    RIP Taj

    It is possible I missed the memo, and apologies if I did, but the legendary Taj has died. I received this message today:





    For those unaware, he was best known for tech antics like dat mining, creating addons, hacking the test server, crashing Besieged with shouts, releasing the user names of XI App botters, the famous FFXIclopedia thread, etc.

    I just wanted to take a moment to commemorate him.

    As wild as Taj was, he was legendary in his own right. I wish his family the best in this time.

    Oh man. That's unfortunate to hear. Guy really was a legend. Trying to remember some of his antics. Want to say he logged into S-E's test servers, and didn't he find a way to sell EX items in people's bazaars?

    Spam some Aphmau pics in his honor.

    Man. I remember when he played with me a bit in wow back in the day and he hacked into AV at like lv1 or 10 and fucked around in a match once. Was funny as fuck to see happen. Then years later I actually had a run in with him in Aion, of all places, and he mentioned about SE doing a cease on him etc. Dude was smart....

    RIP

    I remember him proving to a GM that chatting to him would crash the game/client
    I also remember him DCing a bunch of fish bots near a cliff in some zone

    Outside of Taj being the catalyst for the greatest community resource this game has ever seen. Was there anything else he helped with in the initial stages?

    RIP Taj. I wish I saved pictures, but it's not needed. The legend is forever
