staff mainstays

[eestlinc]

which members are still on staff that were staff when you joined? For me:

Cid
Dr Unne
Loony BoB (i think)
Kawaii Ryûkishi
RSL

You can include Site Staff if you want, but they didn't exist when I joined. Same thing for Recognized Members, although they aren't on staff really.

[Shoeberto]

Cid
Dr Unne
RSL

Pretty sure that's it.

[Yamaneko]

Cid
Dr Unne
Kishi
RSL
BoB (knighted in May of '01, I think)
Daryl (?)

[eestlinc]

Daryl was knighted in the fall of 2001, I believe, about the same time as Matt and clout

[Samuraid]

Hmm, I don't remember exactly...

Cid, Dr Unne, Bleys, Shlupquack, Spatvark, crono_logical, Looney BoB, Kawaii Ryûkishi...

to name some of the staff...at least I think they were all staff.

[RSL]

Cid, Unne and I are the only members that were staff when I joined.

[m4tt]

Gosh.. Cid.. Unne and RSL? I think kishi was modded right when I joined, or right after.

[Jojee]

Umm... I think Sean was the only staff member when I joined o_0 Cos' I remember him asking everyone to ask to be mods in the EZboard.

[edczxcvbnm]

Cid
Dr Unne
RSL

Yeah....that about covers it...although I wonder if I should include Unne as he stepped down once or twice...

Cid
<s>Dr Unne</s>
RSL

I miss Princess <s>USA</s> Usa.

[Del Murder]

Sean
Unne
RSL
BoB
4
Daryl
Kishi
Archie

[Peegee]

I don't get this question. I joined in 2001 so Unne has left/returned, and proto is gone I think. BoB's an admin instead of mod, and some people are now site staff/senior site staff (eternal shiva)

A bunch of admin/staff is gone that I never really learned the names of. Who's 4?

[Del Murder]

Sorry.

4 <- Matt with a 4 <- m4tt <- Matty Pie!

[Yamaneko]

Dude, you should have the same list I do. :D

[Del Murder]

I looked through some staff archives to check my answers, and came across BoB's mod thread which was in Sept. 01. Historic Eyeson moment there.

My join date was June 01 but I didn't start posting until October, so ours <i>should</i> be the same. 4 was around then, Yammy, check the proof for yourself. :D

I'm probably wrong about Archie though.

[Shlup]

I don't remember. It was like... 8 months after Cid's Highwind became EoFF that I joined. Ask Proto; he joined the same day I did.

[Mr. Graves]

Unne
Bleys
Britt, even though I wasn't really around near the end of his term.
Rydia Of Mist
Gau
Shlup
Wyllius
Master Vivi
Big Ogre Umaro

I was around, but I wasn't on staff in June 01. I was modded near the end of september. :p I remember cause I was in Florida with Halan when she told me that Jeff had told her. ;)

And also the thread where Raffles and I were voted in is near the back. :p

Edit: and danny was modded in feb 02. Where did you do your archive checking del? :p

[Agent Proto]

Yes, I did told her. ;)

As for me... um... Cid, RSL, Daryl, Kishi, Yes, I that's all I remember.

[Del Murder]

I must have seen another date because I was checking you and BoB out at the same time. You count because I don't consider myself a full time member until Oct 01.

[Calliope]

I think it was Britt, Asorie, Majken, C2K, Wyllius; probably Unne and Bleys. And Cid. And Knox.

[crono_logical]

I joined on May 2nd 2001, I sure as heck didn't become on staff the same year :p

I guess Cid, Unne, RSL and Kishi, but I'm too lazy to check for sure who was staff back then :p

[Maxico]

How the hell do these things get chosen anyway?

[crono_logical]

How do you choose to stay on staff since someone joined up until now? Don't choose to step down, I suppose :D

[Loony BoB]

RSL and Cid are the only two members to have been on staff non-stop since 1999. Dr Unne was also on staff at the time I joined.

Other staffers at the time of me joining include Coach, IGN64Skanker, Sir Krelian, BOU, Chewbacca, Aeris, Del Snizz and Acmlm, if I remember rightly... not completely sure, though.

I'll post a full list of every staffer in EoFF history once I get home.

[escobert]

Cid
Dr Unne
RSL

Pretty sure that's it.
same I'm pretty sure since we joined around the same time. :D

[chionos]

I think it was Britt, Asorie, Majken, C2K, Wyllius; probably Unne and Bleys. And Cid. And Knox.

I think it was about the same for me. Knox i don't remember, but I'm pretty sure Britt and Asorie were mods when i joined b/c i pissed them off collectively. I wonder if I still have that email.

[Shoeberto]

I was thinking about taking Unne off my list since he did step down and back up a few times. But ohhhh well.

[Kirobaito]

I'm sure Unne, Cid, and RSL were staff at the time, but the only one that I remember is Kishi.

[Burtsplurt]

Cid, Unne, RSL and Kishi.

Others I remember were: Rydia of Mist, Asorie, Britt, Coach, Collector, Wyllius, Cactuar2000, Del Snizz, Master Vivi, BOU.

[bennator]

I have no idea...who was on staff July '01?

[eestlinc]

I don't care who was on staff when you joined that isn't anymore. Britt, Mäjken, Collector, Princess Usa...these people are gone! I CARE ABOUT DEVOTED LONGEVITY!!! Maybe a better questions is "who was on staff when you joined that is still an active member now?"

Cid
Unne
Bleys
BOU (sorta)
Proto
RSL
Kishi
Rocko plays fantasy football so he counts.

If you joined in June 01, which is when I joined, then that's it. :D Unless I forgot someone.

[Dr Unne]

I was a non-admin for probably about as long as I was an admin, so I shouldn't really count.

[Jojee]

I miss those people :(

[Flying Mullet]

EDIT: Put some current names in brackets.
"Parenthesis", not "brackets" silly BoB. :p

[Daryl]

which members are still on staff that were staff when you joined? For me:

I don't recall exactly when I joined. I thought it was the fall of '01, but I distinctly remember spending the summer in #eoff and posting, so it must have been sooner...maybe it was really late May? I think the only ones who were staff then and still are now are Cid, Unne (with step-downs at various times), RSL, and Kishi.

For the record I wasn't Knighted until 12/5/01, not in the fall. ;)
And I was adminned 10/13/03... doesn't feel like that long ago. O_o
I've never taken a leave from staff, but due to finances at various times have gone inactive a bit due to lack of internet at home.

Edit: I think I actually joined in Fall of 2000 but just wasn't active in the chatroom/much on the forums until Summer '01 after my first year of college. I can't remember. This is another time when I wish my laptop, and all my records with dates and such, hadn't been stolen. Not that it really matters but, now I'm curious.

[Raistlin]

Cid. I don't think RSL was modded until after I joined, because we were both modded at about the same time.

[Xander]

I think...everyone that is on staff now except Matt and Dr Unne and Del and Yams! I think.

[Del Murder]

Don't forget Proto, and Spat.

[Loony BoB]

Don't forget Proto, and Spat.
Isn't the question regarding who of the current staff was staff when you joined?

[Xander]

I thought it was staff who were still staff first...!! But okay! Them too!

[Del Murder]

Isn't the question regarding who of the current staff was staff when you joined?
Whoops! Either I forgot or I'm just trying to piss eest off. Take your pick. :)

[Jojee]

hey.... n_n Don't I get a spiffy "Former Staff" thingie under my name? Eh? Eh?

[Raistlin]

hey.... n_n Don't I get a spiffy "Former Staff" thingie under my name? Eh? Eh?
Only if you change your name back to XXXSephirothXXX.

Oh, and you JUST noticed that you didn't have that title? Or did you just remember that you were staff? :P

[escobert]

You arn't cool enough :p

[Jojee]

You guys are soooo mean T_T

[Yamaneko]

What the hell is Raist doing here?

[Jojee]

He follows me ^_^

[crono_logical]

I didn't know Jojo used to be staff :p


More interestingly though, is the question of who was current staff when they joined as staff? :p

[Jojee]

Yay XD two colors! whohoo. *runs off to join the RP so I can have another color*

Thanks Farah or Roobee or whatnot <3

And PS most people don't know I was staff XD Sometimes I even forget. It was only in EZboard ^^

[Del Murder]

More interestingly though, is the question of who was current staff when they joined as staff? :p
All currents except:
<s>Unne</s> RSL Jr
Yams
Xander
4

Plus:
Spat
Proto

Wow that was easy. :D

[Dr Unne]

I think RSL was modded before I was. Raist was as well. Raist doesn't count, for obvious reasons. BOU and Asorie were almost certainly mods before I was too. I'm a relative newbie, from what I remember.

[Agent Proto]

Yeah. Good job Del. :thumb:

[Yamaneko]

All currents except:
<s>Unne</s> RSL Jr
Yams
Xander
4

Wow that was easy. :D
By less than 48 hours. :D

[Raistlin]

Raist doesn't count, for obvious reasons.
>=OOO

Oh, and as to who was staff when I was made staff(that's still around):

Cid, BOU, and RSL(who was modded around the same time I was).

[Denmark]

oh jeez.

Unne, Cid, RSL. those are the only ones I know for sure.

Britt and Kishi are also probable.

I really have no idea as it was late 2000 (the join date in my profile is bogus) and I wasn't that active outside of the FFI-IV forum.

hm. if any really oldschool members could find out when Astos joined, and could somehow change my join date to that, I would be greatly appreciative.

[Jojee]

>=OOO

Oh, and as to who was staff when I was made staff(that's still around):

Cid, BOU, and RSL(who was modded around the same time I was).

And me XD

[Raistlin]

You came after me, twerp.

[Yamaneko]

That's no way to speak to a lady, Wesley.

[Kirkpatrick]

Hmm...Going by eestlinc's list there, it would be:

Cid
Dr. Unne (if he counts with the stepping down and all)
RSL
BOU
Kishi
Proto
Bleys
(and Rocko, since eest counted him).

Daryl misses out by five days, and I don't know if anyone still active was modded between June and November, they'd be on there too...

Wow, I've been lurking here for over three years now.

[Loony BoB]

I didn't know Jojo used to be staff :p


More interestingly though, is the question of who was current staff when they joined as staff? :p
Cid, RSL, Britt, Asorie, Scottie, Citizen Bleys, Rydia of Mist, Cactuar2000, Wyllius, Daryl, Matt, crono_logical, Del Snizz, Master Vivi, Mr Rocko, Agent Proto, Kawaii Ryuukishi, Collector, Cactuar2000. Possibly IGN64skanker and Coach. Maybe a couple of others, I'm not entirely sure though.

[eestlinc]

and don't forget that Raistlin is super secret backdoor staff member.

[Del Murder]
