User:Arav the Undersith/Whats going down

My SWFanon History
First off, I can't believe I am writing this, but here it goes. My SWF autobiography.

It all started back in the 2007's. My hair was short and my computer was slow and everybody was looking for time to waste. I found the site while looking at Wikipedia. I was looking at comic book characters from the Star Wars Expanded Universe (they had one?) when I stumbled on Wookieepedia, where cannon was law. I started editing my own articles, misspellings here and there. Soon I was not seen as welcome by always cynical administrators (my views then). They said either stop editing the wiki or move to our convict colony Star Wars Fanon, where you can roll around in mud (he said fantacy :P). I made my groove early in IP mode. Soon I found out you could have accounts! Just a heads up, I only started using the internet in 2006. I made my first account, General Arav. I made countless planet articles, uploaded tons of unsourced images without care. Then who should I find, but the big, the bad, the squishy, Victor, who I still call today Squishy Vic, just to get rid of that worker boss relationship (Arav, working?). He helped me and helped me till I practically drove him insane and did not sleep for nights to put up with me. So for three months I did my thing, made my place, wrote some shIt articles. But I slipped up, I was an illegal alien, that's right an ara....underage user. 12 that is. So stupidly I put my date of birth on my SuPeR 1337 uber user page. So I was banned. Now here is the incriminating fact, I could not stand for one minute being banned from a site I so much loved. So I created Dark Knight, a sockpuppet account, pretending to be General Arav's mate to still edit. Squishy Vic believed me, which now I believe he does not, even when I became Arav the Undersith. So I apologize to Victor and all those users who waited their term, but I am just proud now to say I broke the rules (harmless I know) but was mature enough to say it. So till 2008 I was Dark Knight till my General Arav ban was over. I forgot my password so I made Arav the Undersith. Arav was a fictional character I made long ago on KotOR 1 and Undersith is my Xbox Live account name, standing for being the underdog sith. I was soon welcomed back by Victor and with luck as well, as Brandon did not touch up the outdated account policies.

I was involved with many things. I helped in the purge of non-categorical articles with Victor, I loved to help the new users, I made frequent signatures like my role model Victor, I don't know what these new users see in Brandon. I soon made friends with users like Darth tom, who is now Thomas Rattium. He was like a good mate to me, always putting up with my wacky ideas and misspellings. But he stuck by me, maybe because he needed a friend (he's a communist you know) or maybe he saw something greater in myself. Soon he created the Project Cruentus, which was a blast for me, I was treated equally as a writer and as a user. Members talked non stop, all hours of the day, about little details. When the project was complete, I was just happy to have my name in the recognized helpers. I bet most of you have known me for my friendliness or my constant signature in forums. I am not really a writer, but a people person, I love the social demention of this site, giving my views, chatting to people on the IRC and influencing decisions with the click of a signature button. I have more edit counts for user talk pages than articles, and forums is right up their in my statistics as well. I am not the most all rounded user I would like to me, but to see that some of my ideas has been incorporated with the site is amazing.

I was ridiculed for awhile in my early days of the site, but now, I now fully believe I am a respected user of the site community, and so is everybody on this site. You all have a purpose to change, create, customize and be one hell of a user. I even at one point was seen to be a future administrator of the site, not for my writing skills, but my dedication to the common user, the time I put into helping the big and little guy (admin to common user, all the same rights, different buttons and time allowances) and my ambition to change my maturity just for website. Potential they saw in me, Brandon and Tom mainly. Now I think it is all too late. I am getting older, Year Ten Exams are around the corner next year and life is a big thing (I have realized). I would love to be an admin, but I am seeing myself inadequate for the job as I am not as devoted as other users. But if I was ever offered, I would go for it. I can help new users, I can give my help to admins when I have the chance, I can help with social probelms, and the vandalism of the site, and talk to the individual in the IRC about their actions and see if we can change a few things.

I hope you have enjoyed the page, but just to let you know, I do actually check the site almost daily, forums, talk pages, everything.
