He created [[Rule 8]]<ref>Rule 8 was originally just a bulletin posted below the postform which said "No wojaks or zoomerhumor". On June 6th, kuz made it an official rule, and formed the 8th rule of Heyuri. https://heyuri.net/#news16</ref> as well as several other important parts of Heyuri, he led the development of "[[Kokonotsuba]]", and revived [[Gurochan]]<ref>[https://archive.ph/dvLLc#selection-142.104-909.52 Kuz revived gurochan on January 29th]</ref> and [[Vidlii]]<ref>[https://archive.ph/V1H2x Kuz announces purchase of Vidlii.com] - KNN headline</ref> in 2021 and 2022.

On April 25th, 2022, he stepped down as admin and gave his position to [[Kaguya]]<ref name=":0">OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW by kuz</ref>, saying he had "less time" and "less motivation" but still believed Heyuri had huge potential and was his "favorite website".<ref name=":0" />

==On Heyuri==
<sup>Main article: [[Heyuri]]</sup>
 
Kuz is a important figure on the site, even after his resignation, as the vast majority of Heyuri's lifespan took place under his rule. As of yet, he has been the longest reigning admin, ruling for just over 2 years. Under his initial ownership Heyuris activity went up by 600%, peaking in July<ref>[https://heyuri.net/#news19 NOTE: When this graph was made, july had not finished. It would turn out to be heyuris biggest month]</ref>. He asserts this is mostly because of him inviting [[Partybus|tripfags]] from [[9chan]]<ref>[https://heyuri.net/#news17 Kuz has repeatedly stated this, but he proffesses it shortly before he does it here.]</ref>, although a wide variety of factors are likely contributing to this. During his ownership, Heyuri experienced its "[[golden age]]", a timespan which usually is thought to have lasted from May to August 2020. Shortly after this, due to a schism between him and [[lolico]], Heyuri entered the [[Drama|dark ages]]. 

Kuz first posted to Heyuri (at least publicly) on May 1st, 2020,<ref>https://archive.ph/KEFfH</ref> when he created the historic "tomo thread".
