Monkey was a rotating group of people. Max could have been one of them, I don't know for sure. Max was a lot more cynical and direct than most Monkey stuff. Monkey was also pretty slow-witted in live chat settings. Max was never slow.
But hell, the site has been around 20 years and a lot of it was spent trying to pin down Smelly Monkey. No reason to stop now, I don't need amy more tranny pics up in here.
