Esprix

Esprix is a long-time SDMB user, known primarily for the original "Ask the Gay Guy" threads.

A high-volume contributor starting in January 2000, Esprix was one of several representative LGBT users, and started the "Ask the Gay Guy" thread as a way to answer honest questions about his personal perspectives on homosexuality. The threads eventually spawned 3 continuations (during the time when thread length after a certain point was problematic).

In December 2003 he was banned for a week (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=226635) by Lynn Bodoni for breaking the newly-established "no joke threads in the Pit" rule, and although he returned after the  temporarysuspension, it proved to be the impetus for him to all but leave the boards entirely.

He still visits the boards a few times a year, and you can easily find him with a vanity search (as he signed all of his posts within the body of the post).
