    This. To be completely honest, GSF has gotten more back than any other group I've seen from IGN...and by a long shot. I didn't think it would be possible for you guys to even get Prime back. It's a testament to the effort Cain, ZF, and others have put in that it's even possible. There are a number of other communities that were promised things (some much larger than GSF), and stuff like Prime isn't even on the backburner for them.

    Right now IGN just has a lot going on, and engineering in particular has a shitload on their plate. Things like the complete restructuring of the boards comes first to them. And that's not even including handling aspects like MyIGN and the wikis.

    My join date has somehow always been correct. But we can say IGN did it for me and that I'm special.

    They forgot to put tartar sauce on my fish filet. I can't eat it like this. :)

    I haven't got my prime yet either, something I have been patiently waiting for.
    I found the reason why. The list on page one does not have my name on it for some reason.
    TheGoatPig, I am dissapointed you didnt spot me missing from the list!
    I'd like to have that prime please Zinfandelicious, I sent you a pvt message. :)

    I'll see what I can do. Your timing is kinda terrible though, because I dunno if/when it'll happen. Details are in my PM reply.

    Thanks, PM replied to. PM also explains why I saw this late. Also provided links to validate being on inclusion list.

    You time and effort well appreciated :)

    Yeah, but I've officially given up. I joined on June 4, 2012, and I'm damn proud of it.

    Who are all these people with high post counts, anyway? Get a life, guys. :)

    Mine seems to be working, at least it says I am a prime member.

    Still would rather have my old name tekthis instead.

    As far as I can see, the Vestibule is a huge +1-fest.

    The only thing that makes me cranky is when they gave some of us our post counts, I already had 1000 posts here. Not only did they take those posts away, but instead of my 10,000 posts from GSF, I ended up with a total of 10 posts. You'd think having screwed it up on me, someone would have fixed it. :)

    You really want them to mess with your post count again after what happened last time?

    I don't really care. I just like pointing out people's failings. It makes me feel better about myself.

    What was your username on Gamespy and are you Dan's list?

    More importantly, have you been contributing to the Gamespy community since the migration? Because I honestly don't know who you are.
