As many of you have found out, our friend CombatSoldier was banned from GameSpot. All week, bad crap has been happening to me; I got crappy news every day of the week so far. Combat was a true friend, well, as true a friend as someone could have without actually meeting them. He was the kind of guy who'd put in time to thank each and every person who commented on his blog, post, comment, etc. and would usually do it personally. He'd never have anything bad to say about anyone (who didn't really deserve it) and he brought all those people who left GS when Jeff left back with the two most popular (I didn't actually check this fact) unions on GS and connected GS to console gaming with gaming nights.

In short and to the point: I will miss CombatSoldier. He was a truely cool dude. GS made a huge error and in a slightly humorous way he got back at them by spamming GS staff and GS users he didn't particularly like. Combat, if you get to read this, you will never be forgotten and I will continue to stay as active as I can manage. I salute what you did for GS and for me. Thanks, brother.
