What's your MGSF story?

[Bread]

Honestly, I wouldn't even consider myself a diehard Metal Gear fan. I like the series sure, but I joined in 2008 off the back of a 2 week obsession with MGS4 that disappeared as quickly as it started. I was joining a lot of forums around that time for a variety of games and other interests I had, but the community at MGSF felt a little more communal than most other forums I was a member of. Felt less like talking to enigmatic, faceless strangers and more like talking to actual people that I would talk to IRL.

Honestly, I was probably suckered in by Gene when he offered me my first Org invite with Foxhound. The idea of super secret, exclusive clubs that rivalled the other super secret, exclusive clubs appealed to me a lot back then.
