I was in the original chart where I was described as being Lawful Neutral and being fluent in anything Equestria Girls. I don't remember where the chart is so you might have to go and look for it.

No worries. If you had been skipped out on it I was going to offer you a spot in the new one in case you missed out. But if you were already in one then that's great!  It's lovely to continue the tradition.  I'm sure it's saved somewhere in PV storage. I will leave room now for people ask staffers questions. Thanks for chatting! x3

Have you ever taken part in MLP trivia challenges or any other "team games" during staff meetings to strengthen friendship bonds?

...Who, me? 
My favorites so far include "Make a meme about the forums", "Post A Quote From Your Day, Without Any Context", and the various games in the Forum Games area. 
As for trivia games, I don't think I have, but I have hosted trivia games in my status updates before.

To any and all: Why did you decide to become a moderator?

I honestly just liked the idea of helping out.

@Cash In What’s your recommended boss order for Mega Man X

From memory, I always start out with Chill Penguin, but after that I don't have a particular order!

Have any of you had any succulent Chinese meals lately? 

Tried to a few weeks ago, but I got arrested in the middle of my meal. Credit to the officers, they knew their judo quite well..

If you could be a friend of any pony/creature from any generation of MLP who would you choose and why? 

Probably @Discord The Overlord because you'd never be bored while you're in his company. I'll pass on the chocolate milk rain though.

Where did the name "Cash In" come from?

I'm pretty sure I've asked this somewhere before so I'm sorry if you've already told me. 🤔

It's alright! I don't mind telling the story again anyways. I've mentioned it here or there but never in a super public thread.

CashIn - the two words together - is almost an anagram of my first name, with only one letter being off. I got it in high school, because for some reason people always used to owe me money. We used to play ball games in our break time and I always bought the titular ball. Problem is, people used to end up losing it all the time and then they'd promise to pay me back for it.

Ironically enough, I've never been a stickler for cash. I knew the risk, so while I didn't complain when people paid me back, I never expected it. Jokes were soon made, because it became such a regular occurrence and as a result, the "CashIn" nickname came up.

I rolled my eyes at it for a long time, but eventually I signed up for a website and I don't remember if it was here or another forum, but I needed a username. I must've been having an off day, because I was unable to come up with one. I got a bit frustrated, until a little voice in my head started saying "Well, why don't you use that name" and as they say, the rest is history.
