I'd link the picture but even that picture is full of OFFENSIVE words..

However, his book is titled The First Villain: A Look Back at the GameFAQs Era, 2002-2005 so look at it yourself.

and he's selling this paperback for 10 smackers...and a kindle version is 2 bucks...

It's currently on Ebay and Amazon..and it's been on the market for TWO YEARS..

Here's is the bio on amazon

"Thus we have decided to give the first lifetime ban to none other than GGFan, whose crimes against the internet should not and will never be forgotten or forgiven." I created my first account on GameFAQs 15 years ago, "thegreatestgamefan." Back then I was merely the greatest fan of games. What I didn't know was how being a fan of one game in particular would give me the opportunity to master it while becoming its most hated character. Listen to my story, in which I talk about the early days of competitive Pokemon, my involvement in both GameFAQs' rise and downfall as a competitive community, and how I managed to become so despised that I even received legitimate death threats from indignant pre-teens (or possibly older, I'm not sure) who thought I was the Grimer of the Earth. Competitive Pokemon grew to new heights from 2002-2003. There were more online tournaments than ever before and a playerbase that had a clear sense of who the best were. I was among them, though nobody else wanted to admit it. Having been exposed to elitism early on in my tenure, I was able to create and perfect a character that would take the arrogance of my peers five steps further. Thus, GGFan was born, thanks in large part to my abilities as a player. We were younger back then. We were also crazier, stupider, and more violent than anyone could have imagined. To say that the competitive Pokemon scene was unstable would be a grave understatementno, it was an asylum run by the inmates. And I was the inmate that the other inmates wanted to be strapped to the chair and fry. But I was a tough nut. At the same I was committing heinous atrocities against Pokemons most beloved icons, I was winning tournament after tournament. I ended up winning more than anyone in the history of the GameFAQs era, and won more tournament matches than most of the playerbase combined. At one point I seemed unstoppable, especially when I managed to get moderators on my side. The beginning of my odyssey in the competitive Pokemon world began on GameFAQs, which was still, to this day, perhaps more fascinating than any other community Ive ever been involved with, and Ive been involved with many. GameFAQs was the wild west equivalent of the internet: I fired a lot of shots and took twice as many, but Im still standing. And now, Ill tell this story while I still can.

Would you buy this book?
