Da King

Da King, or King, is a member within the Miniclip online gaming community who served as a moderator on the Old Forums from March 2010 - February 2012 and a moderator on MCCP from December 2010 - February 2012.

Da King joined the Old Miniclip Forums in March 2010, one of the first of a steady flow of new members who had registered on the forums thanks to the newly introduced Sketch Star and Players Channel, which collectively were bringing an unprecedented increase in gamers to Miniclip. This was helping the forums to pick up again, which remained in a very inactive state following Club Penguin's departure a year before. Da King befriended a number of other new members who, over the coming months, would form the core of the new community. During the remainder of 2008 and throughout 2009, Da King was one of the most active members on the forum. In December 2009 he came up with the idea for "Player of the Week". A sub-forum was created for the competition, where Da King was given host powers to manage it himself.

In March 2010, Da King was promoted to the rank of moderator by Tetsumonchi, along with thedoc70, jim_b_hello and Rigs, as part of a major staff reshuffle. During a busy first year, Da King had to deal with StormierZiggy, was demoted the July Forum Breach and experienced the Tetsugate scandal. When Dracophile stepped into fill Tetsu's shoes after the latter left the forums, Da King was among the MCF moderators given matching positions on MCCP, in an attempt by Draco to bring the two communities closer. After Draco was demoted and quit the forums, Da King assisted in looking after the MCCP forums which were now in terminal decline as virtually its community quit in protest. On the Miniclip Forums, Da King's own activity began to decline and eventually culminated in him resigning from his moderator position and quitting the forums in February 2012.

Da King re-registered on the Unofficial Community Forums in October 2012 after noticing that the Old Forums had been taken down. In the years since, he has returned every few months to make a handful of posts. Da King has expressed frustration with Miniclip for their handling of the hack, and lack of care towards their community or their customers.
