Something popped into my mind that could be just a fever dream, but didnt Gamefaqs used to have specialized tags for developers and people who are famous?

I dont know why but this is bothering me if it was real or not. I couldve sworn I remember a pro football player who used to post that had a specialized tag in his username.

Ah okay, but it wasnt strictly for just game developers right? Didnt Taylor Swift or somebody in that caliber use to post on CE?

sorry, I'm not sure.

there are sometimes rumors that a notable celebrity has/has had an account, but idk if any of them (if true) have gone through the process of getting special tags.

I mean to be fair it seemed very rare to see a VIP back in G-FAQs heyday.
