'''Luke Drelick''' (currently known as djtiesto) has been a controversial figure throughout [[MegaZeux]] history. Since his days of [[troll|trolling]] on [[mWorld]] under various different pseudonyms (usually named after Garage artists, a trademark that made him easily identifiable), he was in fairly constant conflict with the community administration. This came to a head about a year after the creation of [[DigitalMZX]] (during which time he used the handle SEGA), when he was "permanently" banned from the forums in September 2001 for repeated infractions against the ToS and a general feeling by the administration that he was only around to cause problems for his own enjoyment. This led to complaints by many of his friends at the time, as well as some attempted ban-evasion and raids.
'''Luke Drelick''' (currently known as djtiesto) is a longtime member of the ZZT and MZX community. He is from Long Island, New York, and in addition to game development, enjoys listening to Dance music, DJing, clubbing and music festivals, movies, mountain biking, and reading. Ever since he was young, his dream was to develop video games. Receiving a copy of [[ZZT]] courtesy of [[Nash]], Luke finally got to realize his dream. One of his most well-known releases was [[Engine]], a [[Role-Playing Game]] for [[MegaZeux]]. [[Engine]] showcased a lot of concepts that would later become standard in lots of Luke's games: An offbeat sense of humor filled with lots of inside jokes, references to classic Japanese console games, a love affair with electronic music, basic action RPG gameplay, and tricky puzzle-solving.
 
In 2004, well after the furor had settled down, Drelick contacted the admins and dropped a hint that he wanted to be allowed back in, if it were considered acceptable.  After some discussion, the admins allowed him to register a new account on a provisional, probationary basis.  Since then, Drelick has been true to his word in demonstrating his willingness to cooperate with DMZX policies, and has actually become a respected member of the community once more.
