I have known @KSI Uppish 7 since the September 2019 and have had the pleasure of working with him in so many different areas of the community. I distinctly remember meeting him when I went to congratulate him on an OTM win and I found out he didn't win. A few weeks later I was working with him in HSI, then renamed History Department. Shortly after I worked with him in AAP, and once HD closed down in News. I thought that would be the end of Uppish's and my career together, but then we both joined LC, and I transferred CS after it was created. Uppish earned OS 2 and was even accepted for OS 3, but he declined OS 3 and said he didn't deserve it based on the criteria and wanted to earn it through Clan Ops, which shows he doesn't take the easy way, and wants to prove his worth. Uppish had a lot of problems in this community, but he has always overcome, and he has worked his way to becoming a voice in all areas he is involved with. He is never afraid to speak his mind especially when he is defending his friends. Another great quality about Uppish is that he is pro-member 100%. I have a few supporting factors in this. The first factor is that he literally sat a general for 14 months watching people get promoted to Co-Founder after a month or two over him due to favoritism. He decided to work hard and continue growing and being there for his members instead of focusing his energy into complaining. His squad Hellborn was one of the strongest squads alive at the time and its member retention was second to none under his leadership. He became senior AAP staff and helped train me in multiple facets of the area. He also trained me in HSI. He backed me at every turn of the way when I would present ideas to save History Department from going under, but unfortunately it did. He was then faced with a choice. He could either join the news team and help lead the department that collapsed, or he could bow out and do something else. He chose to help news. He then worked his way up to News Department Head where he did an amazing job. Ultimately, he ended up leaving News once he knew it was fine without him so that he could focus on leading clan ops since he had finally earned the co-founder spot that he was once denied. He helped create CS when Elysium SL (Doom) and Hellborn DM (Rebellion) were taken from their respective divisions and merged to form CS. He was an original co-founder that proved that he could handle the pressure. He worked his butt off and eventually helped the division grow from two squads to four. He has never shyed away from being there for everyone that needs help and he now runs the division as its division leader. He is there for every member that needs help and is always doing what he can to help anyone that comes to him needing something. He holds everyone accountable and does everything he can to make sure that things get done properly in all aspects of the community that he is involved with. He is also a prominent voice in the LC. He was one of the first people on the LC selected upon its creation, and he is always speaking his mind and voicing the concerns of the members in our community. Uppish is clearly deserving of OS3 for everything that he has done for KSI/contributed to the community. He earned it once and declined it, and now I feel like it is time that he finally earns/accepts it.
Here is the link for OS2. I didn't want to copy and paste my last nom obviously, but this was the topic that proved his worth as OS 3 as well. https://www.ksiforums.org/topic/52030-ksi-uppish-7-silver-outstanding-service/
