I've also probably stuck with ZFGC the most time. I think I only took a short break between my joining of September 17th, 2003 to today. I also used to post examples, and might start again soon. I also was the youngest member to ever exist on ZFGC, at the age of 7. I also was the first to ever hand in a COPPA form to have to get on here. I've been deleted in the CoNfUsEd_GaMeR hecking incident, and I have made friendships with a whole lot of people. Because of my sudden, and without permission head modding, and a few other things not relating to me, TRM was impeached and exiled from the admins. Is that not enough?
Apparently not.
It's not about how long you've been around, or how many friends you have, or how old you were when you joined the forum, or whether or not your accounts been deleted, or whether or not you were involved in the whole TRM thing.
Just FYI: Been a member on the forum since 2004 (March, I believe it was, but at some point, my account was pruned, I re-joined in July) at the grand old age of 14. I took lots of "breaks", deleted my own account frequently, was NOT banned in the CG "incident", didn't - and still haven't - make many friends. I was banned by TRM numerous times (four, was it?) as well as by other mods/admins, and I'm probably the single most banned member (who was not ban evading at the time). I WAS involved in the TRM "impeachment", and I enjoyed a brief stint as a mod.
And I think it's only the last part which means I get the "friend" status.
