He hated pump and dumps (before it was cool) and has been a huge advocate for growing slowly and running a community "the right way."

Skool is starting foster amazing friendships worth celebrating...especially on birthdays! A fun feature I'd love to see are birthday reminders (similar to the birthday notification that Facebook sends out every morning). Including birthdays on peoples' profiles would be awesome too.
