself due to a coding error.)

[[Xgoff|Some members]] suspect that Draco has a sort of mental disorder preventing him from concentrating on a single task at a time. It is more that Draco is an idealist who does not often have the patience to sit and work on a long-term project (other than useless and often broken PHP scripts.)

=== Artistic ===
 
Draco's skill in graphical arts is limited almost strictly to [[spriting]] and [[vector]], which he is fairly competent at, but by no means legendary. Were his lack of motivation and patience to be skillfully defused, he would likely enter the [[competition]]s on the [[forums]] more often. As things stand now, he does not.
 
 
 
Draco is terrible at almost any form of physical / traditional art and generally dislikes the lot. The exception is standard drawing on paper, which he is nonetheless not very good at. (He's also a damn fine breakdancer.)

Draco joined shortly after the [[Great Kyle Flamewar]] on October 22, 2001 on the ezBoard, where he released a demo of ''[[Mario_Starshine|Ultimate Mario]]'', the "worst best Mario game ever". It held one test level and a myriad of horrendous programming errors, not the least of which was playing extremely loud noises for no conceivable reason.

Unfortunately, this respect for a good impression faded as familiarity bred contempt. (Draco has never been very tolerant of personality quirks.)
Due to his tendency to argue with anyone over anything, even if he actually agrees with them, Draco is often an unwelcome addition to existing controversial topics.
 
  
Draco is considered a furry by most of the [[forum]]s due to his affinity for characters who unfortunately happen to have somewhat more fur than usual, completely ignoring his acceptance of characters who don't have fur too (like lolis and stuff.) He also has a habit of drawing questionable anthropomorphic art, often suggestive nudity. Draco often explicitly mentions furries in vaguely related topics for the primary purpose of inciting minor disturbance in the Force.

Most of Draco's time was spent having arguments with several regulars, such as [[Quicky]] and [[Kritter]]. Constant arguments led to Draco receiving warns and bans at an alarming rate, which was only broken with [[King Piranha Plant]]'s specific attempts to receive as many bans as possible. Draco would later make fun of the KPP problem in many mock plays, which the administrative team did not entirely appreciate, with one of his comments about a standard member resulting in another ban.

Member History

Early Years

Draco joined shortly after the Great Kyle Flamewar on October 22, 2001 on the ezBoard, where he released a demo of Ultimate Mario, the "worst best Mario game ever". It held one test level and a myriad of horrendous programming errors, not the least of which was playing extremely loud noises for no conceivable reason. This project is in its fourth or fifth incarnation, and the name has not been decided upon. At this point, Draco was extremely polite and borderline naive, because he understood and respected the idea of The First Impression.

Unfortunately, this respect for a good impression faded as familiarity bred contempt. (Draco has never been very tolerant of personality quirks.)

Most of Draco's time was spent having arguments with several regulars, such as Quicky and Kritter. Constant arguments led to Draco receiving warns and bans at an alarming rate, which was only broken with King Piranha Plant's specific attempts to receive as many bans as possible. Draco would later make fun of the KPP problem in many mock plays, which the administrative team did not entirely appreciate, with one of his comments about a standard member resulting in another ban.

After the shuffling of the strike system and the resulting switch to only temporary bans, Draco was often only in posting condition for a week or two out of every month, which is a very depressing reflection.

Defiance of the Trasher

Trasher once banned Josh for fifteen days for accidentally replying to a topic simultaneously with Trasher's specific order not to, and Draco was informed by a frantic Josh through an instant messenger. He contacted FanGuy and asked him to take a look at the situation. The result at FanGuy's own best judgment was the lowering of Josh's ban to five or ten days, while Trasher was suspended for five days along with Delmore (he and Josh were why Trasher ordered the halt of the topic.) This sparked public outrage because everything a moderator does is taken as wrong.

Draco wrote a poem entitled "The Graven", a parody of "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe, to explain what had happened. Although it satirically villified Delmore and Trasher, it was generally well-accepted and recieved moderate praise (although it broke the rhythm.) Draco was never issued any warning, verbal or actual, for its inappropriate timing or theme.

After That

Various dramatic events led to further problems in Draco's relationship with the administrative team, including an argument with Yoshiman, who was actually trying to lessen one of his sentences. Draco had become incensed because Yoshiman was simultaneously scolding him for whatever the offense was.

Draco was indefinitely banned on August 2, 2008, when he performed a Super Freak-Out and stormed off of the boards.
