Smith is a standout to a lot of people, reasonably so. Don't want to put pressure on him, but he really is just one of our nicest members, and is recognized as such by many

I still remember that time when mod discussions were happening regarding Gaming or possibly here (ninja edit, it was about Lethn, LOL, remember him?, wanting to mod here), and Smith supported someone that him while the majority didn't. The upvotes did not go in Smith's favour and one of the comments even remarked "The rare downvoted Smith1980 post.".
