#4The Xbox-Live approach does not strike me as the prudent course of action for trying to recruit others for your cause. Even when actually on Xbox Live.
I've questioned how some recruiters that I've dealt with had jobs, but never had one remotely reached this kind of level of fire-him-now-ness.

#5Sketchy in a lot of ways.
His LinkedIn profile has stars around the name http://www.linkedin.com/in/opensourcestaffing
He also has every state in the nation listed twice (postal code + full state name). SEO bait I guess.
It seems surprising to me that some of the fairly big companies listed on their website (eBay, Disney Internet Group, Rapleaf, Shopzilla) would engage with someone so visibly awful. http://open-source-staffing.com/clients.html

#9Beau has been around a long time. I remember him posting jobs to the jobs.perl.org site and perl jobs list years ago (back in 2001). We had to ban him for similarly bad behavior.
I'm amazed he's still around.

That's impressive because he sounds like he's 14. "Fags ... suck dick". Real fucking creative Beau.
