I have known Riot for nearly six years, and I’m thankful to have met and created a friendship with him.
Despite things that have happened that would have turned someone less dedicated away from the community, Riot has a commitment and a drive that not many people do. He is always among the most open and friendly moderators (now admins) around, and his welcoming and understanding disposition creates a safe environment for KSI members to come confide issues and questions about the forums.
He has a deep understanding of the mechanisms that keep KSI running and has become a sort of peer leader in the community. His ability to undertake nearly any challenge presented to him — whether it be staring a division with Luci, running the mod staff, or reinventing AAP to be more open and rewarding — has never wavered. If he undertakes a challenge, he follows it through to completion.
His actions and demeanor are an example of what all KSI members should strive to be and the mark he’s left on the community is so immensely positive that it can never fully fade.
Riot fully deserves this award and I fully and completely agree with everything stated above. He has my complete support and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for him.
