At the time #TeenCabin was just forming blake was someone you’d see there daily, yet few know much about him.
Real-ity met blake through LaZeR‘s BBS. He was the first to get a “real tech job” and therefore had additional resources at his disposal compared to the rest of the cabiners.
With this, he gave Real-ity his first unix shell account on blake.gen.il.us where he ran his web site. On this shell is where #TheCabin ran their first privately owned, full-time bot. Blake also ran a bot of his own for #TheCabin called Scavengar for a duration of time.
Blake worked at the ISP, with ryanb that Real-ity used for his ISDN connection. He was often the one he called directly with any issues. Don’t think he liked that much.
