Originally posted by @vendaI would be interested in just seeing a list of who the still active old-timers are.
Good interesting idea.
What about taking it a stage further and creating a veterans tournament for, say the 32 longest active members?
The eventual winner could become rhp veterans champion and have it displayed on his profile.I don't think I'd qualify but I 'd be interested to follow it.

Originally posted by @vendaI understand when the site started out in 2001 it was by donations and many of these people became life long members because they helped get the site started, so they don't pay each year.
I've never come across a lot of these players.
I suspect they're not in clans that I've investigated for challenges when I was leader
Nothing wrong with that of course.
Thank's for the list.
I am sure Russ will correct me if I don't have this accurate.

When we joined, membership was free for everyone.
As membership grew, servers became slow and needed to be upgraded to accomodate the growing number of people.
Some members made voluntary contributions to help pay for the upgrades.
When subscriptions were introduced, many of us also subscribed as well.
All subscribers were known as "pawn stars". Those who had made voluntary contibutions before subscriptions were brought into being were then designated as "original pawn stars".
Original pawn stars can play unlimited games.
We can enter tournaments, but I have not personally tried that for ages so could be wrong about that one.
We cannot create a club or a clan.
We do see advertisements, the same as a non-subscriber.

Originally posted by @russIf I remember correctly there were only a couple hundred 'original pawn stars'.
This is correct, as stated above. I just wanted to reiterate, those guys who helped out early on (original "pawnstars" ) do see ads, so continue to help fund the site even now.
