Truth be told, I don't actually remember exactly when I met Si. I know it must have been sometime before last February, because I knew him well enough to give him a minor role in War on the Nether, and he knew me well enough to hire me to work at the Nugget Factory at the end of March, and that was when the "You're hired!" PM chat with Storm and ghostoftheglade came into being. By then, he also knew me well enough to have a private chat with me about Storm (this was on the day that we got into our argument, which in turn led to us become friends), and later trusted me with the job of being his second-in-command in the Chaos Legion. My earliest memory of him, however, was in December 2022, where he was "participant" in the PMC Soda Wars. (By "participant," I mean he barely participated but was present and active, like, once in the entire roleplay.)

Anyways, regardless of how or when I met him, we became good friends, and he was one of my best friends on the site. I tortured him with rugification twice (once in PMC Among Us, and again when he hit 300 subs), we worked together on the lore of the Chaos Legion, and he was the guy responsible for finding a (clever) way to put me back in it (see The Anarchist chapter 2). In August, I was his close friend and guard in the original PMC Kingdoms roleplay, before I found out that he had died somewhere in the thousands of comments on that thread. That same month, he PMed me about the whole secret shares drama to see if I was okay. Said PM was called "Hey IGE," and it later became our private chat, where we primarily talked about Transformers. Why? Well, one day, he made the smart decision to tell me liked Transformers: Prime, and I began to teach him about TF lore. Over the course of 7 months, I sent him roughly 45 lessons, with my final one being 43b, "The Autocracy Trilogy (Part 2): Monstrosity."

So, yeah, we were best buds. I had a great time chatting with him here, but sadly, all good things must come to an end. Si would occasionally make anti-LGBTQ posts and get short bans for them (not as often as Storm, though). Then, last December, he announced that he was going to be taking the month off from PMC. He came back in January, but he then went on another, more or less indefinite, break on March 28th. GalaxyCat24 would be the one to point it out, and I later did some further investigation and remembered that he had told me that he was losing interest in the site, which explained why he left. Somewhere earlier this month, he apparently made yet another anti-LGBTQ post, which led to his account being locked on the 8th. Now, I haven't seen the post itself, but I was informed of what it was and it seemed to be satirical. Nonetheless, he shouldn't have made it and he deserved the ban. Hilariously, he had been planning to delete his account anyways, only to log in that day and find that it had been the locked. Sadly, due to it being locked, that now means that virtually 1/2 to 75% of the group chat is now unavailable, due to Storm's account also being locked. Oh well...

I guess that's about it. I mainly just wanted to talk about my relationship with Si as a tribute to him. I was originally gonna do a Chaos Legion story (with the same name as this blog), but then I got bored of it and decided to just make an "obituary" blog like I did with Storm. But wait - there's more! Here's some messages that other people wrote about Si (the thread where they submitted them can be found here):
