Aaj222 started up in Bungie.net just as a simple Halo: CE gamer. He joined ODST Recon, ODST Archives, and that's where he started to get his group roots from. He is an active member in Ninja Academy. He gave up his Commander Rank (Highest Rank in the group) in ODST Archives up to Pilesyourbodies, who now runs the group aaj222 worked so hard to try to keep active. He decided he wasn't helping it much anymore, and even though the group had great legacy behind it, he decided to let it go. He bought Halo 3 on the release date, but didn't start to play it until 3 days later.
