Hello and welcome back Cutter!
I believe the one you were looking for was Xabob. Xabober sounds like one of Baron-Sprite's undead necro pets... then again Xabob might be Baron's b**ch so I guess it's all the same
(BTW, Xabob is kinda temporarily banned from forums right till the end of the week so don't expect a response from him. See the Wake n Bake thread in Off Topic for why)
Melwin is still around, though not a forum admin, and he pretty much keeps in #wr and rarely steps outside that channel. LE took a fancy to EQ2 and isn't active here anymore.
