,no edit summary
Flux is one of the best-known and longest-time members of the online Diablo community. He began working on [[Diabloii.net]] back in 1998, and came to prominence along with that site, which grew to dominate the Diablo fansite community. This article covers Flux in terms of the Diablo community. See [[User:Flux|his user page]] in this wiki for a brief, autobiographical account of his webmastering experiences. Flux visited Blizzard North several times, visited Blizzard North 2 (AKA Flagship Studios) several times while they remained open, has been to Blizzard Irvine, attended E3 purely to see Diablo II from 1999-2003, and attended Blizzcon 2005, and 2008-2010 where he spent 99% of his time playing or writing about Diablo III. He is a true Diablo fan, with little interest in Blizzard's other titles, and the vast majority of his gaming time is spent on action RPGs.
==Diabloii.net's History==
The site that eventually evolved into Diabloii.net has been went online since in 1997, shortly after Diablo I's release. Flux began working on that site in 1998, even before the announcement of shortly after Diablo II. Flux worked on was announced, and continued to contribute much of the site daily from 1998's news and content until late-2003, when he began to cut back his online time after moving to Northern California to live with a new girlfriend. Flux returned to webmastering when he ran a Hellgate London fansite during 2006-2007, then returned before returning to active duty on Diablo II Diabloii.net and that site's new wiki, [[DiabloWiki.net]], in late 2007.
Besides the daily news coverage and regular features and columns, Diii.net hosts the most comprehensive Diablo image gallery online, as well as numerous discussion forums for all of the games in the series. In addition to posting most of the news and writing regular columns and features on Diii.net, Flux is one of the admins on this DiabloWiki, which puts him in the odd position of occasionally writing articles that reference himself, in the third person.
