Just to throw my two cents in.  Tobias (nckx) is probably one of the 
friendliest people
that I have ever met on irc.  He's helped me several times with various random 
issues that
I have had.  He is and has been my main source of help on #guix and other irc 
channels.
I even privately chatted to him in irc, and bared my soul once.  It was a 
pretty personal issue, and he was very kind throughout the 20+ text-based chat. 
 He then
followed up and asked how I was doing a week or two later.  As far as I can 
tell, he's 
a real stand up guy.  He probably spends his free time adopting kittens 
that have been abandoned in sub 0 blizzard weather, though that is speculation 
of course...
