He had his own website and I was a "staff member" although I don't remember actually contributing much to his website, besides an Easter post one time. We would have group AIM chats and he would talk about MFGG. He was a penguin in a military costume. A general, possibly. He liked Cheap Trick, and was very Japanese.
I observed the forums, and decided to join after noticing it was the dominant hot spot, for art, character creation, friendly art exchange, pop culture fascination, especially videogames and Mario. (which was the sprite comic community back in the day). The users were fun and delightful and cool and lots of events to occur.
How and why did you discover MFGG? Were you looking for it, or did it find you?
Japanese? Jinpen is Korean.
I went to school with him, but I actually met him on MFGG before I met him in person.
I was introduced to MFGG by someone else who eventually became a mod. I have been coming here since around 2007. I guess my account info didn't carry over since it says I registered 2022.
I used to come here all the time, but stopped around 2012 or something like that because things got busy. I never created any game content, I pretty much just stayed in the PPP/CCC.
