How long have you been around eGO?

Love these history style threads. I started playing jailbreak as a literal child when CSGO was still new. I came from the merger in from Prestige Gaming, which if I'm not mistaken was a breakoff community from this one to start with. Beginning to play eGO CS servers in 2017-2018, I was banned in 2019 for a multitude of reasons as a troubled player at the time. I successfully appealed in February 2025 and by July I was leadership through sheer activity and dedication to trying out something new for minecraft. Which didn't work out but we tried!!

I come back for egos punk free gaming mentality, and the way our community is structured. These things have kept me around for the long run.
 
Officially became a member on my 13th birthday in July of 2015. I was gaming on eGO servers way before that. Both on Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Minecraft.

Received my eG by September of 2015.
Received my eGO by October of 2015.
Was an Advisor (now called Manager) before my 16th birthday in June/July of 2017.
 
Officially 2018, but I first started playing the pg server in 2016

Played Dust_2 server on and off since 2014. Dust became my main and refuge in 2017. Officially became a member in 2019. Only the demands of a growing family have pulled me away, but I cherish the phenomenal memories, people, and friends I've made on Dust_2 and Media Team. They are all sooo amazing.

I stand as their grateful and loyal advocate. 💕

Yoo same pretty much. I started on pG in 2017 and joined eGO during the merge.

So:
  • since pG will be 9 years in May
  • and since the merge will be 8 years in May.
But, of course I did step away for about 3 years and just returned last year full time.

I've compiled my entire history in this document:

We had to fight to get you that manager position lol. I did promise them it would be worth making it happen (it was). We even had one of our other managers run to the bathroom on what i believe was a date so he could join TS to be there for the promotion. Fun times.
 
This post is slightly inspired by the History of eGO post from last month.

I applied and got accepted on January 16, 2011, and was granted my =(e)=™ that day. I included the trademark symbol because we were still using that with our names as we pushed to trademark our branding. However, I've been around the community in some capacity for a year or so prior to joining. I used to play our Dust server (de_dust, not 2) and Jail, even though I wasn't good at the mode. All of this was done on my eMachine computer with 15-30 average fps.

With that said, I extend the question to you: how long have you been around eGO? This isn't just for members and admins. If you aren't a member, we're still curious to know!
You're old.
