Native to Indianapolis, Indiana, he is 16-years-old and also a top safety for his high school's varsity football team.

History
After initially joining, addy immediately gained attention for a consistent trend of talking about basketball in the #football chat. He was a constant burden for mods of warnings and mutes, until he was hit with his first ban. He would remain banned for around two and a half weeks, before being given an unban on October 10. He was banned only hours later following a toxic argument with Shibe in the main football chat. Finally unbanned later on, addy would continue to contribute without issue until a controversial post that lead to a 1-month ban.

On the night of January 9th, 2018, amid conversation with users Max, CC2560, Wendar and jnck, addy suddenly posted a picture of an african child with a small sliver of NSFW showing on the pantsless kid. He testified that the picture was such a small sliver that he didn't even notice when picking it out from Google, and was backed up by Max, CC2560, and jnck. However, while debating a ban in #mod-chat, Wendar testified that he had posted a full picture that Wendar found personally on Google. It would go on with Wendar and Jace voting for a permanent ban, CC2560 voting for no ban. Aeari eventually voted for a one-month ban, which all four moderators at the time conformed to.

Amid member outrage for the ban, the #FreeAddy movement started, which saw most noticeable members of the server put the tag in their nickname's. A server was formed for the movement, which also contributed to impeaching Wendar, and reached 26 members at one point. However, the movement was to no avail, and addy served his ban and returned on February 11th, 2018 after missing the entire 2017-18 NFL Playoffs.

On March 7th, 2018, after creating the PUF Awards, addy was nominated for five awards: Reporter of the Year, Banned Member of the Year, Social Movement of the Year (#FreeAddy), Member of the Year, and Football Mind of the Year. On March 8th, 2018, #FreeAddy was named the Pickup Football Social Movement of the Year for 2017-18. Following that, on March 10th, 2018, addy was named the Pickup Football Reporter of the Year for 2017-18.
