I think this user is one of the admin accounts used by JM to manage the forum. The fact that it is user #1, it probably does represent a date close to the time that Jonathan started setting up the POI Factory forum.

Well, I don't know for sure ... just a guess based on the first two FAQ's maintained by this user:
User Accounts | What do the badge icons mean?
Forums | How can I send a photo, BMP icon or sound file?

They were using papyrus by then.

Just incase it's Jonathan (Z Admin)

About time someone congratulated Johnathan for his hard work and dedication to this site. We all wouldn't be here if not for him. Thanks

If it is not Johnathan then congratulations to ZAdmin for being here and helping so much.

Yup. You've correctly figured that 'zadmi' is an administrative account. It (and a few others) were created before the web site was publicly accessible.

POI Factory's public anniversary is September 29th. smile

Hmm
