He's English and hilarious.

===Charas===
He first came to [[Charas-Project|Charas]] on November 14th, 2003.

===Comic===
The Adventures of Red was a 161 part comic made by Red. It starred his character Red and his team of hired goons in their attempt to make an evil organisation. For the most part the comics were just unrelated punchlines, but later on a serious plot was developed. By the end, Red lost interest in the comic and so a lot of plots were left unfinished. He would also regularly cameo various Charas members who asked.[http://star-scape.org.uk/extra/Comic.srsd]
Many people then continued to make their own version of the comic, theillusivefish and White Dwarf for example.

===Forum Gaming===
Red was one of the greatest Charas Pub goers, appearing quite regularly until it was unfortunately deleted. His appearances died down after the thread was remade by [[Razor]].

Red has made a few games in Forum Gaming, most notably the [http://charas-project.net/forum/showthread.php?threadid=12879&forumid=32&catid=6 Pest Control RP], which generated 42 pages before settling in the depths of FG.

===StarScape===
Orginaly Red Giant made a website for himself using www.ripway.com, then making one for [[White Dwarf]] soon after, mostly to practise HTML, maybe hoast a game or so. Soon after Red and White desided to have a joint site, and soon after Red's farther "Black Hole" helped Red to make the site, www.Star-Scape.org.uk. It was originally used to host games and game resourses made by White and Red and soon after updated the site to host his comics. On the 26 Aug 2004 they made a forum, notoriously stealing quite a few of Charas' members.

During the third reconstruction of the site Red used the internet less and less, leaving an unfinished main site.
Now run mainly by [[White Dwarf]], and maybe [[Drace]]. The forum is still alive, though in need of members, about 7 people go there daily.

===Moderator===
Red was made co-moderator of [[All of All]] along side [[Carmen]] at some point, but after a noticable period of absence, he was demoted on September 7th, 2005, and Carmen chose to moderate it alone.

===Bizarre Troll Connection===
On August 8th, 2005, [[Trevlac]] posted a thread regarding multiple IM conversations he had with who he thought was [[Trolls, tools and other rejects#Lord Raffles|Raffles]]. In one of these conversations, the person Trevlac was talking with claimed to be Lord Raffles, Red Giant and later on pop as well. This thread was soon locked, but with many questions left unanswered.[http://charas-project.net/forum/showthread.php?threadid=12831&forumid=12&catid=6]

Later on, in the same day [[White Dwarf]] made a new thread to defend Red, claiming Red was in another country at the time. He also explained a lot about [[Trolls, tools and other rejects#pop|pop]] and his connection to Red, as best he could.
{{Quote|name=White Dwarf|text=First. About Pop, pop2 and pop3

Pop: This one would be my falt. Josh C is a boy from my class, we often went to the library together, but one day I was round his house. I went on charas. He started to ask tons of questions about it and finaly made me (Yes. made. he actualy used blackmail.) to make a new account, I made someone called Toxic (And for that I'm very sorry) We logged on as Toxic and I told him his way round charas. Then I desided to go to the library, I logged off Toxic and told Josh to wait for Toxic to log on, and told him when he does, it means I'm at the library and then to go to the library to meet me there. So I left the house with Josh on charas, and knowing how to make an account. I'm a fool. When Josh met me at the library computers, he had already made Pop, back then I dident care so much, so went on with what I was doing online. Leaving josh with 2 charas accounts. Pop and Toxic.
When Red came down to my house one day, I met with Josh and we went to the libary, which is why Red me and Pop had the same IP adress once, this also happened a few more times, but I'm not sure how many. But now I have convinced Josh that he cant go back on charas. and so I'm sure this is the end of him.

Pop2: He was done by Josh's younger brother, Sam, Josh gets upset easly and so he always tells his brother about his day, Sam normaly helps Josh stay happy, which is why Sam, who is only 10, Made Pop2 to try and make Josh feel a bit better about being banned. It dident work.

Pop3: This was someone else, I know its not Josh or his brother. Because I was on the phone to Red once, and Pop3 added Red on Msn and started to talk to him, he told me so I got of the phone to Red, and phoned Josh, and Asked What Msn was, he said it was a virus and to ask him for help if i couldent sort it out myself, i hung up and re-phoned Red, knowing pop3 wasent Josh. (I also know as Josh doesent have Broadband so couldent have answered the phone if he was talking to Red on Msn.) But I dont know who it is. Sorry I cant help in this.

Ok, that's pop, pop2 and pop3.

Raffles. Is not Red or me, I dont know this one, I KNOW it's not Red as he wasent here for the last few days, he was in a different country, and away from a computer and as you know Raffles was IM'ing Davis the last few days.

About Red being me and me being Red, this is not true. Ok, Red made my account in the library with me sitting next to him, and on SS he made my profile as I dident have the internet at home and i had lost my library card. But i am not Red. When Red logs on right after me, or me after Red it's because we are family so we stay over each others houses alot. And so use each others computers.}}[http://charas-project.net/forum/showthread.php?threadid=12842&forumid=12&catid=6]

===Family on Charas===

Double account

A '''''double account''''' is a second account someone may have as well as their first account. In other forums, these is commonly referred to as "'''alts'''". Double accounts are generally not allowed on Charas, though there are a few exceptions.

==Reasons to have a double account==
*'''Forgetting the password to your original account.''' This is probably the most common reason.
*'''Alternatively, remembering the password to your original account.''' This is much less common.
*'''Wanting to start anew, without everybody knowing.''' This happens quite a bit, usually in n00bs who don't want to be tied down to their actions in their past.
*'''Wanting a change of name, or wanting to fix a typo/otherwise unwanted text.''' This usually happens with older members. You'd think they would do something about it earlier.
*'''Intending to spam, troll, or otherwise cause trouble.'''This happens more often than we would like, which is "'''not at all'''".
*'''Just wanting to fool people into believing there's another different individual on the forum.'''

==Consequences for being found out==
Under the circumstances that a double account has been used to spam, or perhaps interact with the first account (in what some would call '''comical spam'''), and the staff find this out, the second account will usually be banned. Most of the time, if both accounts have a lot of posts each, the person in question will be given a choice of which account to have banned. Least likely, the person will be let off with a warning, and both accounts in tact.

==More ''famous'' double accounts==
===pop3===
Created after the spammer of the same name (see: [[Trolls, tools and other rejects#pop|pop]]), generally with the intentions to worry people that there was going to be yet another round of spamming. In the end, the account was never used.
*pop3 was created by [[Apex]].

===wahba===
Created for a release, maybe, and was used to spam by submitting a new thread, and then hitting back and submit again constantly. This exploited a [[forum bug]], which resulted in over a hundred threads being made. wahba was banned, and [[Alex]] installed a new feature that limited members to one post per minute, in order to prevent that from ever happening again.
*wahba was created by [[Osmose]].

===HackersTotalMassLaser===
HTML is an amazing story, as he became an actual person in his own right. He was a regular for a while, until eventually he faded back into appearing only once in a while. Though many people enjoyed his general existence, years after his initial creation date, creator [[Kijuki]] let the world know that it was in fact ''him'' the entire time. In an unusual twist, even though Kijuki got banned after his turn, HTML to this day remains unbanned.
*HackersTotalMassLaser was created by [[Kijuki]].

===Alex's Evil Twin Brother===
This account was [[Alex|Alex's]] evil twin brother's account, complete with an INVERTED avatar and tagline "I am THE EVIL MASTER!!". He was pure, unadulterated evil.
*Alex's Evil Twin Brother was created by [[FFL2and3rocks]].

===Shinotebasiiackh/SleepAid===
The same person used both of these accounts actively in the past, but now only uses Shinotebasiiackh. Both accounts, however, remain unbanned.

===V===
Shortly after "V for Vendetta" (starring Hugo Weaving) came out in 2006, so too did this account. With his first topic called [http://charas-project.net/forum/showthread.php?threadid=16242&forumid=2&catid=2 Mein Kampf] (and the main body of text being the "you may call me V" speech), most people suspected it of being another [[Trolls, tools and other rejects|Raffles]] account. Shortly after, the real creator admitted that '''V''' was he.
*V was created by [[Trevlac]].
