random (SFW) memories from mfgg

[SonicKade2048]

I'm not sure where to begin but hoo boy I have some things to go through.

• Being able to speak to @VinnyVideo about my forum ban about a month(?) earlier than it let up and calmly get it lifted.
  • which, mind you, was a YEAR-LONG ban. i got 100% on the forum warning system during the phpBB era.
    
• Finding the MFGG Discord server for the first time and actually spending time with the community...
  • ...despite being as obnoxious as I was on the forums and causing even more trouble. ouch.
    
• Attempting to start a comic thread that ended horribly. Read at your own risk.
  
• Winning a Happy Heart badge without even knowing.
  
• Being able to learn how to make sprite-based art/pixel art and use it for many different projects
  • namely textures i upload to Roblox but that's beside the point
    
  • also using that skill to make art for a YouTube "album" where it's based on retro video games
    
• Believing that people spoke about me badly while I was banned even if (hopefully) none of it ever happened
  
• Playing UNO in the old MFGG IRC chat. now THAT was fun.
  • ...even if i was kicked out multiple times due to bad behavior.
    
• Complaining that a sprite couldn't be entered into a drawing competition. That was my fault entirely.
  
• I hate to say this, but: Using alt accounts to bypass bans, even if I did it just to apologize to the users.
  
• Being in Hotel Delfino, a sort-of "unofficial" MFGG Discord server if I recall correctly
  • also being able to draw a mascot for it even though it never caught on
    
• Having the guts to admit a secret in the Childhood Crush thread that I ultimately never wanted to reveal as much until then
  
• Having the username KirbyLover2048 for so long and never really wanting to change it
  • despite that i still decided to change it semi-recently, but who knows? i might change it back someday.
    
• Starting a name fad in Club Saturn EX at one point
  
• Being named Best Newcomer one time in 2015 (even if i was incorrectly named as KirbyLover45)
  • i never even knew until i checked the wiki, lol
    
• Being able to share my fascination with the Mario series and be more thorough with my main trio of fan-characters. (here and here)
  • even though the second link leads to an Undertale fan-character I still consider them part of the trio due to lore/roleplay-based reasons
    • i'll make a fully-connected story someday. hopefully.
      
• Realizing that Dudim in the Family exists and loving it very much
  
• Making my own parody of Dudim in the Family (currently)
  
• Wishing I could talk to main site user AwesomeZack after his "disappearance"
  
• Playing some of the Charisma games by Vitiman and also loving those
  

That's probably it for now. I may be missing some "memories", but I've been through a LOT in the past few years of being on MFGG.
